Spring’ll Be Here
’fore You Know It
DESPITE conditions which greatly held back the produ
of automobiles throughout the early months of this
nearly twenty thousand discriminating motor car buyers
been made happy and contented by the possession of their
Chandler cars.
-s»
Nothing could more clearly show the regard
in which America holds the Chandler Six, than
the patience with which thousands waited for
weeks and months for their Chandlers. They
waited because they knew what they were waiting
for,—because they know it is worth waiting for.
Some are still waiting, but their cars are com
ing. December production is taking care of many
orders, and January will see the great Chandler
plant on a production basis unprecedented in the
medium priced fine car
Chandler dealers will, we hope, be able to fin
their orders more quickly next year, but when the
first warm days of Spring come, and the cotmtiy
roads call, and everyone decides he wants his new
car at once, there will be some waiting again. _
If you want your new Chandler when you want It,
place your order now. If you want to be sure of get
ting the car of your choice, the greatest of all Sixes
beyond question, drop in and see your Chandler
dealer now, regardless of what the weather may
be. For “Spring’ll be here ’fore you know It.”
All Chandler bodies are mounted on the one standard Chandler chassis, which has made the
name famous. Simple, sturdy and dependable throughout, its features embrace, as for years
past, the really marvelous Chandler motor, solid cast aluminum motor base, annular ball
bearings, silent chain drive for the auxiliary motor shafts, and Bosch magneto ignition.

of these stills which showed that It was
Id operation a short time before the
officers arrived. The other still had
been concealed about 100 yards from
the furnaoe. One was made or two
tubs of about 35 'gallons capacity and
the other was a copper still of about
45 gallons capacity. No one was found

There Is one nuisance in Sanford
that should be removed. We refer to
the blocked condition of the yird along
aide the railroad track when passenger
trains come in from Wilmington and
Greensboro, caused by frelgbt cars be
ing left on the siding whloh Mtallels
the main line. It makes It ver^noon
venient for people getting off and on
trains and as they are crowded In so
□ear the track it makes it dangerous
when trains are moving. It makes a
bad Impression and is talked about all
up and down the road. We upderstand
the matter can be remedied by using
the siding for the main line and put
freight cars on the track cow used
as the main line. Let our people take
the matter up with the railroad officials
and try to have a change made.
The remains of Mr. John Q Swann,

near Swann Station, where the inter
ment waB made, the funeral service
being conducted by Rev. William J.
Gordon, of Spray. Mr. Swann, who
was born and reared near Wilmington,
died at the age of 70 years. For many
years he made his home at the Swann
place near Swann Station and was well
known to some of our readers in that
section. Mr. Swann was never mar
ried. For years he was a colporteur
for the American Bible Society and
was very successful in his work. He
was highly esteemed by all who knew
him.
The sweet potato, wmcn grows to
perfection in the sandy section of Lee
and adjoining counties, Is destined to
become one of the most profitable
crops raised by oar farmers, if there Is
anything in what Carl L. Alsberg,
GhUi of the Chemistry Bureau of the
Agriculture Department, reoently told
the House Agriculture Committee.
He thinks the sweet potato will j^ield
up valuable products io the way of
starch, table syrup and other commo
dities. Fifty barrels of syrup reoently
made from sweet potatoes under gov
ernment supervision was (placed on
sale without advertising that it was
"government made"..and itbrought 10
cents a gallon more than any other
syrump on the market. Sweet potato
growers will be interested In the an
nouncement that Congress may later be
asked to grant special appropriations
for experiments.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
—u
Insist on enuine Ford Parts
The authorized Ford Dealer is jour protection. As each we .handle nothing but the
Genuine Ford parts. They are made from the famous Ford Vanadium Steel and each
part—according to its use—is beat-treated in the way that will give it the longest wearing
qualities. Every part is the same as its duplicate in your Ford car or Ford truck.
That’s just what imitation parts are when they become a part of your Ford car. They
look strong enough, but the metal isn’t there—the strong, durable Vanadium steel that
goes into the Ford chassis and every Ford part Ford parte are specially cast and heat
treated, each according to its use Some require a hard, flint-like wearing surface, otherst
need resiliency, and some need just “toughness ”
Ford metallurgists have been studying these problems for sixteen years and know just
bow each unit should be made to endure a maximum of wear and tear They know tha
best results can be obtained only by the use of special formulas for different parts, and
that honest Ford parts wear from thirty-five to one hundred per cent longer than count
erfeits
We carry complete assortments of genuine Ford parts for both passenger ears and
trucks- And our garage is equipped to give careful, $ prompt Ford service—from minor
adjustments to complete overhauls. Drive in, it's belter to be safe than sorry. Gome to
the Authorised Ford dealer for service.

New Year Party.
Oae of the most enjoyable events
of the holidays, was a New Year
party given by Miss Willa Camp
bell, at her home near Sanford on
New Year’s eve.
After the guests had arrived
several games were layed and home
made candy served. Then each
one was passed a string and at the
end was their future. Much merri
ment was displayed, as each' one
read their fortune.
After this partners were chosen
for a cake and candy contest. Miss
Annie King and Mr. Bailey Gtroce
tied with Miss Klla Bruton and Mr.
f!d. Holt for the prize. After nuts
were served, again partners were
chosen in an interesting way to
toast marshmallowB. When this
was over th^Most interesting event
of the eveni^Aook place. There
were strings placed over the parlor
door hanging from the top on each
side. The girls were asked to take
bold of a string and then the door
was opened. Mi^ch laughter took
place as they tried to dud who had
their string. These partners were
to.go to the school house to ring
out the Old Year and in the New.
After reaching the school house
each guest was asked to make their
new year resolutions and see if they
would be accepted or rejected by
the crowd. Some were accepted
and some were turned down.
Imagine the laughter which took
place when over 50 guests were
assembled making new year reeolu
tions.
As the hand of their watches
pointed to 12, they rushed to the
bell rope to ring in the New Year.
The New Year being in and this
being leap year also, several took
advantage of the factand proposed.
Those Who conld not trust the
boys at their word, had contracts
drawn up and signed.’
At one o’clock, after wishing
everybody a Happy and Prosperous
New Year, the guests departed, de
