GALLANT-BELK CO ‘^Greenwood’s Leading Department Store” t ■■■ A Sells Everything for Less GREENWOOD, S. C. VIXSWl A. C. Abercrombie, formerly of McCormick, S. C., and who has been connected with the Veterans’ Administration Facility, Johnson City, Tennessee, for the past 15 years, has been transferred for duties in Washington, D. C. Miss Louise Smith spent the past week end in Greenwood with Misses Mildred and Virginia Coffey. Mrrs Mary Kennedy is spending this week with Mrs. Douglass Hag gard. R. L. Suber and Frank Giffen spent several days here this week with Mr. and Mrs. R. D. Suber, en route to their home in Louisville, Miss., from Washington, D. C. Visitors in the home of Mr. J. II. McNeill Sunday were his brother, Mr. W. C. McNeill, Mrs. V/. C. Mc Neill, Messrs. Joe Wilson and Fran cis McNeill, all of Abbeville. Mr. ; McNeill has been quite ill for some time at his home here, hut is some what better at this time. Mr. A. C. Bradshaw of Parks- ville was a visitor here Saturday. Mr. J. M. Hemminger of Will- ington was a visitor here Satur day. “The Ford V*8 uses less fuel and oil for the power it gives than any other car we have ever made AND ITS UP-KEEP COST IS THE LOWEST ! Mr. and Mrs. Joseph McKinney of Troy were dinner guests at the home of Mrs. W. H. McKinney last Sabbath. Mr. A. P. Willis of Plum Branch was a visitor here Monday. Messrs. J. L. Smith and L. N. Brown spent Monday in Atlanta, buying mules and horses for the former’s sales stables here. Mr. Gray Abercrombie of Lan caster spent the week end here with his parents, Mr. and Mrs Austin Abercrombie. Mrs. J. B. Britt and children of Nintey Six were visitors here Tues day. ENTHUSIASTIC sales talk often begins and ends with gasoline mileage. Some salesmen would like you to believe it is the whole story of automobile economy. But drivers ought to know better. For, the fact is, it’s way down the list. The big items of car economy are low first cost, low up-keep cost and low de preciation. Savings here can make a great deal of difference in cost per mile. Gasoline mileage is more of a talking point than an economy factor. Check up and you will find that the difference between 17 and 19 miles a gallon is less than $10 for a whole year’* average driving (8400 miles- at 18 cents a gallon). Here are the big items that make the Ford the most economical car: More value for every dollar you pay* Lower cost for repairs and service. Long life. Slow depreciation. , Quality means economy and the 1936 Ford V-8 gives you more real quality than any other low-price car. No other car under $1645 has a V-8 engine. No other low-price car has Center-Poise Riding, safe, sure mechanical brakes and Safety Class all around at no extra cost. Mr. W. A. Winn of Plum Branch was a visitor here Saturday. Mr. Thomas W. Morgan of Clem- son College was a visitor here Fri day. • £ A WITH USUAL LOW DOWN-PAYMENT, BUYS ANY NEW FORD /V IVlV-liN 1 rl V-8 CAR ON NEW UCC «/2% PER MONTH FINANCE PLANS* Mrs. W. G.
