THE UNIVERSAL CAR Forecasting A Tremendous Spring Demand more Ford cars and trucks were pro duced last year than the previous year, an increase of over 50 per cent. In spite of this tremendous increase in production, it was impossible to meet delivery requirements during the spring and summer months when orders for 350,000 Ford Cars and Trucks could not be filled. This year winter buying for immediate delivery has been more active than ever before—and in addition 200,000 orders have already been booked through the Ford Weekly Purchase Plan for spring delivery. These facts clearly indicate that the demand during this spring and summer will be far greater than ever, and that orders should be placed immediately with Ford Dealers as a means of protection against delay in securing y6ur Ford Car or Truck or Fordson Tractor. Detroit, Michigan A small deposit down, with easy payments ol the balance arranged, or your enrollment under the Ford Weekly Purchase Plan,' will put your order on the preferred list ior spring delivery.

W HEN a line of travel on Luna ends in a small cross we may foretell or read of a voyage that has ended or will end in disappointment. A line of travel that ends In a square shows danger arising to the subject from his travels, hut he will he pro tected, since the square is called the “mark of preservation." Note whether the line of travel ends In an island, no matter how small. If it does, loss through the journey Is in dicated. When the line of travel reaches Ju piter, the ,journey will be very long. When it runs to the mount of Saturn or fate, some fatality will gov ern the entire journey. It will be subject.to good or evil fortune, as the other signs in the hand indicate. But when the travel line runs to the mount of the sun, or Apollo, under the ring linger, there may be expected, or there arc indicated, very favorable results from the journey, such as riches and fame. When the line of travel reaches the mount of Mercury, at the base of the little finger, sudden and unexpect ed wealth from the journey is seen. (© by Whoeler Syndicate.

But simply take for foul or fair The puzzling thing that tieth there, And if ’tis bad I ease its curse By thinking that it might be worse, And if tis good and true I sti Me down and thank the Lord for it.

People who have it on their old buildings buy it for their new ones; that is why our sales of this roofing are growing rapidly and steadily. See Philco Roofing or write for 1 a sample. Make comparisons with any roofing of equal weight and price and you will understand why we like to rec ommend it to those who look to us for advice about roofing. Thomson Hardware Co Thomson, Ga.

It may sound like a paradox, but in order to “break into the ’movies’" Miss Dwyer had first to break out of them. She was born in Brooklyn not far from a studio, tried her luck with that company and gpt only “bits." losing proved a short cut to leads in pictures.
