The new Ford that we have been
advised to wait for arrived ni Frisco
last week and immediately captured
the attention of everyone, many com-
ing in from the surrounding to view
this marvel of the year. The Car-
penter Brothers have every reason to
be proud to possess the new model
for it measures up to all of the pre-
vious claims put out by Ford last
winter. The idea takes hlod at once
that it were foolish to spend more
for comfort, style, ease, smooth-run-
ing and all conveniences of the lar-
ger car when such a cat- as this is
available at the price. There is no
wonder that hundreds of thousands fo
orders have been booked since the
first car was placed on display.

Ford in company with two pretty fruitful signs, and there are some

cial privileges to none. Walter Wil- j Monday of the week-before last did
so when the moon was in the most
fruitful sign of the twelve—Cancer.
The same may be said concerning the
planting of other things; the dates
in our table are those when the moon .
will be in the most fruitful sign for
those things, and not those of the:
semi-fruitful altogether. The latter j
are good, but why not select the best '
if there is a better? 1

then as ^oung people enjoy today.
And possibly t’jere was mu.-h more

wives and mothers and like Lois and

: will be felt for many years down the
issue line.

RHEUMATISM
While in France with the American
Army I obtained a noted French pre-
scription for the treatment of Rheu-

Thanks for both the bricks and
for the bouquets. It is n pleasure to
the editor to know that he has some
friends in Grayson county; in fact,
it makes us feel mighty good to know
that we have friends in any county.
