PULLMAN COMPANY TO
HAVE EXHIBIT IN PAGEANT
Will Show First Sleeping Car in
Contrast With Latest Model.

The Pullman Company, as one of
number of companies connected with
transportation, will have an interest
ing exhibit at the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Centenary Exhibition and
Pageant, to be held in Baltimore, Sep
TENDER oath to October 9Th. 1t will
show the first Pullman sleeping car,
in contrast with its most modern
form of travel luxury, an entertain
ment car. These exhibits will. be dis
played on the tracks adjacent to the
Hall of Transportation at the big rail-
road fair.
The original sleeping coach, repre-
senting the early days of railroading,
made it's initial run on the Chicago
and Alton Railroad from Blooming
ton, Ill.,, to Chicago, in 1859, carrying
few passengers, among whom was
George Mortimer Pullman, its inven-
tor. According to records of the Pull
man Company, no women made this
journey, and the few men who did
were loathe to remove their boots.
Number 9" the first Pullman was
called. 1t is about A feet long and
little more than feet high on the in
side, with fiat roof like a modern box
car. 1t was lighted by candle. It's
windows we've narrow, one-sashed.
Upper berths were provided in it by
raising and lowering shelf. Bedding
was kept in a compartment at one end
of the car. Curtains were hung be-
fore and between berths, and heat
was provided by two woodworking
stoves, the fuel being kept in boxes.
Hands and faces were washed in tin
basins, in the open.
Side by side with this first crude
attempt to furnish the traveller with
sleeping quarters nearly 70 years ago,
is the Pullman Company's latest in
novation, the entertainment car, af-
fording the travelling public access to
moving picture show, dancing, exer-
else, radio concert, ETC., to pass away
| the hours in transit.
The builders of this latest "palace-
on-wheels" have used every bit of the
| 82-feet length of the car. In addition
to the dance-hall, or moving picture
parlor section, are a gymnasium
equipped with mechanical horse,
punching bag, medicine ball, chest
weights and rings, ETC., barber shop
and shower bath, library lounge and
library shelf of 100 volumes.
The Pullman Company's exhibit Of
it's Oldest and it's latest rounds out the
| display of the old and the new in
railroad equipment, helping to make
this assembly the largest transporta-
ton exhibition yet gotten together.

MACHINERY, THE MIGHTIEST
OF TITANS
(Labor)

The extent to which machinery has
replaced men-and then gone on to
perform a thousand tasks which men,
unaided, cannot dds illustrated by
the new Ford equipment, designed to
turn out the mystery car. that is
to GUST the present-day "flivver".
Turbine engines supply 100000
horse power to the plant. The rotor
that is, the rotating unit-of each
turbine weighs 81 tons, and 10000 gal
Ions of water per minute are pumped
through each condenser while in ac-
ton, and there are four condensers.
Imperial Rome at the height of it's
power never had water supply like
that.
Provision has been made to double
the installation of power without
disturbing the plant.
Then there are metal spinning ma
chimes, in which hot metal discs are
whirled into shape, almost like clay
on a potter's wheel; and pair of
metal presses, weighing 240 tons each,
and other presses, weighing just a
little less. Contrast these with the
muscles of the village blacksmith I'M
der the spreading chestnut tree!

KEEP BUSY AND HAPPY

The world does move. Henry Ford
predicts that transatlantic air serv-

Mr.. Ford also said that unemploy-
ment and idleness breed wars and
revolutions and that work is "the
only salvation of the world today"
Germany is one of the best exam
pies of nation getting on its feet
again after a dreadful catastrophe.
I believe that Russia will also come
into her own. China will also re-
adjust herself.

or only for myself. I believe that we
should do all we can, not only for
ourselves, but also for posterity.

put into practical use here.
The Union Advocate of St. Paul,
says:
1.-THE State Federation of Labor and
the American Federation of Labor
have at last arrived at the conclu-
sion that nothing is more important
at this time than workers education.
1t is now recognized that the work
ers must measure minds with the OPP
position and it requires training to
qualify for the ordeal. The indus
trial system must be directed in a
way that it will provide for the well
fare of those who create all wealth
and the workers must play their part
in this directing"

UNDERTAKING. THE DEAD
Duluth Herald)

Rupert Hughes, novelist and mo-
ton picture writer, has put out a
second book about George Washing
ton. in which he again attempts to
prove that the Father of His Coun-
try was human being with human
faults.
There are all kinds of people in
this world, so it is not astonishing
that there should be the kind that
likes to write, and the kind that
likes to read, such stuff as this.
The spirit of it, of course, is very
closely akin to that of the folks who
enjoy ransacking the private lives
of their successful neighbors to see
if they can't find something that will
tarnish their laurels.
This attitude toward the great has
always been a favorite amusement
of the little.
1t isn't very important, except as
it illustrates one of the failings of
mankind.
What is really important about
Washington is what he did that
COuHtS Ill HluIudu ulSlOTy. 1u0 IdCI
that he was a human being and not
god, and that like all other human
beings he had faults, is not even
slightly important. 1t is something
that can be taken for granted with
out argument, because it has no sig
nificance at all.
Such writings as these will not
hurt Washington. AS doing a base
thing is bad for the doer, it will
hurt those who write them and
those who read them; but it will
not hurt Washington. The import
ant thing about what he was is what
he did, and that is fixed in history
beyond the reach of the longest
muckrake.
