TREMENDOUS TRIFI. ES.

The mneTmost thoughts and simple
tastes of the Seniors were revealed last
week when Dolly Manicke, that ire
pressible Senior, suggested Twas the
Night Before Christmas as an example
of verse scansion to be worked out by
the class.
With childish giggles the Seniors fell
to work for the first time in weeks
gaily correcting Miss Barnes in her
somewhat hating attempts to recall
enough Of the jingle to put il on the
board, and otherwise making their
pleasure apparent.
The only halt occurred when Miss
Barnes had to stop and explain to Pete
Detjens that twasY was a contraction
of "it was"
Pete Detiens later gave one Of his
usual intelligent aand lucid answers
when, in answer to Miss Barnes ques-
ton of how blind man could do his
work in life, he answered that blind
man should think, and read enlighten-
ing literature He was probably puzzl-
ing on how to raise his c. in English
to an "A" when she asked him the
question.

STREAML|NE TRAIN
Union Pacific's Equipment
May Mark Beginning
of New Epoch.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,


NEW YORK, February l9.-The
streamline train, displayed to an ad-
miring Nation by the Union Pacific,
may usher in a new epoch in rail-
reading.
This speedy train is a SYMBOL of
modernity. The big equipment in
duStries and Others with a stake in
the rail industry hope it will catch
on" Railroad men generally acknowl-
edge that progress made in the last
20 years in rail transportation has
been decidedly modest, compared, for
instance, with the auto industry.
The question hinges chiefly on f.
nancing. It is no simple matter to
finance renovation of a $4,000, 10000
railway system, particularly since 1t is
already heavily in debt.
A start toward renovation has been
made. The Public Works Administra-
ton has allotted loans of some $780,
100000 to the railroads to date But
Railway Age" estimates that the
carriers would be required to spend
some S1,270,000,000 to restore their
plant to conditions Of pre-depression
days. to say nothing of radical mod
ernization.

the American railroads are 20 years

One locomotive manufacturer saws
modern engines could increase train
speeds II per cent, train loads 80 per
cent, reduce maintenance IS per cent
and cut fuel costs 18 per cent. In
other words, they would pay for them
selves in a short time.
Railroad executives say the great
problem of financing new equipment
would be largely solved by a return
Of normal volume of traffic. They
point out that the carriers in 1898,
despite the smallest freight movement
in years, were about able to earn fixed
charges.
In that year average weekly car
lcadings were about 100000 cars. This
compares with an average of more
than 100000 cars in the normal"
year 1926.
Carloadings have been improving.
but are still far below pre-depression
standards. For the latest reported
week they were 572,504 cars. up 67,841
