Uncommon
Sense
By
JOHN
BLAKE

If you haven't got energy, cultivate
1t. Put your health in good condition
and your physical energy will i'm
prove, and with physical energy you
will gain mental energy.
Be careful how you use both. You
can't settle a business tangle If you
have been playing tennis all the morn
ing. The exercise will use up the en-
ergy that ought to be expended on the
job. Your brains can't use what
your muscles have used already.
Energy Is always capital, but it
must be we'll and prudently invested.
Take care of yours. Add to it by
care of your health, and by abundant
mental exercise. Then expend 1t on
important matters, and don't be afraid
to eXpend it literally. 1t Is one thing
of which the more you spend the
more you will have, provided, of
course, 1t is not foolishly wasted.

FREIGHT CARS
ALL MOVING
INCREASE IN CROP MOVEMENTS

CITY TO LIMIT
FEW SURPLUS COAL CARS
Railway Executives Admit That Many
Locomotives Are Out OF Commits
sion In Need OF Repairs.

New York.-Railroads have exhaust.
ed their surplus freight cars for the
first time since November, 1920, ow-
Ing to Increased Industrial activity
throughout the country, the Associa,
ton Of Railway Executives announced
Increase In the movement of crops
fuel and other commodities always
brings a heavier demand for freight
cars in the fall, the statement said, so
that the present situation is considered
seasonable and normal. The prospect
OF a car shortage was not mentioned
"On September s there were 43,16S
surplus freight cars, 27,2S7 fewer than
on August 81" the statement said
AT the same time there were requests
from shippers for 67,S99 cars which
could not be complied with just at
that time. This was 1929 cars more
than on August 81.
Surplus coal cars numbered 1855
on September s, reduction of 1881
since August 81, while untitled orders
for cars on that date totaled 1854
cars. Surplus box cars totaled 2187
cars, reduction of 1903 in the same
period, while untitled orders for cars
on September s totaled 39,032."
The demand upon the carriers to
haul bumper crops, combined with the
emergency movement of coal, has Gen.
tered attention also on the depleted
motive power equipment of the roads,
which has been affected by the shop
mems strike. The associations last
report placed the number of locomo-
tives unfit for service at more than 80
per cent in August. Since then large
Of locomotives have been re-
tired for repairs, some railroad Off
Gals admitted, and estimating that
approximately one-half Of the roads
motive power Is unavailable for use
in the present emergency.
The need for more locomotives to
move the congestion of freight on
nearly every railroad in the country
is giving greater concern to rail Off
cials, it was said, than the possibility
Of a car shortage,

ENERGY is CAPITAL

A LAKE cannot turn a turbine
n though it contains more water
than cataract.
All the knowledge you can accumu-
late In lifetime will do you no good
unless 1t can be translated into energy
The difference between doors and
wishers In this life Is a difference of
energy.
The wishers want things. The doors
get them. 1t is hard work getting
them, but energy is the force that can
accomplish hard work.
The reason you see so many men
succeed whom you know to be no bet
ter fitted mentally than failures Of
your acquaintance Is because the sue
cessful men are energetic.
Energy Is the driving force behind
everything that Is done.
All Of us have some of 1t. or we
could not live.
Those who have a great deal usu-
ally get along, unless they constantly
misdirect it.
There are, Of course, energetic peo-
pie who never get very far. But even
they get farther than they would If
they were content to sit still.
If the maxim, Everything comes to
him who waits" were amended to
read Nothing comes to him who
waits" it would be true.
AS it stands it is one of the most
misleading and dangerous falsehOods
in eXiStt nee.
TUur energy is your capital. Use
1t wisely and economically and it will
pay VOC an almost usurious rate of
interest.
Half use it, or waste it on things
that are of no value, and you will just
about make living, which is a thing
no man of ambition wants to do.
Education teaches us to use our en-
ergy prOfitably. An educated man
can, or should, get more out of the
same amount of energy than an I'M
educated man, exactly as a turbine
gets more out of column of falling
water than the old-fashioned Overshot
wheel.
Yet the energy must be there, or the
must be useless. There
must be driving force which will ap-
ply what you have learned to your
problems. Nothing important was
ever accomplished by education alone.

Something to Think About
Blu F. A. DALKER

Why should they bother themselves
while youth is so full of delightful ex-
pectancies and time so abundant.
They are not seeking the dull, COM
mon roads in life but the magnificent
avenues that take direct to fame and
wealth in the glare of sunlight and
amid the plaudits of an admiring
world swept suddenly off it's feet by
the daring work of genius.
So the years drift by, and In their
drifting there comes sometimes to
these disciples Of the god of futurists
petrifying fear that makes them sick
at heart.
With an odd mixture of humility and
pride stirring in their ill-arranged
brain they are prompted to exertion.
But they have unconsciously lost the
skill which was theirs when life was
vibrant with power They reach out
but they touch not. And now, all of
a sudden, terrible realization over
whelms them.
While they were lettering, putting
off until tomorrow, their plodding as
sociates were improving their time,
gaining respect and an assured COM
petence for the bare days of winter,
sighting its appearance in the naked
branches of the trees and drifts of
snOw-tiakes.
Tomorrow is mans most terrible
trouble maker, Turing by promises
which are seldom redeemed and leav-
ing him ragged and alone at the cross
roads, where youth and opportunity
lie buried in the piled up heaps of
dust and ill-spent years.

But ev'ry one a treasure.
And when want it quiet like
So / can do my writing,
The noise that bunch begins to make
Sounds like two armies fighting.
One Chambers over my machine;
One asks for help with numbers:
One for my pencil makes demand;
One my tired knee encumbers.
"a dozen eggs cost forty cents,
What will three dozen cost?"
And by the time work it out
My thread Of thought is lost.
One sticky hand is reaching out
To grasp my thinning locks.
One piercing voice makes loud demand
For help with building blocks.
"My pencils broke; please sharpen 1t
So can write the rest"
And then the thoughts I've garnered in
Are all knocked gally west.
But when, at last, the sandman comes
And all four little heads
Are resting on the pillows white
OF two soft, downy beds;
And all is quiet round the house
Where once the noise did ring,

FAR-OFF TOMORROW

buzZing like bees all around them, are
often insensible to their lamentable de-
linquencies.
Occasionally, however, their con-

seemingly changing it's benumbed
mind, yawns, mods and falls asleep to
dream.
But they are going to wake up and
do something tomorrow.
They will yank the old world from
its easy chair and wake it's billion in
habitants with an earthquake.
Hitherto they have been shaping a
brilliant course, not quite matured yet,
or in fit state to be presented in it's
entirety % their intimates, who have
wept over them, prayed for them, and
done their utmost to arouse them to
action.
There is, however, no declaration on
the part Of these habituated drones of
making undue haste.

In long rows on either side of tomor-
rows path. Why fuss, fiuster and

pounds at birth. According to physi.

were ideal to give the child a chance
for quick growth and development.
