Illinois Central Urges Co-Operation Os Its Patrons The Illinois Central Railroad, like other railroads, faces the task of trying to move a greatly increased amount of business with facilities which are entirely inadequate. It is therefore of the utmost importance to make the existing equipment more efficient through increased mileage. This can only be done through the fullest possible co-operation beteewn the railroads and the shippers. The shipper is allowed forty-eight hours in which to load cars, and the consignee is allowed the same time to unload. By expediting the loading and unloading, they have it in their power to substantially increase the number of cars available for serving the publio. The average car-load on all lines is only 70 per cent of the carrying capacity of the cars. Thus 30 per cent of the total loaded car mileage is not being utilized. If all cars could be loaded to full tonnage capacity the car supply would be increased by nearly one-third. For ten years preceding Federal control, the railroads added to their equipment an average of 118,846 freight cars per year, while during the 26 months of Federal control the Government added a total of 100,000 freight cars, at the rate of only 46,152 per year. For ten years preceding Federal control, the railroads added to their equipment an average of 2,569 locomotives per year, while during the 26 months of Federal control the Government added a total of 2,000 locomotives, at the rate of only 923 per year. For ten years preceding Federal control, the railroads added to their equipment an average of 2,762 passenger cars per year, while during the 26 months of Federal control the Government added no passenger cars whatever. When the railroads went under Federal control on January 1, 1918, each railroad had upon its own line an average of 45 per cent of its own cars, while at the end of Federal control, March 1, 1920, each railroad had upon its own line an average of only 22 per cent of its own cars. The result of this broadcast scattering of the cars was that the general condition of the cars deteriorated and was much worse at the end of Federal control than at the beginning. These are some of the reasons why there is a shortage of transportation, reasons which everybody ought to know, but we are now more concerned about the present and anxious to accomplish the utmost that ca# be accomplished with the impaired railroad plant with which we shall have to work until the cars can be brought home and put in shape and additional facilties acquired. I urge that our patrons do their utmost to help us keep the cars moving. When it is considered that freight cars spend one-third of their time in he hands of the shippers, it will be seen that the co-operation of the shippers is not only important, but absolutely necessary. The Illinois Central promises to meet its patrons more than half way and will do everything within its power to serve them. Constructive criticsm and suggestions are invited. C. H. MARKHAM, President, Illinois Central Railroad Company.

quite a while, I take it —think Fd like it for a few daya?” Father Andrew asked. “Think an old countryman would be in place here?” “Nonsense, father," Jim forestalled Virginia’s reply. "You’re coming to us. There’s Neal’s empty bed —just crying to you to occupy it.” "No, I ain’t, Jim. Birds in their nests don’t want any foreign fowl roosting with them. Yen’re married, too. Mrs. Dalton—now you want to make this brother of yours realise that young beginners don’t do well to take in toe many guests—even the ln-laws. If you and your husband had started that way you’d have come a cropper sure—wouldn’t you ?*' Virginia’s face paled. “I sometimes think Jim and Anne have too many ‘in-laws,’ as you call them,” she said smoothly. “I’m sure you can get room here. And to save ns both the embarrassment of hearing him mentioned again, please let me inform you that my husband and I —did—er— come a cropper. Now —if you'll excuse me—l’ve an important theater engagement, and I’ll have to run along. Come Phoebe.” They said their brief goodbys. Then Jim rose to escort them to their taxt,

and as Father Andrew gazed after tbeh retreating figures he muttered sadly: “Barbara-Anne, I’m afraid you’ve got too many folks for your ln-laws all rlgbty. And I’m not so sure I've done you any good with yonr hbsband's fam lly." , , “Anybody who knew gold from tinsel would value you, Father Andrew, dear," I declared. Then Bvry, leaning up cloae to him, purred Innocently: “How would you like to have two ol your children married Into that nice, cordial, loving atmosphere?”—Copyright, 1020. (To Be Continued.) This Tall Flagpole Attracts Lightning BRUNSWICK, Ga„ Oct. I.—The old saw that "lightning never strikes twice In the same place” has been proved wrong quite a number of times In Brunswick, as United States authorities who have had to repair the local postofflce and custom house can testify. The tall flagstaff on top of the cupola of the building was struck during a thunder storm here recently, shattering It and causing a rain of slate from the roof to the sidewalks. This is the third time in ten years, and some say the fourth, in the last fifteen years, the Federal building has been struck by lightning.
