Stresses Atomic Work
Senator Mcmahon is figured by
some observers as likely to win
reelection while the other State
wide Democratic candidates in
Connecticut lose. This would
mean that he would have to run
markedly ahead of the Democratic
ticket. Senator Mcmahon un-
doubtedly, by his work on atomic
energy, and the headlines that
has gained him, built up some
support among independents and
Republicans, which will bring him
votes. On the other hand, he hac

tress or flying under ideal con-

greeting that at the source of
the light was an emergency
landing field, boundary lighted

caretaker in a neat little cot

would welcome you like the

If you were low on gas, he'd

next airport. II it were engine

that one could be flown out or

the caretaker couldn't put you

farmhouse. And he'd help you

Mt. Airy Man Has Typical
Horatio AL ger History

From one of our advertising
agencies we received typical
Horatio Alger tale one that is
hard to match in these days of
gimme" we are pleased to
pass on to you the story of man
who, though his place of business
is in Mt. Airy, is a prominent
resident of Montgomery County.
In the fall of 1917, H. Deets
Warfeld was working as u pick
and shovel employee of the State
Roads Commission along the high
way when he was approached by a
representative of the Chevrolet1Mo-
tor Division who asked rhom to rec
omend several persondin the vicin-
ity for taking over what was then
the E. B. Cue Chevrolet dealer
ship in Damascus. Mr.. Warfield
recommended number of friends.
Several weeks later the representa-
tive returned and said you're the
man we want" 1t seems that each
person who had been recommended
told the factory representative
that Mr.. Warfeld would be the
ideal man. Mr.. Warfield was adj
vised that if he could raise a hun
dred dollar deposit, and enough
money to buy one car, the dealer
ship was his.
Having only fifty dollars cash,
the native Montgomerian borrowed
an additional fifty from his neigh
borhood grocer, H. w. Monkey, and
secured a loan from a friend who
promised to buy the first car. Mr..
Warfeld still has that first car, a
1917 Chevrolet touring car, as a
memento.
Mr.. Warfield, who had started
out in the automotive field as
Service Manager for E. B. Cue,
took over Mr.. Cues franchise in
1917 and operated the leadership
in Damascus from that year until
1880, when he moved his dealer
ship into a new one-story cement
block building with brick front in
Mt. Airy.
The present structure occupies
an area of more than 10000 square
feet. Construction of a new wing
which will house Mr.. Warield' S
farm equipment business, is now
under way. This will give him an
additional 4,400 square feet, and is
expected to be completed in May.

porated two years ago are H. Deets
