Letters to the Editor
Safety Of Travel

To the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledoers
Sir--The Pennsylvania Railroad sys-
tenn has made remarkable record which
should not be passed without comment.
According to an official report, not a
single passenger was killed on the COM
pany's lines in the year which ended
May 81. Had all other roads in the
country done as well there would be a
different story to tell concerning Amer
ica's railroad fatalities for that period.
1t is estimated that the Pennsylvania
handles about seventh of the Nations
passenger business, while during the
year ending May 81 It operated nearly
million and a half trains over IL 600
miles Of road and sold 152, 1000, 900
fares. Let it be borne in mind, too, that
this system runs many very fast trains
and crosses some of the most thickly
settled sections of the country, where
hazards of operation are logically null
tiplied. There are roads that run over
territories in which the construction Of
solid roadbeds is difficult, and 1t may be
pointed out that this handicap is re-
systems, including the Pennsylvania,
nearly every description. II was a
magnificent performance or the Pennsyl-
vania.
In this connection It might not be
amiss to say a good word for all the
railroads. Not only is passenger travel
safer than it was in former years. but
railroad work has become safer for
employees and the annual death and in
jury lists, on the whole, have been
gradually diminishing. It is shown by
statistics compiled in Washington that
the total number Of persons killed on
railroads in 1907 was II $50, while in
1921, with many more trains in opera
ton and many more fares cold, the
death list was almost &C per cent less.
The showing Of the last several years
would have been considerably better
had it not been for the increase in
grade crossing accidents. As careful
as company may be in the inspection
Of equipment and minimizing hazards on
its lines. there are accidents, as pointed
out by the Pennsylvania, over which 1t
has no control, and the crossing acci-
dent often comes in this classification.
Between 1917 and 1921 the number Of
persons killed and injured in misad-
ventures of that character averaged
something like $500 annually. This is
terrible toll. but it can be greatly
reduced II the public will do its part by
crossing crossings carefully

Beauty Versus Charm

To thr Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger.
Sir-NIarceline d'Alroy enunciated Il
worthwhile truth n few days ago when
she said; Beauty fades, charm en-
lures Woman greatest asset is her
ability 10 charm. Beauty may be n
gift of the gods. but charm is human
attribute Of far greater value.
Charm in a woman IS an elusive some
thing impossible of definition. 1t is TO
femininity what perfume is to the flower.
1t is essentially provocative. fragrant,
enduring. desirable. 1t is an outward,
Vet invisible, manifestation of fine
thoughts of unseltishncSs, of apprecia-
tion Of the rights of others. 1t may
bo demonstrated in many ways. Charm
necessarily is dependent on relation
ship toward Other people. II may bs
expressed by words. actions and clothes.
i is charm Of mind as we'll as of body.
II is separate and distinct from attrac-
tiveness. A woman may he attractive
without being charming. and vet she
cannot be charming without being at.
tractive
\ woman wholly selfish never can
BE- truly charming. Charm inevita-
bis implies gracefulncss and tact. II
is unfortunate that many women strive
for beauty rather than for that charm
without which all efforts must fall far
short Of the real goal. ADONIS.

The climax in the huge imper.
sonal drama Of cement making is
the burning Of the raw materials
in great rotary kilns.
Agood-sizedkiln,seton end, would
be taller than 2O-story building.
Atouring Car could run throughit.
The kilns are steel cylinders lined
with FIRE brick. .Theyrest at slight
angle from the horizontal on
heavy rollers, and are driven by
steel gears at half a revolution a
minute. A medium sized kiln
weighs 275,00O pounds, empty,
and has foundations as heavyasfor
a alo.story building.
Into the upper end Of the revolv-
ingkilnslowthe finelygroundma-
terials for cement. There theymeet
ablast Of burning pulverized coal,
blown in at high pressure from an
8.inch jet at the opposite end.
Where the materials enter the
kiln, the temperature is 1000 de-
grees Fahrenheit or more. AS they
tumble over and over on their
3-hour journey through the kiln
in the face Of the flame, they rise
neutrality-suspicious. 2, 500
to 5000 degrees-more heat than
is required for almost any other
industrial process.
The workman, watching through
hispeephole in the end ofthekiln,
must wear smoked glasses. 1t is
like looking at the sun.
And ifyou speak to him, you must
shout close to his ear to be heard
above the roar Of the flames.
In big cement plant, there will
be dozen or more of these kilns,
roaring and revolving side by side
in one great room.
A medium-sized kiln's output is
IS barrels an hour, and in that
time ;, 500 pounds Of coal must be
blown into it.
You may have seen the great smoke
stacks in rows over a cement plant.
There is stack for every kiln, and four
kilns make Znedium.sized plant, with
5000 barrels capacity day or there.
abouts. When you see four of these
stacks together, you can know that
enough coal or equivalent fuel is being
burned in the kilns beneath to supply
the electricity for the homes, streets,
shops and industries Of three ordinary
cities OF 10000 inhabitants each.
In a certain town OF 1000 inhabitants
there is 4.kiln plant where the hear
lost through the stacks, because of the
great temperature and draft required
below, would, if it could be captured,
supplythree times the electric light and
power used by all the rest Of the town.
burning cement, costly as it is, is only
one OF the heavy fuel consuming oper.
atoms in cement making.
Every ton OF cement you buy takes the
equivalent Of more than half a ton of
coal in heat and power to make it
more than 200 pounds, that is, to the
barrel Of 376 pounds.
