Four Crews Less on the Middle Division As a result of the falling off in freight tralfic: four freight crews on the Middle division will be taken off December 19. In furloughing the men the seniority rule will bo observed. This will finally result in twenty-four extra men going off Indefinitely. Most of the crew affected will be on the Ai toona side. Crews Nos. 261 and 264, located in Altoona, and Nos. 400 and 407 at Ty rone, wliich operate between Altoona and Tyrone in conveying freight for the Tyrone division to the terminal point, will be discontinued. On December 21 five new runs will be created and will be filled by a like number of crews to be known as Nos. 271, 272, 273. 274 and 276. There will be no increase or decrease in the num ber of employes except on the extra list. At Tyrone, a new crew known as No. 4 shifting crew, will be formed and this change will become effective on December 21. It is announced that the rearrangement of the crews is made as the result of the fact that regular crews have been called at stated periods and have been compell ed to remain idle for several hours frequently owing to the lack of work.

OUR PREPAREDNESS FOR WAR Do you know what we have got in the way of an army? Do you know what we have got with which to op pose four million trained men, which happens to be the war strength of the German army? Do you renlize that wo have only about eighty-five thous and regulars and about one-hundred twenty thousand militia? Are thoso militia trained? Why Mr. Speaker, sixty per cent of the men in the militia who are armed with a riflo do not know how to use it properly. Sixty per cent last year were unablo to qualify even as third-class marksmen. Half of that sixty per cent —thirty per cent — did not even try to qualify with the rifle. That is all we have got to defend us. What is the use of talk ing this arrant humbug any more to the country? T am telling you the truth. That is what wo have got ta face. Hut I do not blame you gentle men. i blame the inflated optimism which has led lis to believe that we can whip all creation. Mr. Speaker, as tht gentleman from California (Mr. Knhn) said, it is a fact that at last we have nearly one million modern rifles on which we cun depend. How about our artil lery? Let us see what General Wood, tile Chief of Staff, said in his report last year. He tells us of the "alarm ing conditions of shortage" in our Held artillery guns and ammunition. Present-day events are showing- that it is mighty dangerous to be weak in artillery.—"A Passage at Arms in the House," In National Magazine for De cember. BETTER GRIDDLE CAKES.
