For months thousands of Jordan owners
throughout the world had been sending in
proofs and proofs and proofs of Jordan econ
omy and reliability beyond the ordinary.
A year ago, Jordan foresaw the passing
of the big, bulky, ponderous motor car of

found it necessary to choose heavy Car to
attain reliability, was looking for Car in
which reliability was combined with econ
omy and distinction.

Without our knowledge, and with no

GOOD ROAD TO NEWPORT
is ENVY OF LOCAL MEN

Among those who journeyed to New
port last night to help inaugurate
the opening of the Carter county cam
paign We're Perry d. Maxwell, presi-
dent, and James Barron, secretary
of the Ardmore Chamber of Com
merce, and they not only enjoyed the
festivities to the fullest extent but
they fully appreciated the fine high
way that connects the northwestern
part OF the county with Ardmore, the
county seat
Mr.. Barron was most enthusiastic
over the highway, and the manner in
which it is being maintained, Il
wish we had all Of our city streets
in as good condition as this road"
said Mr.. Barron as he finished an
eulogy on good roads in general and
the roads of the second commission
ers' district in particular. "and l be-
lieve it would be a good idea for our
city commissioners to take a trip
over this section of the county if for
no other reason than to make them
feel ashamed of themselves" he con-
cluded.
Judge Thomas Champion stated, be-
tween mouthfuls of barbecued beef,
that he had shuddered at the thought
of reaching the city limits after rid
ing over the county road that leads
from Ardmore to Newport, and ad-
vised that the Chamber Of Commerce
get busy and see if something could
not be done to make certain streets
of Ardmore as good as the country
highways.
Commissioner George Evans merely
grinned when he received congratula-
tions over the work done and extend
ed general invitation to all people
