Forgets The Wife
ELBERTON—One Elberton mot

his wife an incident that happened
during the recent pre-Christmas
shopping panic. His thoughts un
doubtedly centered on things Yule
tide, the man drove into a service
station with his wife and his moth

utes later with his mother but
us his mate, who had stepped
the rest, room. It was only after he
had driven through several blocks
of heavy traffic that he realized he
had forgotten his spouse, and the
poor husband was seen according to
an observer, getting an earful as he
drove away, again, this time quite
sure that the little woman was
along.

National Truck
Week January 8-13
[
The country-wide observance
Chevrolet, dealers and salesmen of
National Truck Week January
focuses attention on the
roles which commercial cars have
come to play in the American bus
iness picture. From the small retail
grocery to the manufacturer of lo
comotives, from coast to coast and
border to border, from the Iowa
farm to New York's docks, trucks
are called upon to transport a vast
share of the nation's products.
As the manufacturer of the broad
est range of commercial car equip
ment offered for 1940—56 models on
nine different wheelbase lengths—
Chevrolet is the supplier of trans
port equipment for widely-varying
fields. Some Chevrolet trucks, for
example, run on rails in boggy lands
where roads will not hold up. Oth
ers ride the rails as locomotives,
serving short- railway lines On
every highway. Chevrolet mainte
nance trucks bearing their special
equipment, serve the nation’s
motorists In the forests, on *t,he
farms, at the mines. Chevrolet
trucks wait for their loads. In the
cities, and between urban
refrigerator units rush their perish- |
able loads. To and from school, safe,
comfortable buses take their prec-j
ious cargo of youngsters. The range j
of the truck’s usefulness is virtually
unlimited.
