WALLACE, Sec- ? TreM. ns wmm. mm ? Beyond The Alps It has been my privilege to travel over the Kockie, to Bojcxumamong the highlands of Scotland, to ramble about the mountains of Ceylon, to ride around the Lebanon mountains, | and to wander among the Judean hills, <but nowhere have I ever detn mountains bo grand*, so majestic, so awe inspiring, so Beautiful . as the 'Alps. -~fto>m my hotel in Milan, I could see the snow oapped peaks of the Alps glistening in the sunlight. The old saying: ''Distance lends en chantment to the view", is ever true with the travel^ <m Europe. With regrets to leave Italy, but with high hopes and greatest expectations, I boarded the train for L^ucerne, Swit zerland. The high altitude, the cool -i &ir, the mountains in view had quick ened <the old instinct within me to want to ftet back into the highlands. the ride from Milan to Lucerne, is one of the most picturesque and in teresting in all the world. Along the way, were beautiful fields, vineyards, forests, rivens, streams, farm houses, here and there, and every few miles dotted with small towns ,as clean as a pin, n? trash, no papers, no brush, nothing to mAr the beauty, but every thing attractive. To see the towns and villages of Germany and Switzer land and then come back home anil note .the marked diffeience .is dis couraging to the progressive citizen. The towns and villages are as clean as our reception rooms. In all my travels through Switzerland, nn<< Germany, I never saw one trash piln even in a three thousand rr.i-e jour ney. As we went along the *vay, w< be/mn to climb the mouncaiiis, and soon we couki1 look down upon beau ? tiful country, pleasant paths that plunged into the shadows of fragrant pine foaests, pastures enlivened by twinkling bells, waterfalls that broke into spray long before they reached the ground, deep ravines, fields of al pine blossoms climbing up to tht very edge of the glaciers, vast traoVr of untrodden snow, proud and lofty peaks lifting their heads atxve a! else. I got a thrill out of it, &m1 ii made my blood tingle for, my ances tors came out of the mountains of Scotland. On, and on, up and up, we went till we came to Basel, which is on the boundary liu*?,- -between Italy and Switzeiland. In some places in Europe the cus tom officers come onto the trains, and inspect bargago. The ofi'ir.ers came into our car at BaaetpaTii v<> stood up, and saluted them, and tit once opened our bags jior *nem to in spect. They only gave our bu<rs a glance, and said: "All right " There were some German tourists in our compartment, but they did not take down their bags from the racks, so the custom officers pulled them down, and inspected their goods, by pulling the things out, and "mussing them all up." , Our guide left us at Basel, and from then on I was the conductor of the party. Sure did repret to tell the guide goodbye, for during our tour of Italy I did not have any responsibil ity, but only had to follow where (he guide led us. We were to tour Switzerland, France, Belgium, and England, and these were countries that I had not yet visited. The railroad' winds its way around the mountain?, or through tunnels, the hills, crosses streams, which dash down between mouivtaih sides. Italy and Switzerland are connected by the St. Gothard's tunnel, which is under the Alps., and is the longest toinnel in the world, fourteen miles in length. Of course if coal were used the tun nels would be stifling, as so many trains ipiass through it every day. The railroads of northern Italy and Swit nnnwwff VWITtl r?IUUMW tEAD IN STATE CONTESTS ? Corn and Sweet Potatoes in ?Abundance ? Kershaw County farmers now lead the entire state in. the matter of number of entrants in the State cprn and sweet potato contests and alao ran!c high in the cotton contest. All three of these crops are in good gTONvth condi to in now and indications point to the largest acreage ^nnd yields of corn 'and sweet potatoes this county has (probably ever had. If cotton fails or if the price goes low it will be a great relief to know that the people have a plenty of com rnd I potatoes to eat and feed stock on. [This is working in well with the county's program for Live -at-home farm inn and this record of contest ants indicates that the farmer? rvre cooperating very splendidly in the program. In every section of the county one can see good corn in larger quantities tkan usual and also many wlendid and large size sweet potato patches. There ate 151 contestants in the three crops. Their names 'and ad dresses are given below. This <fall the names of those completing the contests and turning in record hooka will be published. Sweet Potats ' Contestants R. C.

In most instances, the Ford has been chosen only after exhaustive tests of every factor that contributes to good performance? speed, power, safety, com fort, low cost of operation and upkeep, reliability and long life. Prominent among the companies using the Ford are the Associated Companies of the Bell System, Armour and Com pany, The Borden Company, Continental Baking Corporation, Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, General Electric Com pany, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com pany, Kellogg Company, Knickerbocker Ice Company, Morton Salt Company, Pillsbury Flour Mills Company, The Procter and Gamble Company, and Swift & Company. Each of tliese companies upcs a large number of Ford cars and trucks. The Associated Companies of the Bell System use more than eight thousand. Modern business moves at a fa3t pace and it needs the Ford. Daily, in count less ways and places, it helps to opeeil the production and delivery of t!io world's goods and extend the useful ser vice of men and companies. Constant, steady operation over many thousands of miles emphasizes the ad vantages of the sound design of the Ford car, its high quality of materials, and unusual accuracy in manufacturing. Beneath its graceful lines and beautiful colors there is a high degree of me chanical excellence. An example of the value buil^ into the Ford is the use of more than twenty ball and roller bearings. They are hidden within the car and you may never see them. Yet they play an important part in satisfactory, economical performance. Their function is similar to the jewels of a fine watch. Throughout the Ford chassis, a ball or ro!!er bearing is used at every place nvI ore it h needed to reduce friction i.ml wear a ad give smooth, reliable me chanical operation. At many points, as on the transnflssion counter-shaft, clutch release, fan and pump &haft, and front drive shaft, these ball and roller bearings are use4 where less costly types of bearings might be considered adequate. Additional instances of the high qnality built into the Ford are the ex tensive use of steel forgings, fully enclosed four-wlicel brakes, Rustless Steel, four Houdaille double-acting hy draulic shock absorbers, aluminum pis tons, chrome silicon alloy valves, torque-tube drive, three-quarter floating rear axle, and the Triplex shatter-proof .gJnss windshield. / The Ford policy has always been td^ use the be9t possible material for each part and then, through large produc tion, give it to the public at low* cost.
