) i : .ions and that various branch lines of the Boston and Maine be discontinued.In an address in Boston last O .tober, Preside.Hanauer, of the Boston and Maine, declared that New England s railroads were undei obligations to aid New England industries, but that New England industries were, also, under obligations to support New England's railroads.But what should be done when communities want railroads to continue service which, because of the small patronage, means loss to the railroads?That is a question which is still to be thrashed out.The public, no dout, have some reason to demand that a railway\u2019s earnings shall be regarded as a whole and that unpaying branches shall not be lopped off simply because they are not profit showing.The problems is undoubtedly a serious one, ft question with two sides and the people are quite justified in protecting in every possible way their interests- JOHN T.REID.Sherbrooke has lost a good citizen in the passing of John T.Reid.Of Scotch descent and of sturdy Eastern Townships pioneer stock of Megantic County, Mr.Reid possessed all those qualities which make for good citizens.Many years associated with the Quebec Central Railway, he had served for a considerable period as its superintendent.Apart from this he had varied interests in the community and was always ready to do his part.In church matters and as a member of the Board of School Commissioners he was particularly active.General regret will be felt at the loss, at a comparably early age, of so excellent a man and who enjoyed the esteem of all who knew him.the radio man, and it looks like a lasting attachment.For even less is seen and heard of hirn than was the case of the actor of old.There is more food for dreams and less disillusioning reality; more aloofness and less contact than before.The Announcer is merely a voice, the actor was a voice and a body, too.Out of the voice you can make a body and a character to fit.A story I once heard of a construction engineer in China held within it wisdom of the way romance functions.Each evening in his camp in the wilds would play a battered phonograph.One rich, golden contralto voice was his favorite and he .'Miss M>orisi&eitite, R.N., is spend-j Mr.L.McGannon, who spent the iing a few days in Montreal.\t| week-end in Brockville, Ont., return- ed home yesterday.Miss Marj'prie Deacon spent I o Christmas with her parents, Mr.and ne Mrs.Frank.Deacon, over the Christmas week-end.- - , Mr.and Mrs.Gordon Armitage, made a picture in his mind of the beautiful woman Pj\u2019jdand Avenue, were in Montreal who had it.Month after month he played it each evening and the voice became idealized into his woman- On a trip to a port city he saw she was scheduled to sing that evening on a trip around the world.He heard her and saw she was fat.coarse-featured, half-intoxicated.Back at camp one evening he started to throw away the record, but didn't and one evening he got it out again and as the soft rose-petal notes thrilled through the darkness the illusion of romance returned and reality was forgotten.Lives would be pretty bare without illusions.\u2014Cpt.1927.Mrs.W.G.Montgomery and son, of Ottawa, are the guests of Mr.j and Mrs.J.E.Riggs, Magog street.* * * Miss Audrey Walker is spending the holidays in Montreal, the guest *\t* *\tI of her sister, Mrs.G.W.Lindeilius.:Mr.Frank Dudley returned Jto ¦\t,\t* * * town today, after spending Christ- !
