    Interesting News to Saturday Shoppers
PAIGE HAS SIXES
ONLY THIS YEAR
A New Model at $1,050 With All
Good Points Claimed For
Fairfield "6-46"
On general policy, the Paige-Detroit
Motor Car Company stands pat for
the new season in spite of all excep
tional conditions in the labor and ma
terial market and unmoved by ten
dencies here and there to experiment
with fancies in design and mechanics.
The Paige claim of a resounding hit
in the field of Sixes seems justified in
view of the popularity of lliis car and
the fact that six months ago rapidly
expanding business compelled the
erection of large additions to the new
factory that had Just been entered
and preparations for new manufac- j
turing methods and greater supplies
of material.
The Paige is confining itself exclu
sively to the Six field in which it has
made its overwhelming success and
this company opens the year 1916
with two models, the five-passenger
Six "38" selling for $1,050, and the
seven-passenger Six "40," selling for
51,295. For the latter chassis, how
ever, there are several additional body
styles; the Cabriolet at $1,600; the
Coupe at $1,700; the Sedan at $1,900,
and the Town Car at $2,250; also a
J.limousine soon to be added. This is
the Paige line and the company's ex
hibits at all automobile shows for the
year will be based on these models
and body styles. The announcement
is also made that the company has
figured on a production of about 20,-
000 cars and is guaranteeing its 1,500
dealers Immediate deliveries.
Of the two basic models of the
Paige line special attention is called
to the light Six, the Fleetwood Six
"38," a five-passenger car at $1,050,
because the changes and improve
ments in this are more marked than
in the larger model, the Fairfield
seven-passenger Six "46." The Fleet
wood Six "3 8." which replaces the
Hollywood, last season's light Six, is
offered as a better car with greater
values from every angle, it is de
scribed as a car with a bigger, room
ier, niore beautiful body, with a larger,
more powerful and smoother running
motor, and with higher quality up
holstery, paint and finish. In every im
portant feature this newest addition
to the Paige line possesses the good
ness of the Six "46" adjusted to fit
all the requirements of a fivfe-passen
ger car.
Paige officials declare that the new
Six "38" lias every feature of design
and every element of quality which
won great success for the Fairfield:
the same beautiful European stream
line body; full "17" shaped doors, the
same axle design, the same clutch, the
same transmission; unit power plant;
three-point suspension, the same con
tral arrangements, the' same design
of radiator, the same hand buffed
French glaze leather, the same Pan
tasote material in the top, the same
silk timing gear in the motor, the
same improved oiling system, the same
distributor drive.
The Paige seven-passenger Fair
field at $1,295 and built on the cele
brated Six "46" chassis, is the car
that caused the Paige factory to be
oversold for the past year. This car
is already an established success hav
ing been thoroughly tried and proven
by the public. It is therefore a car
that has long since passed the experi
mental stage.
But the process of refining and per
fecting has been going on continuously
and in (he current series of the Fair
field Six "46" the designers and
builders of this car have brought It
up to the highest state of perfection.
Paige executives believe that it is a
finished car in every respect—per
fected to the current day and the
current hour.
George R. Bentley, of the Riverside
Auto Company, assisted by his son,
Paul 11. Bentley, have the representa
tion for the Paige line in the Harris
burg territory, with an excellent serv
ice station, built and equipped with
every necessary mechanical facility.
And years of training as skilled me
chanics qualifies them to select motor
car values with the judgment that
comes from practical training.

Mr. Sclilcisner's Career
Mr. Schleisner began busines there
under his own name seven years ago
and he has made repeated improve- I
ments and enlargements. He said to
ufty that his store has grown to an
extent that it became necessary for \
him to protect his interests by the
purchase of the property.
The Schleisner store. Mr. Sclileis
ner said, was built on the idea that
ry many Harrisburg women desiring ex
clusive styles In gowns and other
articles of female apparel were doing
their shopping in Philadelphia and
Xew York who would have bought
in Harrisburg if they could have got
ten what they desired. With this
thought he began to bring Philadel
phia and New York to Harrisburg; in
other words to make the Schleisner
store headquarters for styles and lines!
of goods not ordinarily seen outside
of the big cities and made a specialty
of showing styles here coincident with j
their appearance in the metropolis. |
The result, he says, has been far be- ;
yond his expectations, and that he has j
thereby kept, thousands of dollars of'
shopping money in Harrisburg that
before he entered business went to
other cities, and has given a big im
nettis to the "buy at home" move

Historic Building
The history of the old "College
) Block" dates back to the lirst of April,
1866, when M. J. Francesco, the local
i representative of the Arm of Bryant,
i Stratton and Francesco, took the third
! floor and established a business col
! lege there which continued lor sev
eral years. Previous to 1806. Robert
Jackson Fleming occupied the first
floor with a carriage and coach shop
which was burned in June, 1865. The
present structure was then erected.
I Francesco agreed to take the third
floor on condition that the block be
{called "College Block," which was the
way the name originated.
John C. Herman was the original
tenant in the corner room, at Third
and Strawberry streets, otherwise 22
North Third, and John Wise occupied
the lower floor at 24 North Third.
Wise was the predecessor of Weaver
and Hubley, which llrm was succeeded
by John S. Weaver, the confectioner.
I The first tenant at 28 North Third
•street was Dr. Margley, who owned a
i drug store, afterwards moving to the
j old Grand Opera House block across
1 the street Several tenants followed
him at this location, among them Ma
i lachi Sheehan, (father-in-law of John
P. Dohoney, of the Public Service
Commission), who owned a well
known tailor shop. At 32 North Third
the room farthest away from Straw
berry street, Sampel H. Seig was in
possession with a stationery and book
store, and he was followed by Sam
uel W Fleming, who continued in the

politics. I say this to you now so
that later if I do decide to do some
thing you will not say that I tried to
deceive you."
Mr. Garrison received interviewers j
at the home of George Leary, with
whom he spent the night after his
arrival here last evening from Wash- 1
ington.
Refers to Letters
"I will not discuss my resignation
from the cabinet," he said, "from any
political angle whatever, either as re
gards the present situation or the i
situation to be produced or assumed
to be px-oudced. The facts will be
disclosed to anyone who wijl carefully
read the correspondence between my- !
self and the President. That corre
spondence cannot be misinterpreted |
by anyone.
"1 intend to retire absolutely from
politics and public life. Ido not care
for any political consideration what-1
ever. Get it out of your head that
there was anything political in my
action."
Will Not Follow
Mr. Garrison was asked by inter- !
viewers if he intended to "follow the
example of Mr. Bryan and come out;
| publicly against any of Mr. Wilson's j
policies.
"Absolutely not," was the reply.
"Would you accept the nomination j
for Governor of New Jersey?" was;
' another question asked.
"I would not accept the nomination i
for Governor of New Jersey if the i
certificate of election was handed to
me on a silver platter," he said.
Mr. Garrison, in response to further
questions said that ho had no knowl-;
edge of the intention of any other
members of the cabinet to resign.
In respect to his own resignation he !
said he had consulted with no other
tabinet member, although Assistant j
Secretary Breckinridge was aware of
his intention.
"1 assumed," he said, "if Mr.
Breckinridge remained in the same
state of mind he would resign also."
Mr. Garrison decHned to give a
definite answer as to when his decision
to leave the cabinet was made, adding,
however, that he thought the corre- j
spondence spoke for Itself in the mat
ter.
As to his future plans he said he j
expected to resume the practice of!
law but where and when he was not j
yet certain.
