Bill Everett ' Bags 4-Pointer ATKINSON—Some folks seem to be followed by a jinx but not young Bill Everett. It’s lady luck herself who camps on his trail He not only drew number 999 when only 1,000 numbers were issued in the handing out of deer permits in Nebraska, but he got his deer, too—a four-pointer. Bill also drew a lucky number last year and went hunting, but the deer were uncooperative that time. He and his dad, Harley Everett, left at 4 a. m. Sunday, December 3, for Crawford. His father was to do the cooking and take care of the cabin while his son did the hunting. Incidently, father had his bid in for a permit too, both years, but wasn’t lucky. Mr. Everett was called home early Friday morning by the sud den illness of his brother, Russell. By this time they had seen a lot of deer, but Bill had not had what he would call a decent break so he decided to 9tay a little longer and the extra time paid off. He got his mule buck deer and when he took it to the station at Craw ford to have it tagged, the meas urements proved it was the near est to a perfect head that had been tagged there this year. The particular kind of deer he bagged is called a mule deer be cause of its very large ears. Young Everett arrived home about midnight Friday. He took the meat to a locker in O’Neill to be processed and Bill will send the head to Lincoln to be mount €Cl< One other Atkinson man, Wil lard Linville, drew a lucky per mit number but he hasn’t got his deer.

Atkinson Livestock Market Atkinson, Nebraska — Phone 5141 Make Christmas Safe With Precautions Against Fire MOTHERS, now busily scurrying about their holiday tasks, will do well to plan for their families not only the merriest Christinas ever—but the safest as well. Lest the serenity of the season of good will be inter rupted by flaming disaster, prepare now to safeguard your home against fire hazards. Of the many simple precautions that will stand you in good stead during the holidays, one of the most effec tive is the fire-proofing of children’s clothing. It’s especially important that this treatment be given costumes for Christmas pageants or any filmy garments that will be worn where there are candles or fireplaces. A flame-proofing rinse is easy to make, simple to apply. Just dip the garment to be treated in a solution of nine ounces of borax, four ounces of boric acid and one gallon of warm water. This rinse can be used safely on any thing that can be put in water; should be repeated after To make certain your rugs are protected from the ef fects of popping sparks from a fireplace, keep a metal screen in front of it whenever the logs are lighted. When buying strings of Christmas tree lights, check to make certain they have been approved by the hire Underwriters’ Laboratories. ' Remember that a few precautions may save the lives of your loved ones. This mother dips her child’s clothing in * simple, flame-proofing rinse of borax and boric acid dissolved in water as an added safeguaiu against holiday fires.

We can’t foretell the future — but we can tell you this right now: You’ll look a long way before you’ll find a car that offers as much for the money as you can get in a 1950 Buick. Close to half a million of these cars have been built and sold this year. Close to half a million people have checked their features and prices against the field—and decided they’d better buy Buick. As to prices—they start down below some sixes. And whether you price the Special, the SUPER or the Roadmaster, you’ll find, on a cents-per pound basis, that few other cars can touch them for value. And this is for sure 1 When it comes to perform ance—ride—the way they handle and hold the road —and thrifty use of fuel and oil —Buicks have never been finer. That’s another way of saying that coil springs on all four wheels—Dynaflow*—torque-tube drive — and Buick’s high-compression, high-economy Fireball power produce an out-of-this-world combination. So if you want your dollars to do extra duty— the time to act is now. Look at the price tags —look at the features — sample the power and thrill that you get for your money — and you’ll know what we mean. +ltynaflow l>rive u etandard on RoaomastxH, optional at extra ooet on SvrxK and SrxciAL modele. ____Brick* 1 \ ©£••2-0’4 \ ’*■ jss& \ \ :•**-*-.-_—l "'*w£2*\ \ aoDiis** $2,258 \ ‘2,892 SS-SST YOU* HY /rfii ftu’,tk SU -)".doot » , nQl.
