Makes Thirty Trips
To California Over
Santa Fe Railroad

When Mrs. Amanda Johnson
resident of Roseville, Ill, recently
completed her thirtieth round trip
to California, she established her
self as the premier traveller among
the oldest citizens in that part Of
the country, and gave the Santa Fe
railroad something to brag about,
for she made all of the trips over
that road.
The total number of miles she
has travelled over the Santa Fe is
more than 100000, representing
more than $4,000 in mileage alone,
not to mention Pullman and dining
costs.
Mrs. Johnson usually travels
alone, and knows all the chief
points of interest along the road
like a book. She is well acquaint-
ed with Fort Madison and the
broad expanse of the Mississippi
spanned by the long bridge, she
knows we'll the majestic ranges Of
CuS ROChleS, anu Cu6 SuIlhISS6u 1duu
of California.
Usually she makes the trip alone
but her age and her regular pres
ence on the Missionary and other
through trains has attracted the
attention of road officials, so on
her last trip the railroad assigned
her a special negro maid during
the whole trip to look after her
needs.

Coast to Coast Train
Travel Is Too Slow

Train travel between Los An
geles and the east is pleasant but
too slow, declares Leigh G. Palmer
president of the United States
Fleet Corporation.
The establishment of a CONNER :
cial air service between the two
coasts is the ideal solution, he said.
But in the meantime Mr.. Palmer
feels that many hours could be
clipped off running time, making

soldiers as guerillas. Their record

Certainly Is wonderful how

We'll" said I, II know GER

Bobby laughed. locked up the

and how one didn't and he mar
veled at the fact that human
y beings have to crawl into some
thing and cover themselves up.
Spring came and with spring,
Bobby decided that it would be
nice to build a house up in the
big oak tree in our side yard.
So work began. We built a
kind of platform on the lower
branches and l put two rude seats
in 1t, to make it cozy.
Bobby spent much Of his time
there and often carried Bunny
up into his bower. They had tea
parties up in the oak tree and all
, kinds of good times.
Whenever l missed Bobby 1
knew where to look for him these
days. He was sure to be up In
his tree. In fact he was up in his
bower so much that 1 called him
the bird"
I'D like to sleep out there all
night" suggested Bobby one
evening.
II don't think that would do"
I replied. BED is the best place
for you. You can perch there

Then I'm going to take a nap

Does She LOUe Him?
Ar MISS FAIRFAX:

~ EAR MISS FA1RFAA:
/ met a young woman
IL last year at the home of
a friend, but, saw her only for
a few moments. Later I learned
that she had spoken often of me
and seemed to like me. Soon /
met her again at the same
friends .house-in fact we went
to the station to see her off, for
she was going to another city
to live.
About five months after this
/ went to the city where she
lives on a business trip and had
a chance to see her again. She
seemed overjoyed to see me
and introduced me into the cir,
Gle OF her acquaintance. She
treated me very cordially and
even recited love poems to me.
In spite OF the Encouragement
/ have received from her / am
wondering whether she is simply
trying to be sociable or whether
she truly loves me. That seems
impossible, for she is highly ed
ucated and / am a wage Garner.
frankly admit that l respect
and love her.
kindly advise me as to what
should do. READER.
WHETHER she looks upon you
w as a friend, or loves you,
is a question to which you can
learn the answer only by asking
her to be your wife. But unless
you are in position to support
a home and wife, / suggest that
you continue to treat her and as
far as you can to think Of her
as Just q friend.
Prove your friendship for her
In every way. Do not allow your
self to be jealous Of her other
friends and do not permit the
thought of her to occupy your
own mind to the exclusion of all
your other friends. Try your
best to make a business and
financial success. Then you will
feel justified in asking her to
