According to Webster, one of the impor-
tant meanings of the word proud is this:
worthy of admiratio deserving
praise"
That definition fits the 1853 Pontiac like
glove. Pontiac's distinctive Silver
Streak beautyis certainly worthy of admi-
ration-and gets plenty of it everywhere.
And when you sit behind the wheel and
feel the effortless surge from Pontiac's
famous power plant you'll know that
you're driving a mighty proud performer.

City's Garbage
Problem Is Solved

The Mayor and Council, at a spec
iaI meeting held last Thursday af-
ternoon, voted unanimously to enter
into a contract with the Frazer
Products Company for the installa-
ton of a Frazer-Eweson Composing
Process Plant which, when in opera
ton, will convert the city's garbage
into highly effective fertilizer that
can be sold at a handsome profit. 1t
is expected that the plant will be in
operation here in about four months.
AS explained in last weeks issue,
the proposed plant will convert gar
bage into what is known as Com
post, a very effective fertilizer that
can be readily sold for from $4,000
to $4,000 per ton.
There are two of these composing
process plants already in operation
and both of them are highly success
full.
The new plant will be housed in
an available building at the present
City Sewerage Plant and the entire
cost will probably not exceed $780,
000 1t is expected that the sale of
the fertilizer by the city will not on
ly amortize the cost of the plant in a
few years, but will eventually re-
suit in considerable added yearly
revenue to the City
The decision to go ahead with the
project was arrived at after a
lengthy discussion with j w. Frazer,
vice chairman of the Board of Di-
rectors of the Kaiser-Frazer Com
pany and head of the Frazer Prod
ucts Company, and Eric Eweson, a
Swedish chemist who developed the
Compost system.
The new plant will not only pro-
vide modern and profitable system
of disposing of garbage, but will al
so put an end to the troubles of the
residents of Chewsville, who for
years have complained of the odo1
caused by the feeding of garbage to
the hogs at farm owned in Chews-
vile by Mr.. Grimm, who has the con-
tract for the garbage collection in
Hagerstown.
