NEW FORDS TO GO ON DISPLAY HERE First Showing Will Be Staged by Elkin Motors Tomor row and Saturday MERCURY 8 ANNOUNCED The finest Ford cars in the 35 years of the company's history will •be given their first public showing tomorrow (Friday, Nov. 4), and Saturday at the show rooms of Elkin Motors, Inc., local Ford dealers, and In dealerships throughout the country. These new Ford V-B's are individually styled, and of compelling beauty. They have hydraulic brakes. Available also will be pictures and complete information con cerning the new Ford-made car, the Mercury 8, which fills a place in the Ford-Lincoln line be tween the DeLuxe Ford V-8 and the Lincoln Zephyr. The Mercury 8 will be on display at a date in the immediate future. Introduction of the new Fords climaxes a year of activity which saw the company embark on its current plant expansion program, bring out its entirely new Mer cury 8, and establish the Lincoln- Zephyr still more firmly as the acknowledged style leader in the automobile industry. The DeLuxe Ford V-8. with wholly new streamlines, has a distinctive appearance of its own. At the same time, both it and the Ford V-8 share a family likeness with the Lincoln-Zephyr and the new Mercury 8. The DeLuxe has a deep hood with long lines unbroken by louvres, low radiator grille in bright metal, and wide-spaced headlamps set into the fenders. The words Ford DeLuxe, in script letters of chrome, are divided at the front of the hood. The hood handle is concealed in a vertical extension of the radiator orna ment. The 1939 DeLuxe is powered by an 85 horsepower V-8 engine of even more rugged construction than the 5,000,000 already in use. The Ford V-8 is offered with the same engine as the DeLuxe or with the economy 60 horsepower V-8 engine. All Ford cars are now equipped with hydraulic brakes. Pedal ac tion is exceptionally easy, and the brake shoes work in 12-inch cast iron drums with a total of 162 square inches of braking lin ing for quick stopping and long life. Where Is Atoms? "Papa, where is Atoms?" "Atoms? I don't know, my boy. You mean Athens, prob ably." • "No; I mean Atoms—the place where everything is blown .to."

Doctor (returning from vaca tion) : "Perhaps not; but going fishing seems to strengthen the imagination." oc ifie first ■ any wfi ere// BB^^^^QQS99 ITMWKyffli^ ...
