-DENTIST-
Over Gross Hardware Stone
SAXMB, MICH.
The fact that the great majority of
•motor car o.vners—b:th . ■mista and
women—are mechanically minded,
was conclusively demonstrated this
■week when the .new Ford V-8 cylinder, 112-ini3h wheelfoase motor cars
we:© first placed on. display in the
showrooms of tha .Wiedman Auto Co.,
Fori dealers here in Saline.
The 75-horsepower V-8 cylinder engine., with its new aluminum, cylinder
headls and rubber .mounting's, the new
double-channel, doable-drop X-type
frame, newly designed head and cowl
lamps, bumpers and. horn, skirted
front fenders, smalleir wheel's and
larger tires appeared, to attract fully
as much attention asi 'the new bodies
with their flowing lines, distinctively
modern, design and luxurious interior
appointments.
The new V-8 ds the fastest and
most powerful car smse Henry Ford
launched into volume production of
motor cars. It is exceedingly flexible
in traffic and capable of a sustained,'
speed of 80 miles an hour on. the
open road.
The secret of its power and alertness lies in the improved V-8 engine
and its new cylinder head design. -Because aluminum, dissipates heat more
rapidly, the all-alumincm- cylinder
head permits unusually high compression pressure which results in. increased speed, power and smoothness, unusual acceleration and fuel,
economv.
The new frame is also one of the
unusual features of the car. It consists of four channel metnibera. J-he
two members which form, the "Ji-
brace being continued, inside and almost td.the ends Qi 'the B^in channels, thus1 providing a structure" 'of
great rigidity. Whete tho X-chan-
hels are brought together they are
joined by a semi-circular crossmem-
ber on which ths. rear end of the
power plant rests in. a circular rub-
beer mounting.
Still another ..feature of the new
chassis, although not visible, to the
visitors, is the new 'three-quarter
floating rear axle, With its straddle
mounted pinion drive. Tha pinion is
mounted in * a double taper roller
thrust bearing at the front and. a
straight radial roller bearing at the
rear. This design permits maintaining permanent alignment of the pinion with the ring gear under all
driving conditions and "results in extremely quiet axle operation.
The wheels are, 17 inches in diameter and "of the " Ford welded steel
spoke type-." Tires are of 5.50 inches-
section. The' frame is cushioned, by
transverse cantilever springs and
four Houdaille double-acting hydraulic shock absorbers which aire adjusted both automata..;: ally and thermostatically for 'every variation in
weather or road "surface condition.

BY NICODEMUS •
Saline finally did awaken to the
feet that she's got a real basketball
team. WCth the team, and support
we"'re now getting we certainly
ought to continue' in victory.
Those of you who missed that
Milan game Friday, oniissed one of
the ^hardest fought icontests you'll
ever see.
Our iboys did show up Milan, and
a plenty, too. Mi an never did have
even a one-point lead in either struggle. In facib, the score was never
■tied..
■I suppose! all of you have heard of
that wonderful Milan support. Well,
you should' have been at that gams.
I don't know whether they were
over-confident, or expected to lose,
•but they didn't put out near the
crowd we do at our local games. The
Saline turnout ■really did their stiKf!
J ow ths coys are all set for the
district championship1—and we're going .to get it!
You know, a pcor old man drifted
into Saline the other day, cold and.
hungry—in fact, just down and out.
He hadn't eaten for two" days. He
went ito one of our losal filling stations, "just to bum: a bite." The pio-
pritor of the place, being very kind,
set about to fix the. old gent a m.oal.
While she was waiting for the- mieaC
to fry she gave the visitor a cooky-
W&l now, do youi know, that when
.the "grub""was all cooked that .poor
old man just couldn't eat it? No" sir,
that big delicious cooky just filled
him right up to the- neck. Now, if
you. wojJd like a dozen or so of
those delicious, home made cookies,
just drop into Tufcaugh'-s Dixie Service, any time.
A scream, a ghost, thunder, lightning, wind, rain. (Mystery, mystery,
mystery, and a bit more mystery,
Aa^ if that isn't sufficient, we'll add
another mystery, '
If you1 like S. hair-raising, back-
scratching mystery .'chiller, don't
mliss that St. Paul's play tonight.
It's going to, to hew in the opera
house' tonight. That's tjust tha place
for such a thriller. It's different, yes
very different. Entirely a new sort
of production to Saline, -aridl you'll
like it. I know you'"-will. There's
something fascinating about that
word, mystery, and when I say the
play isi a mystei-y, I mean mystery*!
