What does it take to make a car a great high
way performer?
If the car happens to be a ’64 Chevrolet,
one thing only. A highway.
You’ll find everything else already neatly
packaged for you—on the car exactly as you
pick it off the showroom floor.
There’s a choice of seven engines—all the
way up to a twin-carb high-compression
425-hp V8*—and four transmissions, includ
ing a finely honed 4-speed stick shift.*
And underlying it all—a bump-skimming
What about special performance equip
ment? Professional driving skills? Forget
them.
Nobody has to doctor or coax or soup up
these Chevrolets to get the best out of them.
And that’s really the test of a great high
way performer: Just about anyone can get a
kick out of driving one, just about anywhere,
just as it comes out of the showroom.
Next time you’re out your dealer’s way,
allow a few extra minutes to sample one of
these highway performers on your own. A few
Jet-smooth ride that helps keep
the performance great even when
the highways aren’t so great.
are really all you’ll need. That’s
enough time to do a lot of driving
in a Chevrolet. *Oplional at extra cost

The fir t meeting of the
Xew Year, of the N’nrth Fo'-k
Community Club will be held
at 7:30 PM. in Holcombes
basement, on January lo—
;hat is Monday evening. The
program committee has plan
i-'-d an evening of slides,
which should be very enter
taining a- well as instructive.
The Ravens met in the
h nv of Howard Willet on
Saturday evening. Eleven
members attended.
It was decided to buy new
f]atrs—the United States flag
and the 4-H flag. The mem
bers also filled out their pro
ject cards for the following
year, and started choosing
their programs for 1964.
The officers; Phyllis Mul
let, president; Robert Clay
ton, vice-president; Kay Mil
let, secretary-treasurer; Mike
Morris, reporter; and Ronnie
Vanover, county-council rep
resentative had their pictures
taken for the paper.
The roads in spots were a
little precarious, and climbing
the hill to Willet’s proved
too much for Harry Morris s
Jeep. It slipped off into the
ditch, making it necessary to
put the heaviest passengers
on the hood. When Jeff Mor
ris and Robert Clayton were
safely esconced, the Jeep fi
nally came out of the ditch
and reached its destination.
Speaking of slippery roads,
on the 31st of December when
the snow was falling rapidly,
and covering everything so
beautifully, parents began to
get worried when no children
were home by quarter to five.
Bart Burnett took his car to
the church where he establish
ed a lookout, and Lige Walk
er and his son-in-law, Whit
aker took Whitaker’s truck to
meet the school bus. It was
fortunate for the Germains
that both cars were there,
for they were slipping toward
the ravine just below the
church, and no amount of
gravel seemed to help. A
tow rope, and kind neighbors
pulled them to safety.

How to be smarter than your wife
(on the subject of Savings Bonds)
Of coarse, there’s no question about who’s
smarter at your house on most subjects.
But to remove any doubt as to who knows
more about U. S. Savings Bonds, the
Treasury Department presents this little
quiz. You take it first so you’ll know all
the answers and then pop it on your
spouse. Great for the morale.
1. A Series E Savings Bond reaches
maturity in:
□ 5 years D7X years □ 10 years
2. The money you earn from Savings
Bonds is exempt from state and local
income taxes.
□ true □ false
8. You have to be an American to buy
U. S. Savings Bonds.
□ true □ false
4. Americans owned more Savings Bonds
in:
□ 1943 □ 1953 □ 1963
6. Unde Sam will give you a new Bond
free if:
□ You accidentally toss it in the
washing machine
□ The neighbor’s dog swallows it
whole
□ A thief steals it
6. It's hard to redeem a Savings Bond.
□ true □ false
7. A Bond that costs $18.76 will:
□ Grow "to $25 and stop
□ Keep on growing, if you don’t cash
it in
8. You can have somebody else buy your
Bonds for you.
□ true □ false
ANSWERS
1.7% years is correct.
2. True. What’s more, federal tax on
E Bond interest may be deferred
until the Bond is redeemed.
3. Generally speaking, true. You must
be either a resident; a citizen living
abroad; or an employee of the U.S.,
military or civilian.
4. In spite of the fact that Bond-buy
ing was nearly universal during the
war years, the correct answer is
1963.
6. You’re right no matter which an
swer you checked.
6. False. Any bank will redeem your
E Bond anytime after the two
months’ holding period.
7. A Serb's E Bond will keep growing
for 10 years past maturity. Exten
sion is automatic.
8. True. A perfect example is the
Payroll Savings Plan. You can
buy Bonds for other people, too.
In fact, they make excellent gifts

THE POSTMAN WALKS ABOUT SIX MILES A DAY
. the businessman around four . . . the average house
wife walks over nine miles a day! From this we draw at
least one conclusion. Extension telephones are the answer
to every housewife's prayer. They save steps, time, and
energy. An extension phone in just the right place . .
kitchen, bedroom, family room ... can make a big dif
ference in a busy housewife s day!

THE HOUSE OF DEEN WAH is
probably the world’s most unique
telephone booth. It's located in
New York City’s Chinatown and
is built like a small pagoda. A
Chinese house-warming was held
at its opening. Incense was burned,
and a make-believe tiger frightened
away evil spirits so that telephone
users would meet with gooa iuck
in their business, social and romantic affairs. By the way,
“Deen Wah” means “electric talker.”
• * *
TELEPHONE OPERATOR: “Do you have the Area
Code?”
CALLER: “No, just a bad case of hay lever.”
♦ * *
AND SPEAKING OF AREA CODES . . . why not in
clude them when making a list of numbers you use most
often. You'll find many of them in the front of your
directory, others you can get from the operator. Once you
have your own personal list complete, keep it beside your
phone for even quicker, more convenient Long Distance
calling.

YOUR FAMILIAR TELEPHONE HAS AN EXOTIC
BACKGROUND! Tin from Bolivia . . . rubber from
Indonesia . . . nickel from Norway .. . copper from Chile
