' j » - 1 ~ The showroom of the Dicks Auto ’ <3o., local Pord dealers, will be just bout the most popular place in the '"city this week. Ford National Show WeeJf, which opened Saturday and J < r will continue through next Saturday evening, has brought out the greatest t xhibit in the history of the Ford Motor Company. Not only is a full line of cars being shown, but the trim lines of the various types are enhanced by such new appointments fcs top boot and gypsy curtains, wind shield wings and windshield wiper supplied by the Ford Motor Company. This special equipment, is being ex hibited for the first time in _ Ford Natoinal Show week and should prove mighty interesting even to those who .-;re already driving improved Ford cars. In addition to the cars and special ties, representative types of Ford .—Ton-Trucks and Fordson Tractors - with both industrial and agricultural equipment will be displayed. Arrangements for the week’s dis- j.lay here were made by, the Char- 'otte branch of the Ford Motor Co. to coincide with > exhibits in every ‘dealer’s showroom in the United States. The purpose of the display is to give the people of Barnwell and vicinity an opportunity to become better acquainted with the improved Ford cars. Ford service so thor- I jr^ughly covers the county that there a showroom convenient to practical ly every home and the displays will Remain open in the evening to ac comodate those whose day is occu pied. In Ford cars which will be shown during the National Show week are incorporated improvements in body "design and construction and chassis Refinements more pronounced than r.ny made in the histoiy of the Model T chassis. Although thousands of these improved cars in operation all ever the country at the present time, there a r v s t'll many persons who have not had an opportunity to view the entire line and inspect in detail the improvements which so generally increase the popularity of Ford cars. The first impression of the Ford cars for l&i?t) is one of increased Wauty and smartness. Bodies are hmger and lower, fenders hang low- over -the wheels and closed cars are bnished in rich harmonious color schemes. Rut beauty is not the only duality to !>encfit by the redesigning, iding comfort has been increased by ider, lower* seats and greater leg- om. New features of convenience have also been incorporated in these new cars. The gasoline, d mk is now tilled from outside the car and in the open types, a door at the driver’s left permits entry or exit without dis turbing the front seat passenger. Both transmission and rear wheel brakes have been enlarged. By Arthur Brisbane MEXICO WORKS. THE DEVIL A BUILDER. WE FEAR TO JUMP. A $10,000, 000 TRAIN, The J. G. Whitq Engineering Cor poration undertakes a $30,000,000 ir rigation scheme for Mexico. Any thing that helps Mexico pleases us, BUT what about the waters of the Colorado River that wander, wasted, through the United States and then down into Mexico? . As fast as she uses water for irri gation, Mexico establishes an inter national right with which this country must not interfere. While Western States are fighting as to which shall have the water that goes to waste through the deep can yon, while private power companies block any use of that water, fearful that the people may get the benefit, Mexico will establish a claim, and our States through which the great river passes will be informed that they must not draw off enough water to interfere with Mexi^ofs established irrigation rights. President Cooledge might interest himself in that. It may become a serious problem for himself or his successors. lf> a “Turken” j w Brown Volunteers r .v J- To Defend Nickels C. V Nepper of Randolph, Mass., has crossed a chicken and a turkey and exhibited the species called “Turken” at the New England poultry show last weekf! Poultry men say it is a very toothsome fowl for the dinner table. Greenwood, Jan. 10.—Edgar A. Brown, speaker of the South Carolina house of representatives, has volun teered; to defehd, without any cost, Aubrey Lee Nickels, Greenwood youth, who has twice been sentenced to death in Florida for an alleged at tack upon a woman. This became known here when Representative Sam King of Green- -wood, a close friend of the speaker, reived a letter asking that the of fer of services be communicated to R. W. Nickels, father of the young man. The news was forwarded to the boy’s mother, who went to Jack sonville a few days ago to be near her son. Speaker Brown said he was in spired to make the offer only be cause he believed in the innocence of Nickels, who was recently grant ed a new trial by the Florida su preme court some months after his second conviction. The attack is al leged to have taken place at De Land in 1921. ~rr- Let Us FiU Your Tank with Advertise in The People-Sontinel. BACK GIVEN OUT? 1 hen Follow the Advice of This Barn- * well Resident.

A sudden twinge often carted through my kidneys when I stooped and-when I straightened my head felt dizzy land peculiar. My kidneys did not act right. The drug gist told me to try Doan’s Pills They were fine ami I was able to go about my work without my back and kid neys bothering me.” OOc, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. # Three of the largest, richest Luth eran churches in New York are con sidering a merger, the combination to build a skyscraper with a* church tucked away in it, according to mod ern ideas. How would that impress Martin Luther, who says in his “Table Talks”: “For where God built a Church, there the devil would also build a chapel.” If the Lutherans build a skyscraper chuich, would the devil find it neces sary also to build a skyscraper chapel ? Reverend James S. Montgomery, chaplain of the House of Representa tives, puts the modernist and funda mentalist problem in few words; “Modernists say, “There ain’t no he^^. J, Fundamentalists say, “The hell there ain’t.” The average man says, “There may, there may not be, such a superheat ed resort. But to avoid running risks I shall behave decently.” You may add that he doesn’t amount to much who refrains from sin only because he fears that he may go to hell. to kill themselves in Venice on one day last week. “General misery” is the explanation. Gas was the fav orite exit, revolvers are so expensive. Jumping from a height is even cheap er and surer than gas. There is no turning back once you start down. But those tired of life are usually weak in will, and it takes will to jump into space, men since their al leged early free days having had bred in them an intense aversion to falling off the limb. • That, evolutionists say, is why we dream so often of falling. And it explains woman’s horror of snakes. The snakes could crawl out along the limb and steal the sleeping baby from its mother. Any good anti-evolution- that’s nonsense. Make a good mousetrap and, as you know, the world will wear out a path to your door. Run a railroad well and your path across the clohti- nent will also be well used. The Twentieth Century, New York Cen tral train between New York- and Chica'go, ran in seven sections one way and six the other recently. Its managers proudly announce that they took in on that one train $10)000,000 last year. It costs more to go from New York to Chicago now comfortably, than it did to go from New York to Liver pool on the fine old steamship Spain, first class, years ago. The flying ma chine will correct that. Men now of middle age will live to head this: “Chicago to New York in three hours, round trip $25..” And Prave to You the superiority of This Wonderful Gas.

By reason of reprisal the Massa chusetts Legislature is asked to drive out British insurance .companies. Such talk is foolish. Uncle Sam, his, pockets bulging with gold, and play ing the part of a “cry baby,” makes himself unnecessarily rediculous. Besides, in the California fire Eng- lish insurance companies paid what they owed in full, which is more than can be said for some American Com panies. Good-bye to the horse. Los Ange les is the first city to have “no-horse” streets. Washington forbids horse- drawn vehicles on four important thoroughfares. That will spread. The horse is happier in the coun try, away from hard streets. He is no longer necessary in the city, no excuse for bim. Even' if were a little cheaper ^or some work, which is doubtful, he should vanish. Get a truck. — * • NATIONAL SHOW WEEK JANUARY 9-16 Exhibiting the Improved Ford Cars and .
