No local damage is reported in the

cracks in ceilings of the larger frame
buildings. Although Echo is 13 miles
from Ordnance the sound of the ex

was so strong that many thought a
bomb had dropped in the immediate
vicinity. Farmers report that poul

“We are announcing a new ser
vice—now that there are no new
cars being made, it behooves us all
to take the very best care of the
car we now have.
“If you have your car paid for,
you can now have a complete re-
building job done and pay one-
third down and the balance in easy
monthly payments. Or if your car
is now financed by General Motors
Acceptance Corp., you may also
have your repair work on easy
monthly payments.”
