OF COURSES!

When you want to get down
town in hurry, you don't sprint
ten or twenty blocks in order to
be there on time. You take an au-
tomobile or a street car, of course.
When you want to ask ques-
tion of a friend who lives a mile
or so away, you don't walk to his
house to find out what you want
to know. You call him on the tel
ephone, of course.
And SO it goes-in all the af-
fairs of your daily life. You take
the easy, intelligent means of ac-
complishment every time.
when you want to buy refrig-
orator or a car or a piano, you
don't need to look all over town
to discover the kind you want.
You read the advertisements in
your newspaper. They bring you
all the facts necessary to decide
just which refrigerator or car or
piano will give you the most sat
isfaction, how much to pay, and
where to buy it.
You buy through the advertise
ments because they save you time
and effort. Because they enable

THE ENGINEER

We sat in a passenger coach
In the seat ahead of us was a
man and across the aisle from
him was another man. These two
men engaged in conversation; we
looked out of the window and lis
tened. The man directly in front
of us objected to the way the en-
gineer was running the train. He
said he was in hurry to keep an
appointment, and there was nc
sense loafing along, and why did
MT the engineer open Ter up and
show little speed.
The man across the aisle said:
"Well, so far as / am concerned
we're going too fast. The man
who is running this train isn't at
all my idea of a good engineer.
All he seems to think about is
speed"
So these two passengers had en-
tirely different ideas as to how
the train should be run. Even
had the engineer heard them COM
planning, he would have paid no
attention to them, because he was
running on schedule. He was

RAILROADS ARE IMPORTANT

If we were suddenly to be de-

these facts in mind, it is easy to
see the advisability and wisdom
in boosting our railroads by adj
vocating shipping and travelling
by rail. 1t is a sure thing the
railroads cannot remain in exist
ance unless they have business.
More than that, they must have
more business than they are now
getting. We can help ourselves
by boosting for increased bust.
