WHERE TIME HAS NO POWER
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

Time has no power over the heart
Keeping young with the passing
of years.
Time cannot corrode it in any part,
Never fill it with needless fears.
Untouched by the SHOWS of winter,
Eternal springtime is there,
And the fragrance of all the morn
ing's glow
Still fingers everywhere.
The heart in old age keeps the glory
of youth;
1t will never, no never decay.
No night ever enters its portals,
To scatter the brightness of day.
Time has no power over the heart /;
Forever young it will always be;
Even when shadows are frightening,
And we cross the narrow sea.
Home at last that beautiful city,
Where time is not counted by
years.
To be with our loved ones forever,
And there shall be no more tears.

According to a chart which has
just been prepared by Mr.. Rice, eggs
tend to deteriorate very rapidly
above 70 degrees and fertile eggs
will start to terminate at 50 degrees.
On the other hand, eggs will freeze
at % degrees, hence the most fav-
orable cold storage temperature is
between 40 and 80 degrees.

AS the normal body temperature
of the domestic fowl is approximate

gather eggs regularly, at least twice
day, and cool them promptly to be-
low 65 degrees. it is emphasized by
Mr.. Rice. Prompt and frequent
gathering means cleaner eggs and
prevents the possibilities of deteriora-
ton in hot weather and freezing in
cold weather.

EAR-SPLITTING AUTO HORNS
DENOJTNCED

Ear splitting, nerve-shattering de-
vices masquerading as automobile
horns" are denounced by Albert E.
Buckley, Manager of the Keystone
Automobile Club of Maryland, in a
statement calling upon police to take
action toward abating this newest
and most obnoxious of highway
nuisances."
Mr.. Buckley's reference is to the
adoption by motorists of horns SINH

buses used these fearful contriv-
ances,' he said, "but now that drivers
of pleasure cars-for unfathomable
reasons-have added such horns to
their equipment the situation is one
that demands action by the author
tiles. There never was any excuse
for this equipment on buses, except
that it blasted a right-of-way for
the speeding juggernauts. On the
whole, bus operators used their
horns sparingly, if at all in cities,
thereby minimizing the nuisance.
Now, however, playboys can see
nothing amiss in blasting other cars
and pedestrians out of their way in
cities and towns thus focusing at
tention on the misuse of an instru-
ment originally designed to prevent
highway casualties.

provided that in cities, towns and
villages loud sounding signaling de-
vices shall not be used during the
period from one hour after sunset
to one hour before sunrise, unless
absolutely necessary to avoid acct
dents.

WHEN LOVE TAKES UP THE
HARP OF LIFE
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

When love takes up the Harp of Life,
To play upon it's strings,
The harmony is beautiful,
The soul in rapture sings.
There's a sunrise touch of glory,
Gods redeeming grace,
Inspired by lofty purpose true,
Reflected in the face.
Romantic splendor over all
Commonplace things of life;
With music coming from the skies,
Celestial Paradise.
Our feet shall stand within thy
gates,
Oh Jerusalem, so fair;
Peace be within thy jasper walls,
Prosperity is there.
When love takes up the Harp of Life,
There is melody in the soul.
We catch the strains of music,
From the land where surges cease
to roll.

IMPROVEMENT IN USED CAR
STATUS

One of the outstanding changes
that has made itself felt in the auto
mobile business in the past decade is
the tremendous improvement in the
status of the used car in the public
mind. w. E. Holler, vice president
and general sales manager of the
/ Chevrolet Motor Co., called attention
to this fact in an interview ON the
eve of the 10th anniversary of the
adoption of Chevrolet's Guaranteed
OK Red Tag" The Guaranteed OK
Red Tag" is now nationally famous
as one of the earliest steps taken by
any manufactures toward eliminat-
ing the element of chance from the
purchase of a used car.
mo one who recalls the doubtful
esteem in which used cars in general
were held even as recently as 10
years ago will care to dispute the
statement that a big advance has
been made" said Mr. Holler. "This
advance can be attributed to the
dawn of realization, on both the
dealers and the manufacturers
parts, that a successful future de-
pended on eliminating unethical
practices which had given the used
car business highly doubtful repu-
tation.
Leading motor car dealers were
quick to see these points and set
about to raise the standards of their
used car operations. Thumbing
through an old Saturday Evening
Post-for April IS, 1926 recent
ly came across the confessions of an
old-time used car dealer, who en-
titled his article Looks and Runs
Like New This dealer admitted
some shady tricks, but came eventu-
ally to a conclusion which he ex-
pressed like this: L still sell used
cars, but l operate now on almost a
golden rule basis. And so that no
one will accuse me of being a hypo-
critic, I'm going to admit that / do
this not because of any sentimental
feeling for my fellow man, but
through plain selfishness. I find it
a more profitable, more pleasant,
and less troublesome way to do bust
ness
"That last sentence sums up the
whole situation. Business must be
run for profit, and an honest used
car policy is more profitable than the
other. kind. 1t holds the custom
er's business. The buyer comes to
know that he can depend upon the
dealers word, because the dealer
wants to stay in business and recog-
nizes that his only chance of doing
so lies in constantly giving owner
satisfaction.
Under the Guaranteed OK Tag"
plan the dealer is provided with a
supply of large red tags, each bear
ing list of the various mechanical
features of the car, and, opposite the
name of each feature, space for
the insertion of a check mark after
the reconditioning and inspection of
that part, preparatory to offering the
car for sale. Since the tag can not
be affixed to the car until every
feature listed has been checked and
found in proper shape to give owner
satisfaction, the presence of the tag
constitutes an assurance to the buyer
that his purchase is an investment in
dependable transportation. Further,
since the dealer is familiar with the
condition of the car, in full detail, he
is in a position to sell it with conf
dence of it's giving owner satisfac-
ton.
