BE OPTOMISTIC

We know that under existing con-
ditions-dry weather, the low price
of all farm products, poor crop pros
poets, stagnated business and thor
oughly chilled spirits-it is diff
cult matter to appear optomistic,
and yet, this is just what we have
got to do, else we lose our courage
entirely. Once courage is lost all is
lost.
A mighty good plan, then, is to
quit talking about the dry weather.
Why not talk about those things that
make for better citizenship, those
things that count for something in
life?
How about your Sunday school
and your church house. What are
YOU doing as citizen, husband or
father toward making your Sunday
school what it should be? Did you
90 to hear the preacher last Sunday?
Even if you do not feel that you can
nav him (mind you, we say pay,
not "contribute,"- much as you
feel that his services ent.tle him to
receive from you, your presence al
each service will go long way to-
wards keeping his sheep in the
straight and narrow path. A sad
day it would be for US and our coun-
try if our ministers of the gospel be-
came discouraged, down-hearted and
quit. as most of US seem to have
done.
Then, there is your school. What
are YOU dong as a citizen, husband
or father towards making the COM
ing term the very best ever taught
in your community? Don't the old
building need few minor repairs!
Do the school grounds look as at
tractive as they should? Don't that
old snag of tree which was blown
down right near the school house
door several years ago, need to be
removed And wouldn't this be
mighty good time to get half a dozen
of the neighbors together and put
in q day removing it and otherwise
improving the looks of the school
yard,
Our roadsL They always need
some attention. Now is the best time
Of the whole year to plan campaign
for road improvement. True, little
work can be done just now on the
public roads, but committee might
be named and certain improvements
MANNED and working days designat-
ed.
o, most anything to keep us from
sitting around and about talking
about the dry weather, the low price
Of things, slow merchandising, and
so on.
Turn the picture over. The other
side may be brighter-and for the
Lords sake, remember, no one was
ever known to starve to death in this
country.

How many people get their own

go around all summer in the intense
heat burning up energy, working hard
all day and sometimes lying awake
nights sleepless in the heat.
Winter comes along. 1t catches
many people totally u~nprepared

healthy and strong, we often leave
too much to chance.
But not everybody. Nowadays
people are learning. They know this
matter of enjoying good health is a
thing they can help control. If you
live right, eat right, get plenty of
sleep, breathe fresh air and keep
your blood in good condition, you will
be all right.
1t is so simple. If you feeAa little

master. No man can be his real

when in debt. / used to believe that
nearly everybody else was against
the farmer, but that is not so. The
farmer is to blame for his W
troubles. We as a class depend too
much on what happens without max
ing much effort to control what is
happening. The farmer has much
the advantage of other businesses.
We don't have any 8 hour men; cur
folks work from daylight until dark.
We can grow in farm products, chick
ems, eggs, beef, mutton, kid, pork
and milk and butter, eighty per cent
of what it costs US to live. We have
better roads, better schools and u

doors-but, takes, taxes, that's worse
than ever. They say that these
taxes are for the benefits we are
having, for our good roads, better

er not have quite SO many of those
advantages if they are to cost so

Illinois Central Reviews TRANSPORTATION
Conditions of 1920

The railways of the United States have just emerged from a year of
unprecedented difficulties: With a transportation plant unequal to the
Justly proud, and in which forwardlooking citizens generally NAV we'll
feel a pride
Commercial requirements were the greatest in history. Because of
a strike at the coal mines in November and December. 1918. at the he
ply OF coal. Other commodities. in great quantities also awaited ship
ment. A flood of traffic was turned upon the railways.
The railways had suffered from the war. New equipment had not
been purchased in sufficient quantities. Old equipment had not heen
adequately maintained. Cars had been scattered broadcast over the
country. The building of yards and sdings and new mileage had been
interrupted. Adequate rates had not been assured. Wages, material
osts n X mad mounted Ito new levels. A switchman's strike. tying
up terminal freight movement occurred in April and made its lingering
effects felt throughout the early summer.
Facing the great demands for transportation, with many obstacles
against them, the railways accomplished a task that seens almost mrsN
culous. The danger of a coal famine was averted. Necessary traffic
was moved. A steadily increasing record of efficiency was built up.
~ Dy wee ana month by month, exceeding all previous records of
september. Late III November a ca surplus actually existed. The sup-
ply transportation now exceeds the demand for the first time in five
years
Many predict a business revival early in 1921, al optimism that
seems t0getner Justfed. If the predicted business revival material
ICES, it will make a heavy demand upon the railways. We believe the
always VII o. oil to move a larger business than they moved during
Ola equipment will be in better condition. Railway workers are deve-
1plng n Old spirit of loyalty and efficiency, conceived upon a new
a0unoatlon O. pubic service. More adequate rates have been granted.
Inc pubic is taking a more intelligent interest in railway affairs. Les
sons IN cooperation have been learned.
1T is well, however, for those who will make heavy demands anon
ua1ncd during the year to anticipate those demands a early IS possible.
them. Material which can be transported now in anticipation of later
demands should be transported, in order to distribute the traffic burden
more evenly.
We of the Illinois Central System r proud to have shared in the
1871 record OF the railways of the country. Our best efforts will now be
put forth in helping to make the record of the railways for 1921
more creditable than was the record Of 1920.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.
