This is matter which should be of concern, not only to the railroad executives, but to the public as well, because any thing which tends to cripple the efficiency of our present excellent railway system can not fail to adversely affect oul national progress and prosper ity.
 In addition to being depriv- ed of the traffic sorely needed. as result of the competition mentioned, the railroads are also handicapped by a heavy tax burden and government regulation to a degree which is often oppressive. They pay three hundred and seventy five millions annually in taxes, yet hungry government depart ments and bureaus clamor for more.
 How long the roads can con- tinue to operate efficiently under all these handicaps is serious question. The prospect of bankrupt national trans portation system is not a pleas ant one for either the railroads or the public. But the recent Seaboard receivership and the financial plight of several other roads indicate that such situation is threatened if present conditions cannot be relieved in some way.

The Lenten Season

The observance of Lent, the great fast proceeding Easter, is a custom which originated with the early church, probably in the latter part of the second century, but the number of days included in the Lenten season varied widely at diff ferent times.
 In the beginning it appears from the writings of Irenaeus and other early fathers of the church, only one or two days of fasting were observed. By the fourth century periods of three, six, even seven weeks were observed in various coun-
Hyder weekly herald., 1931-03-21

tries, with widely different customs with respect to the continuity of the fast.
 As at present observed Lent is a fast of fourty days, not including Sundays, beginning with Ash Wednesday-thls year on February 18--and end ing with the Saturday before Easter.
 During Lent it is considered desirable by the churches ob- serving it that their members abstain from food each fasting day until evening"; also that the season may be marked by frequent attendance at wor- ship and increased diligence in works of charity. Indul- gence is worldly amusements is considered unsuitable to the Lenten season.
 Lent is observed by the Ro- man Catholic, Anglican and Luthern churches.

Protecting Investors

Not so long ago whenever business got into distress it failed. Often many persons lost their investment. Today big business u.es it's brains to avoid bankrupty. For instance, thousands of small investors in every state of the Union, many in villages and small towns, are cooperating in an unusual plan to protect $14,- 500,000 of George M. Forman and Company real estate bonds, that stopped paying in- terest when depression came.
 The Foreman firm was an old and strong concern with an international business, but it got into distress neverthe- less. An advisory committee of we'll known financiers worked out a plan whereby George M. Foreman Realty Trust, Chi cago, was organized. Investors have already turned over to it more than $9,OOO,0OO of the old Foreman bonds. They will receive new bonds and shares in addition and will benefit from the centralized manage ment of twenty-seven great properties involved, instead of merely the one property in which each invested.
 Investors are too often the innocent victims of such emer- gencies as the present depres- sion. When all business can fol- low the wise course laid out by these financiers to safe guard many thousands of small investors, this country will prosper as never before.

TEN YEARS OR so AGO From the Hyder Alaska Miner March B, 1921.

BlQS TOT clearing the right of way for the tram to Premier are being prepared by a num- Der of parties and some have been submitted. The right of way is to be 100 feet wide and 50 feet of the center will be cleared. The disance is almost l2 miles, so the clearing alone is no small undertaking. The tram will cross Salmon River twice before reaching Nine Mile and the longest span will be 1500 feet. More than 45 miles of cable will be used. There will be a straight stretch from the Mine to Nine-mile, a distance of about 3 miles. An angle station will be located here. The next tangent will be from Nine-mile to Fish Creek, about 4 miles, where another angle station will be necessary. Another stretch of 4 miles will reach the hill behing M. R.. Jamieson's residence, where a sharp turn will be made to the wharf, about another half mile. Men will be employed at each of the angle stations to push the buckets around the turns.
 The Chilliwack was in this week and took out 160 tons of Premier ore. The Albert also took out a record shipment of 700 tons.
 New in the mining field here is the Adanac mining company of Victoria, a close corporation composed of about twenty business men, who have acquired a number of claims on Fish Creek on the Alaska side of the line, and also a group at American Creek on the B. c. side.
 The St. Patricks dance in Stewart was very successful and was thoroughly enjoyed' by large number of Hyder folks.
 The Hyder Auto Transfer put their truck into commis- sion this week and manager Fred Dory is overhauling the big Dodge car in preparation for summer passenger traffic.
 On the first of April the Midget Emporium will enter upon it's second year of suc- cessful business.
 Bob Stewart took cl erge of the Hyder Drug Go. store while proprietor o. r. Hill made a trip to Ketchikan this week.
 There is some speculation as to just how strictly the Can adian authorities intend enforc- ing the terms of an order post ed on the road across the boundary line from Hyder, which appears to prohibit Am erican residents of this town from visiting in Stewart. The order requires every person seeking entry to Canada to re- port to an Immigration Inspect or for examination and "any person (not being a Canadian found in Canada, who has not entered by examina- ton, is subject to fine or i'm. prisonment and deportation.
