“MARCHING TO ZION”
OUR NEW SONG BOOK FOR 1922
New Type of Railroad Snow Plow
Have two 2-ton Dear
born Trucks, which en
ables us to move your
goods in short time.
Marching TO Zion, our new song book for71922, is the best all-purpose gospel song
book we have ever published.' This new book contains 256 pages'of the best words and music of a prac
tical and up-to-date character that the widest experience and most thorough scholarship could prepare.
The editors, associate authors, and special contributors, to the number of more than sixty, are the lead
ing musicians, teachers and composers of the Southern states, and all have contributed of their best for
the enrichment of the contents of this very superior book for popular use, and while our books for the
past half-dozen years have been especially successful, we believe MARCHING TO ZlON will prove even
more popular than the most successful of these. ►
The prices of this new book are: Special Limp: 40 cents a copy, $4.60 a dozen, $9.20 for 25,
postpaid. By Express, charges not prepaid, $8.50 for 25, $16.50 for 50, $31.50 for 100. Cloth
Boards: 50 cents a copy, $5.80 a dozen, $11.60 for 25, postpaid. By Express, charges not prepaid,
$10.75 for 25, $21.00 for 50, $40.00 for 100, and while no reduction can be made for
advance orders for single copies, a reduction of two cents a copy will be made on all orders for two
or more copies that may be received by us before December 25th, 1921, provided cash in full accom
panies the order. This rule of cash with order must be strictly complied with if this reduction of two
cents a copy is to be made, no matter who you are. This reduction will apply to all alike, whether
retail or wholesale. The teachers’ wholesale prices will be the same as the present wholesale prices of
Highway of Song and Praise to Him, and the reduction of two cents a copy from these prices will be
made to all active singing school teachers. Associate authors and special contributors will be given
this reduction from their contract prices for all the advance orders they may send us accompanied with
payment in full. They should all remember that postage for mail orders must be added to the contract
price, less the two cents a copy for their orders which may be received before Dec. 25th of this year.
Unless you have arrangements made with us to accept your personal checks do not stend your re
mittances in that way. The best way to remit is by Postoffice money order, as this is absolutely safe.

There are some other things, too, in wmcn juu van an =
the mail service and in saving our great Government millions of dollars a
vear that is now wasted because of our carelessness—yours and mine.
Every day that you drop a letter in the mail box 40,000,000 other letters
are already pushing and jamming through the postal machinery. One letter a
day for each family of five persons in the United States is given to Uncle
Sam to deliver.
When you send a parcel to the post office for mailing any day there are
about S,000,000 other parcels ahead of yours passing through the postal hopper.
This is’in ordinary days; at Christmas it is multiplied many times.
One family in about every ten puts a badly addressed letter in the mail
every day This mixes up over 2,000,000 half addressed letters with the 20,-
000,000 fully addressed letters. That means -that the fully addressed letters
must wait on the slow moving poorly addressed letters just like the larger boys
and girls are delayed by a bunch of “bad kids” tagging along.
You boys and girls can help the Postal Service and save your father some
money because he has to help pay the cost of searching addresses on letters
and parcels sent out by this one careless and thoughtless family in every ten.
First'find out if your family is the careless one, then bear in mind that your
letters must be handled by skilled mail distributors standing in post offices
and on swaying postal cars of a mile-a-minute mail trains, often under poor
'■ Tbe address on every letter, card, or package must be correct, complete,, and
legible, including the house number and name of street, and the “From” ad
dress should be in. the upper left-hand comer so that the mail will be returned
to you in case it is not delivered. Do not abbreviate names of States, because
so many look alike when abbreviated.
Put the proper amount of postage oil your letters and wrap the parcels care
fully. Avoid fancy writing, which causes post-office clerks and letter carriers
.to stop and study, and thus lose time. Make the address plain and easily read,
and always use pen abd ink or twpewriter and light-colored envelopes, so as
to save the eyes of the post-office clerks. Do not use envelopes of unusual size.
The little ones that are do frequently used for cards and notes at Christmas and
other holiday times cause an untold amount of trouble and labor, as- they will
not fit our cancelling machines and must therefore be canceled by hand. Be
cause of their size and tendency to slip out of a package, these small en
velopes are more likely to be overlooked or lost.
Mail your letters and packages early in the day, because this avoids over
loading and delaying mail at the end of the day.
Your local postmaster and your teachers will tell you more about the Postal
Service.
Do these things, and you will win the grateful appreciation of the people in
your post office and especially of -
Your Postmaster General, WILL H. HAYS.
the Federal Judges in Toledo and New Jersey appointed a receiver for
the Willys Corporation. Undoubtedly such word has already reached
your town and posibly may have alarmed you, but, we want to point
out very particularly that this Willys Corporation, of Elizabeth, N. J.,
and the Willys-Overland Company are two very separate and distinct
companies, to the point where the latter company is in no way affected
by these legal proceedings.
The indiscriminating public, however, will not attempt to get the
differences in our names and in anticipation of any ugly rumors get
ting started, we want you to see that the people are correctly informed
and all tales to the contrary are nailed right at the start.
Business with the Willys-Overland Company is good. In September
we built and sold more automobiles than in any September in five
years.* In October, we built and sold more automobiles than in any
October in our history, and November bids fair to be the best winter
month in our history. Isn’t this, therefore, proof that the Willys-
Overland Company, the company that you represent, is sitting in a
very nice position?
But, we'are counting on you to get across to the public in your com
munity that we are not connected with the Willys Corporation and
that our finances are in no way affected.
Yours truly,
WILLYS-OVERLAND, INC.
