RAILWAY EXPRESS PUTS AGENTS IN DORMITORIES

Everything from tags and labels to rate information on the cost of shipping a trunk to Kamchatka is supplied by the local force of the Railway Express Agency, which is meeting its annual June problem of transporting thousands of pieces of students luggage by placing a representative in each House and dormitory.

Express forces in college towns have a unique problem in the peak load occurring in June and September. The Railway Express Agency, attacks the problem with the wisdom of experience. The arrangement this year with dormitory representatives assures a smooth and unruffled handling of student baggage.

In spite of the most securely tied labels, express company officials state that once in a millenium a piece of express may lose its label, an thereby become automatically stranded, unless the sender has taken the precaution of pasting his name on the inside. The express company urges this final precaution to insure safe and expeditious handling.
