Boesch, rep: resenting the Langley Associatior presented that organization's obje: tions. Reiterating contentions of the Alumni Association, the Parent- Teacher hody contended that other athletic activities of the mew schnol would ha hampered seriously by the existence on its ground of a municipal pool, and that no advantage would exist to offset the handicap, Dr. Frank W. Ballou agreed that §t would be better if the pool were placed elsewhere.

No group of men in the world symbolizes that thought more closely than railroad enginemen. Hand on the throttle of 200 tons of power, eyes on the unfolding miles of track, calm, strong, com- pletely efficient, is it any wonder that they are the object of the shy devotion of countless American boys, of the respect of every man.

The size Special Tomorrow Pennsylvania enginemen have come up through years of service on the road, years of vital experi- ence. The hundreds of miles of road “‘ahead’ are impressed in- delibly upon their minds, every tower and landmark, every mile- post and signal, every second clicked off on the shining rails. They know the route of their runs as you know your way home. Throttle and brakes, steam lines and gauges, miles of track, over them all the engineman keeps un- ceasing vigil, for your comfort, for your security. Despite wet, slippery rails, despite the tremendous ‘‘pull” necessary to start a resting train, the skill and experience of Pennsylvania enginemen cut the jolts and jars of railroad travel to the mini- mum. Almost as sensitive in their hands as an instrument of precision are the tons of gliding steel that make up the train. Hosiery Perfect Quality Chif- fon Pure Silk Hose.
