Edith Sheaks and Vina Sheaks ot Chicago spent Christmas with the: sister, Wildy Bottorf Harley Hardy and wife visited in South Bend on Christmas. The Independent came out early lasti week. Well, they are some hustlers. When we got to reading the news we notice in Lapaz what a long string of news. Henry Ford ran in the mud over the top and the Mudd? : Street scribe is going to make a corner on the white mule and Joe was going to tap a barrel and th set hard on Joe. He knew the golden rule, “touch not, taste not, handle not,’’ then when we get through reading it came to our mind that we would go over to gas city, perhaps we would hear some news, so we di> Santa Claus had his whiskers burned off, some talked of getting marrieand Joes’s grass widow fired him on account of that barrel, and so on. Now, Mr. Lapaz scribe, don’t b : Joe so ha:rd but give it to the Muddj ; Street scribe. He can stand it. H ;l back is broad and used to it. A hap- ' py New Year.

FARMERS’ STATE BANK WUTCK® 6 $ Everybody knows Buick builds six-cylinder Valve-in-Head automobiles. — that Buick sold its entire 1920 out-put long before the end of the season. — that Buick has sold a large percentage of its 1921 schedule. — that Buick users are Buick salesmen. — that Buick car values are 100 per cent. Added to their recognized high service value the new Buick models possess a distinctive beauty. Their graceful lines and handsome appointments merit the pride which early buyers have expressed.
