Beautiful Ford V-8 Modern In Styling Fundamental advancement in body ami chants design that establish an entirely new standard of riding comfort is an outstanding feature of the new 1936 Ford V-8 on exhibit "here at The Redfearn Motor Company. Witile the modern styling of tho new car has attracted many, no other feature of the Ford V-8 has claimed so much attention ahd admiring comment from visitors, according to Ford Dealers. i The combination of "extended) springbase"?a basic new treatment of the springs and sprii^ mountings introduced for the first' time in the new Ford-r-together with revolutionary change in the riding position of passengers and the retaining of free action on all four wheels are responsible for the new comfort of the 1935 models. , iSeats in the new cars are located between the front and rear wheels whore riding ease is greatest. In this position, all road shocks and bumps transmitted to the frame from uneven pavement and'rough roads are minimized almost to the varnishing point. The rear seat has been moved forward to a position eight and a half inches further ahead in the 1935 car, this being accomplished by moving the engine the same distance toward the front without changing the length of wheel base. The front springs, increased seven and five-eighths inches in length, are now mounted three and five-eighth s inches in front of the axle; the lengthened rear springs two and a half inches toward the rear, compared with the former model. Both springs are softer to improve their riding qualities and the leaves have been widened, modified and tapered to give greater flexibility and remove any possibility of squeaking. The distance from center to center of the springs is now 123 inches. This gives the Ford car the equivalent of better than that length wheelbase and riding qualities far in excess of the ordinary car of that length. The transverse spring design, an outstanding feature of Ford cars since their inception, permits free action on al! four wheels. Double-action hydraulic shock absorbers acting independently are used. Operating as a unit with the springs, these shock absorbers add materially to the new ride as does the low center of the new car. Still another important comfort feature is provided by the wider seats in the 1935 Ford. Front seats vary from four ahd a half inches in the sedans to five and a half inches wider in the coupes than in the previous cars. Rear seats are one and a half inches wider. I George Collett, accused of receiving stolen goods, went on a wild rampage Tuesday night in the Copper Creek section of Kentucky, shot five of his relatives to death, including his wife, and her father, and two other persons seven Ln all, and then scribbled his will, and when sorrounded by officers committed suicide. Charles Williams, a World war veteran, staggered into Phoenix, Arizona, out of the ^Superstitious mountains, nemesis of miners, with a pound and a half of gold tied up in his shirt sleeves which he had cut off. He claimed there was (much more in the mine where it came from, but he couid not again locate the mine. Congressman Dies of Texas, has introduced a resolution in congress by the terms of which almost "3,000,000 aliens" would be immediately deported. He would put the deportation law under the department of justice, taking it away from the labor department. Dies would appropriate $50,000,000 so adequate personnel" could be employed to carry out the law's provisions. J Samuel Vaught, probate judge for Horry county for 25 years, died at his home in Conway, aged 83 years. Great Throng Sees Inauguration Columbia, .Jan. 15.--'Preceded by a military parade und several bunds, Olin D, Johnston, 38-year-old Spar4*nburg lawyer, arrived at the state < aj>ito 1 today ami was sworn in as governor of South Carolina for four years. Johnston, wearing a simple brown business suit, hat ami overcoat, Ascended through a cheering crowd of 15,000 to a stand on the front steps ; of the capitol at noon. | He bared his head as the Rev. I). It. (/amack of Canton, N. C., a personal friend offered the invocation. An icy wind blew across the capitol portico and grey clouds shut out the least glimmer of sunlight during the ceremony. Johnston moved beside Acting Chief Justice John G. Stabler of St. Matthews, placed his hand on the little,Bible he carried during the World war, and was administered the oath of office. Johnston, Chief Justice Stabler, the Rev. Mr. Camack and members of the governor's family from four states sat in a red, white and blue decorated stand out on the landing between the two massive flights of steps leading up the capital. Members of the senate and high officials took places oh the huge buttreses on each side of the steps and level with the inaugural stand. The house of representatives was grouped on the next landing below. Car Turns