Pivots bent or broken, jewels cracked, or thick oil clogging the bearings. In the latter case a clean is suggested by your watchmaker. It will cost 12/6. , • i i You think that a high price for what you think happens to your watch when it is cleaned. You think it is dipped in kerosene, dried and oiled, just like that. But follow your watch through its various stages in the process of being cleaned and you will agree that 12/6 is not so much to pay for so highly skilled workmanship. Your watch is taken from its case and laid on tissue paper. A preliminary inspection is made of the balance wheel and its movement, and the jewels which house the train pivots. Then the watch is taken down into its component parts—as a screw is loosene,d a fine pair of tweezers, wielded by skilled fingers, unerringly picks up the tiny parts and deposits them on the tissue paper until the watch is a little heap of screws, wheels and plates waiting for the next phase.

Seat Reservations Regulate Passenger Traffic. Permits for rail travel are no longer necessary. To the extent of the accommodation available, passengers may reserve seats up to seven days ahead of travel date. An extra day to cover the transmission of applications for reservations will be allowed nonresidents of towns from which the relative trains commence their journeys. Coal shortage still prevents the restoration of normal train services, and passengers are urged to use secondary trains wherever possible, leaving the main expresses for long distance and urgent travel.
