Many of the commuters had left Hartford early in the afternoon to reach their homes. but when they reached Berlin word was received that the cars would not proceed further as the wreck had stopped all trafic on the Meriden and branch lines. Rather than remain in the depot the greater of the crowd stormed the two cars until the aisles, seats. vestibules and steps were literally piled with passengers. In ~this position the crowd remained until the word to start was received. Conductor McCabe could not get into the car and had to content himself with a few .inches of the bottom step where he remained until the train reached Beckleys where he collected tickets as the pas- sengers alighted.

That Fulfills All Promises The sense of satisfaction in owning a seven-passenger Paige Essex «Six-55" is two-fold. Primarily, of course, the owner « of a Paige Essex is gratified be- cause his good judgment in choosing it is confirmed by the car’s sterling qualities of reli- ability, sturdiness and luxurious comfort. But there is an added satisfac- ,"J tion in owning the Essex because of its impressive appearance: It has all the distinctive beauty of higher priced cars, and none of the expensive disadvantages. ; As a practical vehicle, free from the burden of excessive “up- keep,” the Paige-Essex is given quitc general preference among cars of sevenpassenger size.
