"Of course I run so easily and so quickly that I always think that If anything happens at all 1 will be al.l,. to run away from it if I don't like it."

'The Tractor will enable the farmer to work fewer hours in the day, giving him mere time to enjoy life. I believe the trac tor will make farming what it ought to be the most pleasant, the most healthful, the most profitable business on earth'." This tractor has done much very much in bringing true Mr. Ford's prophecy; for in it is a machine which has harnessed one of the most dependable, efficient, adaptable, economical sources of power in the world a machine that saves from thirty to fifty per cent of the farmer's time a machine which many farmers claim plows, harrows or drills as much ground in the same time as four, six or even eight horses. And more a machine that takes care of every power job on the farm. Call and let's talk it over, or telephone or drop us a card and we will bring the facts to you. T. H. POLLOCK AUTO GO.

"All citizen soldiers who are free to meet the special requirements im posed on members of the national guard should be encouraged to enter the force." the letter continued. "All young men after their voluntary mil itary training in the reserve officers' training corps or training camps should be encouraged to join a unit either of the national guard or the organized reserves. There should be no rivalry between the two forces but rather an interchange of cervice between them. "It is my desire that the officers detailed for service in the organisa tion and training of the national guard and the reserves should be se lected from the most efficient offi cers in our army. The corps area commander and all officers of this organization xvill he expected to takex an active interest in these forfes."
