AGENTS APPLY FUR
 THE COMMONWEALTH

The George H. Reuben Auto com pany at 227 North Central avenue, is receiving a number of attractive appli- cations from all over the state for branch agencies to handle the new Commonwealth four forty This car is becoming acquainted here as The Car with the Foundation" and it's sturdy construction bears out the slogan. The Commonwealth four-forty is a stylish, substantial car with a remarkable rec ord for economical operation and has become very popular in every part of the country in which it has been in- troduced.
 Moderate in price, with plenty of power to meet every need, this latest product of the Commonwealth Motors company of Chicago meets the wishes of the most discriminating car buyer. This car recently made a Remarkable trip of 797 miles, across mountain and desert trails with only one filling of the radiator. A similar economy of gasoline and oil is enjoyed by the Com monwealth owners, the average driver

was made by manufacturer, who, is no longer in business. Like the child, it is an orphan, and when the orphan is in need of parts the owner learns the only way to secure these parts IS to have them made to order and the cost of a part, which under ordinary circumstances would be triffling, be- comes prohibitive and the owner un- loads his car at the first opportunity and it is only a short time until It finds it way to the automobile or phanage,'' namely, the junk yard.
 How is a person to know when buy ing a car whether or not the manu- facturer will be in business a year or two hence? This question looks like q sticker, but the answer is simple. But a car whose makers use in it's con struction units that have proven by the years of service rendered, they are Tn business to stay. For example, the Moon car can never be an orphan. Supposing for some reason the factory

should cease operations, there would still be Continental to furnish you with motor parts, Tinlken will always fur nish you with axles and bearings, Delco will be there to give you ignition service and so on down the line. Every part is a proven one, and regardless of the maker, they will always be available at the lowest possible cost.
 The surest way of guarding against having aH orphan" on your hands is to buy ah assembled car which con- tains units that have stood the test of time.

getting over twenty miles to the gallon of gas.
 Beauty, strength and enduraince are the pertinent values that are rapidly being accepted as standard qualities of the Commonwealth four forty by dis criminating motorists. A delightful treat is in store for anyone wishing demonstration of the four-forty, one of which can now be seen at the sales rooms of the George H. Reuben Auto company at 227 North Central avenue.

THIS CAR WOW I
 BE AN ORPHAN

Of course everyone knows an orphan Is one who suffers the misfortune of being mortherless and fatherless. When the term 'an orphan is used when referring to an automobile, great many wonder what is meant
 An orphan automobile is in about the same sad plight as an orphan child. If the child has no relatives to care for it, there is left but one place for it to go, an orph2nage. In the case of an automobile it is the junk yard.
 What is really meant by an orphan automobile? It is an automobile that

Without awaiting the final result of
the membership campaign, the pro-

State to select representatives on the
new Board of Control. Then as the
next step, the new Board of Control

which various activities are to be
taken up, and, in general, the scope of
work for the ensuing year, now that
the Development Board has been ex-

down quotations on hogs to a point

influenced by the depression of other

Country loadings of corn were said
to have increased, and this circum-
stance, together with new low-price
records for commodities aside from
farm produce, led to general selling

ASSOCIATION ACTION
New Suit Instituted By Receiver Of
Ripley Building Association Will
Add Thousands Of Dollars to the
Observation-Disclosures Quashed.

Chambers Baird, of Ripley, Receiv-
er for the Peoples Building and Loan
Association of that city, whose secre-
tary. l.. V. Williams, is being held on
a charge of embezzlement, has
brought suit at Georgetown making
one of the shareholders in the cor
poration defendant.
The action brought by the Receiver
is in the nature of test case, for it
is claimed that there are about eighty
of such mortgages now held by the
company. and that the amounts
claimed by the mortgagors to have
been paid to the company, on similar
pass books and as credits on such
| mortgages, aggregate about s25.000.0O.
II will be seen that If these amounts
are allowed as credits on such rort-
gage loans, the assets of the company
will be reduced to the amount to
which credits are allowed: and that il
they are not allowed as such pay
ments. the mortgagors will have to
pay the full amount Of the mortgage
Indebtedness and share a per centum
in the distribution.
Cader these circumstances, Judge
Tarbell has stated that all persons in
terested in the company in any way,
as shareholders, creditors or other
wise, will be affected by the result of
this litigation and has suggested that
: any person interested in any wise
may, upon application, be made a
party to this action, and be heard
upon its final disposition.
The case has aroused much interest,
as II naturally should, and before the
final hearing 1t is expected that many
new parties will be made, attorneys
employed. and the matter fully pre-
sented
Judge Tarbell has sustained the mo-
tion filed by the attorneys for the de-
fendant. L. V. Williams, Fte & Fite,
to quash the indictments returned
against Williams. In sustaining the
motion to quash the indictment for
perjury the court held that the venue
was not properly laid in the indict-
ment nor the guilty knowledge of the
falsity of the oath alleged to have
been made by him averred; other
minor defects were pointed out in this
indictment
