An Instance of a happy and model homo life was given Tuesday evening at u meeting of farmers at Monroe, when Otto Holle, one of the busy and progressive farmers of I'nion township, gave a number of musical selections with his son, the boy only eight or nine years old, playing the piano while the father sang. It was an inspiration and the audience sensed the real enjoyment of the father and son. Alr. Holle, although busy in the fields from early morning until late at night, found time to be n companion und play-mate with his children und the good results from such a companionship and home-life are beyond mere speculation. Fathers and mothers should always be companions to their children, for In the long run, no one ranks us high or Is as much of a hero with the good child as a good father and mother. r>

Then on some steels we pay makers a 15 per cent bonus to insure exactness in them. • « » Every Studebaker car is Tim-ken-equipped. The Special-Six and the Big-Six have more Timken bearings than any car selling under $5,600 in America.

The Light-Six more than any competitive car within SI,OOO of its price. • 6 a We use genuine leather upholstery. We use Chase Mohair for the closed car upholstery. Some good upholstery would cost SIOO less. To curb vibration, we machine all surfaces of crank shafts, as was done in Liberty Airplane Motors. Very few cars do that. How such prices? How can we give

such extra values—scores of them—yet sell at our low prices? Because these values brought us buyers—l4s,ooo last year. The major extra costs are divided by enormous output Let us show you the extras you get, because of these matchless facilities.
