On the contrary, simp'.i'ity of line or treatment, rich eierrancc, be it in thoueht. work or wofl is more often the raarK of merit, i To cleverly oxpress an idea bv simple and direct methods is the acme ci achievement in any held.

This vi clever book "Potterism" is a straightforward piea for clear thinking and clear1 livinpr, a protest against the bronnidic muddied mind, an apperl to th intelligence and reason. Think.' not from this that it is a treatise cr sermon or philosophical publication, u; the contrary it is an abso-Ling (mystery murder story with a strong- Jov theme interwoven. A book that will hold your interest from start to finish, that will charm you with its character ior.s ard at the same time brine a smile of appreciation a: it clears the oohweh-s iron, your mind.

AN indication of the extent of the reconstruction pro-' jLjl gram of the American railroads is found in the fact that the Government turned back to the roads last March approximately 2,230,000 freight-cars of all classes, a large percentage requiring complete rebuilding. The New York Central system, owning 277,734 freightcars, or twelve per cent of the total turned back to the roads, has been working under full pressure to restore crippled and unfit rolling-stock to full efficiency. The manner in which the enormous repair program is being pushed through reflects credit upon the American workmen who, in twenty-four different car plants, are engaged on the job. At these plants a progressive traction system has been adopted whereby the decrepit cars are brought in at one end, the precise repairs chalked on their sides by expert inspectors, and then moved through the long ways of the shops past various crews, each of which performs a given operation. THE heads of old rivets, of which there are 4,000 in a steel coal car, are burned off with acetylene torches, after which cranes lift and toss aside the parts beyond repair. Other gangs' replace needed parts of frame and running gear, and the car emerges at the other end ready for the painters, and then for service. As old cars are restored, and new equipment added, the facilities for distribution are increased, and the public is benefited. The new freight and, passenger rates should result in the establishment of a credit basis that will encourage investments in railroad securities and thus make possible even further improvements in transportation service.
