The day before Christmas, while taking care of his regular duties a t the station, during which time the station and platform was packed with people who were anxiously endeavoring to locate inbound passengers or themselves seeking information in re- gard to outbound trains, George. with his usual smile, assisted in directing a num- ber of passengers to their trains or fur- nished them with information concerning inbound tralns. A stranger who had no- ticed the cheerful manner In which he answered these inquiries watched him for a short time, secured his name and de- parted and shortly thereafter a messenger boy appeared on the scene wlth a box of wool hose for George. There is no doubt in his mind but tha t there is a Santa Claus.

This is the way we do it a t north shop. Ln Monday morning. December 14, we transferred the naked boiler of engine 522 from the boiler shop to back shop. and a t 3:30 on the afternoon of the 18th we called a crew to break the engine in. We sure had to step, boys.

S. M. Berguson, gang foreman, spent Christmas w t h his parents in I<lngsville. Texas, and as "E'erg" returned with whistle and smile intact. w e judge he must have had a splendid trip.

A. C. Swineford, shop order clerk. claims he just can't hold his old bus down since he installed a new set of patented spark plugs. Why don't you put wings on her, Curt?

Al Ball. stationary engineer and sports- man supreme, was treated rather roughly by Lady Luck throughout last hunting season. A1 says he would have gotten the limit one time had it not been for the fact tha t he only took four boxes of shells with him and they didn't last long enough. Fate has further been kind to the birds and has persecuted A1 by caus- ing his dog to be ail ing all hunting: sea- son.

A. H. Schults, machinist, on his return from St. Louis, where he spent the Christmas holidays with his sisters, says it's no place for a bachelor, a s there are too many pretty girls there. Where are your eyes. Albert? They still grow them here tha t compare favorably with those in St. Louis.

Miles Marcel, pattern foreman, and Wm. Graham, inspector, a re quietly plan- ning a flshing trip for next summer. However. i t seems they can't decide whether to go to the head of Jordan or down into the hills on Pearson Creek. Wherever you go, boys, be sure to take lots of heavy tackle.

Walter Caudle. machinist third-class, was married December 25 to Miss Euia Epperson. The best of luck to you and yours. Walt. That was a good cigar.

John Watson says he doesn't find much use for a gun or hunting license anymore. I t seems tha t when John gets ready to go hunting he has to spend about two days hunting his fine haired dog.

The Maples brothers, Fred and Zack &re back on the job after a trip td Oklahoma. While there, they leased their land to an oil company and test wells a r e going down soon.

J. J. Collins, chief clerk, accompanied by his wife and daughter. made a trip to Oklahoma during the holidays t o visit with relatives there. "Joe" reports a pleasant trip.

E. W. Brown, general foreman, was "Santa" to his two boys. Everett Jr. and LeLaurin, thls Christmas a t Houston, Texas. Somebody has told i t that he broke up most of the toys playing with them before he came back.

Henry Steury, machinist, Boesn't care how much cut they make on cars, just so they stlll make the Flint Six. However, Max Neil says the Ford is the only auto- mobile. Say. Max. isn't that word "Au- tomobile" out of place in your statement?

Frank Peacock and family Were called to Mansfield. Missouri, December 24, on account of the Illness of Mrs. Peacock's mother.

Mr. and Mrs. U. L. Mason a r e the proud parents of a 10-pound boy. George Ed- ward, born Janua ry 4. Mr. Mason i s s. machinist under. E. F. Esser.

Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Burch announce the blrth of a 9%-lb. boy, born January 12. ''Papa" i s a boilermaker apprentice under Mr. Reddick.

Loren Reno. hammersmith, spent the holidays with his parents In Barry County. They must have fed Loren well, a s he gained several pounds while a t home.

The mother OK Thos. Bingham black- smith. dled January 1 3 a t Springdale. Arkansas. after h a v ~ n c been 111 for some time. A I ~ wish to express their sympathy. The blacksmiths sent a beautiful floral offering.

E. A. Harris, blacksn~itl~ third-class, s ~ e n t the holidays with relatives in Polk dounty. ~e rep6rts a nice time, but tha t there is very little game left In that vicinity.

G. L. Whitlock and wife vislted Mrs. Whitlock's parents in Wichlta. Kansas. during the holidays.

Amos Taylor, machinist third-class. was married December 24 to Miss Basle Jackson. hey now reside a t 2047 Travis Avenue. Good luck, and a long and happy married Ilfe!

On December 28. E. S. Payne. machin- [st. married Miss Ethel Fullerton. They were given a miscellaneous shower Jan& ary 14 by their friends. We wish you well. Everett.

Would like to know which foreman I t was that felt the urge of the Christmas "spirit" to such extent that he addressed a number of Christmas cards to his friends here In Springfield, just plain "City," and then mailed them a t Vinlta. Oklahoma.

SPRINGFIELD, MO. SOUTH SIDE SIDELIGHT6

EMERY H.%GUEWOQD. Reporter - The accldent prevention pennant haa

not at this tlme been awarded, but wlth the south shop boys winning pennants Is secondary to preventing accidents. We were fortunate durlng Dweinber a s we only had seven accidents, and only one in which the victim lost any time. As we have almost six hundred men em- ployed In all departments of the south shops, thla record gives us lust one-tenth, of one per cent less than oil. goal. which was 100 per cent. of course.

With due credit to all foremen and supervisors, we of the night, force feel that we are especialliy fortunate inasmuch a s James Bliscampbell, our supervisor. is very active In the prevention of accidents, as he is always on the alert for any con- dition or practice tha t Is liable to cause accidents or injury. He also makes peri- odical ~nspection of all machinetv and hand tools to see tha t they are in 'a safe condition, and a s a result we haven't had but one accident since October and it was of a very minor nature, the vlctim losing no time whatever.

We regret very much to say that F. W. Lampton, our general foreman, severed his connections n7ith the Frisco, effective the first of the year. Mr. Lampton has accepted a positlon wlth the Hunt-Spiller Mfg. Co. of Boston. Massachusetts, and will represent them In the sale of cast- lngs and steel fittings throughout the central states with headquarters a t Fort Scott, Kansas. Our best wishes for his success go with him. W. B. Xlurney is our new general fore-

man, taking the position made vacant by the resignation of Mr. Lampton. Mr. Murney needs no Introduction to either the south shops or the Frisco in general. ns he entered the employ of the Frisco a t the south shops in October. 1909, and worked his way up to the posltion of roundhouse foreman four years ago, hold- ing that position two years and for the past two years has been traveling loco- motive inspector.

Mr. Murney fs not only well qualified for hls new positlon. but Incidentally Is reunted with his first love in railroading -the South Slde Shops.

In the going of Mrs. F. W. Lampton,
