ty Sunday school teacher one morn
ing. Sans face fell, and he shifted
his weight from one foot to the other.

Easy to Operate

The Overlands operate by pedal control.
One goes backward or forward, fast or
slow, by simply pushing pedals. 1t is as
free to steer.
The Overland has fewer parts than any
other automobile. One part is made to
take the place of many. 1t is free from
complexities. The operations are all au-
tomato.
A novice could run an Overland from
coast to coast the first time he tried. One
of these cars has run 1000 miles without
stopping the engine.
The herald-advance. (Milbank, S.D.) 1890-1922, 1910-05-27
Very Low Prices

The Overlands are made-as watches are
made-by modern automatic machinery.
And we devote a whole factory to one
model alone.
Because of these facts, and our enormous
output, we give more for the money than
anyone else. We have cut the cost 20
per cent in the past year alone.

The Lord Has Visited Tide.

A great meeting has just closed at
Tide, La. It began Saturday before
the third Sunday in August and lasted
seven days. Pastor J. B. Durham
did the preaching. There were 20
accessions to the church, 10 by letter
and 10 by baptism. The church was
revived greatly. II. G. Eagles led in
the singing, which was second to
none.
The church was organized the third
Sunday in September, 1909, with six
members. Now it consists of mem
bership of Al. These members COM
pose strong band of workers in the
Lords vineyard. The undersigned
had the pleasure of attending part OF
the meeting, and have never seen SO
small band of workers have greater
interest, and try to do more for the

The Election,

On ;ncxt Tuesday the Democratic
voters will select their standard bear
ers for Congressman and Board OF
Equalizers. For the latter office the
present incumbent, Hon. w. NJ. Wal
lace, has no opposition. For Congress
Hon. J. T. Watkins, present incum-
bent, and Judge a. J. Murff are can
didates. The endorsement at the
primary is equivalent to election. A
warm campaign, full Of acrimony, has
been carried out, but the voters have
taken little stock III the charges pre-
ferred. The result cannot be fore
told, but we do not look for anything
like full vote.
