HERE'S the New Paige-unmatch- Il Il able in performance and value. Pay what you please, you cannot buy more sure ability on the road or de- lightful docility in traffic. So flexible is the big 70 h.p. Paige motor.
 More money will not buy a roomier car. Nor will it buy more comfort able car, for Paige has the l3l-inch wheeIbase, the 5-foot spring suspen- sion, the balance, that give utmost comfort.
 Never Before So Fine q Paige You know Paige as large, able, com fortable car. Finer each year, say those who know it best. And the New Paige goes a step further. It is not only finer-but immensely greater value.
 The big 70 h.p. Paige motor is the motor of the New Paige. Refined for even greater service. The clutch and transmission which made Paige so fa- mously easy to handle are also retained with added smoothness.
 Paige-Timken axles; sealed-in-Iu- brication universal joints of steel; ball. bearing steering spindles; the tremen- dous. unyielding frame e-all of which added to Paige reputation for rugged ness-are found with improvements in the New Paige.

Here's What he New Paige Will Do

"e AV" h"tSe v. m Do Think of what it means to have car that will do 70 miles an hour. Such a reserve of power means that you can climb hills in high when others shift and stall - dash ahead of the crowd means motor you will never hurt by over-taxing.
 Think of what it means to have a car that takes you in unjolted com fort at good speed over roads which other cars hesitate to travel. The lux ury of Paige motoring is very real to all who know it.
 Think Of having a motor so silent that you sometimes wonder whether 1t is running. So smooth that pencil may be balanced on end on the radia- tor cap-so flexible that you can drive from 2to 70 miles an hour in high gear.
 Think of all this at the startlingly low price of the New Paige.

Edward Wheeler Hall and his choir

bodies were found side by side in
field on the Phillips farm two years

The absence of tangible clues and
the uncertainty as to whether the
girl had been killed where she lay
or elsewhere served to recall the
earlier crime. Her body was laid
carefully on a newspaper, recalling
the manner in which the bodies OF
Mr.. Hall and Mrs. Mills were arranged,
a circumstance which caused investi-

a knowledge of undertaking had been
present at the killing.
The girl was slain with small
