COFFEE CUP LEADS
6 TO l ON TRAINS
OF THE S. P. CO.

Coffee is a six to one favorite
among American railroad travellers,
according to Allan Pollok, manager
of Southern Pacific Company's dining
car and commissary department.
"For every cup of tea served in a
dining car or railroad restaurant more
than six cups of coffee are consumed" !"
Pollok said "In 1926 we served 429,-
757 gallons of coffee, enough to fill
6,876,112 large cups. Only 6S,562 gal
Ions of tea were consumed during the
year.
with these beverages railroad pa
irons required 69,7O5 gallons of cream,
192,042 gallons of first quality milk
and 654,900 pounds of sugar.
"The United States is a. nation of
coffee connosseurs and nothing will
so quickly cause complaint as poor
cup of coffee served with an other
wise perfect meal. On some of our
trains one man does nothing but pre-
pare coffee, and all dining car chefs
are especially trained in correct prep
aration of this popular beverage"

Mr.. Sinclair Lewis, author Of
several books, once from West

him dead with lightning. Divine
Providence, perhaps, having more.
important things to attend to, ig-

Now Mr.. Lewis, writing novel
to expose" and attack clergymen,
reminds you of the little boy who,.
"didn't say my prayers last night.
amt going to say them tonight.
and then, if nothing happens, I'll
never say them"
Mr. Lewis's novel about the Rev..
DR.. Gantry begins "Elmer Gantry

struck by lightning this time, he
may conclude that Providence is
afraid of him. Then, what a sur

Uncle John Orme, veteran member
of the lower house, is going to throw
the monkey wrench into a couple of
American legion pIlls. 1t all started
when someone introduced a measure
appropriating $4,000 of state funds for
a statute of the late General John G.
Greenway to be placed in the hall of
fame at Washington, D. G. The bill
was written as partial acceptance of
an offer from congress to allow each
state to erect statutes Of bronz or
marble in memory of it's two most
distinguished citizens. AS soon as the
name of Greenway was accepted,
someone remembered; about Frank
Luke, the Phoenix high school boy
whose daring as. an American ace
eclipsed all other feats of bravery
during the World War.
Now having two military heroes
in the hall of fame is too many for
Orme, hence his preparations for the
monkey wrench act. Said wrench will
consist of dill calling for a statute
