all things for’the best. Even in this

saw fit to transplant him in His

WILtYS ANNOUnCE
Tremendous Demand ; Permits Inj ;
crease in Production of' Overland
Champion and Willys-Knight Se-1
dan at Correspondingly Lower,
Lost. ■
No better 'indication of the in- ■
cearsed demand for Willys-Knight
and Overland closed cars during the i
Current wilier can be given than i
the announcement from Willys-Ov- !
erland headquarters that prices on I
two of its^ most p opular enclosed,
types.have been slashed as a result;
of a factory output in excess of ail,
original anticipations.
According the announcement the
price reduction affects the Overland
Champion model, which has been re- |
duced to $655 from $695, a cut of |
$40, while the' Willys-Knight stand
ard sedan has been reduced $100 to
$1695. All these are-Toledo -factory
prices.
Accompanying the announcement
is a brief statement from John. N. _
Willys, president of Willys-Overland
setting forth the reasons for this !
remarkable action: ;
“January and February produc- j
tion has exceeded all expectations.
During the first month of the new j
year we manufactured 22,048 cars
more than double the output of a
year ago. In February we maintain^;
ed an average shipping record t of
more than a thousand ears daily,

ri
FOR OVER 40 YEARS
closing* the month with total ship
ments of. 22,136.
“This remarkable increase in de
mand lias stepped up production to a
point where our production costs per
car have been lessened. In the case
of the Overland Champion, for ex
ample, we find that we are able to
maintain its position as me lowest
priced enclosed car on the- market,
with doors front and rear, because
of the tremendous demand that nas
e.isued since the original announce
ment of this model last Fall. We
have stepped up our schedule on
this model and even now are unable
to cope satisfactorily with our deal
er’s demands.”
Parallel conditions aie accounta
ble for the cut in price of the Wil
lys-Knight Sedan.
“During the current winter, .de
mand for dosed cars outstripped all
anticipations,” continues the state
ment. “In n 0 single ye :r ot the in
dustry has the sale of ail-weather
models advanced so rapidly as it has
during the past six months. Our
plants have been faiiiy swamper
with orders for this type. The re
sult has been increase in closed car
production, -w.ith a -proportionate de
crease in production costs, iir which
we are desirous of allowing the
- -^blfc to participete.”
jlfa h. Toledo $0
222% ezhs incrcr.sc makes this wonderful
low price possible! Now nearly every-'
one can afford to own this high quality
closed car with the engine that improves
with use. Drive it—you’ll never change
—Willys-Knight owners never do!

CARE NECESSARY IH ^
THERMIT OF MEASLES
There seems to be a pretty gen
eral epidemic ot measles prevailing;
it is distributed very generally over
the State.
The measles bug, or whatever it is,
has not been ‘"isolated” as the doc
tors call it, therefore^no remedy can
be offered as a cure, nor can a vac
cine be prepared to prevent one’s con
tracting it as has been done with
diphtheria, smallpox, typhoid and the
like. Until the laboratory worker
finds the germ and is able to grow
it, he cannot make a vaccine.
There are two distinct types of
measles, Red Measles and German
Measles; the Red is . much more
serious in all of ^ts symptoms, it is
self-limited and we have no specific
remedy to cut short the attack or to
abort it. The individual, coming down
with measles has several days of ill
ness more or less marked before the
eruption appears. In the very early
stages it is not likely contagious ex
cept from very close contact. If there
fore during an epidemic all children
are watched closely a spread of meas
les in a schodl can be avoided. The
first- rash, if, it can. be so called,
appears in the mouth and back, on the

On Monday, March -the 10, the
death angel visited’ our home and
bore the spirit of Hollis home to
await the resurrection morn. ,He
bore his illness with much 'patience
being confined to his bed but a few
days altho lie was sick for several
weeks. All that loving hands could
do to stay the cold hand of death
was done lrut. to no avail.
He was 27 years of age, just in
the bloom of life but God saw fit to
take him home, away from his wife
and children. Oh how’hard it seem
ed to have to give him up but we
know God knew best arid does, all
things well an^ we therefore, must
be submissive to his will being done,
not our own.
A precibus one from us is. gone,
X voic^ we loved is still
A place is vacant in our home
T^hich never can be filled.
’Tis hard to break the tender cord,
When love has bound the heart,
"Tis hard, so hard to speak th’words
“We must forever part.”
Farewell dear Hollis, but not forever.
There Will he a glorious dawn,
We shall meet 'to part no more -
On the resurrection morn.
He leaves to mourn their loss,
heart-broken wife, three > "mall chil
dren, his father arid mother, and
five brothers and sisters. His. re
mains were ffenderly- laid to rest at

without complications, and in three or
four days from the height of the erup
tion the patient is normal. The in
fecting agent is supposed to be thrown
off from the body in the secretions,
especially the nose and mouth, and
if these are properly taken care of It
is not likely that one will catch
measles from an individual. The ex
act time of infectlvity cannot be defi
nitely fixed; it is not likely to extend
over six ou eight days..
The two most serious complica
tions of measles are pneumonia and
diarrhoea. No one should think ol
trying' to go through a case of meas
les without the advice of a reputable
physician; he should be called early
to- fie sure as to the disease,-and their
he should stay in touch with the case
until it is out of danger and the
terminal clean-up'is had.
All eating and drinking vessels
should he kept separate and all cloths

for the nose and mouth and then im

There is no need of fumigation; a
thorough cleaning of the room, sun

with boiling of sheets, pillow cases
and clothing. Is all that is :
The very best of caVe and close atten
tion should be given to each case, it
