truly Southern. His drawing of
the church in which the negroes
sought refuge from the flood wat
ers, Mebane says, is exactly like
the church it represents; but it
could be "Piney Grove" or "Twi-
light" across the Roanoke in
Halifax County or any colored
church anywhere in the rural
south.
His painting of the folorn dog
sitting on a door floating down
the swollen river makes the
reader want to get ready warm
bed and bowl of warm food
for the detected looking puppy,
even before Mebane tells you
that this pup-the only real
character in her book-was the
most lovable pet her children
have owned.
And that is a story in itself.
The children have owned dogs,
cats, wild rabbits, chickens, tur-
ties, frogs and alligators. When
asked if feeding alligators could
be fun, the tolerant Mebane said,
cts all in how you look at it,"
Perhaps therein lies the rea-
son for her ability to find ex-
citement on Oconecechee to
manage her household, to attend
the never-ceasing demands of
four healthy children, to parti-
cipate fundamentally in COM
munity affairs and still find time
to write such a delightful story.
When speaking to the Junior
Club soon after the publication
of River Treasure, Mrs. Bur-
gwyn suggested that she might
write another book. Knowing her
to be woman of great talent
and determination, we are look
ing forward to reading her next
story.

The 1949 Ford, which reveals a
radical departure from traditional
Ford styling and engineering, was
made public today by Fred Ken
nedy, Ford Sales & Service, of
Mt Victory.
New standards of beauty, COM
fort, economy and performance
in the 1949 Ford passenger cars
advances them far ahead of others
in the low priced field" Mr..
Kennedy, said. styling of the
new Ford definitely establishes it
as The Car of the Year" "
To develop and produce the
1949 passenger cars alone, Ford
Motor Company has expended
more than 37,4O0,000 in tools,
dies, etc.
The modern design has been
nodded along functional lines, re-
sulting in a long, low, sweeping
silhouette. The grille is distinctive,
the hood massive but shorter and
the body so wide the rear tenders
have been eliminated. There are
clean, unbroken lines from front
| to rear.
Comfort has been one of the
primary detectives in the new
Ford. There is more room in the
Lounge Car" interiors than IN
many cars with much larger over
all dimensions. Front seat widths
have been increased six inches
and the rear seat nearly eight
inches. The body has been moved
five inches forward with the seats
Graded between the aXles for
much smoother ride.
A new type of suspension syS,
tenn -"Hydra-Coil" springs - re-
places the traditional transverse
springs and the front axle. This
system is centered around airplane
type shock absorbers mounted
within low frequence coil springs
In the rear, extra long longitud
inal springs are complemented by
airplane type shock absorbers.
/ There's more leg room in thu
new cars because the size of the
driveshaft tunnel has been de
creased by adoption of the Hotch
kiss drive and the hypoid real
axle. These engineering changes
also minimized the transmission

of road noises into the car.
Engine vibration has been re-
duced by literally floating the
power plant on rubber mounts.
A new heating system available
in the Fords brings year around
comfort to driver and passengers in
the new Fords. Fresh air is scoop
ed into the car through large in
takes just behind the grille.
The system can be used as a
fresh air ventilator, fresh air
heater or as a recirculating heater
by selecting the position of an
easily operated control knob. An
automatic temperature control
also is available Fresh air, plus

Asked about the economy of the
new Ford, Mr.. Kennedy advised:
Economy of operation has been
increased up to 10 per cent for
the new Six-cylinder engine and
the extensively redesigned Va"
Both the V-8 and Six engines
are offered as power plants in all
Ford models. Other engineering
features result in better perfor-
nance and longer engine life.
Improvements in the ignition
system also have contributed to
increased economy and efficiency.

New Faces in Congress
Nicely, After Nearly ; Decades
On Hill, Returning to Senate

on the ground it would have inter-
fered with present research.
Born in Grove, w. Va, in 1874,
Mr.. Nicely served as an infantry
private in the Spanish American
War. Between 1900 and 1911, he
rose from corporal to major in the
West Virginia National Guard.
He practiced law in Fairmont,
w. Va, and as Mayor of that city
from 1908 to 1910, and clerk of the
West Virginia House of Delegates
from 1911 to 1918, initiated his long
political career.
A 32d degree Mason, he also is a
life member of the Elks. And his
political success includes election as
supreme governor of the Loyal Or
der Of Moose a few years ago.

Act opponents. An added factor
was Gov. Dewey's cold-shoulder
treatment of the isolationist Rever-
comb.
Served in 1918.
Mr.. Neely's face appeared in Con-
gress for the first time back in
1918. Since then he has been elect
ed to the House seven times and
is about to launch his fourth term
in the Senate. His previous terms
in the Senate were from 1923-29 and
from 1914.
Just to prove his versatility, he
quit the Senate in 1941 to become
Governor of West Virginia. Never
out of a job, he held the governor
ship after his defeat by Senator
Revercomb and in 1945 bobbed up
in the House again after an absence
of % years.
Once in the House Mr.. Nicely in
troduced probably the shortest reso-
luton on record. The l3-Word bill
urged the House to agree that "A
female member shall be referred to
or addressed as the lady from name
of State).'
Objecting to such salutations on
the House floor as "gentlelady,' y
madame and "Congresswoman, y
he said the term "gentlewoman"
was IAN infelicity and a barbarism,
anachorism lacking in respect and
dignity"
! In 1945 he supported the Recip-
rocal Trade Act, while reporting
that $3.50 constituents in his dis
trict did not share his view. Al
though these people, craftsmen in
the pottery and glassware indus
tries, believed the bill would elimi-
nate their jobs, Mr.. Nicely said he
was for doing away with unreason-
able trade barriers.
Cancer Bill Lost.
He made an eloquent plea IN 1946
for his cancer research bill, which
would have authorized 100000, 900
for the mobilization of scientists to
fight the disease. Although the
committee reported it favorably, the
House refused to consider the bill
