RAIL ROAD RUMBLES
READING COMPANY
ORDERS ENGINES
Three Mallett Locomotives For
Rutherford Yards; Business
Still on Increase

The Philadelphia and Reading
Railway Company late Saturday aft
ernoon placed an order for &c loco
motives. This makes a total of Al
engines ordered this year. The last
order includes 20 Mikado type en-
gines, and six Mallet type locomo-
tives. Three of the latter are for serv-
ice in the Rutherford yards, and three
for the Frackville branch. They are
to be completed by July /.
The new engines will be constructed
at the Baldwin plant. Philadelphia.
The officials announced that with the
arrival of the new steel car equipment
ordered last week, additional motive
power will be needed. Business on
the Reading system has increased so
rapidly and indications are for con-
tinued rush of business, the officials
say they will be at a disadvantage
without new engines and cars.

AMERICAN AUTO NOT YET OF
LEGAL AGE

1T is difficult to comprehend that
the American automobile is not yet
of legal age" says Frederick Upham
Adams in the April American Maga-
zine. 1T was not until Thanksgiving
day, 1896, that the first proof was
given to the public that the automobile
was practical possibility. 1t was my
privilege to suggest and later to con-
duct the first automobile race ever
held in the United States. 1t was IN
Chicago and the winning car made the
route of 81 miles at the then record
rate of little more than eight miles
an hour. on October . of 1915, not
quite twenty years after, the winning
car in the Astor cup race ran $50 miles
at an average rate of more than 1O2
miles an hour"

DEAD LETTER. SPEED LAWS

The legal speed limits in American
cities" says Frederick Upham Ad-
ans, the automobile expert, in the
April American Magazine range from
twelve to twenty miles an hour. Such
limits never have been enforced, nev ar
should be enforced. and never will be
enforced, for reasons which will be
considered in detail in the next article,
The real traffic regulations of our
larger cities, as daily enforced by the
police, make il obligatory with the
driver of an automobile TO maintain
speeds of from twenty to twenty-five
miles an hour on streets with heavy
traffic when the driver gets the signal
that there is a clear space ahead The
law may set the minimum at fifteen,
but you must run at twenty when you
have a chance. Unless such a high
speed be generally maintained by
drivers whenever possible on main city
thoroughfares, effective traffic regula-
ton will be impossible and disastrous
congestion chronic and inevitable.
I'VE have reached a period in the
development of the automobile in the
United States when the traffic authori-
ties are more concerned over a mini
mum speed which must be maintained
whenever possible than over maximum
speeds"

gown. Probably they were afraid ci
the reputation that silver tissue has
of furnishing and turning black when
left to itself. And yet, after this gown
was launched. women took hold of the
idea of wearing colored, metal clot5
frocks.
The production of this material was
a triumph of the looms and of the
master weavers. It was foisted upon
the public without much heralding.
and it became easily the foremost
fabric of the month. Happily, it has
not been dyed in brilliant colors; it
has been guided by an artistic hand
into pale pink, mauve, a peculiar
ly lovely shade of sky blue.
Entire frocks have been made OF
this fabric, the saving grace beng
that the skirts are very short and
the bodices slim and low Where
trimming is demanded, it is supplied
by silk net in the same color. but too
ornately touched up with crystals.
If the idea of an entire gown of
rose or mauve metal tissue does not
appeal to a woman. at least. she
may care to know that the fabric
is in fashion in order to make use
OF it on another gown. A bodice of
mauve-coIored metal tissue goes
very we'll with a skirt of mauve-
colored tulle or even one of white,
and a simple adjustment of the fab
ric is to use it as deep girdle On
any kind of silk net dance gown. or
as a deep hem on lower skirt OF
tulle or chiffon.
OF course the milliners are using
It for hats; they drape this cOlored it's
sue into high turbans and leave them
except for a spray or
ajErette of goura feathers.
The shoe men who have flooded the
country with slippers OF silver tissue
will eagerly grasp the opportunity to
use the new fabric. So far. all our
coIored slippers have been of satin.
Women want change.

TO GIVE KIDDIE PLEASURE

Every little kiddie would appreciate
the gift of cover for the tray of the
high chair. Get white linen and cut
it 70 fit the shape of the tray. Bind
the cover with tape if you do not care
to take the time to scallop it. The
child will appreciate a cunning design
embroidered on tha cover. The design
will amuse him while waiting for his
food to be served. Any character from
the nursery stories can be transplant
ed to the cover. If you cannot find
a design in the shops, take one from
book with a pointed pencil and piece
of carbon paper; you will have no
trouble tracing it. Outline the figure
n black or dark line.
The same design might be used to
decorate bib. The bib, like the Gov
er, can be bound with tape. Provide
the piece around the neck with button
and buttonhole. The pieces forming
a belt can be fitted in the same way
or, if preferred, clamp can fasten
the belt.
Jack and Jill would be very glad to
ornament q useful set of this kind
