SCHOOL NOW TEACHING
HOW TO USE TELEPHONE

The Importance Of proper use of
the telephone is steadily gaining
ground. Now one Of the classes In
the Bigelow School at Shrewsbury,
Conn.,. has a weekly telephone drill.
At each of the scholars desks there
Is a toy phone. One Of their mum.
Der acts as the central and the
pupils are taught how to call the
police, the fire department, an am
bulance and to order household
supplies.
In addition, Miss Agnes C. Con.
nelly, the teacher who inaugurated
this special phone drill, instructs
her pupils in distinct er1unciation,
the rights Of others on party lines
and how to use the telephone book.
These weekly phone drills are SO
popular that Miss Connolly has
found that to forbid child to par
tioipate is an excellent punishment.

RAILROAD LINES
INCREASE IN
SAFETY
Frequent Inspection and Reg
uIar Grooming of Locomo-
tives Decreases Hazards

War on wrecks is constantly being
waged by the railroads Of the en-
tire country with the result that
railroad travellers are ever being
protected with greater care against
ell hazards that can be foresee7i.
One OF the most important precau-
tions taken il to keep locomotives
in perfect mechanical condition.
On large systems where several
hundred engines are in daily serv-
ice tho problem of regular groom
Ing and prompt repairing when
need arises~is difficult one. For
q complete overhaul more than 12S
parts have to be stripped from the
locomotive, the average weight OF
each part being several hundred
pounds. These parts in turn have
to be carried to special machine
shops and forge departments to be
conditioned before being returned
to the locomotive.
Time was when overhead cranes
could care for this work, but in
shops of the present where in a
single building forty or more en-
Rines are being worked on at a time,
this Is no longer possible. Electric
crane trucks that travel around the
entire plant carrying anything from
Ia driving rod to a sand dome have
been pressed into this service in Tho
shops Of one Of the most progress
sive roads in the country with the
result that 1t has been found pos
sible greatly to accelerate the work
of dismantling and repairing.
At present five of tho crane
trucks are handling practically all
of the parts Of between 500 and
geo locomotives that are. rebuilt and
modernized annually. Because OF
the precision with which the work
is done the locomotives, as they
leave the shop, are ready for tie
mighty task of hauling ten steel
cars, safely and steadily, at sixty
miles an hour.

sold for forty-eight cents. All
Red Seal single-faee ten-inch

When this firm, with its ex-
