Tribute to Italian Workers.

Italians have made such remarkable progress in railroad work because they are willing to begin at the bottom. They are not afraid of hard work and d<vnot start in with the misconception that they “know It all.” They are naturally industrious and temperate in their habits and are sustained by a cheerful philosophy of life which might well be emulated in the country of their adoption. They are intensely domestic and love of home and children is their ruling passion. Such men make good railroad men because they place a high value on human life and are faithful and loyal. Men who are loyal to their families are loyal to their country. And these Italian railroad men have shown their loyalty to the Stars and Stripes by becoming citizens of the United States.— Exchange.
