RAILROAD CENTENNIAL

Celebrating the centennial of Eng lands first railway between Stockton "and Darlington, opened in 1925, events connected with that epochal occurrence were recently re-enact, ed.
 George Stephenson's first locomo- tive, Putting Billy" was taken from it's place in a museum and drew a replica of the first train pulled over the original line 100 years ago. This time it's power was supplied by a gasoline motor concealed beneath the boiler, which is no longer in con. dition to be fired.
 Passengers were dressed in cos. tunes of the earlier day, many no' tables taking passage and the Duke of York acting as ticket puncher.
 Speed was not a characteristic of the earliest train, as may be infer. red from the fact that a signalman IOOC oHCdd VI IL Ou Aloi oCOuSh tO warn of it's approach.
 The first three locomotives used in the United States were imported from England in 1929 and were giv- en an initial try-out at Honesdale Pa, on August 8, of that year. The Baltimore &, Ohio railroad was work. ed by horse power until 1882.
 From nothing in 1925, the rail roads of the United States have now reached a mileage of approxi mately 264,000. Next in the list come Canada and Germany, with about 40, 900 miles each.
 Perhaps methods of transportation 100 years from now will be as faI ahead of the present as our modern

"YOU CAN'T WIN"

Most advertising is designed to give an optimistic impression. It seeks to show how something de sirable may be done, or how some thing desireable may be obtained.
 Quite striking, then, in contract to the ordinary forms of printed ap- peal, is a series of placards now be- ing displayed in New York subway elevated, surface and commuters cars, the most prominent line on each card being the warning: You Cant Win"
 These placards are a part of a campaign devised by Barron c. Col Her, veteran advertising man and a special deputy commissioner of the New York police department, with a view to diverting criminals from a life of crime.
 There are eighteen different cards shown, some depicting a criminal in the act of being caught red-handed by a policeman, others illustra ting the strength of the police department in contrast to the weakness of the criminal. The last card in the ser ies shows four objects in silhouette "a chaplain, a condemned man, a DO liceman and an electric chair-witf only the three words: You Can

Win'
 All through the series the crimi- nal is pictured for what he is-"a fugitive, sneaking, cringing thing, living always in fear of the flaw '' While it is hardly expected that these warning cards will effect the reform of the hardened bandit or gunman, it is believed that they will aid in deterring some who may be on the verge of embarking upon a life of crime, or tend to halt others who may have taken oly the first steps in that direction.
 At all events, the criminal of New York city will have the picture of his ultimate fate kept before his eyes in a manner in which it may not be overlooked. He will have the benefit Of some very practical sermons without the necessity of go- ing to church.
