NOW IS THE TIME TO
BUY CA
There is a reason in all things and the reason that Chevrolets
are sold more than any other car is that they are absolutely the
best car value for your money.
Now is the time to buy your automobile. White & Woodward
of Rodman, N. C. are local dealers in Chevrolet passenger cars.
Now is the time to secure the widest selection of models and
now is the time to arrange for delivery.
1920 models are established. The public has had an oppor
tunity to judge them in operation. There will be little change, if
any, during the current year.
There is no indication that the prices will be lowered. The
demand for automobiles is steadily increasing and it becomes
especially heavy from spring on.
By placing your order during the winter months the uncer
tainty of spring and summer demand is avoided. Manufacturers
arc enabled to calculate the demand more definitely and to produce
accordingly. Likewise delivery is made more convenient for the
purchaser.
And there i« plenty of use to be enjoyed from automobiles
during the winter months. The time has past when a car’s utility
ended with fine weather. Today, with all the conveniences, one
uses his car the year around.
In fact it is during severe weather that a car proves to be of
the greatest convenience. Especially is this true of the practical
closed cars that have bcome so popular for all season use. That’s
just what they’re made for.
In short the purchaser who orders his car now has nothing to
lose. If he does not want his car right away delivery may be reg>
ulated accordingly. If he does he can begin to get practical re
turns from it just so much sooner.
And a good car will be as fit as ever when summer comes,
and what’s more he'll have it.

Madam *feveryday Housewife is ex
pected to be well posted concernin''
all the forces entering into the mak
ing of prices. This raises her pro
fession of a business managor of the
home to a plane with tiny Inisiness
executive. With this coino.; added
responsibility.
It is rather a simple mai,ter to livt
up to the added expectation, as the
national women’s magazines and
women’s pages of the leading news
papers are all publishing the correct
economic information. It is impos
sible to speak didactiaclly on the
rising prices of food, for instance,
bewailing the fact and making wild
guesses as to the cause, without
delving into the fundamental causes
that underlie them.
The first necessity is to put our in
dustries on the firm foundation that
only the plentiful production of nec
essity can bring about. The demands
of women buyers are what deter
mine production. The responsibil
ity of practical demands is on the
hc’.ne maker and all women buyers. !
Our standards are not to be low- j
ered, of course, but must be made
sound. When the production of |
luxuries jn’oportionately overbalan- I
CCS the production of -.K ccs.^iLic-s,
thi-re is trouble ahead. In thinking
over the reasons for t)resent i^nces '
for labor and commodities, we must
realize first the .treat gap mad" by
the war in workers in essential in- '
dustries and the reserve supply of '
materials. I
In America alone, five million of
the very best were v,'ithdrawn from i
industry and supported by those
i k'ft. Could such a cessation of pro- :
(iuction, such a withdrawing of mil- I
lions of workers irom the producing i
class and placing them in the sup- '
porteil class, have any other elTect
thr.7i rising prices? It is a fact that
at\er our comparatively small Civil
War it took the United States twelve
years to get back lo a pre-war basis.
Do you know that orginaliy the
hirger y-voportion of persons in |
America were on farms producing
food. Some fifty years ago, 80 per
cent were raising food for the other
20 per cent and themselves. Now i
the mass is huddled in and only 40
per cent are raising food on farms
for the whole 100 per cent of eaters. |
Only a few years ago the farmer |
was a poor, struggling man battling j
with mortages; now he is prosperous, |
owns electrical machinery and an
automobile, and gets high prices. !
I
Raw material must be produced. ;
General industry must be encourag- I
ed, not torn down. Thrift and indus- i
try must become ideal. Production !
I must be regarded as a goal toward ,
I which all America is working. We
must have abundance. Then the nat- |
ural law of supply and demand will !
bring down costs. As long as there |
is a scarcity there will be higher |
])rices. 1
Another cause of higher price is j
higher wage. It is unnecessary to |
dwell on the immense increases in j
waji'es for practically all occupations, j
A few years ago day laborers were
paid $1.00 a day. Those were the
days of 10 cent chops. Untrained
workers earning big sums, unaccus-1
tomed to real investments, have 1
spread a dangerously extravagant
spirit over America. Less work and i
higher wages became a sort of j
mania. Thy fact was lost sight of
that roots of living are in the soil,
and production must be speeded up
there, and from the farm thru all
the successive steps to the table.
It is apparent that prices of foods
are higher generally because of eco
nomic causes unavoidable, and that
this condition must be met by stab
ilizing food production and consump-
' tion and equalizing the distribution.
American people must increase pro
duction until the world shortage is
met and we catch up with pre-war
conditions.
All constructive, sound work on
the part of women, the housekeep
ers, the homfe commissaries, to di
vert the unprecedented demand for
luxurie^ to an economically sound
demand for real values—^to induce
