THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Is there any thrill comparable to
standing In q great railroad station and
watching mighty train which began
its trip thousands Of miles away sud-
denly ease itself down the track exactly
on the minute?
We think not, and certainly this goes
for all Of our day and generation,
brought up on the romance OF railroad
ing.
It may be that the youngsters will get
the same thrill out of plane, or even
bus arrival, but for us of the older days
there is nothing, absolutely nothing, to
bring ones heart up in ones mouth quite
like great train.
There are the tracks, in the cool Of
the morning, with here and there a
trainman.
The rails gleam in the light which
filters down alongside the umbrella sheds.
Out in the concourse people are making
their way to other trains, and coming
through the gates from still others.
What are these to those who wait for
the one train?
1t is now 7:54 o'clock and no sign
OF 1T yet.
The time, put on papers days ago,
and known for hours by all, Is set at
7:55 am.
A beautiful, bright, wonderful Spring
morning. after two days of thunder
showers.
Peony blossoms opening in suburban
gardens. First to open, the beautiful
old Festiva maxima, cream, with GRIM
son flecks at the heart and sometimes
around the edges.
Pauls Scarlet, favorite climbing rose,
opening out that very morning on ga
RACES and lattices everywhere.
1t is now almost to the stroke of 7:55
"a few more seconds and the big train
should appear.
There is something dark moving
there
Sure enough, there she is!
How gently 1t glides down the tracks,
slowly. slowly, as If most Of her journey
had not been made at 60 miles an hour
or better.
Over hundreds OF miles she spun, the
long train, the beautiful flash of the
locomotive, the glistening Pullmans, but
now she is eased into the station as
gently as one might put baby to sleep.
Slower and slower she moves until,
with the slightest possible bump, the
great train comes to halt at the barrier.
There is running OF red caps and
stir OF those waiting at the gates.
Conductors step down, then there is
confused moment, until all at once the
passengers begin to pour out of the cars
all along the platform.
Men and women, with the eager air
OF Travellers striding along in their de-
termined fashion, intent on catching
sight of the familiar face and form as
soon as possible.
Many tears we'll unbidden then but the
honest person is unable to answer
whether all out of sentiment at the re-
turn, surely that, but also brought out
by the sudden appearance Of the awaited
train itself.
Something thrilling, there, at least to
those who were brought up on the rail-
roads.
One may think that always there will
be something breath-catching in such an
arrival.
1t bears forever the hopes of mankind,
and more than hopes, its sentiment
Had railroading at any time been
merely matter Of so many miles of

of thought as Charles Curtis and Will
Rogers, who not only learned white mems
ways, but improved on them.

Daily Doubt.
Life used to be easy

To laugh or be scared.

One day comes the news.
The next it's alarming
And tends to confuse.

I stood upon the rivers edge.
Calm and serene its fow,
Rejecting far below
The soft blue sky and trees
Just fluttered by the breeze.
1t seemed as if the waters depth
Perfected the fair scene
OF blue and Maytime green;
So beautiful 1t lay
Under the waves light play.
I drew a transient breath Of peace.
A white gull passing by
Sailed through an azure sky;
All in the flowing stream
Mirrored, as in dream.

VETERANS TO MARK BIRTH

Seventy-Ninth Division Unit To
Hold Review and Dinner
In Baltimore

World War veterans of the 313th
Infantry, 10Th Division, in Garrett
county, have been notified that a
regimental "review" will be held at
$3.50 p. M, October 2. A dinner will
follow to celebrate the twentieth ami

Other Fall Preserves

Peaches and pears are not so firm
as ounces. 1t is better to combine
them with sugar and let stand over
night to extract the natural fruit
juices. The next morning they may
be cooked in their own juice with no
added water.
Ounces, peaches and pears that
have been peeled should never be al
lowed to stand exposed to the air. If
it is impossible to cook them immedi-
ately after peeling let them stand in
water containing two tablespoons
each of salt and vinegar to the gallon.

WILLIAM HARAHAN,
RAIL LEADER, DIES.
Head of Three Roads Was
70-Rites Set Friday
in Richmond.

CLIFTON FORGE, Va, Dec. IS
In roundhouse, shop and on the lines
Of the G. 6e O., Nickel Plate and Pere
Marquette there was a note Of sad
ness today because William johnson
Harahan was dead.
The president Of the three rail-
roads, once units of the vast Van
Sweringen system, enjoyed a wide
popularity among everyday workers
on the lines, some of whom knew him
IN the early days of his career when
he served in the shops. at the tele-
graph key and as maintenance engi-
neer.
Fellow executives said many en-
ployes felt kind of fllial attach
ment" for Mr.. Harahan, the antithesis
Of the gruff, hard boiled" executive
Ill for Three Weeks.
Mr.. Harahan died last night in the
c. & o. Hospital here after a three
weeks illness with septicaemia, just
eight days short of his 10th birthday.
He will be buried in Richmond Friday
after funeral services there.
Son of the late James Theodore
Harahan. one-time president of the
Illinois Central Railroad, William
Harahan became one of the outstand-
ing figures in the industry and en-
3oyed two unusual distinctions.
He was twice named head of. the
G. & o. and directed three important,
separately operated railroads simul-
taneously.
Resumed Presidency.
Impaired health led him to re-
hnquish the presidency of the c. &
o. to John j. Bernet in 1929 after
nine years service to become senior
vice president. When Mr.. Bernet died
six years later, Mr.. Harahan, his
health greatly improved, resumed the
presidency and also was made head
Of the Nickel Plate and the Pere Mar
Quette.
Outside of the railway activities
to which he devoted his life, Mr..
Harahan was essentially a family
man. He lived quietly and unpre-
tentiously with his family, which at
one time was said to include 81 chill
dren.
He had IA children by his first
marriage and also raised the children
of his widowed sister as we'll as sew

adopted.
