Be Like This Man, John! Help Economize by saving material of any kind in your yard and on your section or district. John says: - "Every day I pick up articles of value, more or less, such as, air hose, spikes, washers, tie plates, rail anchors, nut-locks, bolts, scraps, etc. These I assort for future use, thus saving money for our railroad."
