We were never demonstrative in
our family; poor folk who toll and
are full Of cares are not so. 1t is
not their way to protest what they
already know.
When my mother says to me
"dear boy" it means much more
than when another uses it. 1 know
well enough that the jar Of whortle-
berries is the only one they have
had for months, and that she has
kept it for me; and the somewhat
stale cakes that she gives me, too.
She has taken a favorable oppor-
tunity of getting a few and has put
them all by for me.

window the chestnut trees in the

3 PAIGE MODELS
SHOWN HERE.

Immediate acceptance has been
the reward earned by the line of five
new chassis models introduced by
Graham-Paige at the beginning OF
the year. according to reports from
the company received by M. D. Her
ron, representing Graham Paige
here.
Both production and registration
figures indicate that the new cars
are SURPRISING the preceding models,
which gained for Graham-Paige q
new high record for sales volume for
the first year Of any make Of car.
Detroit and Wayne County, Mich,
a district that counts itself as the
wisest and best informed on automo-
bile subjects in all the world, has
greeted the new Graham Paige
models with enthusiasm. and sales
in the first two months of 1929 more
than doubled the figure for the cor
responding period Of last year.
Analysis of complete reports for
1928 reveals an extraordinary record
achieved by the Graham-Paige in In'
dianapolis. Total registrations for
the 12 months showed Graham-Paige
standing in fourth place, all makes
included. BY its phenomenal sales,
Graham Paige obtained 6h per cent
of all new car business in Marion
County, which includes Indianapolis,

CURB
DEPL0RED

FINDING the curb by jamming
front or rear tire against the
obstruction is practice Of which
virtually every motorist is guilty
at some time or other. Regardless
Of its universally, the habit is one
which should be avoided in the
interest Of motoring economy.
This is pointed out by Rudolph
Jose, president of the Washington
Cadillac Company. who says that

ing apparatus is such as to recon-
mend its avoidance whenever pos
sible.
And" Mr.. Jose says, ''it is pos
sible to refrain from indulging in
this driving fault always IL only
a little care is taken. It is easier,
of course, to park snugly by scrap
ing the tires-although, at that, 1t
sometimes renders it more difficult
by placing the car SO close to the
curb that further maneuyering be-
comes almost impossible.
"At all events, it would be well
for motordom to throw off this in
efficient 'crutch' and to learn to
judge distances so that contact with
the curb would be unnecessary. The
saving in tire costs would be con-
siderable, and there would be
fewer frayed tempers."

TRAFFIC B { | I

To DRIVERS

Traffic officials have claimed that
the present traffic congestions at
street intersections and accident jams
resulting from this congestion Is
brought about by the fact that few
motorists use their heads n such a
crisis.
There are exceptions to every
statement. J. T. Powell, a Wash.
ingtonIan, was recently placed in
such a predicament. He did not lose
his head, however. He drove home
Immediately and set about devtsing
and developing a better traffic
directing plan.
Powell with the assistance of his
brother Edwin has now invented
and has applied for patents in every
country In the world for traffic
directing belt" this belt TO he
worn by traffic officers to facilitate

BY merely watching the perform.
ance Of traffic at busy corners
where traffic officers are stationed
during night periods, Powell after
much study found that many viola
tions were due to mistaken signals.
The motorists are not entirely to
blame, he found, because of the poor
visibility of the signals especially
where the waving of the hands is
the method used to denote go or
stop.
The use of the traffic signal belt
will overcome this serious traffic
handicap and will facilitate the NOV.
ing of automobile traffic because
the electric green and red lights
can easily be seen from a far
distance thus preventing confusion.
The simplicity of the device,
which Is designed similar to the
famous Sam Brown Belt used dur
ing the war, adds to the appearance
of the traffic officer, and it will
not interfere with free arm move
ments Of the traffic officers arms,
necessary for special direction to
pedestrians or drivers while the
green lights remain stationary.
Hundreds who have inspected the
new patent belt are enthusiastic
about it. The design is attractive
and it weighs but three pounds, in.
cluding the batteries. The red lights
are mounted at the front and back
and green lights upon the officers
right and left arm, thereby allow.

display red lights while facing a

which traffic is to move.
