RAILWAYS
Build New Cars
For Festival Year

LONDON British railways have
embarked on an ambitious build
ing program for the Festival of
Britain year. During 1851 400
locomotives, $500 passenger cars
and 10000 freight cars are to be
built. Of these, nearly u 200 will
be new type standard passenger
and restaurant cars. large num-
bers of which will operate on the
special Festival of Britain trains.
. The new cars will embody the
best features of the equipment
previously operated by the former
British railway companies. In
teriors of the all-steel cars will be
upholstered in figured blue and
maroon moquette. Good lighting
will be featured. Window space
on a generous scale will afford
excellent views of the countryside
through which the trains will speed
and the compartments will be
decorated by wood panels. Vesti-
bules will be lined with light
mahogany.
British railways announce that
new ships will also be put into
service in 1851 on routes operated
by or in conjunction with their
services.

a "packaged" European trip would
be little or nothing, the economical
off-season has come to mean also
the span of months when the low
est transatlantic fares are OBJ
tainable. That differs between the
airlines on one hand and ocean
liners on the other, and whether
to go by sea or air becomes a $64
question. Time at ones disposal
and individual preference are fac
tors in the answer, of course.
The to-Europe summer season
for ships begins May / and con-
tinues through July: westbound
it's July Is to october IS. inclu-
sive. For airlines. the cheapest
fare is in force only until March
81. by which date 15-day excur-
sionists must return to this coun-
try. The saving from on-season
air fares is nearly 40 per cent.

Millions Of sheep browse in the
pastures OF the world, and many
Of them are allowed to roam where
they will. For months at a stretch
they may live and rest far from
any barn or shed.
When sheep have their own way
they tend to seek high ground al
night. If the pasture affords only
a small hill, they go to the top, OF
near to the top, to take their rest
On the side of a mountain, they
go far upward and stay until morn
ing.
That instinct doubtless came from
the wild ancestors OF sheep, which
are believed to have done the same
thing long ago. We can gain a
good idea of what the ancestors OF
domestic sheep were like by observ-
ing wild sheep which live today.
Our present-day wild sheep like tc
rest in high places. BY doing so
they protect themselves to some ex-
tent from such enemies as bears
and wolves.
In Northern Africa are the wild
Barbary sheep. They live in the
Atlas Mountains and other high
lands.
Most sheep have short tails, but
the tails of Barbary sheep are long.
Often they have a length of more
than q foot.

I think the use of So implies that

To put it a simpler way, when we
