SMALL DOSES - Past & Present:
A Prairie Picture
By ROMAINE SAUNDERS. Special Correspondent
The sun is receding toward |
winter quarters. At this writ
ing, day and night setting are *
nearly equal, the sun rising at
6:11 and setting at 6:30, When
gold of early autumn sunset
is submerged in dark shadows,
when night has spread its
pinions over prairieland and
the song of birds has been
stilled the evening star glows
in regal beauty low in the
southwest heavens — the first
to appear on the starry dome’s
opening page. “The host of
heaven cannot be numbered,”
declared Jeremiah. They need
not be numbered. Numberless,
sublime — the reflection of
the greater splendor out be
yond the vast unknown shin
ing from the throne of God.
I cannot lay a hand upon
the Milky Way
Nor paint the sunset’s
burnished gold;
But I shall see His glory
there
Within my heart to hold.

Out of an exalted sense of
religious fervor, some church
men decry the Hirosima bomb
ing now, more than a year on
the scroll of American mili
tary records. It was Hiro
shima or ultimately Washing
ton.
In the grim busiess of war
compassionate impulse is sub
dued in the all-out effort to
crush the foe. The A - bomb
brought Nippon to his knees,
ended the war, saved the lives
of countless Yankee soldiers
and sailors, opened prison
camps of horror and pagan
lands to a fuller freedom for
the spread of the church
men’s message. >

I have been favored with a
marked copy of a publication,
whose inspired genius may be
either communist, anarchist or
patriot. But see what he has
in cold type: . the
Magna Charta.Declara
tion of Independence of 1776.
. . . those documents have
failed us!” That for which
colonials sacrificed their lives,
their fortunes and their sacred
honor have not failed us. We
will fail them unless out of this
troubled hour comes a re
surgence of the spirit of ‘76.
' An “Emily Post” of the
Twelfth century promulgat
ed these rules for table man
ners: Scratche not thy head
with thy fyngers when thou
arte at thy meate; nor spytte
thee over the table board; see
thou doest not this forget. Pick
not thy teeth with thy knyfe
nor thy fyngers ends, but take
a stick or some cleane thing,
then doe you not offende,

Have you lost faith in the
race? Maybe this incident will
revive it: A bus driver of the

reward.

Here Is the Latest News
j
about Chevrolet
f
Deliveries
Everybody from factory to dealer is doing everything
that can be done to speed deliveries to you
We have been informed by the Chevrolet Motor Division that
the past month has witnessed only a slight improvement in
the rate of production of new Chevrolet passenger cars. As
a result, shipments of new cars to dealers for delivery are
still far below the level we and the factory had hoped to
attain by this time. In fact, through August, Chevrolet’s
output of cars in 1946 was only 22.6% of the number turned
out during the corresponding period of 1941.
We know that Chevrolet is doing everything possible to
step up its production totals—to ship more and more cars to
us and to its thousands of other dealers throughout America
;;; and we know, too, that we are assured of getting our full
proportionate share of the current output and of future
production gains.
Disappointing as the total figures have been—and despite
Ihe fact that Chevrolet was out of production entirely during
the first three months of the year—it is nevertheless true
that Chevrolet led all other manufacturers in production of
passenger cars during June 1946, and has continued to main
tain its lead in total, production from that day to this.
We shall continue to make deliveries of new Chevrolets
to our customers just as fast as we receive them; we regret
delays as deeply as you do; we thank you for your friendly
patience and understanding; and we promise you a new high
motoring experience when you take delivery of your new
Chevrolet, giving BIG-CAR QUALITY AT LOWEST COST!
I
Keep Your
Present Car Alive
Meanwhile, may we suggest
that you safeguard your
transportation by bringing
your car to us for service now
and at regular intervals. Let
us help you to keep it in good
running condition—to main- {
tain its performance, appear- J
ance and resale value—until <
the day when your new Chev- ;
rolet comes along.
