THE 23-MILLIONTH HAS JUST BEEN BUILT It has never occurred before in auto* "• * mobile history that 25 million cars of t one make, bearing one name, have been manufactured under one man* agement. The 25,000,000th Ford car rolled off the Ford Rouge Plant pro duction line on January 18, 1937. 25 million cars since 1903 ... more than one-third of all the cars ever built... enough cars to transport the entire population of the United States. The figures represent a remarkable contribution to the social welfare, the industrial stability and the general progress of our country. People respect Ford efficiency. They know Ford uses fine materials, the best workmanship at good wages, the • moat exact precision measurements. They know these things are passed along to purchasers in the form of extra value. Naturally, they lib* to do business with such a company. That is the only reason it has been required to produce 25 million cars. Naturally, too, they expect more of a Ford car, more this year than last year — more FORD MOTO each year than the year before. They have every right to. The experience gained in building 25,000,000 cart en ables Ford to produce today a really superb motor car at a really low price — with the Beauty, Comfort, Safety and Performance of much more ex pensive cars. The 1937 Ford V-8 combines ad vanced design, all-steel construction, extra body room, and brilliant brakes with a choice of two V-type 8-cylin der engines — the most modern type of power-plant on land, sea, or ia the air. The 85-horaepower engine provides top performance with unusually good economy for its high power. The 60-horsepower engine gives good performance with the greatest gasoline mileage ever built into a Ford car—and wears the lowest Ford price People expect more of a Ford ear because it*s a Ford — and they get more, for the same reason. It is undeniahly the quality car in the low-price field. COMPANY DUNBAR-MYERS MARRIAGE. Miss Nell Dunber bee me the bride of Mr. Marion Myers at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William E.

The Denmark High School basket ball teams invaded Barnwell Tuesday afternoon and split a double-header with the locals by virtue of a 14 to 6 win for the boys in the nightcap fol lowing a 23 to 22 win for the home talent girls in the opener. The girls game was a hardfought affair throughout and the winner was not decided until the final whistle had blown. ^The visitors put up a stout defense and had an offense which threatened to turn the tide at any stage. However, the Barnwell lassies were just a shade too good for the visitors and took them into camp. This is Barnwell’s second win of the season over the Denmark sextet. In the boy’s setto, the visitors held the upper hand at all times and were never seriously threatened, despite the playing of Carter and Lemon for Barnwell, the latter scoring five of his team’s total of six points. For the visitors the whole team function ed well and there were no individual stars. This was the second loss of the season to the Denmark boys.

Owned hr OWES MOON, publisher Who- sten-Snlem f emmet end Sentinel, owner of Upwop Perms, Weodttoth, vL Speaker Blatt Improves. The many friends of Col. Solomon Blatt, speaker of the house of repre sentatives, will be glad to know that he ia rapidly recovering from an at- W E present a "dose-op" of a world-famous Jersey cow, Stockwell’s April Pogis of High Pastures — "April” for short. She made a world's record over all breeds—3217 lbs. butter fat in 3 lac tation periods within 3Vi years, each under Class A. A. with an average test of 6.46%. No Jersey farm in the world has ever bred, raised and ::sted her equal. The pastures are full of Jersey cows—but there’s only one "April.” She’s the empress—a hundred times nore valuable than the rank and fife d Jerseys—because Mother Nature gave her everything—a perfect nato-' ral balance of all the needed ele ments. So she eclipses all the others. Natural Chilean Nitrate of Soda is another example of Nature’s bal ance of many different elements. Just as Nature favored "April,” she fa vored Natural Chilean. To this ni trogen fertilizer she gave a natural balance of vital elements—the so- called vital impurities in her own wise blend. That’s why Natural Chilean in more than just quick-acting nitrogen. That’s why it is such an cffecthm food for your crops. p ^ Natural Chilean NITRATE of SODA MUMUU M TM MOUND IT COMSS ROM WU, Vital EUtnamu la Natan?, P.f.nr. m4 Maori 3RADIO-UNCLE NATCHEL & SONNY* ' FAMOUS CHILEAN CALENDAR CHARACIOS ^ See oaraoianeemcnU of leading Soatben
