Freight Car Plows
Up Ground After
Derailment
A derailed freight car plowed
up the ground near the station
at Pembroke Monday night and
came to rest against a camp car
on a spur track in which a work
man was sleeping.
The sand-filled car, turned
loose from the track by a hot
box, loosened some ties between
the rails and pawed the ground
before, as if weary with such
goings-on, leaned gently up
against the camp car, knocking
over its steps and waking its
lone occupant.
Seaboard Air Line Railway of
ficials attributed the small
amount of damage done to the
quick action of Lonnie Butler of
Shuman’s Package Shop. As it
passed the establishment, Mr.
Butler saw the hot box and
chased the train until he could
flag the engineer to a halt. As
the engineer applied the brakes
the car jumped the rail, but had
been slowed down enough so that
most of its speed was lost. Other
wise, officials said, it would have
plowed on into the depot and the
camp car.
Seaboard Air Line officials
were high in their praise of Mr.
Butler and said that his action in
flagging the train was undoubted
ly the reason there was no great
er damage.
The incident happened at mid
night Monday night on train No.
81. A. I. Rhoden, station agent,
was notified and stayed with the
wreck crew until 5 o’clock Tues
day mprning.

DURING 1960 the Georgia Power Company
recorded a year of outstanding service to its
customers throughout the state.
More electricity was used by these custom
ers last year than ever before — some one
billion kilowatt-hours more than in 1959.
Residential customers accounted for a 10 per
cent increase in electric consumption, while
commercial and industrial uses of electricity
showed a gain of eight pel' cent.
Nearly 18,000 customers were added during
the year, bringing to approximately 718,000
the number now served.
To provide plenty of electricity for these
customers, about $541/2 million was invested
in new and expanded service facilities.
Our 1960 tax bill was more than S3O mil
lion. This represented 19 cents of every dollar
received in payment for electric service. This
money was paid to local, state and federal
governments and benefits you and all other
Georgia citizens.
The Georgia Power Company is proud to
supply the electric power needed for Geor
gia’s growth and progress, and pledges to
continue serving its customers well in 1961.

30,000 is the most famous num
ber of the year. It’s every ’6l
Ford owner’s license to save.
How can Ford do it? Conven
tional chassis lubrication fit
tings have been replaced with
metal plugs that help protect
each lubrication point against
abrasive mud, dirt and dust.
And then, for only about $4
and about 20minutesyour Ford
is ready for another 30,000!
This is just one of the many
ways the ’6l Ford is built to
take care of itself. Your Ford

HERE’S HOW THE ’6l FORI)
TAKES ( ARE OF ITSELF
Lubricates itself—You'll normally go 30,000 miles
between chassis lubrications (which cost only about
$4.00 and take about 20 minutes) because Ford
has replaced conventional grease bitings with a
sealed-in lubrication system.
Cleans its own oil—You'll go 4,000 miles between
oil changes because Ford's Full-Flow oil filter gives
you filtration through fibers . . . trapping more dirt
than any other type of filter made.
Adjusts its own brakes—New Truck Size brakes
adjust themselves— automatically.
Guards its own muffler—Ford mufflers are double
wrapped and aluminized to last three times as long
as ordinary mufflers.
Protects its own body—All vital underbody parts
are specially processed to resist rust and corrosion,
even to galvanizing the body panels beneath the
doors.
Takes care of its own finish—Just wash and clean
Ford's new Diamond Lustre Finish and it continues
to glisten like new. It never needs waxing.
