Lines Likely to Be Reopened; Nineteen Systems Proposed Controversy Washington.- - The Interstate commerce commission Is prupaing for re. sumption of hearings on the Important issue of consolidating the railroads of the United States into a limited number of systems. The com. missions tentative plan contemplates the creation of nineteen systems, into which would be incorporated all the railroads of the country. i d Henry C.

The initial hearings held by the commission have dealt with the three consolidated systems proposed for the southeast. The ma. Joity of the main lines that would be affected by the proposals for that region either entered violent protests or suggested different consolidations. The controversy resulting from the order of the supreme court of the United States directing disolution of the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific propeties will be injected into the hearings to be held by the com mission.

The dictionary defines friend as One loving or attached to another: an intimate acquaintance; a favorer. This same dictionary defines sport as One who wears ostentatiously in public; as, to sport a watch or cane; to have a certain manner; as, to sport a smile; one who spends lavishly. So a true friend brings to our mind one who it willing and glad to assist you in any way possible, through prosor perity reverses, in health and in sickness; one who conies into your home and somehow Feems to fit in and you like to see them come; one with whom you can exchange confidences, knowing it will be held sacred. A sport brings to mind one who dresses conspicuously, is boisterous in his actions, spends money freely on those thngs which make a show and whose friendship is fleeting. How often we have heard the expression Oh, be a sport! meaning, do the daring, expen-sh- e thing, the thing which, in most instances our better self tells us is not proper or safe to do.
