THE UN I VER SAL-CAR The Ford Model T One Ton Truck is in reality a necessity to the wide awake retail grocer, not only for the economic solution of the delivery problem, but for the bringing of goods from the docks or stations to his place of business, and for traversing the country and bringing in produce. For years the Ford One Ton Truck with its splendid manganese bronze powerful Ford Mode! T Motor, strong Vanadium steel frame, has been serving in every line of business activity, and we have yet to hear the first complaint as to rear axle trouble or motor trouble. It has the lowest purchase price on the market, and the cost for operating and maintaining is exceedingly small. In fact, the Ford One Ton Truck has become a business necessity. Leave your order with us without delay. We will give you prompt attention and assure you reasonably prompt delivery, and give you an after service that will insure your continuous operation of the Truck.

Probably in later years Senator Lodge will be as proud of his leader•ship in the senate as the country now ■is proud of him—and no proudei. His chief claim to distinction is that he led the fight that, for *the time being, has defeated ratification -of the peace treaty and deferred hope for a lasting peace. It must be comforting to the distinguished senator that he was devotedly aided in his work by another distinguished senator, Mr. Newberry of Michigan, who now stands convicted of criminal conspiracy, with a prison sentence hanging over him. To know that it was the vote of a senator so branded which enabled him to

pack the foreign relations committee and defeat the .great peace purpose of the president and the great body of the American people is doubtless sweet unction to the distinguished New England senator’s soul! His accusers would have the public believe that the president is an autocrat, but pin them down and they cannot put their finger on one single instance in which he has exceeded his constitutional authority. It is one thing to deal in glittering generalities, and quite another to point out a concrete fact. Wood, Johnson and Lowden are the irreconcilables in the g. o. p. presidential camp, and are likely to be the source of a lot of worry to the “old guard” bosses when the curtain is raised at Chicago. In the impending campaign, the Democratic party will enjoy the enviable distinction of being able to run pn its record rather than away from it. Suggestion to the Republican congress: It is better to do something and make a miistake than to make a mistake doing nothing.
