PRESENT COMEDY
Abingdon Cast Entertains Putnam
 People In High School Hall

An Abingdon cast gave a very cred itable presentation of the comedy, Deacon Dubbs," in the high school au- ditorium last Friday evening for the benefit of the school athletic associa- ton. This play, in three acts, had been presented twice before by the same company with great success. There were several other attractions in the city Friday evening, and for this reason the hall was not quite fill ed Those present, however, thorough ly enjoyed the performance. Carl Sharpe as Deacon Dubbs, Clarissa Griggs as Rose Raleigh, the village schoolma am and the heroine of the play, did especially we'll in their roles. Mrs. Roy Geissler in the part of Yen nie Yensen, the Swedish hired girl earned many laughs.
 The complete cast follows: Deacon Dubbs, from Sorghum Center, West Virginia, Carl Sharpe; Amos Cole man. his nephew, Carl Geissler; Raw don Crawley. wolf in sheep's cloth ing. George Lemeux; Major McNutt,

Nash Motors See Shortage
 of Cars for Spring Buying
SAMUEL RoSOFF, LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR, ADVISES MIME DIATE PLACING OF ORDER TO AVOID
 DISAPPOINTMENT

With spring now close at hand, au- tomobile dealers handling cars of standard make are facing a demand that from every indication will eclipse any previous shortage in the history of the automobile industry.
 Practically every spring finds the automobile dealer unable to meet the demand for immediate delivery said F.. H. Mccarthy, general sales manag- CT of the Nash Motors Company. "The Nash retail selling organization. at this time, IS carrying on it's books more unified retail orders for spring de- livery than at any time since this com pany was established. Many of our dealers, having passed through spring shortage periods of the past, antici- pated their requirements this year and have on hand stocks of cars in quan- titles sufficient to carry them partly through the approaching rush season.
Putnam patriot., 1924-04-04

expressed the belief that good business generally would prevail throughout the first half of the year. with favor able indications for the latter half also.
 This conviction is being borne out by reports on many great industries aside from automobile manufacturing Untitled orders on the books of the Steel Corporation as of January 31
 show an increase of 353.090 tons, the piano manufacturing industry is ex- periencing one of the heaviest demands in history. the hide and leather market is emerging from lengthy period of

liquidation. Shoe manufacturers are busy. and tabulation of building per- mits issued in a group of 262 major cities shows the largest January vol tune known.
 Sell Many Cars at Show
 Sales of Nash cars at automobile shows held so far this season through out the country are heavier by wide margin than ever before in the history of the company. Reports received by the factory from distributors and deal CTS at points where shows have been held show in some instances Of POO and 300 per cent in show sales.
 Orders for immediate or spring de- livery taken immediately following shows at all these points are a plain indication of the heavy spring demand that is bound to follow; it looks as though history will repeat again this year and that during the busy period.

Automobile Expenses Drops
Fast on Better Highways
Single Sentence Sermon for High
way Users Is Delivered by Nick
les N. Dimes the Gas Tax Man

"What we don't put into needed
road improvements comes out of our
rigs"
Every automobile and truck owner
in Minnesota pays for roads on which
to run his machine just as surely as
he stands his own car depreciation
and buys his own tires, gasoline and
so forth, explained Nickles N. Dimes,
the gas tax exponent. "There's no
getting away from that fact, che
added, because every dollar used on
Minnesota trunk highways comes
from motor vehicle taxation. So it
ought to be plain that what is not
put into the road must come out of
the rig.
"That's the big reason the state
highway department is urging auto
owners to speed up the highway pro-
gram under a pay-as-you-use policy.
The idea is stated in the gas tax say
ing, pay couple of cents more a
gallon for gasoline and buy fewer
gallons and it might be added buy
fewer tires, make the car last longer
and enjoy greater comfort and con-
venience and save time on the bet
ter roads that will result.
"Any trunk highway user failing

ticularly the steel trade. Increased
activity in several branches of the
textile industry is taken for a hope
full sign of better times.
That the slough of depression is
not as deep as first suspected is re-
vealed in the survey of domestic bus
mess conducted by the Department of
Commerce. Sales of the leading mail
order houses increased materially
during August, steel production was
above the total for the preceding
month, and trade picked up in many
lines. 1t is stated by government ex-
perts that the western farmer will
profit greatly by the increased inn
portation of food products by Euro
pean nations. The increased pur-
chasing power of the farmer is es-
timated at billion dollars. Natur-
ally, this prosperity will be reflected
throughout the country as the money
will be used to replenish stocks, to
support new enterprise and to make
improvements and extensions. Much
significance is attached to the evil
dences of stabilized conditions in the
western states and the Importance of
the European economic recovery
With the citizens prosperous, the
troubles of the government diminish
accordingly. All these factors are
considered by those holding import
ant posts in the Federal Service and
others seeking popular favor at the
polls. .s~.xss

to vote yes for Gas Tax Amendment
No. will be directly opposing his
own gain," added the gas. tax man.
"That vote will decide only whether
the receipts will be used on the high
ways if a gas tax is collected. There
is a strong probability that Mime
sofa like other states, will have a
gas tax anyway, and use of the pro-
ceeds on the roads will mean biggest
profits for the car owners.
Regardless of the referendum re-
suit, the legislature will fix taxes on
cars and trucks. The lawmakers
have full power to make any reason
able changes in the motor vehicle tax
rate and also to levy any reasonable
gasoline tax. Every car and truck
owner should vote yes on the gas
tax amendment simply to make sure
that their taxes go for needed high
way betterments.
"'We pay for good roads whether
we have them or not, concluded the
gas tax man quoting Thomas H. Nc
Donald, United States highway en-
gineer.

A TALK WITH A SAUK CENTRE
MAN
Mr.. Brown Tells Something of In
terest to Sank Centre Folks

There's nothing more convincing
than the statement of someone you
know and have confidence in. That's
why this talk with Mr.. Brown should
be mighty helpful here in Sank Cen
tire.
John M. Brown, says: "Last spring
l had lame back and pains across
my loins. l could hardly get around
to do anything, and couldn't stoop or
lift without sharp, darting pains
catching me through my back. The
kidney secretions were highly colored
and passed irregularly. Three boxes
of Doan's Pills cured the lameness in
my back and corrected the kidney
action.
Over seven years later, Mr.. Brown
added: "Doan's cured me of an at
tack of kidney complaint and I still
use them now and then as proven,
tative."
