Railway association.
As no city fcaa a convention hall

thorne, aucietary of division S, A:n
erlcn Railway assocla.lon, ho pro
poses the erection of a teuipo.ary
structure to accommodate the 25 or
more railroad bodies under tho j
plans. Another suggestion is to
hold a central exposition in ChL-ngg
with a number of smaller cclebra-
tlons held simultaneously in othar
cities, making Chicago the center
of a great railroad centennial wheel.
American railroads will partici
pate lc 1925 in the English cele
bration of the opening of the first
railway In the world, conducted by
the International Railway congress,
but It la the desire of the Ameri
can Railway association also to com
memorate the American centennial,
which comes in 1928.
The trackage of the American
roads, according to the interstate
commerce commission, Is 376,992
miles, not Including switches and
terminal lines. According to.theso
same figures, there are now in
operation approximately 70,000 lo
comotives, 2,500,000 freight cars
nd 65,000 passenger cars.

In the United States prior to 182s.
vthey were . not common carriers."
says ' the Chicago Association of
v Commerce, Interested in the plans
for commemoration. "When Charles
Carrpll of Carrollton, one of the!
signers of the declaration of indo-i
pendence, drove the first spike at!
Elllcotfg Mills. Md.. for the' first j
seven miles 'of railway between
Vinegar bill ' and Baltimore, he
helped to establish the Baltimore
& phio, which began operating
trains In 1830.
"In 1828, Horatio Allen went to
England and contracted for four
steam locomotives to be built by j
George Stephenson. 'America' was
the first steam . locomotive to be
seen in the western hemisphere.
It' was placed on blocks at New
Tork ln; January, 1829, and was
exhibited to an awe-struck public
for three months. i
"But tho 'Stourbridge Lion' was ,
the first locomotive actually to run
on metal rails. It was used byi
tho Dclcware & Hudson, which at
that time was primarily a canal,
company."
. The railroad centennial will show
how railway, transportation has I

100 in the Shade
or 10 below Zero!
One hundred degrees in the shade or ten
below zero, meat deliveries to your retailer
go steadily on, so that you may be assured
of just the kind and quality ;of meat that
you desire. . i
No city is so far removed from live stock
production that it cannot receive its regular
supply of fresh meats.
Compare this with the meat supply of
thirty or forty years ago. Summer weather
then meant salt or pickled meats in the
country, and a limited variety of fresh meats
in most cities.
Refrigeration, developed by scientists,
has made it possible for Swift & Company,
and other packers, to prepare fresh meat3
and ship them long distances in refrigerator
cars, so that today, without regard to heat
or cold, meat reaches your dealer fresh,
clean, and wholesome.
In addition to the frenh meats thus avail
able, Swift & Company prepares a variety
of tempting meats for hot weather:
Swift's Premium Cooked Ham, mild and
sweet, smoked over hard wood fireo, is
always delicious.
Swift's Premium Frankfurts, from our mod
em sanitary kitchens, offer a choice blending
of meats and spices.
Swift's Sausage Specialties and Swift's Dry
Sausage, ready to serve, help lighten the
housewife's summer task.
In addition to these, a score of other
Summer Specialties are made available by
Swift & Company's research and develop
ment work. ' ' '
