ROCK ISLAND RAILROAD
EMPLOYEES ORGANIZE
ANTI-SWEARINC CLUE

Chicago, While various move
ments for the betterment of mankind
are being sponsored throughout the
nation, it has remained for a group
of Rock Island railway employees at
Shawnee, Okla, TO start something
in personal way by the organization
of a Don't Swear" club in their
home town. The first meeting to or
game the initial group, which it is
hoped will spread among railway en-
ployees generally, was held in the su
preme court room of the city hall at
Shawnee, Okla, at z 20 p. m, Friday,
January 20. The organizers and
charter members of the initial club
are j. L. Coss, assistant chief dis
patcher; w. M. White, conductor;
o. X. Curry, chief clerk to the su-
perintendent; r. S. Barnes, engineer:
and w. H. Halsey, chief clerk to the
master mechanic.
Commenting on the new club, Dis
pdlCliti NJOo5g VIM DpOIiSOt 4Ol bilC
movement, says:
'In the early days of railroading,
it was presumed that swearing was
an important requirement. But the
times have changed; we are all more
enlightened now, and this unneces-
sary part Of speech is being fast elm
mated, although there is still room
for improvement. We know that
swearing is not necessary in our
everyday work on the railroad, and
certainly it does not sound well and
often is embarrassing. In my opin-
ion, Don't Swear club will meet
with the approval of vast multitude
of railroad employees, and be ap
plauded by multitude of the general
public"

J. Harry Shannon.

J 1t is with the deepest sorrow that The
Star records the death of one of Its
veterans Of editorial service. J. Harry
Shannon. who for many years has beer
identified with this newspaper and
whose writings have formed valuable
! feature of its issues. Joining the staff
as reporter in 1890. he remained a
member OF the writing force with a
brief interval. to the time OF his death
! which occurred yesterday.
Exceptionally qualified for research
he eventually turned his attention to
matters OF local history and became
an authority in that line. He origi-
mated The Rambler" under which
title he wrote long series of articles,
published weekly for many years. de-
voted to genealogical and historical
questions, each pertaining to a par
ticular locality or family or landmark
A singular fact in this connection is
that although The Rambler" became
known through his work to thousands
Of people who followed him devotedly
in his wanderings about the environs
OF the Capital. his name was not iden-
tilted with his writings. This was his
preference. The result was that only
today is it disclosed to all but a few
Of The Rambler's" readers, who had
already CHANGED to learn the fact. that
j. Harry Shannon was the author.
An indomitable spirit kept him al
most continuously at his task. despite
i'll health. which for a number of years
past has been his portion. Originally
it was his custom to visit the places
about which he wrote. on horseback
or on foot. He carried with him pho
toeraphic equipment. All OF his arti-
cles were illustrated by his own ma
terials. He was scrupulously careful
in his researches and scored a remark
ably high percentage of accuracy in
dealing with matters of the most diff
cult nature. These articles have be-
come authoritative and constitute a
rich contribution to the history of
Washington and its surroundings.
The Star is gratified that through
the activity and the ability of this
gifted writer 1t has been able TO pre-
serve through these years of publication
OF Rambler" articles the records of
families and estates in true historical
perspective which but for his enterprise
would perhaps never have been collated
and set forth in always interesting
manner
A vivid personality, eager and alert
for every possible service Of citizenship
