Ideal pot Wri. for toldM, CABf Jt DBVTTT R.R. Crews HERE is the mo3t modern method of constructing interior walls and ceilings available for practically any type of building. Actual installations have proved it Ss quicker more economical more permanent than old methods. Solidon for Walls and Ceilings makes it possible.

You've never seen or heard of anything like it be-, fore. ust one thin coat of Solidon 1-16" to 1-8" thick is necessary-over insulation board, plaster board or other wall boards, or over brown coat plaster as applied on hollow tile, gypsum block, brick and other fireproof construction. Solidon builds walls and ceilings that resist cracking abuse the effects, of fire and water. You can have this modern wall or ceiling at no greater expense. In fact, it is likely to cost you less than the old method of construction.

smooth like plaster or textured like plastic paint. The same thin coat of Solidon that makes the wall or ceiling can also itself supply the finish, or it can be lacquered, painted or papered. The three important points How can one coat of Solidon do all this? The reason is the extraordinary strength of the material far greater than that of any, material for' the same purpose you ever heard of. That strength now means savings of time, material and money in construction which before have been impossible. Here's another unusual 'quality; Solidon is used, interiors are ready to finish in 48 hours unless the weather is very humid and atmospheric conditions are unusually bad.

Solidon sets so rapidly that paint or paper finishes can be applied almost immediately with full assur-. ance that these finishes will not be damaged by moisture coming out of walls and ceilings months later. If Solidon supplies the finish, without further decoration, the job is completed immediately after its application. 13 when thousands of baskets of food and fruit, boxes of candy, toys, and greeting cards, were distributed. The Christmas work done by the Aid last season was the greatest in its history.

Records show that during the holiday period a total of 3211 families were visited, 2482 baskets of food distributed," 7493 stockings and toys' presented to children, and 4631 bouquets of flowers, boxes of candy and cigars given to sick or injured Pennsylvania Railroad people. More than 612 greeting cards were sent to pensioners and shut-ins, and a total of 85 checks for various amounts were presented td the needy ones. A total of $17,154.35 was spent during 1927 in this Christmas cheer work. 198,608 Members Membership in the Women's Aid, at the close of 1927, stood at 196,608. While slightly below the figure of 1926, due to reductions in the railroad's working forces, this membership included a representative from practically every Pennsylvania Railroad family.

The organization now has on its membership lists somewhat better than one member for every employe on the railroad's rolls. The report of the, Eastern Region shows a greater volume of work done in 1927 than during the previous year. A otal of $80,701.77 was expended for relief work in the Region last year, or $13,640.14 more than in 1926. The funds on hand at the close of the year amounted to $59,865.21. A total of 4812 families were aided in 1927, an increase of 144 over the previous year.

Mrs. C. S. Associate Director of the Aid and wife of the Regional in her section of the Annual Report states that she is proud of the work done in the Eastern Region, and in transmitting the report wishes to embrace the opportunity of extending her sincere thanks to all who took part in making it possible. Altoona ReDOrt The Altoona Works, which includes Woman's Aid organization separate and distinct from the Regional activities, submitted a very gratifying report of work accomplished last year through Mrs.

P. G. Grimshaw, wife of the Works Manager. A total of 697 families were visited or aided in 1927 by i the membership of 12,677. A total of $10,176.85 was expended for relief, or an increase 1 of $2970.38 over similar expenditures made during 1926.

The Women's Aid of the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1927 completed its eighth year of existence under its "present name. It was, however, for three years previous to this a unit in the Pennsylvania Railroad Women's Division for War Relief, whose object was to care for the home interests of employees who were serving in the American military forces during the World War. In 1920, after the termination of the war, this unit, which vas composed largely of the women of the Operating Department of the Railroad, was continued under the name of Women's Aid of the Pennsylvania Railroad, to be a permanent association for the purpose of keeping alive the spirit of friendship and mutual helpfulness among Pennsylvania Railroad families, and of. rendering practical assistance where required, ENGINEERGOES ON PENSION LIST After he applied the air, stopped his locomotive and climbed down from the engine at the Pennsylvania Railroad roundhouse, last night; Harry J.
