In retaining the women after the war the management announced that records of the " company showed that the moter- ottes had operated the cars with fewer accidents and more efficien- ey ‘than had the men who for- merly were employed. The trac- who are thrown out of work by the suspension of service. The pleasant smiles and jolly| firnungl of the uniformed mot-! ’ump, while considered an at- traction by the company, were not sufficient to counteract the inroads of the automobile which rought a gradual decline in thej mbsr of persons using street I‘I.

Its bow will cleave ice 25 inches thick. ! Thirty 42-foot railroad cars, a dozen automabiles. and 50 pas-' sengers is the capacity load of the great ferry, which has been leased by the Wabash Rallroad, | its aqwners, to the Ann Arbor Railroad. i With the completion of the! ferry . railroad men recall the first attempts to ferry I'Ilfll'ol(ly cars agross Lake Michigan. The. lake was a serious barrier to! freight shipments from Wiscon-: sin and the northwest to Michi- gan and the industrial east, sinee it was necessary to skirt its; southern extremity. Thirty-five years ago, two “tubs” were put into commission to carry a few cars between Wis- consin - points and Frankfort,, Mich. The service has been built from that beginning until vire tual floating roundhouses sail the lake. The “Wabash” is deseribed in the Marine Review as 380 feet long and with a beam of 57 feet, six inches, It fears no ordinary ice that sends other ships to port. made all Pirty should i | crimes, Mrs. Luxurious cabins for women, a men’s smoking room and dining and wireless telegraph rooms are improvements on the vessel.
