Not for a good many years has Old

he has during the last few weeks.
Almost every mile of railway operated

bitter cold for days at time.
These bouts with the Storm King are
nothing new to the men who keep the
tracks open and run the trains. They
know all his tricks. But generally the
battle front is confined to one part OF
the railroad at a time, with Old Sol shining
merrily on the remainder Of the right-of-

one end of the railroad to another, it
was continuous fight to get the trains
through trains carrying troops, war ma
tcrials, fuel, food and mail.
Schedules, to besure, took a bad beating.
But the trains kept going through.
And behind that simple fact were the
maintenance forces, repair men, train and
engine crews, and division officials who
met every challenge of the heavy SHOWS,
the blasting winds and the bitter cold.
Passengers and shippers, for the most
part, accepted the fortunes of this battle
on the winter front with patience and
good nature. And for this friendly con-
sidcration, the Great Northern il sin
