only passing pleasure,
r '"•There is a greater hunger than for
food. There Is a hunger for a faith

to understand that religion is of the

Why the Street Cars
Sometimes Pass You sty
When you stand on the corner ready to board the first car that comes along and the car
moves along without waiting for you to become, a passenger, you are annoyed. You desire
to reach your destination as speedily as possible; indeed, it is often imperative that you do
so, but aside from the necessity of taking the first car, it is far from comfortable standing
out in the snow, wind and cold of winter or the torrid heat of summer.
• * * *
■_ The practice of running by passengers is not encouraged by this company. Asa matter
of fact, the' rules of the company prohibit it being done except under extreme circumstances
when it is absolutely necessary to reestablish that service wherein cars may move at reg-
L- - ' >,J; * ---i r 1
Rule 18a of the company’s rule book for the guidance of employes of the company
states:
Cars will be brought to a BTAND-BTILL at REGULAR BTOPB whenever signalled
by persons wishing to board or leavo a ear.
Rule 184 gives the exceptions and reads as follows:
THE ONLY EXCEPTIONS TO THE ABOVE RULE, when you will be permitted
to run by Intending passengers, are as follows:
Where special instructions have been issued to the contrary.
When car it crowded to the limit, and NO MORE can be accommodated.
When another car running over the tame route is IMMEDIATELY following,
meaning within ona block. . v ,
When carrying a “SPECIAL" sign for any reason.
During sever# snow storm—when you will use your best judgment.
After blockades, when you will make every other stop for intending passenger or
passengers, if closely followed by another car. -v
Under other circumstances, MOTORMEN ARE FORBIDDEN TO RUN BY PAS
„ BENGERB. . *‘\^
•The unpleasant feature of street railway transportation ia that theea exception* crop out moot fre
quently In the cold and dreary months of the year, and this despite the best efforts of the cenaclentioue
and hard-working forco of superintendent*, foremen and car operators. ; * v .
The winter now closing hae bean the severest upon the employes and property in its existence, with
a record of Interruptions varying from a half-hour stop due to trollsy wire breaking from the intense
cold to a similar lengthy gap at a grade crossing, the result of a steam train becoming stalled. N
Take this morning, for instance, with all the improved conditions of the street due to the enow hav
ing gono, did you notice how many times the street car you rode in had to alow down for the truck pr
. delivery wagon aheadf Don’t you remember some of those days in January and February when tile
motorman was clanging hie gong almost constantly as a warning to the vehicle In front? *. v
see*
Automobiles, motor trucks and heavily loaded wagons, vehicles of all sorts—occupy the car tracks,
coming even from parallel streets so that they may got an easy haul. The saving to tha horsa and the
motor la at ths expense of YOUR time. Orivers of these vehicles naturally dlallko to turn out until aoto
• V ally compelled to do *o, and •Indeed often refuse to make tyay for the street car—alt at the expense of
YOUR time. All these delays seriously Interfere with the regular scheduled service and make you late.
* , Then, too, to be reckoned with are the delays due to fires, parades, blockades at traffic intersections,
all necessitating special effort to restore the regularity of service. It should always be remembered that
people bleeks away and on either aide of you may be waiting for the tame delayed car. You are
but one of the many to be carried end all having equal rights It is necessary when delay* and Intsrrup
tlena come to be speedily ae possible place the care back at regular intervals. Bo sometimes you are
passed by and sometimes cars turn short of the regular run so as to car* for the othw man which in
‘ . 4 l another case may be you.
