Some of I the parts of your watch are so small that *lO,OOO of them would not 3 fill a thimble. Yet. there is as much pressure per square inch on the balance wheel staff (the axle' about which the balance wheel swings) as there is on the piston of a locomotive. Here are some facts which may interest you. A series of wheels and pinions called the Tram carries the'power from the main-spring to the escapement, and the wheel you see moving to and fro when the watch is open at the pack is the Balance Wheel. The Train divides up the force with which, the main-spring unwinds; the escapement allows this force to escape in measured doses; the Balance Wheel swings to and fro at a speed regulated, by the Hair or Balance Spring and this governs the timekeeping of the watch. The Balance Wheel makes nearly half a million swings in 24 hours,'and 150,000,000 swings a year, and ir a pocket size watch the rim ,of the Balance Wheel travels 8,395 miles in a year.

PERMITS NOT NOW NECESSARY Seat Reservations Regulate Passenger Traffic. Permits for ra'l 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 non-residents of towns from which the relative trains commence their journey. 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. Please Cancel Unrequited Reserves Early.
