How Big Should the Gasoline Tank Be?

But when car not only does this, but
increases it sales-l35% last year against
the 1870 increase of all other fine cars-it con-
clusively proves one thing that great many
thoughtful people have selected that car as
meeting the needs of today.
You've heard people all around you talk
ing Franklin and High Gasoline Mileage;
your common sense tells you that it can't be
an accident-tl1ere must be facts back of it,
Drop in the Franklin Sales Room and get
the facts. The Franklin story is short and
simple, and there isn't an "if' or but in it.
The remarkable Franklin Sales increase is
Just the eliminating triumph of a car that has
been piling up Economy Records for sixteen
years.

With one flling-27O miles to go-how
big should the Gasoline Tank of car be?
Your answer to the above question would
undoubtedly be: lit depends on how much
gasoline a car needs"
Exactly
The Franklin Car (on the Left scientific
ally free from unnecessary weight, runs 27O
miles on its gasoline tank capacity Of 1872
gallons at the rate of 20 miles to the gallon.
The average heavy car Con the right to
run the same distance would require a
cumbersome gasoline tank of 81 gallons at
the rate of ten miles to the gallon.
Why?
Simply because Of the mechanical law
as old as the ages-that weight requires power

Carolina are both far behind in
their War-Savings Stamps pur-
chases and pledges. Therefore
to make our county and State one
hundred per cent, a Drive will be
instituted from Thanksgiving
Day to Dec. 9th to get ALL OUT
STANDING War-Savings PIED
GES REDEEMED, and to get
$15O,OOO in NEW PLEDGES to
be redeemed by December 3lst,
which am0unt is what Richmond
county yet lacks in having sub
scribed its allotment of $32, 800.
Richmond county was allotted
$432,800 to raise. To Oct. lst
only $279,8l4 had been pledged,
and only $15l,S5l worth of
Stamps actually bought. The
Government is now asking those
who made pledges to redeem
them, and is asking those who
are able to buy MORE Stamps to
do so.
The feature for the Drive is
the observance of Thanksgiving
Day, Nov. 28th, as a War-Savings
Day, preparatory for the house
toulouse canvass to be made dur
| ing the following week. On
Thanksgiving Day, at an hour
not to conflict with the Thanks
giving services in churches, a
meeting of War workers will be
held in each precinct; and at this
meeting the chairman of. each
township will divide the precinct
into sections and assign a team
or group of workers to each Sc
ton. The meeting will be attend
ed by ALL War Workers of each
community, not only those who
have been active in Stamps sales,
but workers for Liberty Loans,
Red Cross, Allied War Relief etc.
Thanksgiving Day has been
selected as the day for launching
this Victory Drive because of its
special propriety in that it offers
an opportunity to the. people at
home to show in a practical way
their gratitude for the record that
the boys at the front have made.
1t is unbelievable that Rich
mond county will fall down in
this War-Savings matter. The
people are not asked to GIVE
one penny; they are simply asked
to BUY and INVEST in Govern.
ment securities known as War
Savings Stamps. For instance,
a Stamp bought at the postofflce
now for $4.22 will in 1923 be
worth $500. And, too, the pur'
chaser can get Stamps redeem
ed for cash at the postoffice any
time he chooses, on ten days
notice. What better investment
could a man desire? How better

could he save his wages? t..
Doubtless some think that be-
cause the war is over, there is no
need for raising money by the
sale of these stamps. Far differ.
ent. The Government has ex-
pended this money already in
war work, trusting to the honor
of the people that they would
furnish this money; and it is
needed. Also, some folks posi-
bly, in reading these lines may
impatiently imagine they are
TIRED of continually having to
read about buying bonds, Stamps
and giving to relief agencies. Let
them be tired! Imagine how tir-
ed they would be if they had been
in trenches, or with machine gun
bullets spatting around them,
like our boys had to undergo! No,
such folks are not tired; they are
simply a selfish set of stay-at-
homers. And each one ought to
be evcrlastingly ashamed if he or
she now fails to invest to the sac
riicing point in War-Savings
Stamps. Those who have already
bought Stamps are asked to buy
still more, and those who have
| bought none are asked to make
a beginning. For the informal
ion those who may be tired" of
reading so much about these
things, the Post-Dispatch begs to
assure them that its space is wide
open for just such appeals; and
the editor feels that if the Cause
could hc helped by contributing
every INCH of space; he would
gladly do it.
Onlast Tuesday a w. S. S. con-
ference was held at Hamlet for
the eight counties of this district.
Among those who were present
were a dozen colored men from
Arson county; among those col
ored men were SIX who have
bought $1,000 worth of Stamps
each; FOUR who had bought
$4,000 worth each; and one who
had bought each member of his
family (five) $1,000 worth each.
What a record for these colored
men! This is mentioned merely
to show the interest the colored
folks of Arson took in this mat
ter. Our Richmond county neg
roes will certainly not be any the
less backward. The county chair
man, Claude Gore, is arranging
a separate canvass for the color
ed folks, with their own chair
/, man and committees; and the
Post Dispatch predicts they will
come straight up to the scratch.

BOXES TO SOLDIERS
New Ruling by Government
to Insure Every Soldier
Overseas Getting Christ
mas Box. Time Limit for
Mailing Extended to Nov,
'3Oth.

NAotAAS AAtCAAOS0 W ANOVs
3Oth.
On Friday, Nov. 18th, the Rock
ingham Red Cross Chapter re-
ceived the following telegram
from Red Cross headquarters at
Atlanta:
"War and postoffice departments ex-
tend mailing time for Christmas par
GELS to Nov. 3Oth; also permit distribu-
tion of labels to relatives who have
not received labels by Nov. 21st."
This new ruling will bring JOY
and gladness to many hearts. 1t
will insure the receipt Of a Christ
mas parcel by every man in the
American Expeditionary Forces.
1t means that the Red Cross is
authorized to print an additional
number of Christmas labels ex-
actly similar to those received
from abroad to issue to those fam
lilies who have not received the
labels which were distributed to
the men abroad. In many cases
these labels had been lost in tran
sit, and the boys stood in danger
of receiving no package from
home.
And so the nearest relative
may now obtain from the Rock
ingham Red Cross Chapter from
Home Relief Secretary, Mrs. A.
L. Mcdonald, in Richmond Insur-
ance & Realty Co. Office in hotel
building) a duplicate label provid-
ed he Of she has NOT ALREADY
RECEIVED A LABEL. Appli-
cants must make a WRITTEN
statement saying that she or he
is the NEAREST living relative
of the man to whom the package
is to be sent, that he or she has
NOT RECEIVED A LABEL
FROM ABROAD, and that should
such a label be received it
WOULD NOT BE USED and
that to the best of his or her
knowledge and belief ONLY ONE
PACKAGE WILL BE SENT to
the proposed recipient.
The time limit for sending the
package is extendedto Nov. 3Oth,
If you have not already sent a
package to your boy in France,
and have no label, come to the
Home Relief Secretary without
delay, get a label and a cartor
and have your box made up as
soon as possible. Don't delay un
til the very last day. These
labels came Wednesday, and are
now ready for giving out.
The ruling requiring the boxe:
to weigh only three pounds still
holds good, of course. Also, box
es weighing as much as clever
pounds can still be sent to the
Allied armies Called" armies
as explained in the ost.Dispatcl
last week, does not include oul
Expeditionary forces.)
The Rockingham Chapter en-
deavered, both through letter.
and kilograms, to secure TIVE

boys overseas who had no one tt
whom to send their labels; bu
the Red Cross headquarters a

such "friendless" boys had beel
greatly overestimated and tina

and these had already been got
