Improved Service
Announced by
Oregon Short Line

Fred H. Knickbocker, general
superintendent of the Oregon Short
Line Railroad company, has agreed
to make the posting of the arrival
and departure of trains more eff
cient service for the travelling public,
according to announcement made
Saturday by Everett NJ. Sweeley,
state public utilities commissioner.
Complaints have been made
against the Oregon Short Line be-
cause of improper announcements of
arriving and departing trains. Sta
ton agents, it is claimed, are not
notified long enough in advance in
case a train is late to efficiently
serve the public. go
Mr.. Sweeley said that a general
order was to be issued by the utili-
ties commission which will make it
mandatory upon railroad operators
to give the public satisfactory infor-
nation within reasonable time Of the
scheduled departure or arrival Of
trains, The railroad company's rule
on this service IL lived up to will
provide adequate service but railroad
companies have not been able to en-
force the rule. BY an order the
utility commission can make the en-
ployes responsible for their derelic-
ton even tho the railroad can not,

TRAINED OR UNFRAMED?

A number of years ago my atten.
ton was drawn to two men Of al
most the same age, just under for
ty. ...,.
One Of these men had by his own
endeavors obtained a college educa-
ton, taught a few years, and was
cashier Of a bank in a prosperous
little village. He was then building
himself nice little home. He had
a happy family and old age held no
terrors for him. Z
The other man, although superior
in physical endowments and child
hood advantages, had no education
He was mixing mortar for the bank
er's house. Such was his life's work.
Being frugal and industrious he had
accumulated a bank account of two
thousand dollars. He had no home,
and past the prime of life, he dread
ed the approach of old age when he
would no longer be able to w,rk
with his hands. The tenor of his
conversation was regret that he had
not taken advantage of his oppor-
tunities to secure an education.

fer for yours?

Amalgamated Sold Right
The Amalgamated Sugar company,
which is controlled and operated by
the same interests or parties who
control the Great Western Sugar
company Of Denver, is the only 9th
or company operating in the inter-
mountain country in addition to the
companies above mentioned and the
Utah-Idaho Sugar company. The
Amalgamated did not raise its price
like the Utah-Idaho Sugar company
did, being satisfied with the price
allowed by the government at the
time the Utah-Idaho company raised
it's price, which then allowed about
50 per cent profit over the cost
stated above.
Therefore, 1t would appear the
Utah-Idaho Sugar company stands
alone in this sugar profiteering bust
ness, and it is not being singled out
and made to bear the sins of all the
other companies. There seems to be
no good reason for the company's Of