Talk a>bout fools, I've, sure got a
pair of theimi for you. A couple of
ifellows got asbestos suits and. were
lowered to the boiling'Java" of an
active volcano. The ithing (blew them-
up a couple) of times, .but they went
back again and took some pictures;
andi we wonden why they^ build "nu.t"
houses. . - -'•*' -,"".
Some people- have .att^'the'luck. '-'I
know of^a fellow who .gob-the* "good-"
est" job .you ever saw—in a* great big
apartment house. This" is certainly a
wonderful house, too. A-large "court,
a hundred or so showers, large'
workshop, - six-foot walls and iron
gates. Yes sir, they've even got
guards around- 'the. wall.- This-lucky
young fellow is. getting*-his board and
room and doesn't even have to-work.
Isn't that a real job?.- -I'm" sure" all
bf you would'like one just like it."
Next week I'll tell. you how you
can get a contract for--one: for life.
. I met a lady several years ago. It
is all right—she was married. Somehow .the. conversation• led to Negro
slavery and that eventually led to"
the southern people. She said, she"
had just come from a 'visit* in the
south. ...She was a great walker. One
day she took a 25-mile hike, way into
the back woods-. She came to an old
cabin. In front of at sat..a little* oldi
man smoking a corncob pipe.- He invited her to sit down, and toeing very
tired, she did.. -_
This old man was very' interested
in history. He started with the Civil
war. "Yas sor, boy that? shore' was
some fight. By gol, you know if
them, fellas had a took -my advice
we'd! shore, won that war.- Yas sor,
we shore would. Yas, and that there
Spanish fight. By golly, I says 'to
my wife one day, says I, Sadie, if my
old1 rheumatism, warn't so bad I'd go
down thar an' lick them greasers-
Oh, would I lick '-em!" -Well, that
naturally led on to the World war.
"Yas sor, them Yanks is a dOin' a
real job a fighit'n'; couldn't do better
myself. Them Yanks will whip those
"housers" yet!
.That, folks, is the honest truth. It
happened, just two years ago. That
old man. didn't even know ths war
was over. He probably didn't hear
about the war until 1926. It doesn't
seemi possible that in this day and
age., with all our. newspapers, magazines and other means of communication any person could be so far behind the march of events. I guess
there is a good d'eal in this world we
do .""ot understand1.

Due to serious conditions faced by
the Guardian group of banks, locatei'
in Detroit and imost of the larger
cities in the state, Governor Cam-
stock Tuesday morning ord-Med all-
banks in Qlii:higan to close for a period of .eight days. The situation has
nothing to do with the smaller tanks,
all of which' are admittedly in gcod
shape. If conditions .efcar in Dcrroi-
before the eight, days are up it is
likely all banks will be allowed to reopen sooner.
•The local S.ervice Bureau, to meet
the emisigieacy, has established a .fund
to facilitate making change, which
will -be a great convenience until
s.ch time as tlie Ibsnks are again
permitted to open. This fund Is in
charge of Mirs. Hammond' in the Service Bureau "office and is for the accommodation of the public as a
whole. ^.
Coming unexpected^*-, the closing:
of the banks has placed many people
in rather straightened circumstances,

pockets. The father-son banquets
have been called off until further notice.

"Feast of Reason and Flow of Soul"
Marked Assembly at The Tavern
Last Thursday,
ftotarians had a fine time last
Thursday, when they celebrated the
fourth birthday anniversary of tbe
founding of the organization here.
Several members of the Ypsilanti
cluib which stand! as god-fathers of
the local group, were present to add
their bit to the festivities.
(Past presidents cf the ISaline club,
,Dr. C. O.^Woodbride, Dr. J. B. Wallace and E: F. Henne, and President
Curtiss review-id! some of the worthy
while things that have been accomp-
lishd during the past four years. All
of the gentlemen fromi Ypsilanti .were
given an opportunity to tell ius nice
things .about the cli;iv> here, and. Mr.
Furgeson gave a splendid address on
the effect the depression has had on
the ethics of trade relations.,' He
tc-ld how affairs- haye^cume to such
a pass that merchants and manufacturers are even selling at a loss
in order to keep .clerks and workers
employed and their institutions from
collapsing, thus hurrying the very
catastrophe they are 'trying to avoid.
He maintained that every manufacturer, every business andi professional miari, is entitled to and. should be
encouraged, .by the public, to derive
a fair profit. That only in this way
can prosperity be. .brought back to
the country and' chaos sidetracked./

FARM HOUSE IS
DAMAGED BY FD2E
! The Independent basketball teams
played two games apiece last week.
