Millinery Section— Third Floor. S'Afe Crossings HE above picture shows a Chicago Great Wes- tern crossing protected by.an INTERLOCK- ING SYSTEM. These towers command a clear view of the tracks in all directions and contain a mechan- ism to operate signals and switches. All the levers used by the operator are so interlocked as to be absolutely proof nst error, and the only thing that can happen through failure of the operator is a delay to the train. All levers must be shifted roperly or they cannot be moved at all. “About half a mile in each SInctlon from one of these towers is a semaphore known as the “distant signal” warning the engineer of conditions at the crossing; a hundred yards from the crossing is another semaphore known the “home’ signal” which signals him either to halt or proceed. Even here the niechanism is infallible, because if for any reason the train does not obey a stop signal within certain limits a very simple but effective device in the track forces it to stop. All important grade crossings on the Chicago Great Western are equipped with Interlocking Towers. Your Telephone is Handy P. F. BONORDEN, C. P. A M. E. SIMMONS, D, P.
