Pub-Quiz: Beam Me Up, Billy.

The years between 1870 and 1914 were known as the “The Great Binge”, a time when Absinthe was the drink of choice, opium was available by mail order, cocaine was an ingredient in anything from cough medicine to children’s soft drinks and a pharmaceutical company, Bayer, branded the name Heroin as a nonaddictive alternative to other opiates. 

Given all this, you might want to think a bit out of the box when asked: 


In the time leading up to the 1st World War, which organization in the U.S. provided transport for unaccompanied children at a sensationally low price?

Seems a clue is in order:

The "organization" referred to was (and is) a U.S. Federal Government agency, no less.

Guess you missed the 1st clue :-). Coca Cola is not a U.S. Government agency; I'm sure they'd like to be and given the current orange-is-the-new-black administration .... ;-)

Clue #2:

There were very strict rules regarding the children to be transported, but it was neither age, nor height, but weight: up to 50 lbs was allowed.

No, it wasn't the U.S. Army, or other armed service branch, but, with a government institution, you're very generally in the ballpark :-)

I wish I knew US history that well 

Maybe it was some health care agency?

Clue #3:

This U.S. govt. agency was not part of the military (sorry Tonaya) but its employees did (and do) wear uniforms and, at the time, were very well respected among the general population.

No, sorry, as indicated, not military (therefore no Coast Guard, no Sheriff's or Marshal's dept. no law enforcement of any kind either) but ...


Clue #4:

The members not only wear uniforms, the head of this U.S. govt. agency has the title of General (and since 2015 it's 'Madam General').
