Jonathan M. Foltz became q sea-
going surgeon In the United States
navy while Andrew Jackson was
president, and stuck to 1t until the
administration of President u. s.
Grant, retiring. finally, as surgeon
general of the navy; and during his
career he had a great many adven-
lures which are described in Sur
geon of the Seas" book made up
from DIR Foltz's notes by his son,
Charles S. Foltz.
This is one of those books
which, making no pretense to 1T
erary merit, recapture the essence
of a bygone era and hold a pc
culiar, pungent interest for read
ers who like to poke around
among the relics of olden times.
DR. Foltz first went to sea on
a sailing vessel, which went on a
three-year cruise to the East IN
dies. there to chastise a piratical
rajah who had looted trading
ship from Salem. Mass.
Then he had an eventful tour OF
duty in South America, followed
by action in the Mexican War and
leading. at last. to service In the
Civil War.
In this conflict he was Farra-
CUTS fleet surgeon, serving most
of the time on the historic steam
frigate Hartford: and his account
OF the capture Of New Orleans and
OF the subsequent naval actions on
the Mississippi In AZ thrilling as
anything YOU would care to read.
Following the Civil War he went
10 Europe with Farragut on the
iatter's friumphai tour; and when

Come chime q song with me
For our own green isle,
For bright and fair TO see,
In our own green isle,
And down from times OF old
As the ages OH have rolled,
There were true hearts brave and
, bold,
X In our own green Isle.
To many lands light,
Was our own green isle,
For lcarning's lamp shown bright,
In GU rown green isle,
And filled with God-like powers,
Saint and sage went from the
bowers,
And the abbeys and the towers, .
Of our own green isle.
And when despoiIing foes,
Sought our own green isle,
Our fathers, brave arose,
In our own green Isle,
On valley, hill and plain,
Fought and blcd and fought
again,
For they'd brook no foreign chain,
In our own green Isle.
And when unl,oly night,
In our own green isle,
Tramplcd justice truth and right,
In our own green Isle,
Still quick to do and dare,
We're the. gallant sons DER there,
For they never knew despair
In our own green Isle.
Then let us all be true,
To our own green isle,
Bear our parts as men should do,
For our own green isle,
And ours the bliss shall be,
In the coming years to see,
Peace and Joy and liberty,
In our own green Isle.

GAIN in CHEVROLET SALES

A gain of 1877 per cent in
the first six months of this
year over the same period of
1881 in the sale of fleets of cars
and trucks for commercial use,
was reported by HI. J. Klingler,
vice president a n general
sales manager of the Chevro-
let Motor Company.
The period was the largest
in feet business ever enjoyed
by this company, and fleet
sales for the first half of this
year were greater than for the
full year of 1929, Mr.. Klingler
said.
Prominent among the list of
purchasers were the United
States Government, states and
municipalities, and large pack
ing, tire, utility, taxi, and
drive-yourself mpani e S.
Such organizations keep a
strict record of cost of MAIN
tenance and operation of their
equipment, and replace it as
soon as the mileage expense of
the old cars and trucks exceeds
that of new vehicles.
Much of the equipment now
being replaced was purchased
in the boom years of 1928 and
1929, and because of the hard
service it undergoes III COM
mercial usage, it has now
reached the age of obsoles-
cence, according to Mr.. King
Ter. He also pointed out that
Chevrolet, due to the operat-
ing economy and durability of
its product, is constantly get
ting an increasing proportion
of total available fleet business.
In the first six months of
this year the Government pur-
chased more than 1000 Chev-
rolet skies with an aggregate
value of $750,000 for use in the

900 others were sold to states

In the period, dealers stocks

Unless you do get SIX, one of two things is

You can't get away
from the fact that
A SIX IS MORE
ECONOMICAL

DILL It's so simple in design that adjustments
and servicing can be done easily, quickly,
economically Because it's smoothness is built
in-the body, chassis and engine are spared the
repair costs that result from constant, inherent
vibration
STILL GOOD after $4,000 MILES
And the Chevrolet Six stays young for
10000, $4,000, 10000 miles and morel Long
past the point when owners might expect signs
of wear, Chevrolet carries on-smoothly
dependably, economically
Moreover it has every modern feature you're
entitled to: Free Wheeling, for example; no car
is up-to-date without it. And genuine Syncro-
Mesh as originated by General Motors-not an
imitation. And big, luxurious, Fisher bodies,
like those on costly cars. And four springs
mounted lengthwse to the Frame
Remember, that you can switch to 1892
Chevrolet for very little money. Chevrolet's
new reduced prices are so low, and G. M A. C's
terms are so easy, you'll probably find it more
economical to buy new Chevrolet Six than to
worry along with the old car any longer
