To know the strength of anything it must go through
Some thorough form of test There are various ways of
testing the material things of this world We often hear
peope speak of scientific tests acid tests and the like
but so long as one knows that the object question has
been tested all doubt passes away, and become salts
fed There are proofs that they have gone through
the proper tests Fine bridge structures stretching
great bodies Of water not finished until proper
were made and would not have dared to cross them
unless we knew their strength had been tested
Today, the Afro-Amercan Sons & Daughters is the
strongest Fraterna organization for Negroes the whole
Southland The strength of the organization has been
put through the most rigid test 1t has stood times which
made the world doubtful For thirteen years the organi-
cation has paid all valid claims promptly There is ab-

CHAPTER XII.

TT WAS peaceful and safe and COM
Portable on the ship. Other pas
sengers were so engrossed with
their own affairs that If they
knew or guessed who Iris and Roger
were they remained at a well-bred
distance.
Aunt Prue was i'll. She kept to her
stateroom. and Iris felt conscience
stricken every time she saw the deli
cate. pale face. If only she hadn't
persuaded her to come!
But, dear, I'll be all right as soon
as We land, and then think what a
good time we're going to have" Aunt
Prue consoled her. You 60 on deck
and forget this. There's no use of
your having to stay in"
Iris had not seen Dana before they
sailed. After calling twice he had not
tried to reach her again. And in her
heart Iris was relieved that she could
have time to think things out.
The stateroom was filled with flow
ers when she and Aunt Prue came on
board. Most of them were from Dana,
but she found a beautiful bouquet
from Roger, one from Patti and Jim
and lovely ones from Cathie and Hank.
Iris loved the feel of the sway of the
ship and the throbbing of the great
engines below. She remembered her
first trip over, years before. How like
schoolgirl she had been then, anx-
ious about the new life she was to
enter. And now she was going back to
represent the most famous designer in
America
After dinner the second night cut
che and Roger walked the windswept
deck. Iris wore mink coat and felt a
strange exultant feeling at the touch
OF - the soft fur against her chin.
Roger was boyishly eager about every
thing. They leaned against the rail
and watched the moon rise, and it re-
vealed Iris little indulgent smile as
they watched very young couple ear
nestly conversing short distance
from them. How happy they seemed.
Iris drew her eyes guiltily away as
she saw the man lean forward to kiss
the eagerly uplifted lips of the girl.
Roger offered his arm, and they
quietly slipped away unnoticed.
At her stateroom door Roger asked,
How about a game of shuffleboard
tomorrow morning." And Iris laugh
tngly answered, "All right, I see yure
bent on entertaining mel"
And so it seemed he was. They
Joined some of the other passengers at
the swimming pool in the afternoon.
Iris was glad she had accepted the
bathing suit that Patti insisted on.
"Im not accustomed to paying $50
for my swimming suits, Patti she
had protested
I'm buying this suit, Iris. And
insist that it be the best" Patti an
swered. crisply.
But now Iris was glad She felt ex-
liberated from the very first moment
she donned it. Aunt Prue looked at
her bit anxiously. Dear, don't you
think it bit daring?"

laughed If you think this is reveal

Aunt Prue didn't look very con-
vinced. but Iris kissed her and said,

frock. which shall wear tonight"

FState-Owned
Cars Recalled

PHOENIX, June 10-Motor We
hicle division inspectors at Ari-
zona's border stations yesterday
were ordered by Vernon Davis, di-
vision superintendent, to turn back
to the state highway department
the seven state-owned automobiles
which have been at their service
for the conduction Of state bust
ness.
This will reduce to five the num-
ber of state-owned automobiles
used by the motor vehicle division,
Mr.. Davis said, and will save the
state $4,000 to $500 a year.
Instances where it is necessary
for an inspector to apprehend a
motorist who has failed to stop at
a border station for checking pur-
poses are rare, Mr.. Davis said, and
elimination of the cars at the bor-
der stations will not impair eff
ficiency of the division.

