Sud( j i6 !y there came a whisper:
• You kt me know if you Ret to sleep
first, and if 1 Ret to sleep first, HI
tell you.” h was BHUe Bunny.
••All right," came back the answer,
in a whisper- "but I hope you get an
airship and I 8«t an automobile for
Christmas." Thia time it was Bobbie
I Bunny, who couldn’t seem to Ret his
eyes shut
All was very still again.
By and bye there came another
whisper. This time it was Billie: "I
wonder if we could see Santa Claus
if we peeped over the bannister?”
“Let’s try!” said Bobbie, almost]
out loud.
They tiptoed to the bannister and
iver. They could see noth-
Wng.
Suddenly Br’er Rabbit let out a
“CHERCHOOI’ that almost frijrhten-
ed them to death so they rushed back
to bed, lay very still and went to
sleep. Finally Mister Sunshiny Man
came over the SuRar Plum Mountain
and woke them up.
“Merry Christmas,” touted Bob
bie to Billie.
“Same to you and many of them,”
came back the answer.
Out of bed they bounced and shout"
ed RreetinRs to their father and
mother. Br’er Rabbit hopped out of
bed and put on his dressing Rown. He
was followed by his Rood wife who
started down the stairs in her night-,
cap and wrapper.
Br’er Rabbit pulled all the window [
shades and turned on the tiny elec
tric lights, on the tree.
“Whooppee!” shouted Billie. “I
Rot an automible.”
“Gc-c-e-e-e. Look at my airship, j
Watch me wind it up. 1 Rot a pop
Rt*n too.’’ Bobby’s joy way over flow-
inR.
Just then there was a TAP, TAP,
TAP! outside. Bobbie rushed to the
window and peeked out. “It’s Broth
er Bear pounding on a log to see if
there is any honey in it,” whispered
^he youngster.
WJ. “That’s fine,” said Mrs. Rabbit. “I
rfMve his stocking all ready fo- him.
ft has a jar of honey in it, too.”
/ By and bye there was a knock at
the door. "Come in!” shouted Br’er
Rabbit. “Just in time,” he added.
“Look for your stocking.”
"Just what I wanted!” exclaimed
Brother Bsar, when hr found the
“Our Christmas wi 1 be all the hap
pier because we shared it with you,”
said Mra Rabbit, as Bobbie hit one
of the electric bulbs with his pop gun.

The church has been in a great build
ing campaign for his entire pastorate,
in which plant and parsonage to
gether -with furnishings and paid the
bill practically as the work pro
gressed; has met all assessments and
outside calls in full and has raised
the pastor's salary each year. More

ing room of the new cathedral, an cn-
tir eset-up of the church year was

church was made up and the pastor's
salary was fixed at $4,200. A new
organist was elected to succeed Mrs.
j Ella Norris, who has held the place
since girlhood.
This is the fourth your of the pas- I
to rate of Rev. C. M. Lipham, who
returns to the church under the peti
tion of practically the entire county, i
“No matter where I hide,” sighed
the leopard, “I’m always spotted.”
One Sunday morn, the pastor
noticed a new member at church. He
went over to talk with th° newcomer.
“Well, well, I’m mighty glad to
see you, Rufus. Guess you-all hav
en’t been to church in a good while.’’
“I had to come. I need strength,”
answered Rufus. “You se , it’s this
way. I’se got a job whitewashin’ a
chicken coop and weedin’ a water
melon patch.”
“That’a the chap who bought the
Daily News.”
“Really! How much did he give for

Detroit, Dec. 22.—With only one
full week remaining of 1928, the
greatest your in its 16 years of exist
ence, Chevrolet Motor Company,
Filled by the largest volume demand
it has ever faced, is experiencing its
busiest December.
For the past seven days prepara
tions have been under way at al
sembly plants getting ready new
consignments for shipment to Chev-
f rolet’s more than 10,000 dealers. Next
Saturday dealers in all parts of the
country are scheduled to have 1929
cars on display, and on that day, too, |
deliveries art to begin. I
Another instance of Chet -olet j
December activity is to be revealed
during the forthcoming week when at
Kansas City a huge new assembly
plant is to go into operation. This
"'ill bring the number of Chevrolet
assembly plant? in this country up to
nine.
The Kansae City plant will have a
capacity of 350 cars a day, and will
eover 32 acres and wall include five
buiMinp.. The Fif |, cr B „ d} . C nrpo.
ration will occupy a plant covering
more than 120,000 square feet of
floor space in whieh to build their
famous bodies for Chevrolet closrd
The Kansas City opening signifies
added ^rength to the already enorm-
OUH P r °‘*uctive capacity, which en
abled Chevrolet during the present
year to manufacture over 1,000,000
fs than nine months t : me.
Since its mkl-Novomlv- snnsirw.
ment of .he six, Chevrolet’s 18*00:1
retail salesmen have been confronted
by an unprecedented influx of busi-
Every place t^e car has been
displayed at advance showring it has
been to the accompaniment of vast
crowds and a deluge of orders.
And now, with the cars actually in
the hands of dealers or scheduled to
be there before next week rlapse*,
the volume of orders is reported to
have assumed even larger propor
tions.
The new Ford
has a very simple and
effective
lubrication system
ft.
THE lubrication system for
the engine of the new Ford*
is as simple in principle as
water running down-kill.
A gear pump in the bot
tom of the oil pan raises the
oil to the valve chamber
reservoir. From here it
flows on to the main crank
shaft bearings and the front
camshaft bearing. Overflow
oil drops into the oil pan
tray and runs into troughs
through which the connect
ing rods pass.
As the ends of these rods
strike the oil they scoop up
a supply for the connecting
rod hearing. At the same
time they set up a fine spray
that lubricates the pistons
and other moving parts.
From the tray the oil runs
into the bottom of the pan,
and is again drawn up
through a fine mesh screen
and pumped to the valve
Thu system is so effective
that the five-qnart contents
of the oil pan pass through
the pump twice in every
mile when you are traveling
at only 30 miles an hour.
Yet there Is only one ^
As a matter of fact, the
lubrication system for the
new Ford is so simple in de- •
sign and so carefully made
that it requires practically
no service attention.
There is just one thing
for you to do, but it is a very
important thing . . . watch
the oil! Change the oil
every 500 miles and he sure
the indicator rod never reg
isters below low (L).
If the oil level is allowed
to fall below low, the supply
becomes insufficient to oil
all parts as they should be
oiled.
To insure best perform
ance it is also advisable to
have the chassis of your car
lubricated every 500 miles.
This has been made easy
in the new Ford through the
use of the high pressure
grease gun system.
Proper oiling and greas
ing mean so much to the life
of yonr car tkut they should
not be neglected or care
lessly done.
See your Ford dealer reg
ularly. He is especially well-
fitted to lubricate the new
^ Ford and be will do
a good, thorough
fiP Job at a fair price.
