where he is matters will go on

so much Of his time to the aspect OF
his job that appeals most strongly to
his nature-that of making the men
and women who patronize the Penn
sylvania believe that the whole or
ganization of the road has no other
thought but the convenience of every
individual traveller.
H. E. Iahnke. assistant station mas
ter in charge of the ONCE, is one OF
Egan's assistants, who Is largely re-
sponsible for his chiefs freedom of
action. Jahnke handles the paper
work and receives the thousand Of
inquiries and the occasional complaint
that comes to the station masters Of
flee. Like Egan, he too has a large
acquaintance and AN infallible mem

Aid the Humble Traveller

crowded terminal. Some Of the most
amusing experiences he relates are
based on this fact.
Not many weeks ago Egan was
chatting with two acquaintance wait
ing for train when he spied ex.
President Taft walking across the
concourse toward the gates. Excusing
himself. the station master greeted Mr..
Taft and escorted him 10 his tram.
When he returned one of the men said:
who was that big fellow, Bill?" And
upon inquiry Egan discovered that
both men had voted for Taft In 1908
and again in 1912.
A Roosevelt story.
Even President Roosevelt whose
face and figure might be supposed to
be familiar to the average Ameri-
can, has often passed through the
terminal on his way to Oyster Bay
without recognition. Egan tells Of the
ex-President's wandering about the
building one afternoon when he spent
more than half an hour mingling with
the crowds without recognition.
Roosevelt entered the station on foot
from Seventh avenue. AS he turned
in from the street his attention was
arrested by knot of people who were
reading the inscription on the bronze
tablets erected by the directors to
commemorate the executives, engi-
neers and contractors who had a part
in the construction of the terminal and
tunnels. The Colonel adjusted his
glasses and read the long list through.
Then he walked down the arcade
which leads to the main waiting room
and ticket offices. The lighted window
of a book shop caught his eve and he
stopped a moment to examine the
titles. displayed. A recent publication
excited his interest and he entered,
asked for copy and thrust 1t into his
cvercoat pocket without waiting for
the salesman to wrap it. Then he went
down the flight of steps which lead to
the waiting room. At the bottom he
stopped and examined carefully the
statue of former President Cassatt of
the Pennsylvania, whose courage,
foresight and ability made possible the
extension of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road into New York city," as the in
scription upon it reads.
The railroad man had been a MEM
Der of more than one conference at
the White House during Roosevelt's
Administration, and the Colonel ex-
amined the statue with the eye Of a
man who has not only known the sub
ject but knows something of art as
well. Finally a glance at the clock
told him that it was time to move
toward the Long Island platforms. At
the news stand. however, he stopped
a moment to purchase the afternoon
papers. He also bought a cake of
The sun., 1919-08-03

chocolate, which ne bestowed on a
little girl who was gazing wistfully at
the big pile of sweets, and started to
walk toward the gates.
AS he reached the barrier he re-
membered the papers which he laid
down while he spoke to the child.
He hurried back and picked them up.
The clock marked within a minute or
two of train time and the Colonel ran
across the platform and through the
gate just before 1t slammed shut. He
had been In the station for half an
hour, Egan says, and not a single
traveller had bestowed second glance
on the foremost private citizen of the
republic.
President Wilson, too, when he was
Governor of New Jersey and well
known public character, having just
performed the astounding feat of step
pirg from a PROFESSIONAL chair at
Pr lceton to the Executive Mansion at
Trenton, often visited New York, and
the lunch counter in the Pennsylvania
terminal was one of his favorite re-
sorts. Almost invariably he perched
himself on a stool there, either just
Trenton train on his departure. In
the score or more occasions when he
dined democratically at the counter no
one ever seemed to recognize him ex-
cept the negro attendants, who get to
know habitual customers.
Egan's methods of handling his
work are as original as his personality.
There Is q mass Of routine matter
which passes through his office for
signature and record. 1t would be easy
for q man less determined to carry out
his own plans to lose himself In the
consideration Of details. which are apt
to grow in seeming importance as an
executives attention is focused upon
them.
A ubiquitous Human.

The entrance is very srtistically
planned, being Of white stone against
the red and brown background OF the
house. About a dozen steps in circu-
lar rotation lead upward to the door

marble overhead supported by straight
lined columns, around which vines
have wound their way. There is quite
a long gravel walk to this abode. with
huge artificial plants on either side,
and the surrounding lawns are beds Of
exquisitely laid out flowers of every
description.

arranged as to resemble a bouquet of

Climax of all this beauty Is the CEN

gardens are open to visitors between
April and September inolusive.) 1t
seems as IL nowhere could so much
combined beauty be imagined. Every
POSSIBLE flower is on view and at Its
best advantage.
Before leaving the gardens three
marble statues standing on a small
terrace overlooking the southwest ex-
panse OF the city call for notice.
White marble slabs form benches upon
which to rest, and are richly en-
graved with images and flowers. The
benches number about ten, placed

placing Of arriving and deperting
trains as well as any Of the stan,
and have become almost a part Of the
station crew.
Not that Egan Is a professional LION
hunter. He likes the acquaintance Of
famous men-he frankly admits It
because men who have accomplished
something in the world generally have
something interesting to tell the sort
Of men who can draw them out. Be-
sides 1t is only human nature to be a
little vain of the acquaintance of men
and women whose names and per-
sonalities are known and discussed
wherever newspapers are read. But
there is another class of the travelling
public for whom Egap has a special
weakness. The blind. the aged, and
women with small children get all the
consideration possible from everybody
on the terminal and If they come into
the station masters range Of vision he
takes care that they get his personal
assistance.
A former railroad president, now a
prominent official Of the Federal Ad-
ministration. tells Of Egan breaking
off conversation to help and direct
an immigrant and her children. whom
he sent toward their train with a
porter to carry the shapeless bundles
and a word OF encouragement for the
strangers bewildered with the sights
and sounds of a new land. Egan would
never tell that story himself-not be-
cause he is overmodest but because 1t

done.
The $4,000 kiss.
The stories that he does tell are
mostly of the amusing incidents that
happen almost daily. One of them Is
the story of the s3S,000 kiss That
incident has to do with an immigrant
too, or rather with a band of them
who carelessly left a -four sack con-
