Dunbarton Hi-Notes. . - <* ... .
The elections which were held In
the separate districts on February
19th for the purpose of voting suffi
cient mills to bring each district co
operating with Dunbarton District to
a twelve mill levy for the High
School were carried favorably. In
Columbia district there were 28 votes
cast, every one favorable; ^Meyer’s
Mill; 28 for, none againsfc Greenland
cast 7 votes solid for the levyf Joyce
Branch had two votes against and
five for; while in San Hill, where the
opposition was greatest the vote
stood, 18 for and 15 against.
These results show that the peo
ple want a school that is second to
none in this section of the State and
are willing to pay for it. It is a
credit to these communities to have
voted for the measure in the manner
they did. It shows that they are
willing to ‘cayry their share of the
burden of operating a school.
The opposition in the election did
not amount to anything in any of
the districts exce'pt San Hill._ In.this
district the fight was bitter, and con
sequently the ’election was close.
Those who opposed the levy raised
money to employ a lawyer to secure
a restraining Order from the courts
to restrain the trustees, the county
board, the auditor, and the treasurer
from collecting the increased levy.
The case was heard last Monday be
fore Judge Wilson at Barnwell.
Counsel for the defense concurred
with the complaint and the election
has been thrown out as a result of
the alleged irregularities. Judge
Wilson ruled that the election could
be held over, which will probably be
done as soon as possible. On ac
count of the mix-up of matters - w
this district; it is impossible to deter
mine the status of San Hill with re
gards to our school propostion at
Dunbarton, but there are those who
think that the next-election, which
will be carried out strictly according
to the letter of the law, will carry
by even a larger vote than did the
first one.

Somebody should warn owners of
mills in Passaic that they are run
ning risks. This nation was inter
ested when gas bombs first appear
ed in the big war. It will not be
E leased to hear of employers fight-
ig a strike, legal in .character, us
ing gas bombs against their work
ers, and turning heavy streams of
cold water on women and children,
when Lear gas failed to do the
work.
Now the workers have bought
two thousand gas masks to be
ready for the next attack, which is
not pleasant reading in this pros
perous republic. We are doing
pretty well here; industrialists
are not exactly starving to death.
They should warn those Passaic
idiots against upsetting the apple '

{Shortly thereafter the Improved Chevrolet was announced
at these reduced prices. Instantly it met with such an increase
in popularity-that it became necessary to break all previous pro
duction lecords for January and February.
And Now—A Further Saving
Althoug the reduction in automobile taxes does not become
officially effective for some time, the full amount of this re
duction is now passed oh ' to Chevrolet buyers. Thus Chevrolet
again emphasizes that principal of value on which it has built
the greatest success ever attained by any manufacturer of

Then Samuel Moore, seventeen-
year-old captain of the high school
rifle team at Newton, Mass., re
assures you with his new world's

That young gentleman, it sounds
unbelievable, made three thousand
consecutive bullseyes between eight
o’clock in the njoming and five in
the evening. Neither Charleston
nor premature hootch has ruined
thet young man’s nerves.
The world has been much explor
ed since and before the days of
Marcr. Polo, and the exploring goes
on. Ten expeditions are about to
start for the polar regions, some
to find the Pole again, others to
seek new lands, and, perhaps, oil,
gold, etc. Others go in the interest
of science. V
In Can ada^frozen rbads are pafclc-
ed with gold seekers, defying the
temperature fifty degrees belot'
zero, in a new gold rush; gold
seekers, mushing in dog sleds, rac
ing to the new strike where “gold
is showing over a stretch of coun
try five miles in length, with good
ground still unstaked.” It won't
remain unstaked long. Say “gold”
and peopl* move as when you cry
“fire.”

Hubby had fallen down the steps
and his wife was anxiously bending

“Oh. I’m sorry. Did you miss a

“No,” he growled; “I hit ‘em all.”

Costs More to Build-Is Worth
More—Yet Sells for Less
If any other manufacturer
endeavored to produce a car
similar to the Ford according
to the high standards of the
Ford Motor Company, ij;.would
be impossible to offer it at any
thing like the present low Ford
prices.
If the Ford Motor Company
would substitute ordinary de
sign for .the! basic Ford features,
Ford cars could be produced
and sold for less than the present
Ford prices. Yet by so doing,
Ford simplicity, durability*and
reliability would fall below the
standard insisted upon by the
Ford Motor Company.
Just think! 13,000,000 model T
Ford cars have been produced
since 1908—almost as many
automobiles as were built by all
other manufacturers combined.
In 1925, almost 2,000,000 Ford
cars and trucks were built and
sold—and plans for 1926 call for
the production of even more
than 2,000,000. ■ , ■ ■
It was the superiority of Ford
design in 1908 that established
Ford leadership. It is this same
Ford design, improved but
basically unchanged, that is
continuing to make the Ford
car the outstanding leader
among alt autqmobiles.
