Seven Changes Made in Pontiac ' Oakland Motor Car Compafiy announces seven improverents.. designed to make the new series Pontiac Six pore powerful faster. and more {lexible of operation. e Major changes include a new caryuretor, new intake manifold, new iir deflector higher gear ratio, larger ires, smaller wheels, and smart new Duco colors on the sport dandau seq dan. .

Outstanding among the new improv{ nents is a one-inch carburetor of th¢ \pproved type used on the Oakland All-American Six. Not only is it sim, sler of adjustment and more accuratd than the ol dtype, but increased speed Jower accelerafitfn and fuel economy ire achieved by its use in conjunction vith the new manifold and gear ratio. *snnected with the carburetor is a lew mushroom type air deflector The intake manifold has been ‘hanged to accomodate changes in thq :arburetor, and the rear axle geay atio stepped up to 4.3 to 1. Marked mprovement in every phase of per: ‘ormance is instantly noticeable be2ind the wheel, with a higher top jpeed and an ample reserve power a. 111 driving ranges. : : With the increase in gear ratio, he rate of piston travel is -still coniiderably less than that of any othed aar in the low priced six cylinder field Thus Pontiac retains an advantage if las held since its introduction? minimun of wear of moving parts, which means longer life for the car. | QGreater beauty and a big car appearance, in line with the current vogue, is achieved by the use of larger 29 by 5 inch balloon tires and smaller wheels with ten sturdy spokes, and a larger seven-and-a-quarter inch hub flange. The larger tires result in greater riding comj fort and lessening of tire wear. -

Simultaneous with these mechanical changes is the announcement that the smart sport landau sedan will take on new dress. Theb ody will be a dark Standish green Duco, with fenders of lighter Cirginian green—a combination similar to that now used on thq on the Oakland All-American cabriolet. Wheels are in natural wood finish. :

Special sport equipment c(_)nsistinq of a trunk rack and six wire wheelg with tires also is available for the first time on a low priced six. Spareg are mounted in front fender wells on either side of the car while non-cor-rosive chrome plated rims add a brilliant touch of color to the swanky model. New and distintive bumpers also are available.

In view of the bettered performancg and new beauty effected by thesq changes it was felt in antomotive cir; cles here that the Pontiac Six would take on an added spurt in the record setting pace it has consistently maintained since its introduction. To Pave Part of Highway. Steps have been taken by the DeKalb county commissioners, in spes cial session, to pave a portion of thé Auburn-Fort Wayne road in DeKalh county. The board issued an order establishing the road and adopted an ordinance authorizing a $150,000 bond issue to pay for the construction work.

~ AND MONEY FROM THE UNWARY Bankers Association Official Tells How Young Peoble - Are Fleeced in “Hokum Pokum” Movie Schemes—- | The Investor Loses Savings by Listening # to Messrs.

pokum schemes that there i 8 room for all, because this last year over 100,000 young people knocked at the door for admiesion and were turned away because there was no room on the inside for them. Consult your banker or address the National Better Business Bureau, New York City, for information -or advice regarding any enterprise that seeks to gain posses: slon of your mony. They will give disinterested counsel before it is too late. :

Also let every investor approached by either Mr. Slick or Mr. Smooth with a proposition yielding big dividends remember that such assurances always spell financial danger ahead. To every investor who is inexperienced in making investments, in other words perhaps just a little green and perhaps a little too easy, any offer coming from this source should be like a red. flag warning to come to a complete stop. : Such investments as Mr, Slick or Mr. Smooth offer are too good to be true and therefore they are not true. Slick, Smooth and Company are not miracle workers although from their sales talk you would infer that they could make you rich as if by magic. No, they are not miracle workers—juet slick and smooth. ' The Estate Gag .

Twenty-four “estates” representing 535 billions of dollars have been used as bait to interest a lot of savers and finally bleed them of their savings. The scheme is built around a supposed search for the heirs to certain phantom estates. At all costs these heirs must be found. Every person who can by any hook or crook, figure it out that he is in anyway related to the deceased are urged by some shyster lawyer or genealogist to send in their names and their life history. Soon they receive glad tidings telling them that their family tree can be traced back to the deceased, in fact, they are a direct descendant and an heir at law. - ;

Like fake raffles everybody who reeponds to the search is found to be a winner—in other words an ‘“heir,” Here is where the rainbow chaser gets trimmed. Before his claim to the mythical thousands can be pressed =0 as to Insure success a demand is made on him to advance attorney’s fees and pay the expense of tracing through his genealogy.

THE NEW FARMING AGCOUNT SCHOOL

The good business farmer today watches his farm accounts carefully. In respect to his labor, his farm stock and his soil, he knows what they can do and how they can be most profit ably handled. He knows the mathe. matics of growing feed from the soil, pigs and poultry from the feed and cash profits from pigs and poultry. He knows whether he Is milking the cow for paying returns or the cow is milking him out of his invested capftal. Wherever his accounts show & -deficit or insufficient profit on one or more items, he immediately studies to overcome the handicap and cor rect any mistakes that have been made.

The Agricultural Commission of the American Bankers Association is conducting a nationwide educational campaign for better methods of farm ac counting. The commission has been stressing the wisdom of country bankers through cooperation of county agents, calling farmers together, and holding account schools where instruection is given on the use of the farm account books. :

Each person is led through the vark ous steps in keeping accounts and “each enters his own inventory which ‘ he, has previously been instructed to take and bring to school. This gives & good start and when properly fol-

motion pictures. Because so many are ready to leave home, and risk everything on a fling at motion pictures, unscrupulous persons have devised ways of fleecing these ambitious young people out of their savings. “Hokum-pokum” schemes of various kinds are used with great success. Fake courses in the art of acting before the camera, fake courses on how to make-up, fake registration gags and screen tests, are among the schemes used to separate these thousands of young people from their cash. The pilgrimage to the motion pictures centers by thousands of novices usually ends disastrous!y for the pilgrims. Naturally a few are successful, but only a very, very few, the ninety and nine -meeting with disappointment. The truth is, the number of persons who seek to “break into” the movies exceed the number of available positions by

HOW TO GO BRNKE FARMING

1. Grow only one crop. 2. Keep no livestock. ; 8. Regard chickens and a garden a 8 nuisances.

4. Take everything from the sofil and return nothing. : e b. Don’t stop gullies or grow cover crops—llet the top soil wash away, then you will have “bottom” land. 6. Don’t plan your farm operations It’s hard work thinking—trust to luck .7. Regard your woodland as you would a coal mine, cut every tree, sell the timbe§ and wear the cleared land out cultivating it in corn. : 8. Hold fast to the idea that the methods of farming employed by your grandfather are good.enough for you - 9. Be independent—don’t join with your neighbors in any form of co operation. 10. Mortgage your farm “or every dollar it will stand to buy things you would have the cash to buy if you fol lowed a good system .of farming.— Division of Extension, University of Tennessee. o :
