LISTEN WHEN CROSSING RAILROAD TRACKS In a very recent grade crossing accident, consisting of an auto truck running into the side of an engine pulling a train, three boys aged seven to eleven, two of whom were brothers, were instantly killed and several others were injured. The truck, which was occupied by men and boys, was proceeding toward the crossing and all its occupants were watching an airplane soaring over head, entirely forgetting for the moment that they were approaching a railroad crossing toward which a train was likewise moving at a mod erate rate of speed, with whistle blowing and engine bell ringing. The truck ran into the side of the moving engine and turned so that the boys on one side of the truck were hurled under the grinding wheels and three innocent young lives were wiped out. Thirty-five per cent of the acci dents to automobiles at railroad grade crossings of the O-W. R. R. & N. lines for the seven months ending July 31, 1920, were due to automo biles running into side of trains, en gines, or cars, and running into ditches, fences and posts in order to avoid running into train that was going over the crossing. Twenty per cent of the accidents were caused by auto drivers running through crossing gates or disregarding the signal of crossing watchmen. Eight per cent of the collisions were due to auto being stalled on the track. The remainder were mostly deliber ate attempts to beat the train over the crossing. Following1 are the principal causes of collisions between automobiles and trains: Defective brakes; driver trying to beat train over crossing; failure of driver to stop, look, and listen; auto mobile skidding into train; automo bile stalled on track; automobile stopped too close to track; miscalcu lating speed of train; driver occupied in conversation, daydreams, or look ing at object remote from what Is immediately before him. Records indicate that 23 persons are daily killed or severely injured on account of collisions between au tos and trains in the United States. The careless automobile driver is a menace to himself and to the occu pants of his car, and the death toll at grade crossings will continue to increase unless drivers exercise more care. Too much care cannot be used in making a crossing, as the least inattention or heedlessness may cause death and destruction, and the other side of the crossing may never be reached. A careful driver will slow up be fore coming to a crossing, put his car In second or low speed, keeping ample power in the engine. He will then come to a full stop with engine going, and look sufficiently to sat isfy himself that he will go over in safety. When he so satisfies himself he shoots over quickly. Should a train be within the distance which may mean danger he will put the car out of gear and wait till the train passes.

To do this task at extremely low cost is the particular mission of the Maxwell. Therefore it was necessary to eliminate every pound of superfluous weight, pound to carry around meant added expense. How to reduce the weight without reducing the strength problem in this car. • thus became for each added the vital engineering To maintain the required strength without increasing weight necessitated the use of the best ma- terials. The great science of metallurgy 'supplied the answer. Such metals are obviously the qual- ity metals; and a Maxwell car contains them throughout. An analysis will show that pound for pound the metals that go into a Maxwell car are compar- able with the metals in the highest priced cars in the world. That is the underlying reason why Maxwell cars have given such rare accounts of themselves in every latitude and clime and have responded so well to every task to which they have been commit- ted. They hold the greatest efficiency-economy record a car has ever made—22,020 miles at an aver age speed of 25 miles an hour, with an average of 22 miles to the gallon of gasoline. And during this test the engine never once stopped, day or night. highly reliable mileage. It was continuous, low-cost, Such steels, such certainty of performance, such saving, have won many friends for Maxwell. Maxfield & Rhodes Bros HERMISTON, ORE.
