OFF-KEY REPLY A steady customer became indignant at receiving a type written letter, many years ago, from Montgomery Ward & Co., one of the first American firms to use type- wnters.

The point is. you don't need a bigger car outside to have the comforts inside. The six-passenger car still tn tune with the times. Ford thinks a lot of people need and want a solid, well-made car that can carry six people comfort ably. Also, in these times, it's good to know that the Ford LTD uses regular gas. And comes equipped with standard steel-belted radial ply tires they deliver thousands of extra miles over non radials. Orrven sensibly, the Ford LTD offers real economy anr convenience on today's roads. You can pay more for six-passenger luxury.

Mr. Abel stated that the meeting would begin at 10 a. m. and he cor dially invites all farmers to attend. The primary purpose of the meeting is to give Mr. Abel an opportunity to meet many of the Madison County farmers and particularly the tomato producers. He said he is desiring to help the fanners in every way possible in their tomato production. He is anxious to help fanners secure stakes or TEST Do you know as much as you should about the money you earn and spend? Test your mastery of money and credit management on this five question quiz compiled by financial counselors: (1) WhaC$ the difference between your discretionary income and your ditpotable incomet Your take-home pay, after taxes and other deductions is your net, or dis posable income. After you have paid for such essentials as shelter, food, bills, etc., the remainder is what consumer finance experts call your discretionary income income that can either be spent on .uxuries or invested. (2) ALL life insurance a form of savings? No. Term insurance, which can only be taken out for specified renewable periods such as one-year, five-years or ten-years isnt a form of savings, because it has no value after it expires. However, many financial experts recommend term insurance for young married couples because of its low cost.

He also welcomes those who prefer the Manpal variety. "I am anxious to meet the local farmers and make plans for the tomato output this season," Mr. Abel said. He stated that he will also offer prizes on A-Grade and tonnage to members of the F. F. A. and 4-H Clubs in the county. He added that all growers can enter the "fi acre Club for high tonnage." Orders for plants will be accepted at the meeting and Mr. Abel stated that the Marshall shed will work all local people and will train all local packers. MANAGING YOUR MONEY YOUR MONEY MASTERY cash? Not necessarily. Studies show that people who use credit can be found in nearly every income bracket. One of their reasons for borrowing or buying on credit is that it enables them to enjoy such major items as cars, furniture, and home improvements, while they're paying for them. Often, credit is used by people who have ample savings but don't wish to d sturb their account. (4) Is a credit card, bank balance and well-stuffed checking account adequate for all possible financial requirements? Not for all emergencies and " quick opportunities that either require cash or its equivalent in travelers checks. Situations that call for substantial cash outlays can come up quickly any time, when there may not be a chance to convert your liquid assets into cash, so keep $500 or at least $200 in travelers checks around the house in a safe place. First National City Travelers Checks are an excellent choice, because they can be used everywhere and, if lost or stolen, are refundable "on the spot" in more locations Boats On Land, Sea, Air 007 In Record Boat Jump What may be a world record boat leap climaxes a spectacular chase in the new James Bond movie, Live and Let Die", coming this summer.
