KEEP ON LIVING.
It’s the plugging away that will win
you the day:
So don’t be a “piker,” old pard:
Just draw on your grit: its so easy to
quit;
It’s keeping your chin up that’s hard.
It’s easy to cry that your beaten—
and die;
It’s easy to crawfish and crawl:
But to fight and to fight when hope’s
out of sight—
Why that’s the best game of all!
And though you come out of each
gruelling bout
All broken and beaten and scarred,
Just have one more try—its dead easy
to die—
It’s to keep —on—living that’s hard.
Ambrose Rohde.
DID YOU KNOW THAT
“GRAVE ALICE IS DEAD?
The following will prove of interest
to students of American literature.
“Cambridge. Mass., Dec. 7.
“Miss Alice Mary Longfellow,
daughter of the poet, Henry Wads
worth Longfellow, died at her home
here today. She was 78 years old.
Miss Longfellow, the “Grave Alice”
of her father’s poem, “The Children’s
Hour,” lived at the Longfellow home
all her life. She was the eldest of the
poet’s daughters.
She had devoted much of her time
to educational work. She was a mem
ber of the board of associate of Rad
eliffe and also was Massachusetts vice
regent of the Mount Vernon associa
tion.
The couplet in “The Children’s
Hour,” mentining Alice, reads:
“Grave Alice and laughing Allegra,
And Edith with golden hair.”
Miss Longfellow was one of five
daughters of the poet and his second
wife, the former Frances Templeton.
A sister, Mrs. Thorp of Cambridge, is
her only surviving relative.”
OAKLAND-PONTIAC.
Pontiac, Mich., Dec. 10: Prepa
rations for the building of the first
Pontiac Sixes for 1929 were under
way this week at the plant of the
Oakland Motor Car Company with the
completion of inventory-taking and
the soaring of employment figures to
the highest December level in history,
according to W. R. Tracy, vice-presi
dent in charge of sales.
By the middle of the month, it is
expected that cars will be on their
way to distant points so that dealers
nay have on hand display models
when details of the line are made pub
lic around the first of the year, Mr.
Tracy stated.
Promised as a “bigger, smarter,
I more pow'ei’ful and more luxurious
Pontiac, bringing big car features
within the price range of the small
six,” this newest creation of the fast
growing Oakland division of General
] Motors has given arise to many ru
! mors and much speculation here be
cause of the phenomenal volume
;j growth of the Pontiac Six.
Introduced on the market for the
first time at the New York Automo
bile Show in 1920, the car in less than
three years has toppled all former
sales records for a new make of car,
and during the height of the past sell
ing season out-sold every other make
of six cylinder car in the domestic
market for several months.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of new dies, tools, machines,
testing gauges, etc., to build the new
car are being installed in the modem
Oakland-Pontiac plant, which in 1929
will have a capacity of 35,000 cars.
Production of several parts for the
new car already is under way, while
other parts are being put into pro
duction as fast as equipment is made
ready. The three Pontiac assembly
lines, each a quarter of a mile long,
are being re-arranged to build the car
in the greatest volume in the history
of the company for this season of the
year.
Tentative plans call for a substan
tial production of new Pontiacs in De
cember to be following by greatly in
creased output in January. The plant
capacity of Pontiac Sixes every work
ing day is expected to be taxed to
capacity well into 1929 to meet the
anticipated demand, Mr. Tracy stated.

The utilities of a city
are combined
in your motor car
YOUR automobile is some
thing like a miniature city.
There is an electric light and
power system, a water sys
tem, a fuel system.
* In the new Fort!, you will
find each of these systems
of the latest design and best
materials. Every part has
been made to serve you faith
fully and well at a minimum
of trouble and expense.
Take, for example, the
generator—one of the most
important parts of the elec
trical system which supplies
the current for lighting and
for engine ignition.
In the new Ford, the gen
erator is of the power-house
type and is distinctive in
many features. It has been
specially designed to pre
vent most forms of trouble.
Oiling is necessary only once
a year. About the only thing
you need do is t, have the
charging rate changed as
the seasons change.
Closely allied to the elec
trical system is the ignition
system. It, too, is of new
mechanical design in the
new Ford. There is but one
high tension cable and that
connects the coil with the
distributor. Even cables
from the distributor to the
spark plugs have
been eliminated. |
Special care has also
been taken to make the dis
tributor water-proof, thus
preventing short circuits
from rain, etc.
The entire electrical and
ignition systems of the new
Ford are so simple in design
and so carefully made that
they will give you surpris
ingly little trouble. Yet that
doesn’t mean they should
be neglected. Certain little
attentions are needed from
time to time.
The storage battery
should be given water and
the connections kept clean.
Hie generator charging rate
should Ik* changed as indi
cated. Spurk plugs should
be cleaned at regular inter
vals. Distributor points
should also be kept clean
and the distributor cam
given a light film of vaseline
every 2000 miles.
These are just little
things, but they mean a
great deal to your car. You
can have them looked after
at very small cost by the
Ford dealer when you take
the car in for oiling and
greasing.
A thorough checking-up
at regular intervals will
lengthen the life of your ear
and give you many thou
sands ot miles ot
carefree,economical
motoring.
