Lower Prices
on Nash Cars
Effective July 2

Nash prices will be reduced, effective
July2.
This conforms to our statement made
last October that Nash priceswouldbe
maintained until at least July l, 1921.
The reasons were plain. Until manu-
featuring costs were lower we could
not cut price without cutting value, as
Nash prices were not inflated.
We pointed out then that while the av-
erage rise in the price of motor cars
for four-year period had been rs per
cent, the price of Nash cars had been
raised but 81 per cent.
This 81 per cent included the addition
of cord tires as standard equipment
and many other additions and refine
ments which added materially to the
value of Nash cars.
So we re-affirmed our fixed intention
c. rigidly uphOlding the high quality
of Nash cars.
Vernon County censor. [volume] (Viroqua, Wis.) 1865-1955, 1921-06-29

Since then every effort of the Nash
organization has been conferred on eff
fecting sound manufacturing econo-
mics.
New labor saving devices were added
and production practice SO perfect
that every process of Nash manufac-
ture is mOc.ei of efficiency and econ
Omy.
The savings have been substantial.
And they demonstrate as nothing else
could demonstrate the remarkable
Nash ability to produce fine cars at
the lowest possible cost.
Even while working production costs
downward we were improving Nash
cars still further.
Now we can announce for July 2
greater Nash value than ever at re-
duced purchase price.
At the new prices the leadership of
Nash cars is even more emphatically
apparent.

GILEAD, HUNTERS PARADISE.
Four Bucks Secured There on the First
Day.

Bethel, Nov. s.. Conditions favored
the hunters on the first day OF the desr
season yesterday. As day dawned, snow
was falling fast and little later il
ceased, leaving two inches on the
ground in many places. Without doubt
the herds Of deer in this part Of the
state suffered severely.
The Gilead district as the northern
part of the town is called, where many
hunters camped the whole season a
year ago with only one successful
hunter among them, proved hunters
paradise yesterday, four bucks being
carried out before sundown, among
them giant animal
The hunters in that section mostly
are from parts of Orange county, where
game is not so plentiful Guy Merrill of
this village is said to have secured a
good one in Gilead. Barnard is another
rich area for hunters. One of the Lewis
brothers in that town got l25-pound
buck, while much larger animal,
weighing 204 pounds, with l5-point
antlers, was captured there by j. Ellis
Davis Of Royalton, and his brother-in-
law, Charles II. Pondcxter OF this viii
lage, shot a nice one in the Perkins
Ward district in Barnard. There were
rumors Of many other successful hunt
ers in this immediate neighborhood last
evening, the general impression being
that venison will be abundant for the
next month or two.

BANDITS WON
MAIL BATTLE
After Four Train En-
ployes Had Been Wound
ed-Robbers Fled
CARRYING OFF
TWO MAIL SACKS
Passengers Engaged in
Pistol Fight Near
Paxton, Ill.

Paxton, H., Noy. Hundreds OF
men in posses were searching early to-
day for ten bandits who last night
held up the New Orleans Limited, on
| the Illinois Central railroad two miles
! south of here, wounded fom train em-
ployes, stole two pouches Of registered
mail and escaped after setting fire to
the mail car.
| No trace Of the robbers had been
found early to-day. the only aid in
the search being statement by mem
bers Of the train crew that they head
ed west in two automobiles. Squads
Of Chicago police guarded all roads en-
tering that city and the alarm was
telephoned to all central Illinois towns.
The passengers were molested in
only one instance, X. Fl knowlton Of
Freeport, H., getting three bullet holes
in his coat when he and three COM
panions went up to the mail car and
fired on the bandits as the latter were
fighting the engine crew and two mail
clerks, barricaded in the mail car. Ar
thur Moon, Pullman porter. was shot
in the chest and groin as he stood in
the vestibule of smoker. Fireman
Harry Bangs was wounded in the
shoulder. Thomas Baker. a mail clerk,
was shot in the hind and shonlder,
and Ben Bodinette, another clerk, was
clubbed over the head with revolver.
Two os the robbers boarded the train
at some point between Chicago and
Paxton and covered the engine crew
with their guns as the train was pass
ing through here, according TO the re-
port of Division Superintendent J. w.
Heyron.
They ordered the trainmen to pro-
ceed to a small bridge over a stream
two miles further south, where the
train was stopped. After the crew had
been ordered TO break the train, the
engineer and flremen were forced TO
pull the mail and baggage ears farther
up the tracks, leaving the other nine
coaches on the other side of the stream
to prevent interfeTene> by passengers.
Eight other men appeared from su
tomobiles and begra the assault on the
mail car On a threat of shooting the
engineer and fremen if the mail car
was not opened, the robbers forced
the mail clerks to open the door but
when the engineer and firemen had
ilambered inside the door was
slammed shut.
Several charges OF dynamite and fir'
ing from revolyers and shot guns final
ly forced the door in and a hand TO
hand battle ensued which ended only
when the robbers had thrown two
bombs into the car and fire brand
which smoked out the four men fnside
When the elerks came out with the
sacks containing registered mail TO
save themselves from being burned,
the bandits jumped into their machines
and left
The train crew hooked up the train
again without the mail ear and pro-
ceeded to Champagne. where the in
iured were sent TO a hospital.
