Now Drive- The Car
Only those who have driven a Dodge
Brothers Special Sedan or any Dodge
Brothers car BUILT RECENTLY can
fully appreciate all that Dodge Brothers
have accomplished during the past few
months.
So swiftly has improvement followed
improvement, that today the car, to all
intents and purposes, is a different and
incomparably finer vehicle.
The announcement of smart new body
lines and attractive color combinations
first attracted general favor. But since
then, improvements even more fun
damental have been accomplished
mechanically.
Drive the car NOW! Observe its im
pressive new silence, smoothness and
elasticity of performance, and you will
then begin to realize just how vital-and
varied these and other later improve
ments actually are.

N. C. Farmers Lucky
Compared With Others,
N. L. Barnard Declares
N. L. Barnard returned to Franklin
Wednesday of last week after a four
months trip through the northwest.
While away, Mr. JJarnard visited his
two sons, Harry Barnard and J. C.
Barnard, of Grand view and Seattle,
Washington, respectively, and -his two
daughters, Mrs. Joe Younce and Mrs.
R. J. Roper, both of Fossil, Ore.
Mr. Barnard had planned, just before
returning to North Carolina, to pay
visits to other Macon county people in
the northwest. He changed his mind,
however, he said, when a snowstorm
swept that country. He decided to
leave the northwest and the snow
storm simaltaneously, and had to post
pone the. visits he had planned.
North Carolina fanners are in better
condition today, Mr. Barnard declared,
than any he saw in the northwest.
Low prices for farm products and the
high cost of farm labor are given by
Mr. Barnard as the primary causes of
the agricultural distress in the west.
Despite the agricultural conditions,
however, Mr. Barnard returned to
this State with nothing but words of
praise for the State of Washington,
which he declares is one of the best
States he has ever seen.
