Director General Hines foresees big freight traffic in the coming months in the orders he issues increase the number of freight cars by rushing work on the nmew ones and having all these out of repair put into shape for immediate use We need to do everything we 2n to prevent freight congestion for 1 jam of fall and winter traffic will soon be upon us. This winter we will not have troop movements to ciog up the raflway service as they did a vear 2go. for nearly all will have been demobilized and sent back into civil life before the year is past. But the export trade promises to be heavy and that will mean urgent call for all the ng stock available. Our domestic raffic probably will be larger than al, especially if there is a strong forward movement in delaved build- ing comstruction work. The movement of materials for such activity calls for large car tonnage, since the freight is to bulky. Acordingly, there will be fewer ca: perhaps, than we ordinarily could count on Furthermore, the fuel problem will be a big facter. Un- = coal has been bought and laid in by the householders on “a larger scale than usual, we may look for an ex- ceptionally large demand for cars at the anthracite mines. In the bitumi- nous department the conditions prom- be disturbing. for it is obvious that the quantities of coal that must be carried to tidewater are vastly greater this year than at any time com- | about | The | | since the United States emtered the war.

Quite often is it the case that the transfer of such val- u Prie securities from one broker’s of- fice to another, or from one bank to another, is delegated to a boy. That he is able to do all that is required in connection with the delivery of the package cannot be questioned but too little consideration appears to be givén to the responsibility that is in- volved therein. It was only a few davs ago that a New York broker lost a considerable sum through the disappearance of the one entrusted with the Amdie of bonds, and it was this same house that had but a short time before ex- periended a similar though greater loss. In view of the failure to profit by the experience which demonstrated the risk involved in employing boys for such service, there is the dispo- sition to feel that the loser got what he deserved. One loss would appear to be sufficient to show the danger of delegating such important, (h~ugh easily executed. duties to ome @ ose honesty might be easily swept aside by the alluring prospects of getting. away with a large amount of secur- ities, whether such action originated in his ming pr the mind of another knowing the character of the work that he did and about which he might {have been brazging. Invariably it is the low pay for which boys in such service work that is responsible for the practice of em- ploving boys rather than tried —and trusted employes, but it ought not to require many cases of the kind refer- red te convince that it is a penny- wise and pound foolish. poli < THE CORPUS CHRISTI LOSS. - Tropical storms, . hurricanes and earthquakes are no respectors of peo- {ple or promer They raise havoc with whatever lies in their path as ie again shown by the lage 1oss of life ind the damage caused ‘along ‘the | coast of Texas Points along the gulf the full force of the storms that characterize that region.

The plight of -Corpus Christi like that of other stricken places calls for and will receive the assistance of the 1 of the country. The ery of hu- | manity in distress has never been dis- regarded and it will not be now. The people along the gulf coast will re- ! ceive the help that is required to meet | the conditions that they are forced to | est | deal with. It was 19 vears ago that Galveston in that same region was swept aw: {by a similar storm only to rise from ruins as a bigger and more mod- ern city, For the protection of the city a huge seawall was constructed for a distance of five miles and at height of 17 feet above mean low tide {or higher than the marks reach the destructive storms that have ited the city. Galveston has seen the importance of this bit of protection and it is not improbable that other | points along the coast including Cor- pus Christi will, following its recent experience. adopt a. similar ‘course. Such undertakings are expensive but its any expense is cheaper than such losses of life EDITORIAL NOTES. | The man on the corner says: Mind- ing another’'s business is certainly no job for a busy man. : m the way in which the soidiers in me acted it must be that they are strong believers in self determi- nation. ,.

