"A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL" ...from W)om all Westerns, tlolu w m This is surely a holiday season when we caii count our blessings. Our men are surging back victorious from the worst of all wars. Peace is in the making. And from our rich fields and gardens and orchards, food in abundance has come forth and been harvested for our holiday feasts, and for hapless peoples all over the world. Vet it might have been a grim holiday indeed. For early last Summer our country faced a food situation nothing short of perilous. Our farmers were so critically short of harvest help that they needed over 4,000,000 volunteers to save America's food and fiber crops. Country Gentleman, as National Spokesman for Agriculture, laid the problem before the American people through a series of advertisements in 236 newspapers all over the United States. And nearly 6,000,000 men, women and older children rallied to the farmers' plight and saved the nation's foodl This newspaper was one of those in which Country Gentleman sounded the alarm, and you in your community responded gallantly. At your big family dinner this year, pitch in. You've earned the righc to enjoy itl r f i i;Kvi ; v ?m your tire problems. OLDER TIRE EXCHANGE 8th and Riverside J i S',,y A'. 1 MhiadiitMiftBv
