Ginn Believes
A new Chevrolet that will

Mr. Ginn made his statement
following a meeting with compa
ny representatives in Atlanta
where 1953 plans were revealed to
an enthusiastic audience of deal
ers from this area. *
“When we were invited tq at
tend we were told that this
would be one of Chevrolet’s most
important business conferences,”
he continued. “This was con
clusively borne out by develop
ments, Not only were we shown,
the most exciting product in my
experience as a dealer, but the
speakers made clear that the
company through its newspaper
advertising and promotion would
give the model unprecedented
backing.”
Mr. Ginn said the program
should answer any doubts about
the future of business.
“A company with the market
ing knowledge of Chevrolet does
not reinvest the tremendous
capital required for a program of
this nature unless k i* firmly
convinced of sound sales pos
sibilities.” he pointed out. “It is
quite apparent from the product
that the largest automobile
! company in the world is anticipat
ing one of its biggest years in
11953.”

'Happy New Year'
1 May Be World's
Oldest Greeting
k
“Happy New ear. said in one
f way or another, is probably the I
• world’s oldest and most universal
1 holiday greeting.
The coming of the new year has
been marked and celebrated since!
I prehistoric time. It has not always
' been January 1, however, and
even now many peoples celebrate
some other date as New Year’s
, Day.
January 1, in fact, is an arbi
. trary date set by the Romans
before Julius Caesar established
, । the calendar that is the basis for
i dates used in most western
J countries. January 1, in ancient
Rome, marked the day that con
jsuls and other officals took office,
•; and until Caesar set things
i'straight it was sometimes juggled

benefit of one office holder or an
other.
An error in Caesar's calculation
(365-1/2 days) however, allowed
January 1 to creep away from its
original astronomical place, and
by 1582 when Pope Gregory XIII
instituted the reformed Julian
calendar in use today, spring s
first day had gained 14 days on
the stars.
Practical as it is, the Gregorian
calendar gained slow acceptance.
The British Empire, including its
American colony, did not adopt
it until 1752. Young George Wash
ington, who had turned 20 on
Februry 11, 1752, nad to wait
until February 22. 1753, to attain
his majority.
CLEAN NEST AND LITTER
Clean eggs cannot be produced
in the poultry houses that have
dirty nests or damp floor litter
according to poultry specialists
for the Agi^cultural Extension
Service, University of Georgia.
Shavings from sawmills make
good nest and floor litter. Other
materials such as sawdust, straw
and ground corn cobs may be
used.
