Knowing l this and remembering it may save 1 many people much trouble in meeting l persons with whom they wish -tc l transast business.
 l Putnam's people, too, will be called upon to keep in mind that train sched- l ules will remain as at present and that all trains will be an hour late, accord 1 ing to Putnam's time, and possibly
