The WPA men are at work on the pub lic school grounds, and playground, and the park to park highway is being tbuilt not very far from us. This means a pay roll, and a pay roll means that we can get cash at the Sale, if we have some good clothes to sell, and especially if we have men's clothes. Oh, please just beg them to send us all the men's clothes that they can find, and all the good clothes for ladies and children, even if they have gone out of style. We'll use them. We'll make them over. Our folks have learned to appreciate, good quality material. So little cash is given .us during the summer, and we1 have those left-over grocery bills and coal bills staring us in the face. Clothes, that will bring in cash mean reducing those bills. So put us where people will read us, and join us in hoping and trusting they will respond. Gratefully, Mary M., Sloop, Bus. Mgr. Crossnore School, .' i Crossnore, N. C.

Yet Floyd Roberts set a new record, at this year's Indianapolis Race, averaging 117.2 miles an hour for the 500 miles on Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires. With the sun-baked brick of the straight-away and the granite-hard surface of the turns pulling and grinding at their tires, 33 daring drivers, every ohe on Firestone Tires, waged a thrilling battle for gold and glory. Never before have tires been called upon to take such punishment. Never in all the history of the motor car has tire safety been put to such a gruelling test. Yet not one tire failed not one single cord loosened because Gum -Dipping, that famous Firestone patented process saturates and coats , every cotton fiber in every cord in every ply with liquid rubber counteracting the tire-destroying internal friction and heat that ordinarily cause blowouts. Why risk your life and the lives of others on unsafe tires?
