ASplendid Tribute
to the Ford Car

One of the strongest tributes
which has ever been paid to the
strength, tleNibility and, endurance
of the Ford Car came from the pen
of the Commander of the First
Anglo-Serbian Field Hospital during
the awful flight of the defeated Ser
bian Army. When she led her en-
tire unit safely through icy torrents
and over snow-capped mountains
terrible trek of 500 miles to the
outskirts OF Belgrade.
There was only one thing to he
DONE" she says. IF the whole hos
pital was not to be taken by the
enemy. The staff, who usually rode
in the motors, must walk; the worst
wounded must go in the motors.
those who could crawl must crawl.
and as for the others
The road was abominable. with
mud and holes and narrow and
broken bridges. We were continu-
ally, all through the night obliged
balances and carry them over the
dangers. while the motors-those
wonderful Ford cars-performed
acrobatic feats inconceivable to
orthodox chauffeurs at home"
The West Shore dealer. for the
Ford car is Brooks Weigle of the
New Cumberland Auto Co. These
little old Fords do just the same
kind of stunts over here; but they
are not so noticeable. because of the
great number running around. 1t
is not an uncommon occurrence to
see a Ford get a good healthy bump,
and as soon as the smoke clears
away, it starts off again.

Sanitary Plumbing
Fixtures the Best

The best grade of plumbing fix-
lures are none to good for an yone
from the point of economy. When
buying the fixtures for a bath room
or kitchen, the first cost should be
considered only with the after cost,
Often times the cheaper grade of
fixtures cost the most in the long
run.
With the better grade of fixtures
guarantee always covers any minor
details and the first cost is usually
the last cost, and the satisfaction
of having the best, is greater than
when you have to worry whether
your fixtures are going to work all
right.
r. n. Wagner & Son, of Io-
Gust and Boas Streets, Penbrook,
handle only the best grade of mater
ial for plumbing, heating and gas
fixtures. In installing these mater
ials, they have only experts to do
the work. Everything must be sat
isfactory to the customer before Il
job is finished They have a large
reputation for performing good SER
vices in their line of business.
Spring repair work and the install
lation of new work is going on, on
as large a scale as ever, only the
shortage of materials holding up
some of their jobs.

Lots of Nourishment in
Good Fresh Milk

Good fresh milk contains a great
deal of nourishment and to drink
plenty of it may mean an additional
ten years to your life. Doctors rec
commend milk to people whose
health is failing and many are those
who have been successfully built up
by simply drinking a glass of milk
each day.
There are different kinds of milk,
the same as there are different
grades of bread, or different grades
of meat. The best that is obtain
able is none too good. When buy
ing milk, Il person should always
take into consideration where ii
comes from and the way it is hand
led before it finally reaches the
home. Too much care and consid-
Grafton in the handling of milk and
cream is an unknown quantity, yet
there are many milkmen who take
great deal of pride in their equip
ment and the cleanliness with which
they distribute the milk.
The stock from which the milk
comes has to be carefully tended
and the barns we'll taken care of.
Most up-to-date milkmen have con-
crete floors and modern sanitary
methods to use in their dairy barns.
Good, healthy, welIAontented stock
produce the best grades of milk and
that is the kind that should be used
by the sick persons as well as the
well ones. Milk is the universal food
for babies and for this reason good
Judgment in choosing your milkman
is essential.

Kramer, proprietor, of Penbrook

great deal of pains in the handling
of the milk and cream that passes
through his establishment. He has
all the modern and up-to-d date equip
ment known to the dairy trade. The
milk he sells comes only from the
best Guernsey and Holstein stock
and is carefully handled from the
time it leaves the farm until it
reaches your door.

The passage of big shells displaces

Coca-Cola Popularity
on the Increase


1t is an uncommon occurrence to
walk into a soda dispensary and not
hear some one say "Coca-Cola,
with" No matter where you so or
when YOU so, you will always here
that familiar name.
Coca-Cola is by no means Il new
product on the market. 1t has been
quenching the thirst of millions
every year, FOR the past good many
years, and is still on the increase in
its march for popularity. 1t is one
of the best thirst quenchers on the
market And the market is not a
local one, it is almost universal.
Coca-Cola is sold from Greenland's s
icy mountains to India's coral
strands and is pleasing alike to
young and old.
Coca-Cola branches are every
where. They all come under the
mother wing of the main factory,
but in order to insure prompt and
efficient service. each branch makes
its own Coca-Cola. In Harrisburg
the branch is located at 1926 Marion
street, and is open for inspection at
all times. Everything is conducted
under the most sanitary conditions.
All the latest appliances for bottling
and bottle washing are installed, and
the swiftness with which this bever-
age is turned out is marvellous.
Thousands of bottles n day are sent
out from this branch to all the terri
tory around Harrisburg.
Coca-Cola can be purchased by
the glass, bottle. or by the case for
home use. The good old summer
time is on its way and when you
settle down to think of what the
summer drink will be, don't forget
the best, "Coca-Cola."
