history of the State Fair track.
The trapk is a half mile circuit and

six years, and never fails to draw a
■plendid collection of horses. An

has arranged for a Forest City derby
in addition to the many other harness
events. More than $4,000 is listed for j
the winner^, a* shown by a sppeial

The dispatch from Washington tell-
iing of the recommendation for. his
appointment to the rank of Major
General is as follows:
Distinguished honor came t6 Brig.
Gen. Johnson Hagood of South Caro
lina, today in the announcement by
Acting Secretary of War Dwight F.
Davis that after consultation with
Secretary of War Weeks it had been
decided to recommend to the Presi
dent the - promotion of Gen. Hagood
to be a major general'from August
End to fill the vacancy in that grade
created by retirement of Major Gen.
Bamuel D. Sturgis, now in command
b'f the Third Army Corps area.
Promoted Over Older Men.
The point about Gen. Hagood’s pro
motion is that he is given the highest
present active grade in the U. S.
army at the comparatively early age
of 52 years, whereas there were a
number of officers eligible for the aip-
pointment. His selection over all
these older men is a notable recogni
tion' of his efficiency and soldierly
merit. ‘ -
Gen. Hagood was bom at Orange
burg June 16, 1873. He secured an
appointment to West Point and on his
graduation he \yas assigned' to the
coast artillery, in which arm he has
Served .continuously with intervals of
several years as a member of the
general staff. In the World War he
was first commanding'officer of the
7th Coast Artillery regiment, then
chief of staff of the service of supply
In France and commanding general of
its advance sectrdn^uhd finally com
manding general of- the Sixty-sixth
Artillery brigade. . - *
For this war work. Gen.Hagood re
ceived from his own government the
distinguished service medal with
Citation of “ex;epti'jnal]y meritorious
and distinguished services, ability for

Greater Power, More Protec
tion to Working Parts In
cluded; Prices Lower
Bulck again demnnatrated the
marvelous resources and abilities of
the autcmotlve industry when It in-
tr('.dOv > 'd the present Better Bulck.
Kmbruced In thin latest Bulck offer
ing are additional power and.
strength, .the newest engineering
aefflevements designed to give even
longer motor car life, the maximum
Ip comfort and safety, besides new
b-cuty and refinements of design,
and finish representing the latest
skill in body craftsmanship. And
in face of these material and costly
improvements lower prices are An
nounced throughout the entire line
of Standard hnd Master Sixes.,
The announcement and the »how-
ing* of the better BUicks silenced the
rumors that Bulck would abandon
the valve-in-head for another type
engine which would permit of cheap
er construction. The same principles
that were inaugurated by Bulck 31
year* ago and which hay* made It
the leader In the Industry have been
adhered to throughout.
The mechanical improvements in
troduced would have been consid
ered impossibilities only a year ago.
They represent the work of Bulck
research and engineering staffs con
stantly striving for betterments.
H The new prices liktwlse represent
achievements of the engineering,
production . and business depart
ments of the Buick. organisation, and
are in no small measure due-to the
phenomenal approval of Buicks by
the public. This latter factor has
resulted in continuously increasing
sales With the attendant possibili
ties of economies in purchasing and
t production.
The complete line includes Ifr-ntod-
Ms. six in the Standard Six and ten
in the Master Six class. In all-cases
the distinctive Buick lines have
been continued, with refinements
such as the rounding of radiator
lines and the addition of streamline
ipouldings. All are finished In new
and beautiful tones at durable Duco.
Some of the model* have Duo-tone
Duco flnteb la itetlnctlvt wmblna-
tions. AH closed bodies are by Fish
er and are upholstered in quality
plush.
Buick has always, been noted for
its sealed chassis, which -prevents
dirt or water entering any of the
moving parts. Now it has addAd an
air cleaner, oil Alter and gasoline
Strainer. These, combined with the
rftandard Buick construction, prac
tically eliminate the possibility of
any foreign substance entering the
engine or moving parts of the
chassis and*, consequently, minimize
service requirements and add to the
life of the car.
Because these three new units
have no moving parts, there is noth
ing to get out of adjustment. .Tbfey
require no power—In fact are thor
oughly automatic, and require only
occasional cleaning to remove the
dirt'and grime gathered from the
&lr, fuel and oil.
The above illustration shows the
Standard Six five-passenger,~ two-
door sedan. The price.ot this model,
$1,1*5, Is representative of the in
creased value* included in the en-
tlrs ltn« of Better Buidks.
Notice is hereby jriven that we will
file our final report with John K. Shel
ling, Judge of Probate for' Barnwell
County as Administrators of the es
tate of W. D. Fanning on Saturday,
August 29th, 1925, and petition the
said Court for an Order of Discharge
