Railroads are handling almost as many cars of freight as in 1919. In the first six weeks of 1921 (lat- est figures obtainable) the number of cars loaded with freight on all Amer- ican railroads was 4,796,883. Com- pare this with 4,927,483 cars loaded in the corresponding period of 1919, Pessimists retort that the average car may be only partly loaded. Here's something they can't explain: Huge Bank Clearings, These - are averaging less than a year ago but bigger than 1919.

Stanley-of the Savings bank, and Charles Karali of the Vic- tory Lunch is awarded the dollar for his quick action in first identifying the profile. As usual there were a number of people who guessed wrong, but there were not a sufficient num- ber of guesses naming one individual to warrant assumption that Mr. Stan- ley looks like anyone else. “It was a fine picture of Mr. E. N. Stanley of the bank” wrote one of our corre- spondents. It did seem to be very much like him. Those who guessed correctly were, Charles Karoli, J. E. Cromwell, Al- bert Helm, C. Morehead, Henry W. Rice, Agnes Forsyth, Henry W. Grott, R. Mori, Alice G. Long, A. L. Rob- inson, Mrs. J. A. Spinetta, Mrs. C. B. Stanley, Louis Miller, Mrs. Howard Draper, James Hewett, Robert Leg- horn, C. Wallin, Roger Barnes, M. Graesser, Charles Newton, E. Lois Mills, Virginia Gordon, Paul L. Stahl, Howard Stevens, Jennie Carlson, Anna Carlson, and Nellie Backlin.
