ROADS MAY POOL ON REPAIR WORK NEW YORK. Aug. o.—Although other Jiastern railroads are not considering following the lead of the Erie in leasing *ta repair shops for operation by private corporations, so far as can be aearaed hero today, the suggestion was [grade in one quarter that a pooling of {equipment repair facilities to obtain {greeter economy and efficiency was a {possibility that might be proposed if the jkogds fail to obtain satisfactory settle[nnt of pending labor disputes. } At the local office* of the Chicago, Dock Island & Pacific It was said noth!lng had been heard of the report that [ihe Silvls, 111., repair Bhops of the road ‘would be .turned over to the Baldwin Locomotive Company. Inquiry revealed today that the Erie's action In sub-leasing lts shops at Marlon, Ohio, and HornelL N. Y\, is anew 'ldea. Similar experiments were tried several years ago by Western roads, but. It la said, these failed of success, with the result that tho roads reverted to the system of running their own shops. ; The suggestion from Chicago that the ;Ballroad Labor Board would Interfere If other carriers follow tho fashion set by the Erie in this respect met with little credence among railroad officials hare. They declared there was nothing ■ln the transportation act empowering the board to attempt prevention of a railroad's leasing or selling any of its property or farming out repair work to outaide plants.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

But mighty few of them are stars in the sense that I understand the word, it’s a singular thing that young women who 6et out with every promise of doing big things just don’t make good, for no reason that anybody can discover. I saw an actress several years ago who seemed
to me certain to make a career. She was beautiful, and Bbe seemed full of talent. Then, she had already learned something about her art. It looked as If nothing could stop her. Then the change came, and the last thing I heard of her she was In pictures. Often a little success is too much. They get their head# swelled, develop bad habits and then gradually pass out of view.’’
