THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., JULY 25, 1924
Over Million Fords Retailed
From January 1 To July 1
Sales reports from the 34 Ameri
can branches of the Ford Motor
Company show that over a million
Ford cars and trucks were sold at
retail during the first six months of
1924. The actual figure is 1,036,-
978, which exceeds the total retail
sales for the same period in 1923 by
133,095, an average gain of 22,182
sales per month.
A comparison between Ford sales
in 1924 and 192.3 not only indicates
a remarkable increase in the coun
try’s buying power but also shows
that this growth continues month by
month. In every instance the
monthly sales Tn 1924 have shown
a substantial increase over the cor
responding month in 1923. In June
they reached 170,747 which was ap
proximately 10,000 ahead •of June
sales in the preceding year.
These figures are for retail sales
in the United States alone and do
not take into consideration the sales
made by foreign Ford branches and
associated companies, the majority
of which assemble cars from Amer
ican made parts.
Perhaps the most encouraging
sign of the times lies in the fact
that these sales have been spread
very evenly throughout the country
and indicate a general prosperity
that is not confined to any particular
section.

Chehaw, Ala., July 20, 1924.
Editors Sun,
Hartwell, Ga.
Sirs: —If space will permit won’t
you say for me that I have recently
been added to the staff of the sum
mer school lecturers of Tuskegee In
stitute where I have been pursuing
a special five weeks’ course for
Smith-Hughes teachers. This will
prevent my returning to Hartwell as
early as I have anticipated.
While in Atlanta I visited Spelman
College and found our teacher of
the secondary grades doing very
commendable work in her summer
course.
Trusting that both scholars and
parents are showing their apprecia
tion of their new school building by
doing the necessary little things
which in the long run are really the
things that count.
Appreciatively,
GEO. E. ARCHIBALD.

Negro Baby In Anderson Co.
Weighed 16 Pounds At Birth
(Anderson Daily Independent.)
Another unusual thing has happen
ed in Anderson county.
A baby weighing 16 pounds and
with two perfectly developed teeth
has been born to a negro family liv
ing at Storesville, on Rocky River.
The champion negro baby is a boy
and appears to be getting along nice
ly, according to information from its
home.
Anderson county doctors are show
ing considerable interest over this
baby for it is seldom that a newly
born baby weighs so much, and still
more unusual for one to have teeth
when born. The father and mother,
who are tenants on the farm of John
E. Wofford, of Starr, are very proud
of their “little” baby and say they
will have to take “good care” of him.
When the weight of this boy was
circulated about the community in
which it was born, few believed the
report, but after visiting the home
and seeing they came away believ
ing. Its color proves it has African
blood flowing in its veins, and Tom
Gailliard, the father of the baby,
is confident it will some day be a
man like him.
Several doctors who have heard
the report and many others who havg
seen the baby say it is a rare speci
men. The largest baby ever born
in Anderson, according to one well
known physician, weighed* 13 pounds,
three less than the Gailliard boy.
WHAT IS A FARMER’S TIME
WORTH?
How Labor Saving Means Money
Saving.
One of the newest products of
inventive skill to attract the farm
er is the independent electric plant,
a plant that will furnish electric
lights about the farm home and
electric power for small jobs like
operating churns, cream separators,
horse clippers, fanning mills, grind
stones, washing machines, also pump
the water, and many other time and
labor savers, all of which add to the
value of the farmer’s time.
It is not uncommon, say certain
authorities, to find farmers who have
saved from twenty or thirty hours a
week by having electricity pump the
water an doperate various small ma
chines.
So far the development of farm
lighting plants has progressed to
the extent that it is possible to se
cure compact lighting units where
the necessary gas engine and electric
generator are built upon the main
shaft, direct-connected with the gas
engine, air-cooled and operating
most successfully on kerosene as a
fuel.
o
If the first baby jolts the scales
at nine pounds it doesn’t matter what
the second one weighs.

New Low Prices on
Goodyear “Supertwist” Balloons
Balloon Tires ride smoother—save you and your
car —because they are larger and do not need to
be pumped up so hard.
They flex and bend, give and take, and absorb
the bumps.
But this flexing is hard on ordinarv tires. Good'
year has recently developed a new cord fabric
called Supertuist. It stretches about twice as far
as ordinary cord. It was especially developed for
Balloon Tires and is found only in Goodyear
Balloon Tires. Supertuist is your assurance of
long wear and freedom from trouble.
At our new low prices we can put Goodyear
Supertuist Balloon Tires on your car at less than
you’ve been paying for the regular size tires now
on your car.
See us today and experience the real thrill of
Goodyear Balloons on your car.
