B.& 0. AIR-CONDITIONS 57 PASSENGER CARS Hope To Complete Modern Coaches By First Os , Next Month A program authorizing the airconditioning of 57 more passenger cars on the Baltimore and Ohio, will be well on its way to completion on June 1 when the reduced passenger fares become effective. It will give the B and O and its western affiliate, > the Alton, 480 air-conditioned cars to meet the anticipated heavy demands of the vacation season. Air-conditioning has been a rapid development on the Baltimore and Ohio, since it was not until 1930 that the first railroad car in the world — a B & O diner —was air-conditioned, followed by the first completely airconditioned train in 1931 and the first long distance sleeping car train in 1932. It was not until recently, however, that officials of the Baltimore and Ohio found that they had revived, instead of discovered the most revolutionary improvement in railroad passenger travel in nearly threequarters of a century. Records of their motive power department revealed that in 1884, the B and O installed its first air-cooling system In a railroad passenger car. This system was a huge ice box in the bow of the car, fitted with air ducts so that the car's motion caught up some of the breeze it created and carried it back over the ice and into the car proper. The system now in effect on the B and O uses no ice, but is entirely mechanical. It controls automatically not only the temperature of the air, bnt also cleans it and conditions it with proper humidity. On LakeWawasee Charles Dalke was in Indianapolis on business, last week-end.

I OUR PATRIOTIC 0 MUSIC 0 ■ , i.TTm WILLIAM BILLINGS la credited with being tbe author of the first American patriotic song, one that became popular with Colonial troops In the Revolutionary war, although there was no specific title for it Another early one was "The Liberty Song,” published In 1768, calling on the people to unite for liberty. The first American-made patriotic sea song was “The Yankee Man-of-War," written about 1778, to commemorate the exploits of Capt. John Paul Jones. "Yankee Doodle," known as an American patriotic ballad, was an English song at tbe beginning of tbe Revolution and an American song at its close. It was ordered played by General Lafayette at the surrender of the British forces at Yorktown. Joseph Hopkinson wrote of "Hall Columbia.” which were adapted to the air of the “President’s March,” the composer of which is not definitely known. “The StarSpangled Banner” was written by Francis Scott Key after witnessing the bombardment of Ft. McHenry in 1814. The air Is from a song by the English composer. John Stafford Smith, entitled “Ode to Anacreon.” The words and music of "Columbia, the Gem of tbe Ocean.” equally well known as “Tbe Red. Wl.te and Blue,” were written by Thomas a Becket, an English actor playing at the Chestnut Street theater in Philadelphia in 1843. It Is used In England with suitable alteration of the text, as an army and navy song. Samuel Francis Smith, a Baptist clergyman and poet, of Boston, In 1843 wrote the words of “America." which were sung to the air of the English "God Save the King." “John Brown's Body." composed by William Steffe, was sung by Sherman's troops on their march to the sea. "The Battle Hymn of tbe Republic." written by Julia Ward Howe after visiting the Army of the Potomac In December, 1861. is sung to the same tune. dfThe Battle Cry of Freedom" was written by George F. Root to aid President Lincoln's second call for troops during the Civil war. “Tramp. Tramp, Tramp." by the same author, became known during the war as “the song of hope." Henry Clay Work’s song, “Marching Through Georgia,” is regarded as commemorating one of the greatest military feats of the conflict. “When Johnny Comes Marching Home” was written by Patrick S. Gilmore, under the pen name of "Ixmls lambert"

Library Notes By ALICE MANN.

“Wake Up and Live!” by Dorothea Brandie. This book published Feb ruary 28th of this year, has already proved itself one of those publications that is destined to affect the lives of thousands of people. Its central theme: “Act As If It Were Impossible to Fail," affected its reader oven when this book was in manuscript form. After that time the young lady who typed it for the printed, did what she always wanted to do.—Give up her job and work foi herself. Two months later she had her own typewriting agency, employing three girls to help her. Ever since its publication, both the author and the publisher have had a steady stream of letters attesting to the minor (and at times major) miracles which this book has wrought. “The Thinking Reed”, by Rebecca West. This is a novel to be recommended for its sheer entertainment value; for it is a light, satirical and witty comedy by an Englishwoman, who is well known for the malicious barbs of her phrasing. It is the story of a wealthy young American widow, who broke off from a, violent and humiliating liaison with a hand-

some but petty Don Juan, expecting to marry a gentlemanly American millionaire; but who, in order to save her face, when she was not proposed to by the American as she expected, accepted the proposal of a fat and somewhat fatuous French industrialist. This hasty marriage, however, turns out to be fairly successful because the husband is adoring and the heroine comes to have a great affection and loyalty for him. They are drawn into the cesspool of the aimless, wealthy society parasites of the Riviera and Monto Carlo, and this affords Miss West an excellent opportunity to exercise her vitriolic gift of comment and caricature. Because of Miss West’s literary reputation and because the novel is engagingly readable, it will be one of the books which you must read and be able to comment upon. “Gaudy Night” by Dorothy L. Sayers. "Gaudy Night” which gives this new full-length mystery its title is a night of special significance at Oxford University, where the chief

events of the story take place. In the solution of the mystery created during, or after, the celebrations of “Gaudy Night,” Lord Peter Wimsey plays his usual essential role. This mystery is also a novel. This novel is also a romance, culminating in a moment as delightful for Lord Peter as for Harriet Vane. Comment of London Times Literary Supplement: The inter play of interests, of psychology, and detection, is so subtle and well-ordered that “Gaudy Night" stands out even among Miss Sayer’s novels.
