Big Business Ahead
For Durant Automobiles

F. w. Honensee, president and
general manager of Durant Motor
Co., of New York, is being flooded
with kilograms of congratulation this
week over what is looked upon in
trade circles as an extraordinary &C
complshment. Last week the COM
rany's plant at Long Island City
reached a production of 100 automo-
biles day.
This plant has been in operation
less than six months and the install
lation of machinery for quantity pro-
Guction was completed less than one
months ago.
Durant Motors, Inc, the parent
company announces seventy million
dollars worth of business booked for
delivery before August 81 next, near
ly one-half of which must be provid-
ed thru the production of the Long
Island plant.

Delco-Light Products
In Worcester Co.
Harry B. Shaw Selected Dealer In
This unty,-Will Have Head
quarters In Pocomoke.

Announcement was made a few
days ago that Harry B. Shaw, had
been selected dealer for handling Del
co-Light products in Worcester coun-
ty. He will have his headquarters in
Pocomoke City, and no doubt, will
shortly be telling host of old friends
and new ones here about the wonders
of the Delco-Light system.
Mr.. Shaw is an enthusiastic be-
lever in the future of electricity for
lighting farm homes and other places
beyond the reach of central power
stations and for furnishing power and
heat to take the drudgery out of the
daily tasks of the farmer and the far
mer's family. He thinks the day is
not far distant when electricity will
be in as common use in the homes of
the farmers, in country stores, chur-
! ches, and schools as it is today in the
cities.
This progress is going to be due, in
great measure, he says to the devel-
cpment of Delco-Light, the individ-
ual electric light and power plant
manufactured by the Delco-L Light
Company.
We have been told by Mr.. Shaw
that more than one hundred and sew
enty thousand of these lighting sys-
TENS have been purchased by farmers
also for use in stores, churches,
schools and summer homes, camps
and motor boats, and the like land
that everywhere by those who have
been compelled to live beyond reach
of electric comfort but who now see
way to realize the joys and bene-
fits of reliable electric service.
Mr.. Shaw says that the two coun-
Ties below US, (Accomac and North
ampton) now have more than nine
hundred users. and the other counties
in Maryland and Virginia as we'll as
the other states, are also eagerly
availing themselves of the electric
service afforded by Delco-Light land
he is quite sure that this county is
not going to be behind them in this
regard.
He will maintain his headquarters
in Pocomoke City. His friends and
business associates will testify that
he is fully competent to discuss with
anyone desiring electric service the
matter of their electrical needs and
requirements and we can forsee, in
Worcester county, possibilities for a
considerable lighting up lof farm
homes and considerable relief from
burdens of the farm household thru
the agency of this valuable farm ap-
pliance.

Ford Dealers VIII
Sell Lincoln Cars

According to latest advices from
Detroit every Ford dealer will also
be Lincoln dealer. To make this
possible, 81 metropolitan districts
have been created. covering all part,
of the United States, with the head
quarters of each in some large city.
In each of these there is an accredited
Lincoln distributor under whom the
Ford dealers will operate. The ques-
ton Of carrying cars in stock is left
entirely with the individual Ford
dealers.

Advertising At $S.4O An Inch

On that memorable excur-
sion of the Vermont Press Asso
citation to Boston recently,
the hearts of the
publishers were rejoiced to
learn that Filene has such an
opinion of the value of adver-
Using as to devote 5 per cent of
the sales Of his great emporium
to that purpose. Think of it, 5
per cent! When the country
merchant is too apt to believe
that one half Of one per cent is
so far beyond a sober, safe and
sane expenditure as practically
to constitute a reckless orgy of
extravaganza. More would be
merely throwing money away.
Two per cent of the five Filene
gives to newspaper publicity
and against the other three per
cent he charges his Gisp ay win
dow space, the electricity used
in the windows and the ex-
pense connected with trimming
them. The Boston Post, whose
plant was also visited by the
press excursionists, has an adj
vertising rate of 60 cents a line
and it takes Ia lines to make
an inch of space. Fancy S8.40
an inch TO advertising when a
transient rate of so cents an
inch throws the countryman's
hands into the air as though he
were being held up by an I'M
masked bandit. The Boston
American will run a page once
for the trifie of S1340. "But
consider the circulation those
city papers have, will be the
argument Immediately raised.
Certainly; consider it. The val
ue of circulation depends upon
its location with respect to the
advertiser and, whether it is
comparatively great or compa-
ratively small, it is of no use to
him unless it is among the peo-
pie he wants to reach. If the
country paper covers the terri
tory from which the advertiser
draws trade with the thorough
ness of the more pretentious
sheets through which the city
merchants appeal to a far wild
err trade area, it is entitled to
equally good remuneration for
the service it renders after the
difference in the cost of produ-
cling the papers is taken into
account. Springfield Report

His consistent success led other

To his specifications.
Twenty years Of road and track
vtrtories-with a steady and increas-

convinced Barney Oldfeld that
nese speed tests pointed the way to
a better tire for everyday use.
The enthusiastic reception Of Old

was right. Scores Of the most

LIFE AND CHARACTER
READING
nnnnrlhn a


People born on this date are very
blunt and cause much unnecessary
suffering to others, and they must
not excuse themselves because of the
truth OF their words. They should
learn to be gentle in speech. and to
give out the truth with discrimina-
ton.
The governing sign which is re-
sponsible for this bad manner is
sagittarius, the Archer. and the last
sign Of the fire triplicity. The birth
stone, which should. if possible be
worn always. IS a turquoise.
These people WHO suffer from
weakness OF the lungs. rheumatism
and stomach trouble should know
that all these ailments and every
other known to man can be entirely
dominated forever cast out, by those
who realize that mind is the master
and body the servant Of mind.
