"Uncle!"
IF that car of yours has put its
best days behind it, there's no
time like right now to think
about starting out afresh with
a taut, new, up-to-the-minute
motorcar with all its mileage still
in it.
And there's no better place in the
world to start than with the
beauty pictured here, for a variety
of reasons.
VJf course, you can't see all of
this in the brief span of a trial
drive. '
But you can experience the good
solid feel of Buick strength
beneath you. You can satisfy
yourself on the lightness of the
controls, the utter smoothness of
Dynaflow, the quick surge of
Buick's Fireball power.
All such things will tell you that
this is a car you'll be glad to live
with for a long time to come ?
and you need only to ask your
Buiclc dealer for a demonstration
to see precisely what we mean.
Why hot call on him soon to talk
about signing up?
Ihen, too ? this high-styled
beauty is proving to be frne of
the most economical Buicka ever
built? easy on gas, easy on upkeep,
eaay on you in its soft, floating,
light-handling comfort.
It even comes with Dynaflow
Drive* if you like ? and Dynaflow
means that you will never have
to service or replace a friction
clutch, and that rear-end or trans
mission servicing ? even engine
upkeep ? are cut to. a minimum.

Good leather from a stray

strengthening children's winter'
mittens or gloves as well as for
elbow patches on jackets and
play coats. It may bind edges of
sleeves or jackets that get hard
wear. Bits of good leather may
cover buttons for sports clothes.
The leftover stocking or sock
needn't go to waste. Yarn from it
may come in very handy for
mending. Ravel the yarn and
wind on spools for the mending

The Herald - $2.00 Per Year
haven't been fiddling ??
n the past ten years, the Southern
Railway System has spent more than
$150 million for new locomotives and cars.
We bought 643 modern Diesel loco
motive units, 17,609 Freight cars of all
kinds and 145 lightweight streamlined
passenger cars. On top of that, additional
thousands of cars have been built or
rebuilt in our own shops.
But this is only part of the story. Other
millions have been spent to improve road
way and track. ..to build new bridges and
shops... to enlarge and modernize yards.
This betterment program will continue.
Because we know that in the future, as
In the past, a strong, progressive Southern
Railway System will be an important
factor in the growth, progress and
strength of the Southland . . . and of all
America.
