vance showings of its new fi-cy.inder

1 fifty additional advance showings in
( other important centers, company
I officials announced yesterday.
. Already additional showiAgs have
I been held at Philadelphia. Indinnapo-
j lis, Kansas City, Flint, Columbus and

When it was decided that the ud-
nce showings should take in more
territory so that no large center
‘uld be-overlooked prior to the na
n-wide exhibit December 29, Chev
rolet’s vast and efficient sales force
into immediate action. Mar
shalled by H. J. Klinglcr, general
sales manager of the company, and
captained by the regional sales i
agers. arrangements were culminated
almost overnight to bring about the
showings in Philadelphia, Cleveland,
Columbus, Indianapolin, Kansas City,
and Flint.
Cars from the Flint factory had to
l»e loaded .and rushed express. Deal-!
er organizations in each of these!
places, working smoothly in every J
instance, selected c« jitrally located
and popular exhibit places. Ne <u-
paper advertising was relied upon to
welcome the public. And the success
of the suddenly planned venture was
attested to by the mammoth crowds
which poured forth at all these points
to vie wthe handsome - new Chevro
let.
While the Chevrolet sales organ
ization, expecting its greatest year
in 1929, is busy with the advance
showings, and special dealer exhibit..,
the production forces of the company
are equally busy behind the scenes.
Fifteen mnmmoth Chevrolet fac
tories throughout the country are
working at top speed turning out
parLs and assembling these parts into
complete automobiles. Every thing
is being pushed forward at peak
capacity so that the thousands who
have already placed orders will not
be disappointed when deliveries be
gin January 1. As soon as the cars
come off the assembly lir» they are
distributed to the dealer organization
so that every Chevrolet dealer will
have cars on display and ready for
delivery to customers December 29.

No State is in u better condition
financially than Florida, destined to
be one of the greatest States in the
Union, in population and in money.
And now, after the boom, while
the foolish nurse their wounds, is
a good time to buy in Florida, if
you buy wisely.
Professors of Northwestern Uni
versity tell business men selecting 1 >
employe*; to pick out extra* erts and
avoid introverts.
The introvert is a dreamer, with
drawing within himself.
The extrov?r: is a back-slapp'er I
and go-getter.
Theodore Roosevelt, Mussolini,
William Howard Taft and Governor ^
Smith are of'lilt extrovert type. j
There is something of the intro
vert and extrovert in every man.
Charise Fourier told .about it more
than a hundred years ago, using the
words, “internal intuitional, and ex
ternal rational,” which are better.
Mis3 Rebecca West, forceful,
young British person who writes J
well, pities American women. Their
lives are trpgic, says she. Many of
them live parked high up in sky- \
scrapers, “where they can’t even
kefcp a dog.”
It’s sad not to keep a dog in a
skyscraper. But Miss West will
know when she gets married that a
baby or even a husband is a good
substitute for a dog.
She was the Fair Wife of

When she heard the Mate
say,
“Raise up the top sheet and
spanker.”
The poor woman did not know
the difference; she thought all
“Spankers" were the same.

The latest eruption of Mount
Etna “destroyed” ten thousand acres
of fertile Sicilian land.
Frost, rain and sunshine will crum
ble the lava to dust.
Weeds will grow, noil will form.
Earth worms will chew it up, and
those acres will be fertile again, and
Etna will be a dead volcano. ,
It v*U1 take some time, thousands
of centuries.
There is no hurry, for according
to Professor Milikan, men will live
