Burleigh, after a period of season- ing in the south, broke into the big show with the Pirates late in 1916, remaining with the Bucs in 1917 before being traded to Brook- lyn. 1In less than two seasons with the Pirates, Grimes won five and lost 19 games. It has taken a long time for Bur- leigh to begin “getting out of the red,” so far as his record as Pirate goes, but once started he has made a rapid job of it. In a season and a half ,he now has won more than 40 games as against only some 15 defeats. ——————— STORE HOURS For the accommodation of the trade, this store will be open Sat- urday evening, August 10. adv.

Economical because it has been made to stand up under thousands and thousands of miles of steady running. An indication of the built-in quality of this car is shown in the extensive use of fine steel forgings. More steel forgings, in fact, are used in the new Ford than in almost any other car, regardless of price.
