and a large number OF people in this
vicinity took advantage OF the splen-
did opportunity to view the compre-
hensive exhibit Of war trophies.
weapons and engines Of destruction.
When the train arrived in the city it
was greeted with the blowing of
whistles and the ringing Of bells. and
this demonstration Of welcome was
answered by the firing Of the trains
own aerial bombs. A large crowd
had gathered to meet the train and
cheers were given the Yankee vet
Grams as they leaned over the rails Of
the flat cars.
The many battle SCARED relics Of
the world war were exhibited on four
cars and the crowd passed single file
through the cars. Among the tro-
phies exhibited, won on the fields Of
France by our brave lads, were huge
German shells, trench mortars. depth
bombs, French ammunition carriages.
trench heaters. captured German
guns, besides a Lewis machine gun.
a Browning automatic, and the cell
ebrated French IS gun, the gun that
won the war, which is a marvel in its
range and its accuracy and also in the
taking up Of recoil. Perhaps the most
interesting part Of the collection was
contained in the baggage car. where
besides the two machine guns men
toned before, there were gas masks
trench knives, bayonets, helmets
pistols and all sorts OF rifles-grim
messengers Of death, the sight OF
which makes a person look upon our
brave boys with a new feeling OF
pride and veneration and seems to
, bring the war closer home.
AS the people left the last car OF
the train they were given pamphlets

train were many posters urging
people to buy Victory bonds and

A Few Brief Remarks on a
Pet Railway Theory
By EARL GOODWIN,

seems species of cruelty to subject and women
egnt or ten hours OF hard work and then add to that two
hours OF crowdng and pushing and indecent herng in
street cars. Such condition does not bring and
women down town in cheerful spirit to work. and it does
not get them back home in any frame of mind TO enjoy
the comfort of firesde and family
Also 1t seems queer that street railroad companies
seem 70 nave dsregarded utterly the economic advantages
to town that accrue where the traffic congestion
problem is settled.
The main question the question of the greatest benefit
to the PUBLIC, seems to have been lost entirely
The underlying policy is one of paying dividends
whether the stock be waeed not whether the road be
EARNING or not whether the PUBLIC is getting service
not -
Some day wise generation will take the street cars
and them for the PUBLIC and the service of the roads
ayers of the street railways would regard the PUBLIC 9s
per cent and the stockholders per cent the stockholders
in the end would be getting than they are now.
SERVICE would mean civic development more suburbs
more houses, bigger populations and more fares

while you seek 1t for its own sake.
1t isn't that you fall in love with
this stimulating, tormenting. fear
fully upsetting person. But you
want to be near her as much as
possible. You want to be teased
and agitated and upset. You want
to enlarge your knowledge by find
ing out all the ways in which this
provocative young creature is diff
ferent from the good, sensible
girls you've known hitherto. You
want to get everything possible
out Of this delirious experience
you're undergoing. You want to
drain it dry.
The "yamp's" Victim Released.
And some day you find that this is
just what has happened.
The vamp doesn't hold you any
longer You've learned all she
can teach you. The measles are
over.
And it is just at this point, of
course, that the youth who has
had his season with the woman
who excites, naturally yearns for
the woman who soothes.
The girl who has a big heart
and no vanity and wouldn't hurt
his feelings for the world, the
girl who believes in him and
longs to be useful to him, now
has her supreme opportunity. If
she chances to be within range,
and if she takes the trouble to be
gentle and comforting and kind,
the lacerated, fever-smitten VIC
tim of the vamp will probably
fall in love with her in a month.
He'll feel so safe in falling in
love with a girl Of this type.
