SELLING over S1.ODO.OOO
WORTH Of CARS each MONTH
F. L. Jewett, of the Paige Company,
Tells Secret of This Big Success
Concern Only Four Years in the
Business

''The Paige Company was organized
four years ago. The first year we built
and sold 500 automobiles. Our business
for last year ran over $1,000,000 per
month ON an average. That is record
that any organization may well be
proud of but when it is considered that
this tremendous growth was accom-.
plished in the face of keen competition
from manufacturers who were already
we'll established, it assumes even great.
er significance.
"Fom years ago our factory com
prised part of floor which gave us
about 2.400 square feet. To-day we
are in u magnificent, new plant of $780,
900 feet floor space and equipped with
every modern facility for economical
production of fine motor cars.
"Four years ago we employed a
handful of men. Now the average
working force is about 1000 skilled,
trained and loyal men whose yearly
wage earning capacity is approximately
half a million dollars.
-Four years ago there did not exist
a Paige selling organization. To-day
over 700 wide awake dealers are
preaching the gospel of Paige quality
and value in every state in the Union
and many foreign countries.
Mr.. Jewett smiled when asked to
what he attributed the remarkable de-
velopment of the Paige Company
81 believe this wonderful and>rapid
rise rests upon the foundation of the
excess value we have always built into
Paige cars. OF course, it required many
things to produce these values, but we
have the fundamental requirement in
the Paige organization.
sThe romance of the Paige devel-
opment is linked with the names of
some of Detroit s most active, shrewd,
and successful business men. With
their combined experience, with their
constructive ability, with their con-
servative judgment, with their unlimit.

Paige cars have won such marked sue

George r. Bentley, proprietor of the
Riverside Garage, rear of 1417 North
Front street, is the local dealer for
Harrisburg territory and mas surrounded
himself with a competent sales and

CHANDLER SIX IS A CAR or
TYPE IN Greatest DEMAND
Every Accessory Is Selected Because
It Is the Best obtainable In It's
Glass, Says Andrew Redmond, the
Local Distributor

The Chandler Six is car of the type
which is now, and will continue to be,
in greatest demand.
1t is car of the highest quality,
equipped with a six-cylinder Chandler
motor of special design built by the
Chandler Company as result of the
long experience possessed by its man
agement in the designing and building
of six-cylinder motors.
Present day requirements demand
light car weight, gasoline economy, lib
eral road clearance, narrow turning
radius, left side drive, center control,
multiple disc clutch, automatic oiling
system, steam line bodies, built-in
wind shield, deep, luxurious cushions,
clean running boards and graceful out
line-all of which are embodied in the
Chandler.
Modern equipment also demands full
and complete self-contained electric
lighting system, dependable electric
self-startimg apparatus, electric horn
clock, speedometer, high class magnetic
ignition, standard demountable rims,
! gasoline gauge, operator s instrument
board, quick adjustable patent storm
| curtains, rear tire carriers and such in.
cidental but important accessories as
robe rail, foot rest, ETC., etc.
Andrew Redmond, local dealer, in
speaking of it says:
"a study of the specifications of the
| Chandler Six will show that every ac.
cessory has been selected because it is
/ the best obtainable in its class. The
msgneto is the standard on the high,
est priced ears throughout the world
the starting and lighting systems are
recognized as being without superior
the rims are used on practically adj the
best cars in the country, the speedo
meter is of recognized superiority, the
ball bearings of high grade imported
manufacture, and the shafts, axles and
all other details are of the very finest
quality. Adv

Doors in China

In China doors are often round, leaf
shaped or semi-circular. In placing
them the builder usually avoids having
one opposite another lest evil spirits
find their way from the street into the
recesses of the building. The door
ways separating the courts of gar
den are usually of an elaborate kind,
and the octagonal form is one of the
most popular. Religious superstition
asserts itself in Chinese architecture,
and the universal sacredness of the
numerals 8 and is shown in the ar
rangement of temple doors. There is
a triple gateway to each of the halls
of the imperial palace, and the same
order prevails at the Ming tombs. The
Temple of Heaven has triple roof, a
triple marble staircase, and all its mys-
tic symbolism points either to 8 or its
multiples.

THE STATE OF FRANKLIN

In 1884 North Carolina, growing
impatient Of the burden that her west
ern settlements had imposed upon her
treasury and irrltated by the com.
plants of the people of those sections,
passed an act conveying to the Federal
government all the lands that now con-
stitute the State of Tennessee.
The people of the country that is
now Eastern Tennessee, feeling them
selves left without a government, made
haste to organize themselves into an
independent Commonwealth, which
they called, as tribute to the illus
trious philosopher, the State of Frank
lin. These people applied for admis-
sion into the Union; but, the Federal
government being slow and unwilling to
act and North Carolina having re-
pealed the act of cession of her western
province to the Union, the State of
Franklin came into very troubled wa
ters for some years.
Some efforts were made to persuade
the Kentuckians to join themselves TO
the State of Franklin, provision hav-
ing been made for such cooperation in
the constitution of the experiment, but

ENORMOUS QUANTITIES
OF EARTH EXCAVATED

Berlin, Nov. l.--Somc genius for
figures, with plenty of time at his
disposal, has estimated that the Ger
man soldiers who have had 10 bear
the burden of trench digging since
the beginning of the war have eXca-
waited "a quantity of earth which in
cubic feet is equivalent to the great
wall Of China. He arrives at his
conclusion in the following way
The great wall is 2,45O kilometers
long, 1875 meters high, meters wide
at the bottom and meters wide at
the top. The German lines in April
extended $50 kilometers in the west
and about ! 400 kilometers in the
east Behind these foremost lines,
however, extend secondary, and in
most cases third or fourth lines, all
connected up By miles OF "Laufgra-
ben or communication trenches
Since April the German positions
have repeatedly changed, necesstat-
ing the construction Of new trenches
Each trench is usually from six or
seven to dozen feet in depth ana
little narrower In connection with
each one are countless underground
shelters Taken altogether, the es-
timater believes, the trench digging
record Of the German soldiers in
fourteen months is quite on a par
with the decade-long record Of the
Chinese.
