At one time or another you have,
undoubtedly, anticipated something
with great pleasure only to find
afterwards that the pleasure was
not so great after all?
You plan a trip. let US say.
You think about 1t, you picture

That probably accounts somewhat peculiar attitude

As President Ham puts it, there is little satisfaction TO
get before body and then before another

Messrs Ham and Hanna both able railway executives,
might be frank enough to tell the p u G. that their
holders do merger later but will not fight for
one leaving others to do the fighting They might truly
tell the commission that they make the fight and present
plan Of their their motives will be under suspicion;
opposition will spring and this opposition will beget oppO
sition in Congress.
Whatever the underlying motives behind the qupDling
railway heads is plainly evident that they CAN
NOT reject merger that does not differ materially from
the one they sought have put through Congress.
Let the Public Utilities tie Commission 60 ahead and present
velop at public hearings just what the attitude Of the
street railways.
Transit conditions are such in Washington that railway
heads Will not dare oppose legislative merger Cnat Is
reasonable and and that protects their interests
Mr. Ham tells the commission what everybody knowS-that
the outlook railways is too encouraging For
that there MUST be transit merger here that will

SeasOnable Tips

SeasOnable Tips
A WOMAN is not middle-aged
"A until she begins to think OF a
camping trip with shudder: a
man, until he begins to think
of the long, moonlight drive home
with q yawn.
Somehow, summer is never long
enough for q man to learn how
to sit down gracefully without
Wrecking his white flannel trousers.
"Boundless love" Is the kind
that a man usually gives only
to a woman to whom he is NOT
bound.
The great difficulty in getting
a divorce, at this season of the
year, is that it's so hard to get
your lawyers and the judge off
the golf links, at the same time.
A girl foolishly imagines that
a man must sample her kisses
before he can discover whether
or not he wants them for life.
But, alas, ma cherie, the doubt
never comes until AFTER the
kiss.
A married woman's idea OF a
wild spree is to go window shop
ping for a diamond necklace,
ana come home with a 9S-cent
pair of pearl earrings and
new dishmop.
After 40, celebrating birthdays
and anniversaries is too much like
punching Father Times clock,
to arouse any real enthusiasm in
a woman.
In most love affairs, Fate de-
