"Going Places"
When the runner tucks the pigskin under his arm
and starts down the field with his interference close
to his side, you know he's "going places."
When you fill your tank with Dixie Gasoline, give
your motor the protection of Dixie Oil—then you
can be sure you're "going places."

Frederick Camburn was born in
Macon August 12, 1860, and passed
away October 19 at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Grant Allen, in Milan. He married Miss Araminl.a
Hendershot of Macon. Four children
were born to this union. Edith, the
youngest, died in infancy. His entire life was spent in this vicinity.
The funeral service was held Wed-'
nesday   at   3:30   at   the   Methodist j
church  in   Macon,   Rev.   Chapin    of
Milan officiating.   Burial was in the
Macon cemetery.
Mr. Camburn is survived by three
children, John and Frank of Saline
and Mrs. Grant Allen of Milan; a
sister, Mrs. Fred Smith of Ann Arbor; a brother, Lewis, who is spending the winter in the state of Washington; seven grandchildren, two
nieces and a nephew.
Among our letters Monday morning we found another from an old
friend that reads as follows:
