Thanks, Folks

The fact that sold O9 used May dent the result of luck simply proves conclusive l that every day and intelligent buyers pur chasing good used but they insisting buying them from dealer whose reputation is beyond reproach. Buyers of used rgh-a good used bought
 five hundred dollars value than Lof cheap construction bought the figure At six hundred dollars, hundred dollars eight hundred dol lars, at price, the same comparison holds true Whether you get a good used instead of abused one depends mainly upon the dealer
 Our advice used buyers selec the dealer from
 whom make the purchase rather than try and select ].
 If you get the right dealer he will help you make the right . selection
 In this connection wish call attention to these facts.
 The Drennen Motor Car Co., for many years has tried sell great volume of used but those have sold have proved satisfactory that purchasers have voluntarily recommended this company to their friends. As Cadillac and Buick distributors have been position select used rather than have them forced and have traded them in price that enabled to sell them giving used buyers honest dollar flor dollar value To first choice of used and prices with their real value. Because of these facts is ev dent that: You cant buy better used for less, anywhere.

WOCO PEP KILLS
 KNOCK IN MOTOR
Famous Benzol Blend Is Original Anti Knock
 Motor Fuel

woco Pep, the famous benzol blend motor fuel made and marketed by the Wofford Oil company, is one of Amer ica's first "anti-knock" motor fuels. if not the first one marketed commercial- ly on large scale in this country. In the six years in which it has been sold 1t has been extensively advertised throughout the south as knock killer' and much of it's astounding popularity has been based on this quality.
 Woco Pep is scientific blend of benzol and gasoline. Benzol has been recognized by such authorities as c. F. Kettering, president of the General Motors research laboratories as an "anti-knock" component in motor fuel, but the statement has often been made that the limited supply of benzol will probably prevent it's universal use Cor stopping the knocks in motors.

Baconian Organization Was Formed In

London, Ont, In 1884
 Forty years Is a long life for lit erary society; few have attained that extreme age, says the Toronton Globe. But the Baconian club of London, Ont, I has just celebrated it's fortieth birth day. It was promoted in the year 1884 by three young lawyers, Alexander D. Hardy, George Morehead and c. c. Jarvis. for the purpose of fostering the study of literary and scientific sub jects and the art of public speaking, and has ever since enjoyed a vigorous and useful life. M
 At first, it's members were recruited chiefly from the younger members of the bar, but since then it's membership has included large number of clergy men, physicians, university professors and business men.
 In the 40 years of it's activity it has discussed almost every debatable sub ject, except those connected with re- ligion and party politics, which are rig orously excluded. Yet 1t Is not high brow institution where austere learn ing and dull, wordy essays find a place. 1t is, on the contrary, an assembly of kindred spirits who seek to improve their own minds, as we'll as those of their comrades, by bright, helpful in terchange of ideas and keen construct i've criticism of one another's efforts.
 It is limited to 40 active members who are known as the 40 Immortals of the Baconian club. At it's fortieth an- nual banquet few nights ago, former members of the club travelled from such distant points as Ottawa, Toronto, New York and Brantford to be present at that unique event. s@s
