The ,Rawlins Public School Board
has ordered Caution to Motorists
signs which will be placed on all the
streets leading to the schools. 1t
is expected that these signs will ar
rive In Rawlins in a very few days
and they will all be posted by the
first OF the year.
This action has been taken by the
school board because of the careless
ness of the automobile drivers on the
streets where the school children
are playing or as the children are
going to school or going to their
homes in groups. In the past -
months four serious accidents have

MY CHRISTMAS TREE
w. H. Currie

Canadian Forests G. Outdoors.
December 1928.
Each year as sure, as Christmas
comes around,
The family send me out to get a tree.
And heretofore my habits always
been
To take the very first that / could
see.
But lately I've been giving it some
thought,
And now 1t seems a senseless thing
to do.
To rob the future of a stately tree,
To furnish pleasure for an hour or
two. -.
See, where those sapling pines out
in the glade,
Straight as a lance are reaching tow
ard the sun.
Now, these will all be fine big trees
some day
If don't end what nature has begun.
But here's a little spruce beneath the
shade
OF this great, husky, moss-clad for
est king.
A slender chance has he to reach his
prime,
Yet for a Christmas tree he's just
the thing!
So I'll take this and HE me home
again.
And leave yon sturdy saplings all in
tact
To grow and read strong columns to
the sky.
Till what 1 see in fancy turns to fact.

LUCK AND WORK
MAKE A WORLD RECORD

Some people believe in luck. So do we.
But 1t has been apparent to US for many
years that the only way we can coax luck
our way is through hard work. 1t was
the result OF strenuous investigation that
we predicted, at the time we decided to
promote Studebaker in Rawlins S, that
S~tudebaker was destined to become the
most popular automobile in America
selling for more than $1,000. We are now
rejoicing over this evidence that luck and
hard work are yet going hand in hand;
Studebaker Sales for the Month of Oct.
Exceeded in Value Those of Any Other
Automobile Manufactured in the World
Except the Ford Motor Company. They
exceeded even Studebaker sales for Oct.
1928, by 68 per cent and Oct, 1922, by
ITO per cent. The Sixty Million Dollar
Studebaker Plants eliminate middle
mems profits, and make possible the
great values represented by the low
prices at which S~tudebaker cars are sold,
n are an assurance that our further
prediction to make Rawlins a Studebaker
town through the added excellence of
sales terms and service of our Institu-
ton is in the daWning of a determined
fact. Luck, dependable inclination and
close application to work in hand has put
our used car department in the enviable
position of the most dependable, trust
worthy, and largest merchandising CEN
ter for used cars in Southern Wyoming,
not only for late models of S~tudebakers
and other standard makes, but especially
a low price center for almost any make
of good used cars.
