'Girard' Shows Comparison
of Some Compensations

Much has been said about railroad
salaries. Here is what "Girard" has
to say in the Philadelphia Press,
showing the comparison of compen-
sation for various life occupations:
Hundreds of railroad engineers
earn larger pay than the governors
of eleven states.
Each of those states gives it's
chief executive a salary of from
$4,000 to $4,000, Nebraska paying
the smallest sum.
But General Manager Richard
L. O'Donnell, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad. has given exact figures
which show that the pay of a great
army of engineers runs from $3,-
500 to well above $4,000.
Ninety per cent. of the profess
sors in Americas 500 colleges are
paid less than the engineers.
The engineers receive about four
times the average yearly wages of
Pennsylvania men public school
teachers.
Their pay is four times that of
American preachers and is far above
the average income of our 100, 900
doctors and the larger army of
American lawyers.
Not one farmer in ten on Penn
sylvania's 222,0O0 farms earns as
much as the engineers on the largest
railroad.
And as one Congressman OBJ
served, no Army officer in the world
up to the grade of colonel is so
well paid as an American railway
engineer"

Jim and Tom that / was on my way
Val smiled with lifted brows. Her
manner held me off from any dis
cussion of the subject for which
Lane hal summoned me.
The taxi came before he had sue
ceeded in getting Toms telephone
to answer. l started at once. At
Toms door l dismissed my taxi and
hurried up the steps eagerly. But
rang the bell vainly for a minute
or two. Then his old housekeeper
appeared, and told me that she'd
been struggling for three-quarters
of an hour to locate me by tele-
phone, since Mr.. Tom and my hus-
band had been compelled to hurry
on to the Walgrave and wanted me
to join t''em there.
"Oh, dear" l said wearily. "I'Ve
been on my husbands trail for al
most two hours. Are you sure I'll
find him at the hotel?"
Surely. dearie, I'd insist on your
coming in and having a bite with
an old woman. Would a cup of tea
first brace you up?"
I'D better not stop. But thank
you just the same. There's taxi
now. I'll run for it," 1 cried hailing
a passing cab eagerly. Goodbye"
The door closed and I ran down
the long flight of brown sandstone
steps to the taxi 1 had summoned.
AS l got to the last step my ankle
turned under me with a tearing
wrenching stab of pain. Every
thing went black for a minute and
a feeling of horrible illness as
sailed me. I sank down on the low
est step and the driver-his face
really sympathetic and concerned
ran to my side.
Hurt yourself, lady? Shall I
help you back into the house," he
asked.
l looked at the long. fidht of
steps that seemed to tower above
me and l shook my head.
Help me into the taxi and drive
me. to the nearest drug store. I'll
have some aromatic spirits of am
monia and then 1 must go to the.
Walgrave,". said.
But soon my ankle began pain
ing me so dreadfully that l real
lied I'd have to go home and sum-
telephone the hotel and have Jim
PACED. Irritable and faint from
pain, l began to feel abused and in
tensely irritated with Jim for not
stopping anywhere long enough for
me to catch up with him.
So, after I'd had my aromatic, I
told the taxi-driver to take me
home. And with a great feeling of
relief I embarked in the elevator
and rode to my own floor. The car
jerked and stopped spasmodically
several times on the way up and
so l was particularly delighted
when l could get out at my own
door at last. Automatically
reached for my key. And as auto
matically l realized that l hadn't
1T with me. When l had come home
an hour or so before, I'd been COM
PEELED to ring the bell. So l rang
it now. Then I remembered l had
told Bertha to take Angy to the
movies.
BY now my ankle was paining
dreadfully. There was only one
thing to do. Summon the elevator.
/ rang for it and after long min
utes, it dreaked to my floor, and
stopped. A passenger stepped out,
and then suddenly the car slid down
the shaft with a long, low, breath
taking thud.
