C, SIGNALS FOR SAFETY AT GRADE CROSSINGS “Pennsy” Railroad Company to Double-Wire Light and Bell Warnings in Maryland BALTIMORE, January 10.—An- nouncement was made this week by Joseph L. Wickes, transportation en- gineer of the Maryland public service commission, that the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. will double-wire all light and bell-warning signals grade crossings in Maryland, in order to make these warnings effective at all times, even in » of reverse movement of trains This decision was reached at a con- ference between Mr. Wickes, W. N. Wordrop, general superintendent of the rallroad, and George M. Smith at JANUARY 11, 1925—PART 3. flash because, due to temporary trou- ble, the westbound train was operat- ing on an exstbound track. 1f the railroad few grade cross they spend taki ould cen climinate a reless bile . dri er o B e motordom of - m ss of a handful of aytome- would be 5l R T e s e i g Doose BROTHERS TYPRPE-B SEDAN Unquestionably, the most compelling tribute to the car’s stamina is its widespread use by farmers, ranchmen, surveyors, salesmen and others who travel isolated roads in all sorts superintendent of the Baltimore di- vision. The work of double-wiring the nals will be started immediately. Sev- eral weeks will be required for pur- chase and distribution of the neces- sary material, however It is estimated there are in the nefghborhood of 40 grade crossings equipped with bells or lights in the State. Consideration of the matter of making warning signals effective, even in reverse movement of trains, was brought about by study of a recent accident in which three young re killed when their automo- ruck by a train. in that case that the At the crossing did not another safety organization house” for methods upon traflic but a and safety great national movement against traffic carelessness and lawlessness But the point is as interesting as it is novel of weather.

They have learned that these two cars—the New Paige and the New Jewett— possess a combination of qualities never before produced —permanent qualities. New power results have been engineered without enlarging the ample-size motors. Yes, and without “speeding them up.” New smoothness and silence have been created with costly balanced crankshafts, silent chain drive for pump and timing shafts, and many other engineering refinements. And—Fear No Follies—the motors are sixes. Because we, like the engineers of the world’s costliest cars, can find no abler, and economically. More cylinders would only complicate them—reduce efficency— increase expense to you. New riding ease comes from springs spe- cially designed to get the full comfort of balloon tires. And permanent steering ease is produced by ball-bearings and special gear- ing that offset balloon tire friction. The New Paige and New Jewett possess performance which can fairly be called per- fected. Jewett givesit to you in a car of con- venient size. Paige, in a bigger car with the added advantage of greater size and power. As you experience this performance you real- ize that there is no step beyond it today. And it has been produced along proved lines—not experimental. We have retained the fine engineering features which our years of use have proved permanently satisfying: The Paige-Jewett saw-blade steel clutch that engages so softly and with Paige-Jew- ett transmission makes gear-shifting effort- less. And practically noiseless even in shift- ing from high to second at 30 miles an hour! The all-steel universal joints with sealed-in oil that lasts for 15,000 miles and postpones wear and back-lash many years. These and many other features proved in millions of miles’ service, could not be bettered. All these new advantages cost you nothing more. Paige and Jewett prices have not been increased. Judged by comparable cars—both smoother, sturdier type. Inherently balanced, the New Paige and the New Jewett are amply-sized for their jobs, they serve long underpriced $150 to $200.
