The news has been received in
this city of the death at his farm
home east of Elmwood of A. J. Box,
for many years a well known resi
dent of that section of Cass county.
The deceased has lived in this
county for many years and was a
gentleman held in the highest es
teem by a very large circle of friends
and associates in the community
where he has so long resided.
Mr. Box was particularly active
in the political life of his community
and was for many years one of the
Cass County Achievement Day.
Cass county farm women celebrat
ed the completion of their conven
ient kitchens project with an
achievement day last Thursday in
the Congregational church in Weep
ing Water. Ten clubs with 152 com
pleting members have taken thi3
work, under Miss Muriel Smith of the
agricultural extension service. The
snow kept the attendance down but
those who came enjoyed a mighty
good community dinner and then an
afternoon program full of pep and
enthusiasm.
Mrs. Edward Dowler, who has been
a leader of Liberty Union club pre
sided at the program. She introduced
Mrs. Nelson Berger, who briefly re
viewed the women's extension pro
jects that have been completed in
the county since 1921 and welcomed
the visitors to Wee-Dine Water and
the achievement day.
j i Officers of each club reported the
work completed, the appreciation of
the members, and the choice for next
year. Miss Smith was introduced anu
she in turn called the two leaders
of each club to the front of the room
so the people could fully appreciate
them and the outstanding work they
have done.
Cass county holds the record in
the state in Miss Smith's project for
the number of local achievement
days held, she says. Nine of the ten
clubs have had this day in their
home communities and 71 S people
have learned what the ladies of their
neighborhoods have adopted, over
1,200 new, easier, and quicker ways
and means of doing the farm kitchen
work, which was sometimes thought
of as drudgery. House Keepers
Union leads with 24 8 of these prac
tices but Triangle club has the larg
est number, per member 14. These
totals have been made by wonderful
leadership on the part of the. ladies
listed below who have met each
month with Miss Smith and then
taken the lessons she gave back to
the members of their respective
clubs.

a loyal and hard working member
of his political party. He was a

years ago on the democratic ticket,
but was defeated.
In the death of this excellent citi
zen the community has had a dis
tinct loss and to the family of the
departed the deep sympathy of the
host of friends will go out.
The funeral of Mr. Box will take
place at the Christian church in Elm

.Repair Mis
A small repair often costs as much as a
barrel of motor oil. And a barrel of motor
oil, properly used, does more to keep down
repair costs and keep up the resale value
of a passenger car, truck or tractor than
any other single thing.
Half a billion dollars for parts and repairs
over a ten year period fifty million dol
lars a year is the estimated cost of careless
lub rication that American motorists pay.
The remedy is simple oil of correct body
to suit the clearances in cylinders and
bearings, oil that is always reasonably
clean and free from grit. If motorists
would use high quality motor oil of the
correct grade and renew it after every 500
miles of operation, there would be a re
volutionary reduction in motor repair
bills. Motors would last longer. They
would stay powerful and get more miles
and more power out of every gallon of
gasoline.
Start right now. Consult the Polarine
Chart and fill your crankcase with the
proper grade of motor oil-r-one of the Six
Grades of Polarine Light, Medium,
Heacy, Special Heavy, Extra Heavy and
a special grade for Ford trucks and cars