The slishtest shadow means depres- sion, whether it liés across a beautiful flower in the garden or the good cheer f a human heart. It is only a litfle ing, but it has the power to a«o&_ the work of the sun, or to debase the epirit of love and righteousness in the human soul. We must have a guard against the distdrting little shadows in. the ‘garden and in the heart. or things designed to be beautiful will become perverted. # - The thing | have not seen this sum- mer is a young wren. The wrens first occupied the box on the. crab-apple tree and were feeding a brood in June: In July they had changed to the old house in the sekel pear tree, and at mid-August I noticed the male again carrying food., which indicated that'a second brood was being raised. The last time I heard the wren, trill was on Sept. 2d. I have watched the houses closely . for the entire season, and have not seen a fledgling; and with them breeding on the place for 0 years I have not seen one. Had I isen at dawn and watched, paid the price of the knowledge, I probably should have learned something of their manner of training and departure. When one explores the dahlia patch at the close of day the lazy bumble- bees all act as though they were drunk, they are so stupid' and de- fenseless. Some are asleep, for they have no hive to return -to at night: and some have been doped by enemies and have visited their last flower. There is hardly a dahlia in the gar- den that has not hidden in its petals a tiny spider, a slayer of giants, who when slumber invites the.bees to rest watches for the moment to inject the dose of poison which shall make the bee and his booty the spider's meat. Wherever thiere are pretty flowers in nature there are traps and tragedies and cannibals! Life in a little world of flowers has its dark side. The dewdrops were glistening upon fhe plants one morning when the gardener visited his seedling patch to see if any new plant-faces had open- ed to the suh to invite the bees! He took hold of a wee stem and looked a semi-double pink and white bloom im the eve and thought: “Hello, you homely child of the Pink Pearl, T should know you anvwhere! Unlike our parent in everything but color. you are worth : keepins.” Then he espied lving low in a corner a precious gem of a- bloom gleaming in_shell-pink and white, as round as a.dollar and worth twice as much. “Helio. Roundy,” he thought _to himself. ‘“since T brought your parents across the seas I have never seen from them a child as delicate and beautiful as you!” And thus the gardener identified and greeted floral children The world is full of ornithological puzzles. {Birds of a kind are not ble: ed with éxact plumage “or similar manners. Whoever has studied the sparrow of New Engiand ever found it easy to identify them. ‘Lately 1 have noticed a bird at the Ilunch counter which resembled a sparrow and acted like a goldfiinch. He was smoky gray all over, aind had a brown bar on the wings, was larger than a gold finch. but in form unlike a spar- row. He would drive the sparrows fromi the feeding boz, darting at them as I have seen goldfinchex do, and he I 1 1 would not let a sparrow feed while he was in the hox. This is a non- descript not readily sdentifled.

If any of the other birds flew to this spray it was apparent it would vield to their weight and lower ‘it so that birdie could not get a peck at the seeds, so they all sat watching the fledgling admiringly while =~ he 100k his first feast alone. The old birds’ manners reauired that they should honor the baby bird while he procecded with his lesson.

We are now enjoying the last run of the young birds of 1919. The first fledgeling goldfinch came on the sun- flowers on Sept. 2d, the next on the 7th, and now they appear daily. The young sparrows are in evidence every day-in small groups. On the. verge of the evening of the 7th.a young robin was roosted upon a big ‘sun- flower leaf apparently for the Wight.

Multi- tudes’ of the dead were found twith their mouths stuffed with straw. Three Russian famines of compara- tively recent date were among the most severe i nthe history of the country. They occurred in 1881, 1906. and 1911. During the ten years following the first of these periods of death the gov- ernment allotted nearly $152,000,000 for relief work, but the sums were not al- ways judiciously expended “Tn "1906 the government gave 40 pounds of flour a month to all persons under 18 and over 59 years of age. All peasants between those ages and infants under one year of age received no allowance, and it beeame necessary for the younger and older members of the family to share their bare pitt- ance with those for whom no provision was made. The suffering was intense and the mortality exceedingly heavy. but the available statistics are not wholly reliable. “The famine of 1911 extended over one-third of the area of the empire in Europe and affected more or less di- rectly 30,000.000 people, while 8.000.- 000 were reduced to starvation. Weeds. the bark of trees, and bitter bread made from acorns constituted the chief diet for the destitute.
