„ A rather novel „method of keeping
track of stations received over radio
has just been introduced.: The listen-
er purchases a blank book. The leaves
of this book have spaces ruled in and
on each space is the name of,a certain
station together with its location and
the wave length used. A number of
special post cards are furnished with
the book and when -the listener picks
up a station, the time and a description
of the program are noted on the post.
card. This card is then called to the
station where it is checked up with
their diaeyeaml if found correct a col-
ored stamp with the call letters of the
station across the face, is nailed back
to the listener. This stamp is then
pasted intothc alburn on the corres-
ponding space. All the principal sta-
tions are being equipped With distinc-
tive stampsand the objective of every
listener will be to have as complete
an albuni as possible.

to an outstanding railway career. The
gravity of the speeches was partly
forgotten when it was found that Mr.
Pender's club bag had been thought-
fully supplied with a powder compact
and perfume of which it was hoped
that he would make good use.- Mrs.
Pender's bag was equipped with a
splendid ebony toilet traveling out-
fit. ••
• To begin with Mr. Pender's career
it is necessary to go back 5 years to
the time when huge piles of wood,
fuel' for the odd -stacked little engines
of the time, were present at every
station. Mr. Pender, then a lad of 13
years, was employed at piling the
tenders of the old-fashioned engines
with this wood. He remained at this
work, which he began in June, 1873,
until the first of January, 1875, when
he obtainetemployment as a section --
man at7Komolca, near London. For
25 years he worked on the right-of-
way, first as a section -hand, later as
his worth ,was recognized, as a fore-
man. It was at this time, 45 years
ago, that he was married, taking for
a wife a London girl, Annie Mathe-
son, who has been with him practic-
ally throughout his whole career.
On leaving Komoka he was promot-
ed to the position as extra -gang fore:
man in the London yards. He was at
this only a short timel being transfer -
ed to Palmerston, where he was
placed in charge of the yards, in the.
early part of the plesent century. He .
was in Palmerston for four years, his
next transfer being to Wingham
where he was Roadmaster (now
known as Track Supervisor) foe 12.
years. Leaving Wingharn he was
placed again in Palmerston as super
'visorof the tracks on the Kincardine,
Durham, Palmerston and Stratfoed
branches of the Granad Trunk, later
the C. N. R. which office he filled un-
til his retirement.
In all Mr. Penders' career as a
watcher of the right-of-way he can
boast of one thing chiefly, there nev-
er was a derailment on his territory
due to the condition of the track.
Neither did he sever haV,e a man,
working under hale injured in the
course of his duty. He ascribes this
to the fact that .he never hurried or
rushed his men on a dangerous job,
Safety first was always ,a, motto 10
the front in his mind and he saw by
acting personally, that it was irrefes- Ft,
sed on the minds of his men.
Changes in railroading, have of r or
course been vitally associated with his
work. When he first entered the em-
ploy of the old Great Western Rail-
way the track laid weighed 43 pounds
to the yard, quite heavy enough to
accommodate the light engines and
trains of 1875. , Since then he has
seen the 43 pound rail replaced with
56, the 56 replaced with 65, the 65
with 79 and last ,of all, the laying of
the 8o pound rail. What has impress-
ed Mr. Pender most in' railway his-
tory is the strides that have bee;
made in the science of his life work.
The monster engines now' running
over the tracks, with all steel trains,
are immediately superior to the'power
used in '75. The trains of today are
