The 4th of July is the day they are mostly used, and the sale and use of them before then should be prohibited. :o: To Poor Richard is attributed the remark that time Is money. But on the exchange of some people's mental and physical exertions it wouldn't bring a German mark. :o: Wiles Grove Is one of the most beautiful woodlands in this section of the country.

Nels will go, of course. It's anything"! "to spread it on" with him among republican politicians. :o: Newspaper advertising ha3 an ex traordinary way of making warm friends for a business. As success in business is to a large extent depend ent on public sentiment, favorable attention must be attracted to a bus iness by newspaper advertising in order for that business to succeed. Business men who can't see any good in advertising should buy a lot in the cemetery, send for the doctor and phone for the undertaker they'll soon bo dead. What do you think about it.

IVE With a new car, the experienced motorist may try several high grade oils. But he buys oil by name and grade, and standardizes on some favored grade. That's why his car runs quietly and smoothly and brings the highest price as a used car. Polarine is the name of five grades of motor oils, each of un surpassed quality. A grade to suit every make and size of gaso line motor light, medium, heavy, special heavy and extra heavy. Polarine shows unusual resistance to injury by heat and it main tains a protective film of lubricant under all condi' "ons. It does not wear out quickly. Consult the Polarine Chart and use the grade of Polarine that has been proved best suited to your car. It is the surest way to keep down repair costs. Buy oil and gasoline where you see this sign.
