REALLY WOULDN'T Do AT ALL
Blunt Railroad Owner Simply Couldn't
See Any Sense in an Automatic
Signal System.

A certain western railroad which
has not yet been ''reOrganized' is still
owned and operated by the blunt
spoken old lumberman who built it.
Last year, after particularly severe
accident upon 1t, the agent for an au-
tomato block signal system called and
tried to get a contract for inStalla-
ton.
The old luInberman examined the
device attentively and seemed much
interested.
Your chief engineer recommends II
highly" said the agent. "He told me
to use his name with you and he
would see you later"
WELL" said the lumberman, 81
guess 1t is pretty machine. like
to sit here and see ii work myself, its
so ALFRED sure But come to using
1t on my road-now, young Teller, I've
been running railroad some longer'n
you and I'll tell you something.
Accidents is bound to happen about
once in so often, no matter what you
do. I've got three brakemen in Jail
now and I've sworn to hang the next
one, and the public is pretty well salts
fed. But what satisfaction is 1t going
to be for any one if go to work and
hang an old automatic machineT--

WHY:
The Earth Is Not Flooded With
Light at Night

Why is tie sky not illuminated at
night as II is during the day? The
space i'm which the earth moves is con-
sun; why, then, is not the sky at
night as bright as in the day except
for round shadow cast by the earth?
Ought not the sky outside that sha-
dow, visible in wide expanses, to be
as bright, sunshiny blue In clear
weather as during the day?
This Is a question that has often
been asked, but the explanation is
simple.
Rays Of light, unless they enter the
eye, are not visible. Therefore the
rays from the sun that pass by the
earth are not visible to anybody on
the earth unless they are reflected
back into the eye from some opaque
substance in the sky, as the moon,
acting like a mirror.
In addition to the direct rays of the
sun the earth is illuminated by rays
that would pass 1t by were 1t not for
the myriad particles Of dust and mois-
ture that are in the atmosphere. These
rays are reflected to the earth from
the particles. If the atmosphere en-
velOping the earth were several mil
Hon miles deep instead of only 40 to
30, which is mere film in comparison
with the earth's size, the twilight
which is caused by the light reflected
from II for short time after the
sun drops behind the horizon would
last far into the night.
1t Is reflected light from the at
mosphere that gives the sky its beauti-
ful blue color. When the particles
of dust and moisture in the air are
large enough they reflect the light
completely. When they are sufficiently
small the light waves are broken up
and parts of them scattered and the
component of light that is easiest
broken Off and scattered in this man.

ONLY FEW DAYS OF SUNSHINE
Composers of Popular Ditties Seldom

Seem to Give Up Hope.

Tin Pan alley, like its lyrical re-
trains, has its joys and sorrows. OBJ
scure youths with a flair for popular
ditties are suddenly shOwered with
gold. Broadway welcomes them with
open arms. In the dazzling new world
the cleaners of the White Way are
soon on the trail, o. o. Mcintyre
writes in the New York Mail.
Four composers whose tunes were
whiStled In every city and hamlet
have in the last few days fallen upon
evil days. Still anOther-the compOs-
er of 30 successful songs-died friend
less in the charity ward of the bleak
Blackwell island charity hospital
1t is possible to count on the fingers
of one hand song writer's who have
made fortunes and kept them. The
two most noted examples are Irving
Berlin and Gene Buck. The Society
Of Authors. Composers and Publish
ers has voted donations amounting to
$1,000 to INDECENT composers during
the last month.
The money comes suddenly and
Broadway has its hail fellows who
are ever ready to aid in the spending.
There are quite few composers and
lyricists who have dashed off song
In a publishing house in a single after
noon and received royalties of more
than $4,000.
Because of this miracle they believe
that they can do the same thing al
most any afternoon they gather
around the piano. The truth is that
no composer has more than four dis
tinct song hits. A hit, incidentally, is
not a mere successful song. 1t means
that the sales must amount to more
than 100000 copies.
