Alj this unmistakably indicates that business is

These consolidations are usually accompanied
by a fictitious valuation and stock issue—a capital

It has become a question if these combinations

Go Easy With The Toote
4Ü-
The whistle is necessary in the operation of
trains, both for signaling to train crews and as a
warping at highway crossings. Unfortunately the
sound of locomotive whistles often is an irritant to
people living along the railroad right-of-way. It
surely cannot be classed as a “ friend-maker.”
Th© tight sleeper, the father who has just lulled
his infant to sleep after having worn a path in the
carpet, *be swain who is trying to catch a few
winks of sleep before sunrise and the beginning of
h hard, day at the office, the sick person trying to
steal a few hours of rest from pain—all have a
grievance when the locomotive whistle is sounded
too long and too vigorously. And a grievance in the
middle of the night assumes larger proportions than
a grievance in the daytime. . *
. It is a characteristic of people who work at
night that they forget that most of the world is
sleeping—or trying to sleep. Newspapermen on
morning papers (and this editor has been guilty
in the past) sometimes overlook the fact that peo-
pte would prefer not to be interviewed over the
telephone at midnight. And no doubt it is the same
way with enginemen who have heavy hands on the
whistle cord.
Bnginemen have been cautioned not to sound
‘the whistle more than is necessary for safety and
’ to meet the requirements of train operation. We
know that most enginemen are considerate, and if
those who have been thoughtless in this regard Vrill
remember the other fellow there will be many more
friends along the line.—Southern Pacific Bulletin.
