S. PRESTON, 2854. Chairman. Johnnie, into how many classes are motor cars divided? Two—Fords and automobiles. Correct. What is a Ford? Ford is a scientifically constructed four-wheel motor car intended as the safest and surest mode of travel at the least cost. Does it fulfill the which it is intended? It does. What canyou say of a day’s out- ing in a Ford? It consists of a continuous spin over hill and vale, full of pleasure, fun and satisfaction. What are the necessaries to take for a day's outing in a Ford? A little gasoline in a tank, a lit- tle oil in the engine and a little water in the radiator, and your wife and babies in the car. Why are Fords more cheaply and purpose for |satisfactorily operated than automo- biles? Because they are mechanically perfect, free from cumbersome ad- junets; in other words, they are sim- plicity simplified. Now, what is an automobile? A car usually of heavy \vvigfit with big, expensive pneumatic tires, hizh rated horsepower, made up of storage batteries, magnetic clutches, a network of wiring, automatic pumps, air-pressure pumps, oil pumps, oil feed pipes, sight oil feed, odometers, clocks, volt-meters, aero- meters, air pressure gauges, shock absorbers and other mechanical con- glomeration intended as a medium of separating the rich from their cash. Does it fulfill the which it was intended? It used to—but not now. What can you say of a day's out- ing in an automobile? It consists of break-downs, downs, lay-outs and blow-outs. What are the necessaries to take for a day's outing in an automobile? Four big extra casings, extra tubes, an electrician, a mechanician, an able-bodied chauffeur, a check book and a good account with your purpose for bog- -— GG @ :g 4 o igeFro 2 &, @ & & £2 B DB BB I B EPEEERREEEERREEERAELLL LT RL TSR E LT L o5eeoeB e Beelerofoforde oo oo oes ELE TSR S T PR PR Bpd P DD PR PP PP SPIBHIIHPSDIRHIIBEGDPEOGDIE QBB DRDEGE RN Y EEEEEEEEE RN AN 2 @ | 1§ £ ) TROLLEY CAR INGIDENT } [ [ J E By INEZ BARON.

For the same reason that it is im- practicable to operate locomotives with pneumatic tires on dirt roads. 2848 NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION Notice is hereby given to the pub- lic that the undersigned have this day by mutual consent dissolved the co-partnership heretofore existing between them under the name and style of Lakeland Business College.

LUCILE EXCURSION ATLANTIC COAST LINE HOLLAND, WARREN. 2843 “Fares, please.” The woman looked up, her forehead puckered in a o troubled frown. “I—I seem to { have lost my purse,” she sald, with some degree of embarrassment. “I had it when I started, but I must have dropped it some- where.” The young con- ductor stood uncertainly for a mo- ment, his hand on the farelever, The woman was beautiful, well dressed, and evidently, from her voice and bearing, a gentlewoman. There seemed only one thing to do. “Very well, madam—" he was be- ginning, when a stout, red-faced man in the next seat burst into a disagree- able laugh. “Same old graft, conductor,” he sald, with a coarse wink, diving one hand into his trousers-pocket; “but they al- ways get away with it, the dears!'” The woman flushed scarlet, and edged away from him, her face show- | ing plainly the aversion and disgust she felt at his words and action, “Will you pay my fare for me, con ductor?” she asked. “Certainly, madam,” replted the young man courteously. He ignored both the nickel proffered by-the red- faced man and the latter's sneering re- mark, drew five cents from his waist- Mondav, July 27, 1914 ROUND TRIP FARES FROM JACKSONVILLE AUGUSTA ... covee.$4.00 ATLANTA ... e «..$36.00 RDHBERS .0 oo oo $6.00 BIRMINGHAM. .. ..$8.00 CHATTANOOGA . $8.00 COLUMBIA ... ... ..... $5.50 MACON co o SN0 Tickets limited to August 1st, and are good returning on regular train within limit, ~fi%¢«xxwa-wm to: {A.

Then he rang up the fare and moved on. “What is your name, please, conduo tor?” sald the woman, putting a de- taining hand on his arm.

You'll do well hereafter to remember that a favorite trick of that sort of Wwoman {s to beat the road, the con- ductor, or any one else she can stick for the price of her fare.” Brewster drew back, an angry flash in his eyes. “I don't want your money,” he sald in a low tone. “But,” he added, “you will do well to learn how to tell a lady when you see one. If I hadn't been wearing the company’'s uniform, I'd have thrown you off the car when you spoke to her as you did.” “Oh, you would, would you?” snarled the other. “Well, we'll see just how good your job is, Mr. John Brewster! I'll have you know that no whipper- snapper of a fresh conductor can in- sult me with impunity! You wait and see!” Brewster thought no more of the threat and its maker until the next morning, when a summons to the su- perintendent’s office brought it forci- bly to his mind. With a feeling of “neasiness, he complied with the order, and present-' ly found himeelf face to face with the superintendent, who looked up from the pile of letters he was sorting and ‘ favored the young man with a curt nod. | “You're John Brewster?” he sald; “I | received a complaint against you—a man has notifled me that you were in- solent to him yesterday—that you threatened to throw him off the car. | What have you to say?” “I didn't exactly threaten him, sir,* he said sturdily, “but I did tell him that he deserved such treatment, and it I had been out of uniform I should certainly have given it to him, He insulted & lady, sir, and it would have seiv.l%i him just right” en you admit - the truth of his :#t yt:u put it that way, yes.” ‘In that case, you will turn in badge and uniform,” remarked thgo::: perintendent. “Very well, sir” S responded Brew- He had expected either a reprimand | or dismissal; but at the same time he | felt that it was pretty hard to be so | summarily turned off merely for act.

I you have a blue dining room and have some really good Japaneso of Chinese porcelain, or china fn bluo and white, use it, and use nothing else, unless it be some interesting lit tle Japanese or Chinese knicknacksin brass—a gong or a tiny idol perhaps. Wedgwood is a beautitul platerall decoration if it 18 used alone; but ux fortunately, there are few who po¥| 8688 enough of it to furnish a whole| plate rail. If modern pottery is used, it is well to choose the whole furnishing of the plate rall at once. There 18 a certaln brown and cream colored ware in the market now that could be used e fectively in the room where yello¥ or brown predominates., The ware s | decorated with peasant scenes. There are many good designs I royal doulton of various sorts that can be chosen. Only they should b selected with a definite idea in mind of the other pieces with which they are to rank and of the room they ar¢ to decorate, BATTLESHIP IN ACTION This is one of the greatest fig Vessels of the American navy, 0% ing head on ang firlng a broadside e RN s