CarAuctiont to
Offer Many
Big Values
$4,000 WORTH OF USED CARS
PUT ON BLOCK BY
HOLMBERG

To those who question whether
or not the cars to be sold at the
Holmberg Chevrolet auction Sat-
urday will actually be sold as they
go over the block, you are invit-
ed to come and see for yourself.
They ARE going to be sold.
This will be the fourth such
auction sale this firm has held
during its ten years in the auto
mobile business with Chevrolet.
John NJ. Stewart, local auction
eer, will open the sale at 200
o'clock sharp.
There seems to be a natural &C
emulation Of cars two years old
or older that pile up on used car
lots regardless of the sales efforts
made to move them. While Mil
lard Holmberg feels that the adj
vertisements in The Gazette and a
concentrated drive thru statesmen
does a tremendous amount of
good toward relieving inventories,
he feels it advisable to "clean
house" every two or three years.
1t seems especially advisable to
have the sale now because the
farm outlook is exceptionally good
and everyone is in the buying
mood.
Rather than trying to create a
market when one doesn't exist he
is choosing this time, right while
user car activity is at its height.
This sale will prove a boon to
anyone who wishes to buy a used
car. He has the opportunity to
look the cars over before the sale,
he may have a demonstration in
them and inquire into the terms,
which are figured on the lowest
possible rates.
The enviable reputation which
the Holmberg Chevrolet company
enjoys is your assurance of re-
ceiving the kind of treatment you
want.
The inventory value of these
cars is approximately $4,000. It is
thus easily seen that there is a
lot at stake and large crowd of
buyers is expected.
Another feature that will APP
peal to number of buyers is the
fact that they can buy what they
want ON auction and if they al
ready have a car themselves and
do not want two, they can have
their car run over the block and
can get full value for it to apply
on the purchase of the car they
buy. This is a very fair way and
at the previous auctions several
have done this with very satisfac-
tory results.
Whether or not you are inter-
ested in buying it will prove a
very interesting event. You are
sure to see between $1,000 and
$4,000 worth of cars sold to the
highest bidder. There will be no
by-bidding and you may be sure
the cars WILL BE SOLD.-C. G.

Intensive New
Car Program
Launched

Willard Holmberg, local Chew
role dealer, received word today
from the Chevrolet Motor Divi-
sion of General Motors of a new
car campaign to carry through
the balance of April and all of
May. The local firm is matched
in this new car contest with the
Chevrolet dealer of Madison,
South Dakota.
No prize has been announced
yet, but they expect to hear soon.
You will remember that just re-
Gently this firm collected on a
contest on used cars, being match
ed with Bird Island. That was
the Turkey-Bean contest. Now
we are informed by Willard that
they expect to win again and
when the details arrive you'll no
doubt hear more about it.
When a car with such out
standing features as:
Genuine Knee Action
IS Horsepower Valve in

All-Silent, All-Steel Bodies

you all these features.

"The Car That Is Complete
They do not stress one import
ant feature such as gas mileage,
but all of them: comfort-certain-
ly a highly important thing in
any car-SAFETY-the only low
priced car with steel cross-mem-
bers reinforcing their all steel
Turret Top. Economy-Chevrolet
has been the symbol of saving for
81 years Lot only on gas and oil,
but on replacement parts-70, 900
miles with the same pistons is
not at all unheard of.
Each unit of the car is very
accessible as a result labor
charges when they become neces-
Sary are much lower and do not
require nearly so many extra
special tools.
It is a proven fact that valve
in head motor is designed to give
per cent to IL per cent more gas
economy than another engine of
similar size. It will develop more
power at lower engine speeds
IS horsepower at 5000 revolu-
tons per minute, which means
reduced wear and lower operat-
Jig costs.
Chevrolet electro plated pis-
tons are made of material that
will expand with heat at the
same rate the cylinder walls ex-
pand which means a finer fit at
all times.
Chevrolet does not feel that
they produce the only car worth
having, but they do ieel that they
have incorporated more of the
desirable features into their car
than you can buy in ally other
low priced car.
With ali these powerful selling
advantages combined with this
greatest Used Car Auction, leav-
ing the dealer with the used cars
in the form of working capital,
they will be in an enviable posi-
ton to 60 out AID get plenty of
new car business.
Be sure to see any one of the
statesmen at Holmberg's (where
you can do better) if you're
thinking of new car. You'll be
surprised at what a good deal
you can get.
