The driver about to turn is asked to extend the left arm outward and upward as in the case of the right turn, but the index finger should. point in tie direction of. the turn or slightly downward from the direction of the arm in general. In other wuras, use the left arm to indicate that a turn is about to be made and the index fin- ger to indicate whether that turn will be right or left. The great danger in giving the arm signals indicated here is the chance that a driver may ome confused and give the wrong elynat, or may change his mind at the last moment and fail to do as ho indi- cated. The effect might be disas- trous, should a leading givea right turn signal and then swing to the left. ——— a Tell the Advertiser —“Saw It in The Tribune, | All over the country they’re look- ing at other cars in the field of this new Special Six Sedan—and then buying the Nash product.

DETROIT, Mich., Sept. (United Press.)-The first. three of the 199 shipping board vessels to be turned into land conveyances by Henry Ford are expected to come to anchor at the River Rouge plant next week. 3 ‘The crafts will be in tow of one of the séven ocean going tugs bought from the government by the Detroit manufacturer. Thereafter the others of the 149 lake size ships will be brought to the Rouge docks and when a few of them are on hand the work of ripping them apart swith’ acetylene and electric torches will begin. The fifty iarger vessels of the ogean going type will be scrapped at ester, Pa., or some other point and the steel sheets shipped to the Roupe plant. A few probably will be equipped with Diesel engines and put into service as part of the com- pany’s ocean going fleet. The Ford Motor company will or- ganize a force from its regular em- ployes to tear down the vessels. Estimates are that the work will require eighteen montis. Ships Sliced Into Strips. The method to be followed in junk- ing this unusual number of ships will be to strip the boats to the water line, huge cranes carrying the big steel strips away to the furnaces. The hulls will be towed to a small dry dock and chopped up there. In this manner ship after ship by a steady process will be reduced ta in- numerable slices of steel. The steel 2— a4 a can be remelted and used to serve[ Behind this steady growth any purpose Ford desires, None of the lake ships or ma- chinery may be used for carrying purposes on the water but may be utilized in any manner on land. The machinery probably will be con- verted for work in the Ford fac- tories. ——— PAIGE-JEWETT GROWTH ONE OF MARVELS OF THE AUTO INDUSTRY The automobile industry abounds with stories of huge sums made dur- ing the last several decades. One au- tomobile magnate, Harry M. Jewett, president of the Paige-Detroit Motor Car company, once refused a block of stock in the Ford Motor Car com- pany which Mr. Ford subsequently bought and paid a price said to be $30,000,000. Several years after refusing the chance to buy this stock for some ten or twelve thousand dollars, Jewett saw the mistake he had made. That was seventeen years ago. The result was the founding of the Paige- Detroit Motor Car company. Less than $100,000 was invested in the enterprise. The factory was an old plant formerly used for the man- ufacture of drugs. Three hundred and two cars were built that first year. Teday, the assets of the company have grown to $17,500,000. The stock- holders. have been paid a fair re- turn on their money and many have made small fortynes through the say- ing of the many extra shares of stock gained through stock dividends. The old drug factory was abandon- ed within a few years. The growth was steady. The present day factory equipment consists of sixteen modern buildings with more than a million square feet of floor space. performance record positively unique in America’s, motor car a annals ed e es e e e e . e e . e e now emphasized by Fremen SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1925 CH has been the same organization of men from President Jewett on down. They gained steadily in experience until today the Paige executives stand out as leaders in manufacturing and merchandising. “We have always had one idea in mind,” states Mr. Jewett. “That is ‘how can we make them better.’ And til this year our sales will total about 50,000 Paiges and Jewetts.” STORAGE BATTERIES Down, Balance in 80 da: Exchange Price $12.50 an up W.
