This new Ford Galaxie, like all the
new, beautifully proportioned 1960
Fords, is styled from a new view-
point. Traditional automotive ele-
gance combines with modern design
in the style of a new decade!
In i960, for the first time in history,
your Ford Dealer presents not one, not two,
but three new lines of Ford cars . . .
1. The i960 Fords—The Finest Fords of a
Lifetime, beautiful from any Point of View,
worth more from every Point of Value!
2. The i960 Falcon—The New-size Ford,
the world’s most experienced new car and
the easiest car in the world to own!
3. The i960 Thunderbird . . .
The World’s Most Wanted Car!
Introducing the New-Size Ford
the 1960 Ford
Meet the New-size Ford —the Falcon! Here’s a car with
plenty of room for six big adults and all their luggage. It’s
sized to handle and park like a “small” car . . . powered to
pass and climb like a “big” car .. . and built like no other
car for savings!
It gives you up to 30 miles per gallon on regular gas.
Aluminized mufflers normally last twice as long as ordinary
kinds. A Full-Flow oil filter lets you go 4,000 miles be-
tween oil changes. Even insurance can cost you less! And
this Falcon is the world’s most experienced new car. It was
driven over every mile of numbered Federal Highway in
EXPERIENCE RUN, U.S.A.—a grueling demonstration
climaxing Ford’s 3 years of development and testing.
The Falcon has the features that American car buyers
expect. Its gearshift is on the steering column—not on the
floor. Its engine is located up front for greater stability and
safety. Best news of all is the Falcon’s low, low price. See it
at your Ford Dealer’s ... and see the difference!

Now you can see them—the Finest Fords of a
Lifetime! Economy-minded Fairlanes. Big-value
Fairlane 500’s. Elegant Galaxies. A breath-taking
new Sunliner convertible and a brand-new hard-
top model, the flashing Starliner. Then there’s
a whole new world of Station Wagon Living,
too. It all adds up to 15 glittering variations of
the world’s newest, most elegant styling theme!
And Ford sets the new trend in power. Ford’s
Thunderbird 292 V-8 and 352 V-8, like the fa-
mous Mileage Maker Six, bring a new world of
smoother, hotter performance—on regular gas.
To top it all, the Finest Fords of a Lifetime are
priced for savings. Ford is still priced to outvalue
all comparable models of its major competitors.
Ford savings, however, only begin with a low
price. You save still more with engines that thrive
on regular gas and save up to a dollar on every
tankful ... a Full-Flow oil filter that lets you
go 4,000 miles between oil changes .. . Diamond
Lustre Finish that never needs waxing ... alumi-
nized mufflers that normally last twice as long
as conventional types . . . new, safer, Truck-Size
brakes that are the biggest ever in Ford’s history
.. . and new soft-tread, Tyrex cord tires that run
quieter, last longer.
In every way these are the Finest Fords of your
Lifetime! See them at your Ford Dealer’s!

The Catholic Daughters do-
nated $50.00 for the needed
Korean and Vietnam people and
for the exiled Vietnam priests.
Mrs. Marie Wagner, program
chairman, presented an inter-
esting program in a panel form
titled “Getting The Most of The
Rosary,” because October is the
month dedicated to the Most
Holy Rosary. Mrs. Wagner gave
the history of the Rosary. She
then presented Mrs. Robert
Wagner who spoke on “Why
Catholics Pray to Mary.” In her
speech she stressed that we
pray to Mary for petition or
for Her to intercede for us be-
cause she is the Mother of God.
Next on the panel was Mrs.
George Watzlavick who spoke
on the topic of “Why Catholics
Say The Rosary?” She stressed
that the repetition of prayers
are a choral background to the
meditation of the Life of
Christ. If the Rosary is under-
stood, the prayers are not mon-
otonous.
After the panel presented
their interesting topics, Mrs.
Marie Wagner accompanied
Miss Frances Ann Tasler on
the piano who sang “My Ros-
ary” by Ethelbert Nevin. The
entire membership joined Fran-
ces Ann in singing “Mary,
Queen of the Holy Rosary.”
Refreshments consisting of
various cookies and coffee were
served to approximately 50
members by Mrs. Hilda Stach,
chairman; Mrs. A. A. Darilek

® Junior News —
The Junior Class opened the
new semester with a good start.
Everyone was happy to come
back to school. A few had to
work at home the first few
days, but by now the attend-
ance is good.
The class organized their club
the second week of school. The
following officers were elected:
President, George Bujnoch; vice
president, Paulie Patek; secre-
tary, Freddie Patek; treasurer,
Evelyn Janak; reporter, Mar-
garet Sofka. Various commit-
tee chairman are: Prom chair-
man, Erlene Pavlicek; decor-
ating chairman, Betty Machi-
cek; spiritual chairman, Judith
Pohler.
The class is continuing the
vocation project carried on by
the predecessors. Prayers for
seminarians and candidates are
said every day.
Representing the Junior Class
at the Harvest Festival October
18 will be Betty Machicek and
Eugene Targac.
The class, as in previous
years, will again have a con-
cession at the Festival. It is
hoped that everyone will come
out and enjoy the various acti-
vities that will take place.
The Juniors also took up a
project of selling Christmas
cards this year. If anyone wish-
es to purchase these cards, they
may contact any member of the
Junior Class.
Since the month of October
is the month of the Holy Ros-
ary, the decorating committee
decorated the room with var-
ious pictures of the Blessed
Mother and put up letters which
read: “Queen of the Holy Ros-
ary.”
This year for the first time,
the Juniors are taking typing.
They enjoy the class very much.
Some are typing at great speeds
without error. Are you by any
chance looking for a secretary?
