They got behind the
wheel f ^ got the facts
and bought Buicks
'The new Buick out
performs any car I
have ever driven.”
Mr. W. H. K., Shorewood, Wis.
(name upon request)
This enthusiastic comment merely ^pifies that
of thousands who have turned to buick after
making their own exacting tests.
Be sure to drive a Buick before buying any car.
The more careful your comparisons, the more
inevitably will they lead you to Buick!
The liberal G. M. A. C. Time Payment Plan makes
it easy for you to own a Buick.

bes tliut made up a health week cele
bration in Austin, Texas, were given

tin plan may serve as a model for
other cities of the same sl«e.
A'health piirnde was arranned for
the first day. All civic orKuniKnthms

Clubs Pound Big Help
in Forming Libraries
By forming county clubs, farm wom
en in hundreds of rural centers are
providing organized support for li
braries. In many cases, they begin
with the nucleus of a reading room
located iif the village or town which
serves as their shopping center, which
eventually grows into a fully equipped
library, either through their own ef
forts and state aid, or through the
benefactions of public-spirited citizens
of wealth.
In an increasingly large number of
instances, the work of libraries al
ready established has been expanded
to conveniently serve a county by the
establishment of branches located in
Che rural schools.
Even where the aid of state library
commissions is not available. It is pos
sible for an energetic organization of
farm women to obtain other assist
ance in launching such a movement,
a ^'arm .Toumal writer points out.
“The American Library association,
which is always ready to help get li
brary service started, estimates that
a county library system, with branches
in the villages and schools, can be es
tablished for .$l a year for each per
son served, or less than the cost of a
single book.” she says.
Build for Appearanc*
The provision of shelter is the
builder's job and many developers are
performing a great purpose by the
erection and sale of sheltering homes
for families with small purses. Yet
there should be something more In
a community of homes than mere shel
ter from the elements and InterlSV
comfort.
Everyone recognizes that there Is
something wrong with communities
created "quantltively” with no thought
of quality. By all means let us have
homes, but not at the sacrifice of
beauty; this is the spirit behind the
t)est ijiodirn development work. Good
construction, made beaatiful, will al
ways • remain at a premium In the
home market and good developers will
alwayfi be able to base successful cam
paigns -~en these two fundamentals.—
Detroit Free Press.
Sbrubbery Important
In planting shrubbery, enough Is
needed to cover the base of the house
except where there are windows. This
softens the juncture of the house with
the ground.
The edge of the lawn should also
be planted. Soften the fence lines
by planting shrubbery against th6m.
Do not cut drtwn all the wild bushes
and flowers, ^-specially near the fence;
they are most attractive tf left to grow
and kept free «from weeds. Do not
place artificially formed flower beds
indiscriminately about the yard.
ImproTed Building Par st

waterproof and airtight, a new build

Camel
CIGARETTES
WHY CAMELS
ARE THE BETTER CIGARETTE
Camels are made of the choicest to
baccos grown — cured and blended
with expert care.
Camels are mild and mellow.
The taste of Camels is smooth and
satisfying.
Camels are cool and refreshing.
The fragrance of Camels is always
pleasant, indoors or out.
They do not tire the taste nor leave
any cigaretty after-taste.