On Tuesday night they 'travielcd to
Chelsea, where both Saline teams
were defeated, by inferior teams from
St Mary's church. A very slippery
court and the indifferent playing of
practically all the Saline boys was
enough to spell defeat'. The second
team was beaten, by a score of 18. to
13 and the first team score was 30
to 25.
On the following night an entirely
different brand of -ball was shown.
iWhile the second team was beaten,
26 to 21, the first team cams through
with a thriller and beat Vandeicook
Lake by a score of 38 to 36. Keubler
on the second, team played like one
possessed, anid if he would have had
a little more support -the story would
have had a different ending. He scored from the field six times to 'lead
the attack with 12 points.. Huntoon
was high for -"Vandercook "Lake with
nine.
Al. S**hmid played a fine game on
the first tsam and' .matched Keubler's
12 points. The game was close,
throughout, the fishermen being all
■Saline could safely handle. fTownley
led the. (Lakers' attack andi matched
Schmid's score point for point-
- So far the first team has won
sv-v<-*n -md . lost four games. They
have scoreS a total of 352 points to
324 for their opponents.
I They will enter a tournament next
month in Ypsilanti and are to be
seriously reckoned with.

SERVICE AND' QUALITY "Hours 9-12—1-5 Dr. R. G. Sigler, D. D. S* -DENTIST- Over Gross Hardware Stone SAXMB, MICH. The fact that the great majority of •motor car o.vners—b:th . ■mista and women—are mechanically minded, was conclusively demonstrated this ■week when the .new Ford V-8 cylinder, 112-ini3h wheelfoase motor cars we:© first placed on. display in the showrooms of tha .Wiedman Auto Co., Fori dealers here in Saline. The 75-horsepower V-8 cylinder engine., with its new aluminum, cylinder headls and rubber .mounting's, the new double-channel, doable-drop X-type frame, newly designed head and cowl lamps, bumpers and. horn, skirted front fenders, smalleir wheel's and larger tires appeared, to attract fully as much attention asi 'the new bodies with their flowing lines, distinctively modern, design and luxurious interior appointments. The new V-8 ds the fastest and most powerful car smse Henry Ford launched into volume production of motor cars. It is exceedingly flexible in traffic and capable of a sustained,' speed of 80 miles an hour on. the open road. The secret of its power and alertness lies in the improved V-8 engine and its new cylinder head design. -Because aluminum, dissipates heat more rapidly, the all-alumincm- cylinder head permits unusually high compression pressure which results in. increased speed, power and smoothness, unusual acceleration and fuel, economv. The new frame is also one of the unusual features of the car. It consists of four channel metnibera. J-he two members which form, the "Ji- brace being continued, inside and almost td.the ends Qi 'the B^in channels, thus1 providing a structure" 'of great rigidity. Whete tho X-chan- hels are brought together they are joined by a semi-circular crossmem- ber on which ths. rear end of the power plant rests in. a circular rub- beer mounting. Still another ..feature of the new chassis, although not visible, to the visitors, is the new 'three-quarter floating rear axle, With its straddle mounted pinion drive. Tha pinion is mounted in * a double taper roller thrust bearing at the front and. a straight radial roller bearing at the rear. This design permits maintaining permanent alignment of the pinion with the ring gear under all driving conditions and "results in extremely quiet axle operation. The wheels are, 17 inches in diameter and "of the " Ford welded steel spoke type-." Tires are of 5.50 inches- section. The' frame is cushioned, by transverse cantilever springs and four Houdaille double-acting hydraulic shock absorbers which aire adjusted both automata..;: ally and thermostatically for 'every variation in weather or road "surface condition. .-_. Saline Mercantile Co. Holds Annual Meeting New D'Tectors Elected;.8% Dividend Paid; Motion Pictures Are Shown. The annual meeting' of the Saline Mercantile Company was held last Thursday afternoon at .the opera house. Motion pictures provided the entertainment for the occasion. The new directors elected for 1933 are; F. R. Clemienlts, Alfred Hertler, Herman Gensley, Arthur .Heininger, all 're-elected, and Andrew Garbach, Fred Finkbsiner and John 'P. Wede- meyer are the new directors. The directors of 1932 voted to pay a three per cent dividend per share, i which was sent to the stockholders along with 'the notice of the meeting. .The directors will hold a meeting' soon to appoint new officers of the organization. — Sad Death of Former Saline Young Woman Mrs. H. Albert Wenk of Ann Arbor Leaves Husband and Five Children to- Mourn. "Mirs. H. Albert Wenk, 39, of 118 Kenwood avenue, Ann Arbor, passed away Sunday in a hospital in that city. She was a member of Zion Lutheran church, the Ladies' Aid