part OF the funds Which are needed
each year in greater and greater
amount as the city grows and the
work extends.

The Train Problem

To tie Editor oJ the Evening Public Lsd0er:
sir-Replytns 70 the problem Of the two
men and the train: The train moves ss
yards and the distance the nrst man travels
IN 10 seconds; SO yards equals 26< feet In
10 seconds. multiplied by o equals 1884 feet
In l minute multiplied by 20 would equal
laI $50 feet. divided by $3.50 feet would
equal miles In 20 minutes. to which the
distance the man has travelled in the same
time must be added.
The first mar travelling at the rate OF I
miles an hour would travel at the rate OF
one-third OF mile In minutes. aIti In 20
minutes he would have Travelled Ia miles,
which added to the miles. would equal
miles that the train travels In 20 minutes.
Deduct Ia from l-3 and you have 0
miles which would be the distance tho men
would be apart when the train reaches the
second man,
The second man is travelling nine-tenths as
fast as the first man and would lose one
tenth OF a mile Cor 62s feeD In every mile
that the FIRST man travelled In 10 miles
the second man would lose ono mile. To
lose the remaining five miles tho hrst man
would travel 30 miles more. which would
equal so miles that the frst man travelled
from the time that tho train reached tho
second man until the first man overlook the
second.
II the first man travels at the rate OF
four miles an hour he would travel 90 miles
in 10 hours. The train going at tho rate
OF 7l-8 miles in 20 minutes would travel
90 miles an hour: multiplied BY IL hours
would equal 33O miles, from which deduct 40
miles that the 'rst man Travelled to oVertake
the second and the remainder would he
270 miles. which would be the distance ths
train would be ahead whom the second man
