Reserve District No. 12 Woman’s Club Haa Fine Meeting, Tuesday Limited Time Only 10% Down As a result of record-breaking buying of new Dodge and Plymouth cars, our used-car department is overstocked. “Two things will help folks buy a car,” says Mr. Biegger, ■“'7 ” V . “Price and Terms.” Therefore we cut the prices and make the down payment very small. 10 per cent Down and drive home any car or truck you may select These plainly marked cars will be grabbed up quiçkly Come In Today!

She explained that the past presidents of the civic club have formed a club by themselves and it was this dub which presented the skit, “The Ashville Benevolent Society." The cast of characters included Mesdames Reidar Bugge, Smart, A. Y. Meyers, Uno Richter, H. D. Wilson, Walter Chiene, J. S. Forrester, John Cook, Benjamin Ostlind, Carl Larson and Wilson Kaufman. The farce was designed solely for the entertainment of the Coquille club and was most humor ous, keeping the audience in one round of applause. Especially funny was the way in which each member earned her dollar to put into the treasury for benevolence. Some of the means employed were amusing, others amazing. The cast with their droll costumes would do credit to any burlesque company on the road. The program was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Tea was served by Mrs. M. Earl Wilson, Mis. Louis Charneski, Mrs. J. Arthur Berg, Mi». R. B. Rogers, Mrs. O. C. Sanford, Mrs. L. H. Hazard and Mrs. L. W. Oddy. Mrs Hazard and Mrs Sanford presided at the beauti fully appointed tea table.

The connecting laterals snd service pipes to the property line will also all be in the best of shape by the time the new line is installed.