Society, Order of 'the Eastern. Star, and- daughters of Mokanna. \ Besides her husband, she is survived by four sons, Herbert, Glenn Elwyn , and Carl; Ann Arbor, and •Harold of Detroit; a daughter, Cor- inne, of Ann Arbor; her -mother, Mrs. Caroline Rentschler, and a sister, Mrs. Arthur' Heininger, of Saline. Funeral services were held1 at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Rev. E. C- Stellhorn officiating. Burial was in Forest Hill cemetery. AROUND THE TOWN j BY NICODEMUS • Saline finally did awaken to the feet that she's got a real basketball team. WCth the team, and support we"'re now getting we certainly ought to continue' in victory. Those of you who missed that Milan game Friday, oniissed one of the ^hardest fought icontests you'll ever see. Our iboys did show up Milan, and a plenty, too. Mi an never did have even a one-point lead in either struggle. In facib, the score was never ■tied.. ■I suppose! all of you have heard of that wonderful Milan support. Well, you should' have been at that gams. I don't know whether they were over-confident, or expected to lose, •but they didn't put out near the crowd we do at our local games. The Saline turnout ■really did their stiKf! J ow ths coys are all set for the district championship1—and we're going .to get it! You know, a pcor old man drifted into Saline the other day, cold and. hungry—in fact, just down and out. He hadn't eaten for two" days. He went ito one of our losal filling stations, "just to bum: a bite." The pio- pritor of the place, being very kind, set about to fix the. old gent a m.oal. While she was waiting for the- mieaC to fry she gave the visitor a cooky- W&l now, do youi know, that when .the "grub""was all cooked that .poor old man just couldn't eat it? No" sir, that big delicious cooky just filled him right up to the- neck. Now, if you. wojJd like a dozen or so of those delicious, home made cookies, just drop into Tufcaugh'-s Dixie Service, any time. A scream, a ghost, thunder, lightning, wind, rain. (Mystery, mystery, mystery, and a bit more mystery, Aa^ if that isn't sufficient, we'll add another mystery, ' If you1 like S. hair-raising, back- scratching mystery .'chiller, don't mliss that St. Paul's play tonight. It's going to, to hew in the opera house' tonight. That's tjust tha place for such a thriller. It's different, yes very different. Entirely a new sort of production to Saline, -aridl you'll like it. I know you'"-will. There's something fascinating about that word, mystery, and when I say the play isi a mystei-y, I mean mystery*! Talk a>bout fools, I've, sure got a pair of theimi for you. A couple of ifellows got asbestos suits and. were lowered to the boiling'Java" of an active volcano. The ithing (blew them- up a couple) of times, .but they went back again and took some pictures; andi we wonden why they^ build "nu.t" houses. . - -'•*' -"". Some people- have .att^'the'luck. '-'I know of^a fellow who .gob-the* "good-" est" job .you ever saw—in a* great big apartment house. This" is certainly a wonderful house, too. A-large "court, a hundred or so showers, large' workshop, - six-foot walls and iron gates. Yes sir, they've even got guards around- 'the. wall.- This-lucky young fellow is. getting*-his board and room and doesn't even have to-work. Isn't that a real job?.- -I'm" sure" all bf you would'like one just like it." Next week I'll tell. you how you can get a contract for--one: for life. . I met a lady several years ago. It is all right—she was married. Somehow .the. conversation• led to Negro slavery and that eventually led to" the southern people. She said, she" had just come from a 'visit* in the south. ...She was a great walker. One day she took a 25-mile hike, way into the back woods-. She came to an old cabin. In front of at sat..a little* oldi man smoking a corncob pipe.- He invited her to sit down, and toeing very tired, she did.. -_ This old man was very' interested in history. He started with the Civil war. "Yas sor, boy that? shore' was some fight. By gol, you know if them, fellas had a took -my advice we'd! shore, won that war.- Yas sor, we shore would. Yas, and that there Spanish fight. By golly, I says 'to my wife one day, says I, Sadie, if my old1 rheumatism, warn't so bad I'd go down thar an' lick them greasers- Oh, would I lick '-em!" -Well, that naturally led on to the World war. "Yas sor, them Yanks is a dOin' a real job a fighit'n'; couldn't do better myself. Them Yanks will whip those "housers" yet! .That, folks, is the honest truth. It happened, just two years ago. That old man. didn't even know ths war was over. He probably didn't hear about the war until 1926. It doesn't seemi possible that in this day and age., with all our. newspapers, magazines and other means of communication any person could be so far behind the march of events. I guess there is a good d'eal in this world we do .""ot understand1. The Trinity Lutheran church is ro,Tv.m |
