* " 1 L_L_ Santa Claus and His Dog Team S\NT\ ( LAI’S LEAVES TOYLAND AND IS CAUGHT IN FIERCE BLIZZARD IN JOURNEY TO DECATUR Dogs are Having Hard Time Climbing Hills in North.

Dogs are hiving hard time climbing hilts in north. Word reached Snnta Claus Toy-.' land Sunday, that a great Northern blizzard was raging in the north.! so Santa Claus ordered the little elves who were making preparations for his journey to Decatur. ■ to hurry, and he started immedi- i ately on his visit to the good boys and girls in Adams County. Struggling along in a giant I Northern blizzard. Santa Claus is having a hard and cold journey to I Decatur. In many places the dogs ] have mighty hard pulling to get’ j Santa's big sleigh up seme of the , steep hills. The country through’ which they are now travelling is TAG(;ART NAMED BY DEMOCRATS iCONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) by Meredith Nicholson, seventh district chairman. An air of suspense prevailed the ,’ meeting when St phen Fleming. ; Fort Wayne, leader of the Eiling-1 ham forces, and enemy of Peters.' enter’d the room with a proxy from i Jam s W. Carpenter, sixth district' ehairman. It was known that a meeting had been held in his room, at which a resolution calling for an audit of state finances and asking ! appointment of a special committee ! t > take charge of the next state I cammittee, was framed. Ca penter; Grover Garrett, chief, of state police and ninth district ; ; ehairman; Lee F. Bays, second dis-1 ■ trict chairman: Arthur Hamtick. three times nominee for secretary’ ’ of state, and Albert L. Clark, fifth district chairman, were present. It was finally deeid d to introI duce fl resolution calling for a I state committee meeting January; | 6th. at which the Anti-Peters ele-1

• • Positive Proof of Ford Economy City of Detroit purchases 137 new Ford cars Hundreds now in use prove low cost of operation

These. 137 new Ford cars represent one of the largest deliveries ever made to a municipality at one time. 21 radio-equipped Ford scout cars were traded in on this purchase. They had been operated day r.nd night for two years in heavy traffic and all kinds of weather. Their individual records ranged from 78,431 miles to 1 13.723 miles with a grant! total of 2.233.097 miles. The operating cost of the 21 cart was 2.284 cents a mile — less than 2 1/3 cents. This cost included all fuel. oil. tires, repairs and every other item except depreciation and insurance. Os 577 Ford cars in Detroit City service, the 300 in the Police Department traveled a total of 6.591.937 miles durins the past fiscal year, at an average cost of 2.9 cents a mile. Manv claims have been made on opera!I * B ing costs, but here in the carefully kept motor car records of the City of Detroit is positive proof of Ford economy. In the paragraphs above, it is seen that 21 Ford scout cars averaged less than 2 1/3

very hilly and rugged, but in a day, or so thfiy will be out of it and then ihe worst of the journey will be over. Santa s route will bring him down through Alaska and he will prob-' ably arrive at Fairbanks about tonight. He is taking things as easy iis possible so as not to weary his faithful dogs. You see it will take quite some time for Santa to complete the long journey ahead of' him. There probably aren't many boys and girls in this vicinity who have actually seen a real dog team, so j [they will be pretty anxious for our' distinguished guest to arrive. Per- ! haps if the school boys and girls rnent felf that it would have a bet-1 1 ter chance t : reduce IL' p. we.’i of ! the state chairman. Immediately after Tag g a r t’s speech of acceptance a motion was made to adjourn. Fleming, who had the resolution, was instantly upon his feet with a motion for a roll call. The vote, was 19 t > 7 for adjournment. Those I npposinz it were Garrot: Fleming; Bays: Clark: Joseph W. Verbarg. | Fourth district chairman; Mrs. Carl i Woods, seventh district vice chairman. nnd Mrs. George P. Schwin, ninth district vice chairman. o MESHBERGERS LOW RIDDERS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE; gram :oi the remainder of the year. ] last year’s cement was purchased entirely by the commission. It amounted to approximately $1,500.000 and cost an average of $1.29 a barrel. Included in today’s bids and low i bidders was U. S. Road 27 2.3 miles in Adams County, a 20 foot pave-

cents a ini!e and 300 Ford cars in all branches of Detroit police work averaged 2.9 cents a mile! Day and night, twenty-four hours a day, these Ford cars are in operation. Fewbranches of transportation demand such grueling service. The records show that low fuel and oil consumption is but one of the Ford's many economies. Ford materials. simplicity of design and accuracy in manufacturing provide unusual strength, stamina and freedom from replacements ind repairs. The individual car buyer as well as the purchasing department of a city or a business cannot afford to ignore the proved economy of the Ford car. FIFTEEN niFFEHE.NT BOM TYPES *430*»«640 (F. O. H.

I ask their teacher, she will tell them about these brave dogs. Since Santa has decided to visit i Decatur the stores have begun to develop a real Christmas atmosphere. The toy departments in the various stores have begun to make their appearances, decked out in all the gala trimmings that go with this season of the year. They contain so many wonderful gifts for good boys and girls that when one looks at them it is pretty | hard to make up your mind just what you want. Santa is going to I lie more than pleased when he sees all the nice things that the mer- ’ chants have to show him when he arrives. I ment on the Monroe cutoff.
