The corkscrew is one of the count
less applications of the principle of
the screw invented by Archimedes .
It probably came into use around
the fifteenth century at which time
cork was first used to make bottle
stoppers. Just as nothing has come
along to replace the cork itself in
sealing bottles of fine wine, the
corkscrew remains a most useful
tool for uncapping ('are vintages.
Almost as old as newspapers them
selves, the Want Ad too has en
dured as an irreplaceable means
of person-to-person communication ,
and takes its place among those
useful articles which , like the cork
screw, perform their useful function
through the centuries.
Want Ads are there for you to use
whenever the-need arises. If you
are not a Want Ad user, there
will never be a belter time to start.
A JOURNAL WANT AD
WILL WORK FOR YOU
TO PLACE YOUR AD, DIAL 987 -1823
.AND ASK FOR AN AD-VISOR.
