Car Record Department.
The Lackawanna Car Itecoid de
partment, which was so soilously af
fected by the loss of their i coords in
the Lackawanna avenue fire recently,
is now in ship-shape i tinning older in
their new quarters over the First Na
tional bank, and in fact, everything
seems to lie in better shape than ever
before. Several additional clerks have
been added, and it is a veritable bee
hive of industry.
J'nder the cflicient direction of P. J.
Sweeney, the obliging head of the de
partment, the records are kept in a
faultless manner, and Mr. Sweeney is
as popular with the boys as was his
worthy predecessor, Mr. Sproule, who
is now chief clerk to Acting Superin
tendent of Car Service M. JJ. Casey.
