It takes a wealth of new ideas to keep the wheels of progress spinning. At the Illinois Central two dozen a day—suggested by members of our railroad fam. ily—are put to work making this a better railroad.

Every idea adopted earns its originator a cash award. Largest award to date—$2,605.00; the minimum —$5.00. The record for the past seven and one half years: 188,753 suggestions submitted; 31,879 adopted; $379,254 in cash awards.

This year, and in those ahead, we are counting on the constant stimulation of these new ideas to help speed our program to bring you transportation second to none.

The Illinois Central intends to earn your continued patronage and friendship.
