CHEVROLET CAR FINISH
Richness and Lustre Carefully TAX.
en- Care Of at Factory

The greatest depth, richness and
lustre provided by pyroxiline finish,
plus its durability and ease of re-
touching without refinishing the
whole car, are the reasons advanc-
ed by c. E. Wetherald, vice presi-
dent and general manufacturing
manager of the Chevrolet Motor
Company, for Chevrolet's adher-
ence to that type of finish. 'The
processes used by Fisher in finish
ing the bodies for Chevrolets have
required years to develop" said
Mr.. Wetherald. "They start with
the preparation of the metal by
the removal of all grease, and
other foreign substances, to insure
adhesion of the finish. On this
clean surface, successive coats of
red oxide primer and surfacer are
applied, the whole body then being
rubbed down to a good surface
with wet sandpaper, of grade
that will leave no scratches. After
inspection, the body is given a
double coat of ground color, follow
ed by repeated double coats of
lacquer in the final color. Thorough
polishing of the lacquer completes
the job. This method assures
finish that is not only free from
'pockmarks or orange peel effect,
but rich, deep and lustrous-a fin
ish suggestive of the quality that
goes right through the car. Furth-
er, lacquer finish lends itself to
easy, inexpensive touch-up, making
it unnecessary to refinish whole car

Gently received silver medals, each
with a cash award Of $3.50, from the
national committee of award of the
Theodore N. Vail Memorial Fund,
which provides for the recognition
Of acts of noteworthy public service
on the part of telephone employees.
The recipients of these medals are
Miss Mamie IneZ Pitts, operator Of

Miss, and Mrs. Ruby G. Bahr, night
operator of the Community Tele-
phone Company Of Wisconsin at
Fairchild, Wis.
She Carried On Alone During a
Tornado
Shortly after eight o'clock on the
night of March II, 1885, when a Sc
we're electrical storm began, Miss
Pitts was on duty alone in the tele-
phone exchange located on the Sec
ond floor of a two-story building.
Anticipating interruption to the To-
cal electric light service, which later
occurred, she secured and lighted
the emergency electric lantern, then
closed the windows and doors. Hear
ing the crash of falling trees and
houses on the far side of the town,
she returned to the switchboard to
handle the expected heavy volume
of traffic. The tornado, reaching We
locity of sixty miles per hour, struck
the building, and tore OF the brick
coping and section Of the roof. Part
of the roof, the ceiling, bricks and
other debris crashed to the floor
within five feet Of where Miss Pitts
was seated.
Despite the danger of further col
lapse of the roof, she remained on
duty throughout the night, render
ing material assistance to officials
and citizens in locating doctors, rel
atiVes and relief authorities. To pro-

Silver Lake Camp

Through the Salvation Army, As
st. Paul mothers and children spent
a few days at their camp at Sill
yer Lake, MINI. This group is re-
cruited each year through the eff
forts of the Urban League of st.
Paul, under the direction of Mrs.
Birdie High, office secretary.
On last Thursday evening group
composed of Mrs. Mary Rogers,
Mrs. Lola Edwards, Mrs. Edith
Williams, president of the Auxili-
airy, and Mrs. Birdie High were in
attendance at the program given
on that evening. The WPA band,
under the direction of Mr.. Carter,
rendered several musical numbers;
there were also solos, duets, and
several acrobatic stunts rendered
by the children.
Mrs. Laurienne Tabor was in
charge of the group at the camp.
These people were transported to
and from the camp by pubhc-spir-
tied citizens who kindly donated
the use of their cars, for which the
Urban League is quite grateful.

her cot and a roll Of oil cloth Sc.
cured from outside, with the result
that although the floor was covered
with water, the equipment was only
slightly damaged. AS there was total
failure of all long distance lines pass
ing through Pontotoc, she sent a re-
port of the storm damage to the
Plant Chief at Tupelo by people driV-
ing through, which information ma
terially expedited the completion of
repairs to the lines.
She Helped Catch a Murderer
About four o'clock on the morning
of August 81, 1895, while on duty,
Mrs. Bahr heard the sound of gun
fire. Hurrying to the door, she saw
an automobile occupied by a man
and a woman travelling at high
speed in the direction of Black River
Falls. Anticipating that the persons
in the machine might have been
connected with the shooting, she
noted the first three digits of the
license number and the general
characteristics Of the car.
Returning to the switchboard, she
received a report that a filling sta
ton attendant had been shot and
killed. She promptly notified the
sheriff at Black River Falls, twenty
two miles away, giving complete in
formation and advising that the car
was evidently short of gasoline. She
next called police authorities at
nearby points in all directions and
also operators at exchanges along all
routes. AS a result of her accurate
observations and prompt action, the
fleeing criminal was quickly located
and identified when he drove into
service station at Black River Falls.
He attempted to escape, was shot
and wounded but finally captured
and convicted of murder.
