This tour, America’s Greatest National Road Con- test, was a hard fought battle between the highest grade motor cars of this country—and the three METZ cars that were entered defeated the whole field. Every METZ car “gets there” and “gets back.” Whether it is hard going or hill climbing, the METZ is the car you can always depend upon. Its engine is reliable, speedy and powerful, and equipped with high tension ignition, and Gray & Dav two unit starting and lighting system—the most prac- tical and reliable for METZ cars. See and try the METZ before you buy any car. It has advantages that all others lack, and furthermore— one look and you’ll like it, one ride and you'll buy it, and once a METZ owner, you'll never change. The Commercial Cars of one-half ton carrying ca- pacity will solve your delivery problems. Price of De- livery Cars $500 to $600. Metz Chassis are furnished without bodies in following length of wheel base, 108, 120, 130 inch. Be sure and place your orders early and save later disappointment.

WILLINGTON Boys’ Sunday at Sunday School— Chimney Breaks, Cutting Mrs. Frank Joslin’s Hand Badly. Boys’ Sunday at the Bible school was a success. Arthur Ward called the numbers of the interesting programme arranged by Miss Pratt. The recita- tions were all excellent but the motion exercise, Little Hands, by little Clif- ford Korn was_ very pretty. The vi- olin solo by Jomph Mirtl was very sweet and much appreciated. There were 70 present. The sermon by Rev. Mr. Parker from the last clause of the 1st verse of the 13th chapter of the Gospel by John was beautiful and convincing. Hand Badly Cut. Mrs Frank Joslin was washing a new lamp chimney one day last week when the glass broke cutting her right hand so badly that she was obliged to go to Dr. Bard at the borough to have the wound dressed by drawing the ugly Mrs. C.

BOLTON No Worry About Forest Fires This Year—Improvements at Schoolhouse. plasters. Al- heal it is still The middle of March last year Bol- ton people were in a nervous condition caused by the numerous forest fires which came from all directions; al- most daily one or more fires was in sight, frequently threatening their homes. The nervous condition of the local people today is caused by the monotony of the weather, as one or more snow storms daily for a long period is trying for country people, who have been brought up by godly parents and can discuss the weather but were taught that it would be wicked to leave off the first syllable of discussing.