Over 4 Times On 521 While traveling at a rate of 65 miles an hour a car in which eight people of near Kershaw were traveling turned over on Route 521 Sunday night just a short distance south of Lancaster- and though the ear was going at a fast rate of speed and turned over four times none were seriously injured. Fred Byrd of Jefferson was driving the car and a number of the Williams family which live near Kershaw were in the car at the time of the accident. ! Fred Byrd, aged 21, Iva Lee Williams, aged 11, and Mary Catherine Williams, aged 5, were all that were treated at the Lancaster hospital. They all had cuts and bruises but none were serious. The automobile was a Ford Y-8 which turned over.four times as the driver lost control of the machine. It is said that the car went off the road onto the shoulders and in coming back swerved to the extreme left side of the road and back before leaving th road and turning over. Just how it happened that none were seriously hurt as the car turned over after going at such a fast rate of speed is not known but the theory is advanced that the eight persons in the car were crowded so closely together that they were not hurled about in the machine. While none of the occupants were seriously hurt the car was badly damaged.?-Lancaster News. From Dan To Beersheba It was Sunday morning in a men's class in an English church school. "Will you please tell me," said a member of the teacher, "how far in actual-miles Dan is from Beersheba? All my life I have heard the familiar phrase 'from Dan to Beersheba,' but I have never known the distance." Before the answer could be given another member arose in the back of the room and inquired: "Do I understand that Dan and Beersheba are the names of places?" "Yes." "That is one on me. I always thought that they were husband and wife, like Sodom and Gomorrah."? Vancouver Province. While a dense peasoup fog, due to warm weather, held most of the northern Atlantic seaboard in its grasp on Wednesday, a heavy blizzard was sweeping over much of Europe. Sent Six To Death Bravely battling toward recovery from serious injuries, Miss Levora Grimes, 20, of Robersonville, lone survivor of an autcumobile crash near Wake Forest late Shnday night which snuffed out the lives of six of her friends, yesterday told her mother from her hospital bed here how she pleaded repeatedly, but in vain, with the car's driver to turn the wheel over to her. "I begged and begged him, mother to let me drive," the young woman > said, referring to S. Clayton Mizzelle, 19, of Windsor, operator of the death car. "He had been drinking. But he i insisted he could handle the car and wouldn't give me the wheel,"?Raleigh News and Observer. The above is the tragic finale of a terrible automobile accident Sunday, night in Wake' county in which six, people were killed, four outright and | two others within a few hours after j the wreck. One of the girls in the wreck lay for three hours beside the bank of the Neuse river, undiscovered ! by searchers. Mangled bodies were' strewn all over the bridge, said the coroner. And in the two paragraphs above quoted from the Raleigh paper we have the cause of the whole thing? a drinking driver, and yet potential murderers like him are allowed to skip through our courts every day unpunished. When will the courts and judges in North Carolina awake to the fact that we can not afford to fool with these drinking drivers any longer? Why is it that they are allowed to get off with nominal fines and sentences? Why is it that they come up in our courts, from time to time and plead the mercy of the court, only to go back to their murderous driving? We have had instance after instance here in Gaston county of drinking drivers going scot free. One of the most notorious examples is still on the court records. The accident happened last summer or early fall and here it is the first of the next year and nothing done. Records of our city court will show, too, that there have been many cases where defendants have eacaped with fines and suspended sentences.

Listen to this description of the wreck in Wake county Sunday night: "Coroner L. M. Waring, who has said no inquest into the tragedy will be necessary, reported finding a bot-' tie partly filled with whiskey in the' wrecked machine. " 'I asked L^vora about this and she said the whiskey was Mizzelle's," Mrs. Grimes said. "Hurtling along the road at a high rate of speed the loaded car struck an abutment to the Neuse river bridge, six miles west of Wake Forest on the Durham highway. "Four of the young people were killed outright. "Miss Whitfield was thrown over the abutment, fell 18 feet to the msjreh below, and was not found until three hours later. Her body badly broken, she was unconscious and died at 1:80 a. m., Monday, while being rushed bo a hospital here."?Gastonia Ouotte.
