AN ODE TO THE FORD.
0, the Ford! the Ford!
Tis the car for me,
The best old car
I ever did see,
Wen e’re it rains
It takes you there
While the others stop
You don’t know what to do,
When your old Ford stops
You can inker and fuss
The old Ford stands solid
And don’t give a cuss.
Oh, out in aFord
When the weather’s wet
Just bid you adieu,
We’ll be back; don’t fret.
When we get to a hill
That is wet and slick
Just you out idlers.
And get out quick,
Get to the rear, boys,
Give her a push
Never mind your Sunday shoes
Going in this slush
But while you arq shoving
Just solemnly swear
That you’ll never leave your homr
Unless the weather’s fair.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL SYSTEM HOLDS RAILROADING
UNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllHIIIIIimilllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
IS AS ATTRACTIVE NOW AS EVER
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiii
Right now, when optimism in al! branches of industry is needed more than
ever before, we regict to note an unorganized but none the less effective effort to
make rai.way work appear unattractive to our young men. Non-milway men have
exprersed discouraging views, and even some railway officers have lent their opinions
to this unprogressive effort. B'cr the most part, fortunately, these views are merely
opinions wiothout a statistic in support.
We, of the Illinois Central System, do not subscribe to these pessimistic
opinions in any single particular. We believe—indeed, we know—that the present
day complexity of railway organization demands men better trained and more re
sourceful than ever before, and that opportunities for advancement, to the right men,
are as good as they ever were.
There is danger, however, that, although unfavorable opinions of railway
work are false, constant reiteration may result in their acceptance as fact, and some
promising young railway men may be side-tracked into other missions of less benefit
to themselves and to the public. Any business is largely what you make it. Railway
men should point out how attractive their business really is.
What other present-day business have greater romance, better compensation
and swrifter chances for advancement than railroading? These three factors—op
portunity, compensation, adventure—are the lodestones that draw young men today _
as truly as they did tbeir fathers twenty, thirty or forty years ago. What h»s rail
roading lest in these respects that other businesses have gained?
As construction of new lines, with consequent opening of new territory, has
almost ceaBcd, peihfTps feme of the romance has faded out of railroading. The day
of the empire builder is past. But have other businesses fared better? What com
peting industry has more adventure, even today? Only on the frontiers of civiliza
tion, which have crept far cutslde cur immediate problem, wil you find the great
adventures again—and out there, the chances are, you will find the railroader, next
to the soldier perhaps, the envied man.
In place of the old frontiers we have something far more productive of op
portunities for service—a large population busy in the future development of our
country. In this development the railroads play a part of tremendous importance,
for business of every kind is dependent upon adequate transportation. In providing
that tranrportation at minimum cost and at the same time improving and enlarging
the transportation p ant, to keep it abreast with the country’s growth, the present-day
railway man has a problem bigger than his grandfather and his father faced in the
days of pioneer railroading, and he is better paid.
But how about advancement? Has a young man in railway work a chance
as good as those in other lines? Will merit find its own place at the top? We
believe no other business offeiC better opportunity for advancement to the young
man who insists upon advancement. Inertia won’t push him to the top any more
today than it would forty years ago, but his boss’ job is always just in front of him,
and the pursuit is still the same old game.
The young men who are now coming a'ong in railway service don’t know
how much about the conditions that prevailed a generation ago, and we dcubt that
many of them care. All thrt a young man who has the right kind of stuff in him is
concerned about is the problem of tackling the task confronting him today, and he
doesn t care a rap about hew somebody did the job before. He htis his own future
to carve—and many young railway men are carving theirs rapidly today.
For example, of the official positions on the Illinois Central System, 85 are
held by men less than 30 years of age, 122 are he'd b ymen between 30 and 35 years
of age, and 213 are held by men between 35 and 40 years of age. Three of the
executive positions are held by men less than 40 years of age. This proves that op
portun ty still exists in the railway business. The best man will seize it, as he alw^vs
d d and alwr js will. Tbe seme effort wins in rai way work as in other lines, and the
final rewards compare favorably with those in most competing industries.
The editor of an important newspaper wrote the other day: “There is no
more interesting calling than that cf railroading. It is a man’s game, and next to
°^n as a vocation of less monotony and more adventure than any
other. This is a competent outsider’s opinion of the railway business. While we do
not agree with the exception he made, we believe it is otherwise a correct opinion.
Moreover, we believe it would be conducive to the good of the railroads if
similar opinions were atopted and expressed more frequently. We believe the con
trary viewpoint is erroneous, and its adoption by many of our citizens would be detri
mental to the railroads as well as to the public welfare.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.

DON’T KNOCK, KICK1
Knockers knock themselves over in
the end. They are pests land we
shun them as pests.
Be kicker with a purpose. Kick to
get somewhere. And kick yourself
regularly.
All the great men of history were
chronic kickers. First, they kicked
themseles into shape for great tasks.
Then they kicked for somthing and
to som purpose until they landed.
A knocker is never satisfied with
anybody except himself. A kicker is
never satisfied with himself and gets
somewhere.
