If you have a savings account
or an insurance policy, some of
your money is invested in the
railroads. The welfare of the
railroads is of serious interest to
you.
Everyone of the 46,000,000
people holding life insurance pol-
icies is interested in railroads,
because nearly half of the re*
sources of the insurance compan-
ies are invested in railroad secur-

pride of place and German dreams

shambles where it once “goose

lights, are darkened and will be
even darker during the coming
winter. With the coal supply saved
for absolute necessities of warmth

care of itself. In dark December

a St. Louis mayor of another gene,

ain’t we?" This is the Berlin that
faces the fourth year of the war,
maybe a fifth year of struggle. It
is the Berlin that must go on read-
ing that endless list of casualties
from the battlefields of the west and
the east. It is a capital without
