And no other car is so admirably suited to a woman's requirements as the Most Beautiful Chevrolet. It is easy to start because of its famous Delco-Remy electric starting system. It is easy to stop because of powerful, over-size brakes. And it is easy to drive and park because of a modern three speed transmission, smoorivacting disc cluch, and a semi-reversible steering gear that gives finger-tip steering. Munday Issues Challenge What's the matter with Logansville and Franklin ? i It's about time they were putting on another horse shoe tournament. . On behalf of Franklin Theodore Munday issues the challenge in lan guage loud and coarse. .Logan Allen from whom Loganville takes its name is reported to have said recently that Franklin has only mediocre horse shoe tossers.

FRANKLIN, N. C. Q U A L IT Y A T LOW COST Etna, N. C, May 24, 1927. Editor Franklin Press: There has been quite a little excitement in tJie Oak Grove settlement over the ap pearance of an animal first seen last Friday and continued to be seen until Monday morning by quite a number of people, but not at close range, and there has been various ideas given as to what it was. Some said it was a lion, others said deer, wolf, coyote, etc. One man said its tail was at least four feet long with a bush on the end like a lions. On Sunday it was seen and chased by parties but not captured. Early Monday morning some parties arose long before day and started out on pursuit of the varment with their double barrel shot guns. One young man remarked men if we find him I want you all to take care of my gun, for I am going in." The party failed . to find it but about an hour later it was seen in an open field. The parties were called together by the sound ot a huncters horn. The party got in close range thim time and quite a number of farmers were armed and on their way. Seve ral shots were fired around in the thicket near the Etna postoffice and the animal was killed by Chas. Brad ley and John Hall. Lo! and. behold! it turned out to be a German police dog, with tail about . 18 inches long, but yet the, wonder is where did he come from. Reports is that he has been seen around the foot hills of the Mouse mountain for about six weeks. . The N. C. State Agriculturist is the name of a magazine published monthly by the students of the School of . Agriculture at State. The June issue of this publication has been received in Macon county. It is a well edited number and contains many articles of value to the farmers of the State. Frederick Sloan, a Franklin boy, is editor-in-chief.

Firestone Dealers are given the advantages of at tending Tire Educational Meetings held throughout the country, where tire design and construction are discussed.

This efficient and economical distribution assures tire buyers everywhere, clean, fresh stocks of Firestone and Oldfield Tires in all types and sizes, and has helped to make possible today's remarkably low prices the lowest in tire history.

More and more people are asking: "Why should my used car seem to have several val ues? . . . . Why should deal ers in different makes of cars offer me allowances differing materially? Does the largest allowance offered mean the best deal forme?'9 Here are basic facts : IYour used car has seemingly different values because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new car. 2 Your used car has only one funda mental basis of value : what the dealer who accepts it in trade can get for it in the used car market. . 3 The largest trade-in allowance which is offered on your used car is not nec essarily the best deal for you. Sometimes it is ; but sometimes it is not. 4 An excessive allowance may mean, that you are paying an excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. 5 Judge the merits of the new car in comparison with its price, including all delivery and finance charged Then weigh any difference in allowance offered on your used car. WHEN YOU are ready to trade in your present car, remem ber that after all you are making a purchase arid not a sale. You are buying a new car and simply applying your present car as a credit toward the purchase price of a new car. GENERAL MOTORS Clip and mail the coupon below ' GENERAL MOTORS (Dept.
