Out of the more than 3000000 Ford cars
now in use about sixty percent have been sold
to farmers. Probably no other one thing has
brought to the farm so much of comfort and
profit as has the Ford car. It has enlarged
the social life doubled the facilities for market-
ing brought the town next door to the farm
multiplied for the farmer the pleasures ofliving.
A family car without an equal in low cost of
operation and maintenance. We solicit your
order for one now because the demand is large
and continually increasing.

A Mn Hour Caller
Just lit that timo of ilay Tuesday
when ordinary miAials are at home
for dinner the Signal hail a distin-
guished caller a man who Is always
in a hurry and always on timo. It
would have given us pleasure to en-
tertain him at luncheon but this tunc
ho came tardy und has left our gen-
erous inclinations all gone awry. He
came unheralded and left the same
way but just to make our disappoint-
ment the more pungent hu left this
note:
"I called you were refreshing the
Inner man. Trust you have bad a
merry Christmas and wish for you
and yours many returns of the an-
nual turkey and dressing. Keep tho
Signal coming."

We are going to treat them too in order of timeliness. Just as

to tell the subscriber just what be wants to know Just when he
wants to know it and In as few words as possible.

tho Democratic administration tho j
McKinney Democrat-Gazette came
out In this editorial expression :
The accomplishments o! Wood-
row Wilson's administration have
entrenched the democratic party In
the good will of the masses In every
section of the country. His leader-
ship has exalted the American people
to the highest pinnacle In tho esteem
of tho whole world. Of course here
and there is found a caustic critic
even in the democratic party of
Woodrow Wilsont who has risen
above pij.tlsonshlp as the nation's
chief magistrate. Washington "the
father of his country" also had vio-
lent denunciators much more num-
erous In proportion to his day than
Wilson has In his. But after tho
lapse of century even the namjs of
thoa detractors are swallowed up In
oblivion and are utterly forgotten
while tho name and fame ot George
Washington continues to shine with
ever increasing lustVe with the sweep
of nges. So it is and ever will be
with Woodrow Wilson illustrious
leader nnd spokesman of democracy
In jtho most tltantlc world war of all
time that literally "mndo the world
safe for democracy." His ideals are
Imperishable. Their detractors like
Washington's aro also oblivion bent.
