higher and higher above the surround

freshets and increased by tributaries
often the maddened Mississippi like a
great ocean torrent sweeps down its
course bearing away on its bosom all
opposition. Its waters would soon
leave the banks, flood the fertile coun-
try for miles around, deprive thous-
ands of home and life, but for the fact
that on its banks great levees are
built, mighty dykes constructed to
beat back the oncoming waves. In
times of danger hundreds Of men, leaV-

day after day and night after night to
see that all is secure. The smallest
opening which the finger Of child

GOOD REASONS why
you should have your car
overhauled now and worn
parts replaced.
FIRST: The garage man
can give you better service
and you can spare the
car better now than later.
No matter whether you are
going to keep the car, or
sell or trade it in on a new
one-it will pay you well
to have it thoroughly over
hauled, worn parts replaced
by new ones and body re-
painted.
SECOND: We are able to
furnish replacement parts
for all models of above
makes of cars within 4S
hours from receipt of Or
der. Have concentrated
this branch of the business
at Newcastle, Ind. (center
of population of the U. S.
Here we have a $l,750,OO0
investment in plant and
stock. $4,000 separate bins
of parts.
THIRD: And perhaps the
best reason why you should
secure your requirements
now-we must increase
prices 2O% January LIST,
when the new parts price
lists will be off the presses.
NOW NOTE THIS-Never
before in the history of this
industry has a new con-
Germ, having bought the
plants and assets of a bank
rupt one, taken upon itself
the obligation of furnishing
replacement parts for the
cars it never made.
