Funday, where they enjoyed a visit
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry
Bucholds. The gentlemen are broth
ers. Mark Burton and wife were at Ne
braska City last Sunday evening,

also attended a show at the Overland
theatre.
Mr. and Mrs. A. A. McReynolds and

at the elevator.
driving an almost new car and pro
ceding with due caution over the slip
pery pavement, with fog freezing on
the windshield to cut down visibility.
Suddenly the car skidded, sliding to
the opposite side of the roadway into
the path of an oncoming car which
could neither stop nor veer its course.
As a result her car was caught and
rolled about half a block before the
two vehicles came to" a stop. The new
car of Mrs. Yeiser was badly wreck
ed, but Mrs. Yeiser was uninjured ex
cept for a few bruises and the little
girl received only a slight cut on her
forehead. It was indeed a fortunate
happenstance that neither she nor the
little girl were killed, for the car is
a mangled mass of steel apparently
worthless.

On October 31 cl last year, Henry Ford
announced fcis intention to build a million
Ford V-8s in 1935. We are pleased to re
port that this, goal was reached in exactly
ten months instead o! a full year.
One million cars and trucks is cm im
pressive totaL Eut figures by themselves
mean nothing. It is whet they represent
that counts. Selling a V-8 at a low price
has brought a new kind of automobile
within reach of the people. Producing it
has provided steady work for hundreds
of thousands of men in the Ford plants in
associated industries and on the farm.
These million Ford V-8 cars and trucks
have helped to make things better all
around. In the first ten months of 1935 the
Ford Motor Company paid out in the
United States alone. $140,119,328.00 in
wages and $523,111,389.00 for materials
