On reaching | the locality of the consignee, the ’trailers are unlocked, run down a \ramp to the street and hauled by | tractor to point of delivery. The fact that the containers reâ€" main on their wheels at all times reâ€" sults in a large saving of time due! to the rapidity with which the conâ€"| tainers can be loaded and unloaded.{ On some other railroads merchandise is being shipped in special containers,| but they are lifted off the trucks.

The equipment is different from that used on any other railroad in that the metal containers for the freight are permanently mounted on running gear. An innovation in methods of handâ€" ling freight has been introduced on the Chicagoa North Shore and Milâ€" waukee railroadâ€"the North Shore lineâ€"with marked success. . The freight goes direct from the shipper to the consignee without being touchâ€" ed or even seen by the carrier. The shipper loads the freight at the facâ€" tory door and seals the car, and it is delivered at the door of the consigâ€" nee before the seal is broken or the goods handled again.

Written by John Coiton, who recentâ€" ly scored another tremendous hit with "The Shanghai Gesture," this | dramatization of Somerset Maughâ€" am‘s tale of the enervating influences of the climate at Pagoâ€"Pago, a small trading station in the South Seas, is saturated with the *lure of soft breezes, beautiful music and dark nights. It tells of the regeneration of Sadie Thompson, a strumpet from) the Philippines, who is delayed at this small island during the repair of the steamship upon which she was | bound for San Francisco, along with a fanatical missionary, an Englilhr doctor and his wife, and several other | travelers. And it also tells of the| degeneration of the missionary who} loses his own soul in the redemption of hers. It is sophisticated drama with not one anaemic moment, and | while it thrills, it does not offend., There is nothing to bring the blush to | the most sensitive cheek. And yet| it deals with the yearning of the sexes | in a surprising manner. | SHEET METAL HEADQUARTERS of merchandise was trangported from Chicago to Milwaukee by the North Shore line for a large mail drder house which has just opened a retail store in the Cream City. The entire shipment was handled in the new flatâ€" carâ€"trailer equipment in a period of little more than one week.
