The conductor noticed a young couple both of whom were appar* •ntly quite flustered and the young roman was nervously rearranging her disheveled hair. Thinking to put them at ease, the conductor remarked pleasantly: “Did >u know that the tunnel we just ime through cost $12,000,000?” "Did it?” inquired the girl. Then she added after a pause, “well it worth it.” TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM RE. GINS NEW ERA SAYS CENTRAL MEAD That this country’s transportation system is at the beginning of an era of marked development and change is the assertion of President John J. Pelley of the Central of Geor gia Railway in a statement published today. Declaring that new agenta of transportation, the automobile and the aeroplane, are supplementing efficiently such established agenta as the railroads and steamships, he pre dicts that proper co-ordination of these will make America’s transporta tion system even better than before. “Change# n the transportation situ ation become increasingly apparent” says Mr. Pelley. “The railroad re mains the principal means of moving freight or passengers in volume, or between distant points, but more and more persons are using automobiles and busses, particularly for short dis- tances. Little local or short haul passenger traffic is now handled by the railroads. In 1927 the Central of Georgia handled fewer passengers than in any year since 1901, and 1928 shows still further declines.” Discussing economies necesrary be- j cause of decreasing passenger re- ceipts, Mr. Pelley says that the Cen tral of Georgia and many other rail roads have had to propose the elimi nation of certain local trains. These trains whose limited patronage TO HOLDERS OP Third Liberty Loan Bonds Tha Treasury offers i The new bonds will bear interest from July 16, 1928.

This Mr. Pelley attributes to use of ether means of transportation, automobiles and buss es, by persons formerly using the trains. Neither freight service nor any other branch of railroad opera tion is to profitable as to produce surplus earning* to apply against the deficit caused by operation of self-Mipporting trains. Unless these trains can he eliminated, he says, the deficit must be met through abandon- ment of necessary improvement maintenance work, curtailment of purchases of needed equipment, or similar undesirable economies. "To prevent wasteful duplication of service, the Transportation Act prohibits a railroad from building a new line until it proves the proposed service is necessary” states Mr. Pelley. “This common sense provis ion should govern not noly new ser vice but the continuance of establish ed service for which patronage indi cates no real necessity. There is no e justice in requiring a railroad to continue such service than in re quiring a bus or truck line, or in fact any other public utility, to main tain service which the public does not use to such an extent an to make it self-supporting.” Jewelry Sale ’p July 5th to'Aug. 1st.

He is Reginald Himes, and undertaker's assistant, and doc tors declare that his glass-eating is perfectly “straight,” with no decep tion. Strong teeth and tough tissues make it possible. Fourteen years ago Himes acci dentally bit of the end of a clinical thermometer. He enjoyed the taste! Later he sneaked off with tumblers, which he nibbled at during recess and before dinner time, while other school-boys were “hooking” jam from the family pantries. Himes is always the life of the party with his glass-eating stunts. dollar rill rad luck One and two dollar bills, omens of ill luck to desert rata pad miners, are scorned in the vast sagebrush, reach es of southern Nevada, Banks do not crary them to cash email checks or to make change, and most business houses refuse to place any piece of currency under>5 inihe cash register.
