Yes—there are
ifißffln hidden beauties
J' 7 in your records
HUSHED it comes forth from the violin, a wonder
ment of tonal beauty. It is the magic sound of
strings on wood. No phonograph has ever truly re
produced that sound—none "till the Vocalion came."
Because the Vocalion's Sounding Board-—built on the
piano principal—responds sympathetically to the vibrant
ll' sound waves of the violin. It qualifies the least tend
ency to metallic severity, even while all the qualities in
the new Symphonetic Horn are preserving the violin's
delicate tonal hues—as never did a phonograph before.
They preserve, the same "tonal purities" in all instru
mental or vocal sounds.
They preserve, in fact, the hidden beauties that the
wonderful Sound Box of the Vocalion calls forth from
your records.

him dollar after dollar but all fail

stant pressure against his heart, which
made him feel weak, his appetite,
strange to say, was good, but what
ever he ate caused distress and mis

dizzy spells and lie could not walk up
one flight of stairs without feeling
exhausted and out of breath. An
other strange thing about his case was
that everybody seemed to disagree as
to the real cause of his trouble. Some

UTILITY ADOPTS
TRAFFIC SIGNALS
System of Blasts on Auto Horn
to Indicate Vehicle's
Turn
If other firms and individual? oper
ating automobiles adopt the signal
system inaugurated by the Harrisburg
Light and Power Company, motor
driven vehicles soon will notify each
other of their movements on the city's
streets much like ships at sea.
The plan has been adopted by the
electric light company as a further aid
toward solving the congested travel
problem and consists simply of a series
of blasts or gongs on horn or bell to
indicate the prospective direction of
the truck or car. On ships the same
system is followed except that the big
sirens of the steamers sound the sig
nal.
Like Ships at Sea
In the sections of the city in which
traffic officers help regulate the flow
of traffic the signal system is not so
important; in the residential district
street intersections, however, where
the approach of a car or other vehicle
from the cross-street is not so readily
discernible until the cars are almost
upon each other, the new system will
work admirably, traffic officers con
tend.
The rules are simple. When the
driver of a car is approaching the
cross-street he grasps his horn bulb
and signals as follows to indicate his
direction upon crossing:
"Hon-n-n-k Passing straight
ahead!"
"Honk-honk—Passing to the right!"
"Honk-honk-honk —Passing to the
left."
Mayor and Chief Endorse Plan
In brief one fairly long blast means
that the car will turn in neither di
rection; twfl blMta. that the dfiver
•MAY 17. 1016.
I purposes to swing to the right; three
blasts, to the left.
Both Mayor E. S. Meals anrl Chief
lof Police Thomas Zeil endorsed the
plan. "That's an admirable plan of
the light company's," said the mayor,
| "and I think it would work out nicely.
I d suggest that you discuss it with
the chief."
"Fine idea," endorsed Chief Zeil with
equal heartiness. "Jt will take a lit
tle time I suppose for other firms and
corporations and even individuals to
understand that general adoption of
I the plan would be for the mutual
benefit of all, but I think that motor
ists generally will quickly pick it up.
If the electric company issues instruc
tions to this effect to its truck and
! other drivers I suppose the other firms
| operating similar vehicles could do so
i too.
! Working Out Traflc Problems
i "The light company I understand
'lias originated the scheme and if the
1 other firms and corporations follow
suit, the danger of collision at a street
' crossing where no traffic officer is on
duty, will naturally be reduced to a
minimum. Certainly the idea has
our approval."
i Harrisburg's traffic regulations gen
erally are gradually being worked out
Chief Zeil added in discussing the
traffic, situation. The principal trou
ble Just now, according to the police
official, results from the failure of mo
torists to understand just what the
outstretched hands of a traffic officer
signify.
The Signal
"For instance," explained the chief,
"if a chauffeur is driving southward
in Third street and at the intersection
of Market street he sees the police
man signaling 'open-east and west,'
.he motorist takes this to mean that
he may keep on down Third street
land make a turn either to the east
or west. In other- words he thinks
that the outstretched hands of the
I officer blocks him only from continu
ing straight down Third street. Now
j it must he understood that the 'east-

and-west' or 'north-and-south' signals
mean just what they indicate—that
traffic may move only in these direc
tions."
Other troubles that give trouble oc
casionally, according to the chief is
that motorists figure that they may
"straddle" the car tracks with their
cars and that they may pass trolley
cars when they seen no one descending
from the car.
Chickens Refuse to Be
Led to Public Market
Vincennes, Ind.—Women of the
F'irst Baptist Church at Bicknell, wish
ing to advertise a sale of chickens to
raise money for repainting the par
sonage, planned to lead their hens
from the public square to the market.
A large crowd had gathered in the
square, each carrying a hen under her
arm, but the chickens refused to be
led when the signal was given.
However, the effort served the pur
pose, for the hens sold quickly at the
market, and enough money to pay for
painting the parsonage was obtained.
NOT A JELLY ROLL.
A sick little girl was ministered to
