It runs like a well broken in modern car. Old Car Still Almost Like New After 31 Continuous Years Of Use By J. O. McKINNEY Mail Tribune Correspondent Mount Shasta Virginia Lyon-Wood, of Scenic dr., Mount Shasta, has an auto mobile thai is unusual on many counts. It was bought in 1931, has been in continual use since, has had but two owners, and two sets of brake linings, the original, and one replacement. It is now running on its third set of tires, and while it may nave Been driven oy some service station attend ant or garage mechanic a few ftct, ii has never been driven the highways by anyone but the two owners. These were: the original purchaser, Merrill Lyon-Wood, and the present owner, Miss Lyon-Wood. This old car runs like a well broken-in modern car. ; Its compression is good, gaso-' line mileage just under 20 MPG, which for any 8-cylin- der car is good. Total miles run iiiul a feu Ince Ihnn 65.000. Miss Lyon-Wood attributes the enr's wonderful condition to its excellent care. She per sonally docs all minor adjust- A. V. Burgoynes Win Central Pt. Lighting Contest Central Point - The A. W. Burgoyne residence, on Old Stage road, was first place winner in the Christmas light ing contest here and the fam ily received a blender as first place award. The two second place win ners were: John G. Champ, 16 Lake In., and Ferrand Wil liams, 537 Fifth St. Both re ceived radios. Third place winners, who got $5 each, were Cliff Green, Route 1. Box 251; G. Don Hugenson, 43 South Ninth St., and Roy Dcutschman, 3247 Burscll rd. Judges in the contest said there were 40 entries in the competition and picking the first place winner was diffi cult. There were many artis tic and unique displays en tered in the three mile radius. The contest is an annual affair conducted in joint co operation with the Central Point Junior Chamber of Commerce and Pacific Power and Light company. menls, such as valve grind ing, and spark plug replace ments. Too, it has never been involved in an accident. Dur ing its 31 years of activity it will be 32 years next March 20 the California Automo bile Association has carried all insurance. Never has a claim for damages been filed that involved this grand car. When the car was bought, the Peerless, Packard, and Pierce-Arrow were the big three in the automobile world. With Miss Lyon-Wood, there is but one really good ear. That is the one she now en joys driving, the 4,000-pound Peerless that steps out like a last year's model just broken in.

Dance Planned In Prospect Monday Prospect The Nnhtlitei's of Piospccl lliuh school will hold a New Year's dance Mon day lit Kill at the community hall here. Sponsor of the dance is (he local 1, ions club. Music will consist of vocal and insli umenliil numbers. The community Christmas tree and pronram at Table Rock was attended by some HO people, includim some visitors from other places. An excellent program of readings, music and songs was followed by a visil from Sanla Clans, who was Hie vital point of interest, espe cially with the young fry, for the rest of the evening. Richard Morris had made arrangements for Santas visit, and must have informed him as lo names and past behavior. Santa must have considered the children's behavior pretty fair as each youngster, besides getting lo sit on his lap, received a present. The Christmas spirit seemed to prevail in the community with many homes being highly decorated with colored lights, evergreens, etc. Tlie most elaborate that we noticed was the Ernest Sniilh home, where Ernest, Lois and Melissa arc taking care of Santa's reindeer during the Christmas holidays. The Donald Richardson family of Portland, who were holiday visitors here with relatives and friends, left Wednesday for Portland. Don seemed lo gt a kick out of our story in last week's Tablets about Gen. Shatter rolling out of the buggy when it turned over. We were afraid he might think we didn't show enough respect for the general. In army lite, one rates according to his rank, and Donald came out of World War 11 as a captain. The clean-up operations following Ilic Christmas celebrations, are about completed here. At this writing the skeleton of the turkey looks as if it had been through the propellers of an aeroplane. It'i Resolution! Time As we will soon be slarling a new year, the usual New Year's resolutions will be in order. Bill Stamps, the disc Jockey, tells us he has a cigarette problem which he can't shake off. We asked him if he was going to make a New Year's resolution to quit smoking. He said he didn't know, he had been making them for about 50 years bill still had the habit; which goes to show what some of our teenagers are getting into when they be gin playing with tire on the end of a cigarette. We were silting on the running board of a car with a young lady some time ago, when cars had running boards. We .started to light a cigarette, when our com panion asked us to give her one. and when we refused, she said, "'Don't you think a woman has as much right to smoke as a man"" We told her we did, but had be lieved they had too much sense lo do such silly things. At any rate, we were not going to be the one to start her on a habit that would likely cling lo her for the rest of her hie. The Horsa And I We have received a get well card from the Pierces showing an old horse with a feed bag on. and these words; ''Everybody gets sick; sometimes a hoise won't eat Ins oats." The horse and 1 look likV two of a kind, except we have so far been able to eat our oals each day. Al Horello, who has been a patient for sometime in Rogue Valley hospital, is at present spending the holidays at Ins home here. We have al intervals, been reading 'Final Verdict." which we would recommend to anyone as good reading matter It is the life story of a brilliant man. sympa thetic with the underdog, and defender of the innocent, until proven guilty. Some places in the hook will cause a lump to rise in one's throat, especially the mention of the dark partner in Ins make-up, the alcoholic urge which he could never compier and finally gel hun at age fifty.
