than the Immediate present, for resulta. On this basis It la not »asy to understand why the Reading Railroad Should want to abandon Its 8m Isle City branch at thi* time. It may be that the railroad managers win argue that they have waited twenty years to get results which have failed to materialise. This may be true, but in answer to this claim S can reply. "What have you done to get remitsT Have you made any efforts through adequate service to attract patronage to your road?” One slow train each way a day with a long wait at a junction point !s not the kind of servlet that attracts patronage to a road, and that la the kind of service the RMdlng has given 8m Isle City. So If the road has failed to get results it guilty of contributory negllgca But throwing aside all recriminations and the past, let us come to the

Where Is the Heading's bosirew scouts? Is that road so tar betaine tbe trend of events that It has failed to realise that 8m Isle City •'has now been discovered?” as a prominent resident phrased it to us some few

seks since.

8m Isle City has been in a slough. For various psychological reasons the fates have not smiled on her In the past as kindly as on some of our neighbors, but that la the past. The sun of a brighter day has dawned and 8m Isle City is forging to the front and Is going to forge ahead taster. Even our own residents are unaware of tbe rapidity with whlc u lots are being bought by people who vision the future and are ready to reap the harvest.

Those who complain against the Increasing cost of government, probably will voice strong objection to the action of Congress In trying to raise its own pay as well as the psy of the members of the Cabinet. As a fact the proposed Increases would mshe little difference In the public expenditure.

such robberies.
