Showing correct position of Conductor on car. di vided platform and passenger depositing fare in fare box. Commencing on Thursday morning, December 10, 1908, pay-as-you-enter cars will be operated on the Depot-Morrison and Hawthorne Avenue lines and will be placed on the Twenty-third street line at a later date. This style of cars is operated very successfully in eastern cities and is similar in con struction to the cars now running on Twenty-third street and Mount Scott lines, except that the plat forms are much larger, the rear platform bemg di vided for EXIT and ENTRANCE, while the front platform is used for exit only. ' By the installation of this type of car, transpor tation will be more regular, comfortable and safer than at present; more regular because of the syste matic arrangement of entrance and exit passages, eliminating confusion and lessening the time re quired for stops; more comfortable because of the size of the car and the fact that the conductor is not compelled, in collecting fares, to pass fre quently.jhrough the car to the annoyance of the passengers; safer because the conductor will remain on the rear platform and thus prevent accidents Showing front "Exit" and passenger alighting from " , ' car. ,hie to starting car while passengers are in the act "of boarding or alighting. In this effort to improve the service the public s earnestly requested to cooperate By entering car only at rear step marked "Entrance. By depositing the exact cash fare or ticket in the fare box, or by giving transfers directly to the con ductor. If passengers have not the exact fare, conduc tors will furnish change, returning the full amount to the passenger, who will then deposit the exact fare in the box. By asking the conductor for transfers at time fare is paid passengers may obtain them.
