Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and Grampy Hoppytoad and Little Ned, it isn't a speck of fun being a long-nosed witch. I wish you could help me, but I am afraid if you do not run for home as fast as you can go, the Magician will find out you are here and will work magic on you as lie did me." "He has worked magic on us," Raggedy Ann laughed, "but we are not afraid of any mean old Magician .and if he captures us. we will escape sure pop!" "Ha!" the ugly witch said, "maybe he will raise an invis ible wall about you as he did me. I cannot escape, for when ever I try to run away I bump right smack dab into the in visible stone wall. And long, long ago I gave. up trying to escape." "But we came riding right up here without striking an in- CH1LOQUIN CHll.OQl'IN. May 3 William Crawford. run bar of tspraau.

Motor transportation is cutting into the earnings of most of the railway lines in England so seriously that new agitation in favor of nationalization of the lines is de veloping. This must interest American railroad execu tives, railroad employes, and railroad security holders. We have a similar problem here. Probably it is more serious in England because the territory involved is much more congested, and the hauls correspondingly shorter, with consequent advantages to motor competition. But American railroads are nevertheless suffering to some extent from automobile competition, and we may find some profit in studying the situation in England. One railroad in California several years ago found its passenger traffic between San Francisco and Los An geles, a distance of about 500 miles, so seriously reduced by the competition of fast bus lines over the state high ways that it finally bought the controlling interest in the bus company. Local shippers around almost every, mar ket center in the country have noticed a steady increase in the number of motor trucks carrying milk, vegetables, and even stock, which formerly were shipped entirely by rail. Suburban passenger trains may be carrying as many commuters as formerly, but if so it is only because more persons are living in the suburbs. Certainly thousands of persons who otherwise would bs using the trains are now driving to work in automobiles. One may move from a flat in Indianapolis to a flat in Chicago, or even from a flat in Chicago to a home in Detroit with a motor van to day almost as easily as one would move from 48th street to Pratt boulevard. , And they hi e doing it. Tha railroads are losing that business. Probably as roads and motors continue to be im proved they will lose more. It is a problem which is likely to affect earnings, security values, and employment. The English railways are meeting, or attempting to meet', the problems in various ways. It is through study of their methods that we may taka some profit. So far those methods have been chiefly toward the reduction of expenses to offset the reduced business and revenue. They are reducing train crews and clerical staffs. They are negotiating with trades unions to submit to wage cuts, or to remove some jurisdictional restrictions which in crease expenses and reduce production. Later on, as the problem grows even more complex and serious, they may alter rates to meet it, or remove trains, or consolidate services, as necessity may require. We in America have not yet reached the point of doing any of those things. But we are approaching a point where we may have to do so. It will be well if executives, workers, and security holders alike give the subject consideration, and adjust themselves in so far as possible to changes which seem likely to become inevit able. 0 ADVERTISING CAME HIGH, BUT SHELBY WINS Two years ago Shelby, Montana, holding its aching head after the Dempsey-Gibbons bout, was very sour on advertising. The town had gone broke trying to use a championship bout to make the world its billboard. Never again, said Shelby. But Shelby has a different answer now, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Shelby has laarned that advertising even such costly advertising as that which broke the town in 1923 pays, and pays well. Mrs. James A. Johnson, wife of the mayor of Shelby, now visiting in San Francisco, tells that city that the invest ment was the most profitable thing the town ever did. The advertising did put Shelby on the map, and has kept it tnrre ever since. Shelby, says Mrs. Johnson, is prospering and grow ing. The publicity is got out of the fight publicity good. bad and indifferent made the town. The lesson, says Mrs. Johnson, made tha citizens of Shelby enthusiastic advertisers of their own buHineM as well as of their com monity. That, she adds, has gin, the place an extraor risible stone wall except way, way back in the woods. That surely is not the stone wall you find when you try to escape, is it?" "Oh, no," the witch replied, "the invisible stone wall just seems to spring right up in front of me, no matter where I happen to be when I try to escape. Sometimes it is here, close to my little sfcapty, sometimes it is farther away in the woods. but it is always there when I try to escape." Tha poor witch began sob bing again, so Raggedy Andy gave her three more oret.els which he had picked from the H pretzel bush. After eating the pretzels, the witch felt ever so much better, and Grampy Hop pytoad said:: "Mrs Witch, what would happen if we all caught hold of hands and ran with you and tried to escape?" "Why. the invisible stone wall would come right un in front of us and then you would be made a prisoner, too, I guess," the poor witch replied. "Less see!" Raggedy Ann mused, as she sat down and ran her rag hands up through her yarn hair, "maybe I can think of some way so that you may escape from the mean old Magician." "Ha, ha, ha!" a harsh voice laughed, "just, you try it and .ee what you will get!" And out in front of them walked a ;oldier. Anyone could tell in a moment that he was the rnagician s soldier, because hj had a lonir nose. "Anyway," the soldier said, "the magician does not cart- to have you Raggedys here, so I have been sent to fight you with my long, sharp sword. If you do not start to run when I count three, I shall whack off your noses." 'Any way, we haven't any noses," Raggedy Ann said. 'That makes no difference to me," the soldier rerlipr! "T shall cut them off just the same." He drew his long, sharp sword and whisked it through the air, and Grampy Hoonvtoad crawled under a large stone and hid. Raggedy Andy was not afraid, though. He picked up a long stick, just as long as the soldier's sword, and gave the soldier a hard whack whirh sent his helmet flying up in the air. Then before the soldier could turn around, Raggedy Andy whacked him so hard upon the back, the dust flew, and the soldier dropped his sword and ran howling through the woods. Then Raggedy Andy picked up the soldier's sword and laughed softly to himself, for the long, sharp sword was made of rubber, and wouldn't cut anything. So when th r,lH,, returned in a moment with three other soldiers to help him' capt-ure me naggeays, Kaggedy Andy threw down the sol dier's sword and with his long stick whacked the soldiers so hard they all ran howling away. "Good for you, Raggedy Andy," the witch said. "Now if you will come inside I will make you some lemonade and give you some ginger bread." tne itaggeays tomorrow.) GLOVERS Scholarship Contest Miss Marion West wins 1,000 votes for this week, selling the most Merchandise Books. Miss West is a Klamath Falls girl, and a senior at high school. The high school as well as her many friends are backing her, and she has a splendid chance to win. Miss Ruth Crocker still leads. She is backed by the railroad men, and that accounts for her good showing. Kenneth Caldwell of Merrill has the record of selling the most books so far in the contest, and is running a close second. Below is the standing for this week.
