THE CHAMPION OF KILLJOYS
That perpetual pest—the reformer
who, in the interests of truth, prea
ches that there is no Santa Claus—is
again with us. It is soothing to his
shrunken soul to preach the belief
that children who are taught that
there is a Santa Claus will, when
they grow up suspect their parents
of being inherently untruthful. Now
wouldn’t that be just awful? We
wonder if there is in all the Christ
ian world a person who loves his
parents less becasse they taught him
and proved to him beyond all doubt
that there really is a Santa Claus.
To many of us the most cherished
memory pictures of life are assoeiat
ed with hanging stockings about the
old fireplace at Christmas lime in
full faith that after we as youngsters
had drifted into slumber old Santa
would come.
What matters that father and
mother remained up later than us
ual on Christmas eve. They—God
bless them—were hut waiting to let
him in.
Confusion to the joy-killer, wheth
er he be learned doctor, psychologist
or other form of nut. who would en
deavor to convince a child that there
is no Santa Claus.—News, Caldwell,
Idaho.

. t used to be the custom for
a man who wanted to buy a car to take a
mechanic with him.
Today, General Motors itself employs
skilled automotive engineers to make it
easy for you to select your new car. These
men ate working for you at its Proving
Ground—the 1168-acre outdoor laboratory
in Michigan where every kind of car is
tested.
Before any General Motors car goes in
to production, a fleet of advance models is
constructed and sent to the Proving
Ground. There these advance cats must
meet every test—tests far harder chan you
would make. Sometimes they are rebuilt,
redesigned, retested many times until they
are pronounced right, and ready to be put
into production.
The tests involve speed, power, endur
ance, braking, riding comfort, handling
ease; fuel and oil economy; body strength
and safety — every phase of car construc
tion and performance.
Buying a car is easy today—because
these men at the Proving Ground are work
ing for you to assure you of value when
you select a General Motors car.

There are no vehicles of any kind In
the Faroe Islands In tha North sea.
Their streets are mere paths that lack
all regularity. The capital Is T h o r

dom of Denmark.
But several agencies have com
bined to help her. Canners put out
fruits and vegetables in eight-ounce
cans which hold a cup and cost ten
cents. Evaporated milk solves her
milk problem, for it obviates the
nuisance of attending to milk bottles
and milk tickets and the problem of
storing milk. Evaporated milk will
keep well after being opened, if it
is not all used at once, and the un
opened cans can stand on the kitchen
shelf ready at all times for use.
