"National Farm Safety week has just been observed, but housewives may well give earnest considera tion to kitchen accident figures and ways to make their kitchens safer throughout every week of the year. "Almost one oht of every five home accidents, causing Injuries serious enough to require hospital care, occurs in the kitchen, acc ording to National Safety council estimates. These accidents include falls, bums and scalds, collisions and bumps, cuts, bruises and pois oning. More than a fourth of these kitchen accidents are burns and scalds, with burns by steam and hot liquids the most frequent. Care lessness more often is the cause of these bums than poor kitchen equipment.

CHEST X-RAYS WILL BE GIVEN IN COUNTS Upper Sunset SEPTIC TANKS WATER SOFTENERS Chrome Sink Mixing Faucets Eureka Vacuum Cleaner» Cleaned and Repaired Brower Plumbing Shop Phone 95J Can I place my order for a new Ford? Yes. We shall be glad to take your order now. W hen can I expect to get a new car, if I place an order now? We wish we could tell you exactly when your new car can be deliv ered, but there have been so many interruptions during recent mon ths, we hesitate to make a guess. But can’t you give me some idea when I can get delivery? We’re awfully sorry, but we can’t, and here’s why. The Ford Motor Company can’t tell us how many cars they will be able to let us have in the near future....and until we know how many cars we can count on getting, we just can’* forecast future deliveries. Frank! the way things look now it will probably be several months, and maybe even longer, before deliveries can be made on orders taken today. During past months, there has been an acute shortage of mater ials and parts to build new cars, due to work stoppages in major industries. And it is still dif. icult to get all the materials and parts needed to step up production. So long as this uncertainty continues it will be difficult to make promises for future deliv eries. On the other hand every effort is being made to secure need ed materials and parts in sufficient quantities to maintain full Ford production. And we are all hopeful that the present uncer tain industrial conditions will be adjusted. As soon as this can be done, Ford Motor Company CAN and WILL step up production to full capacity...and then it will be possible to make delivery quicker than can be foreseen right now. Q. If I had a good used ear to trade, wouldn’t that help me get a new one sooner? No, we’re sorry but it wouldn’t. We are in the automobile business, and naturally, we are glad to get all the cars we can, both new and used, to sell...BUT WE DON’T LET THAT CONTROL DELIV ERY OF NEW CARS. Q. If I make a deposit on a new car, and later on decide I don’t want it, can I get my money back? Yes, as long as the present condition exists we will refund your de posit at any time you wish. How will my deposit on a new car be protected? All deposits we take on new cars are put in a special account at the bank until delivery is made. We don’t use customers’ deposits in the operation of our business....so your money is always right there in the bank if you want it back. Q. A. Isn’t there SOMETHING I can do to get a new car now? I am will ing to pay a premium if necessary. We do not accept bonuses over our regular, established retail pric es. We list all orders numer cally and deliver the cars in turn The only exceptions for earlier delivery that will be made are in cases of public necessity or fleet deals, and they do not affect our customer quota. Q- Why hasn’t the Ford Motor Company built more cars since the A. Q. A. war? Ford was the first automobile manufacturer to get into production with a 1946 model ear...and was months ahead of the rest of the in dustry. But circumstances that neither the Ford Motor Company, employees nor its dealers could control have restricted the produc tion of new cars to only a fraction of the number the company had planned to build. Have strikes held down Ford production? There hasn’t been a single strike at the Ford Motor Company since the close of the war. But strikes in other plants and industries have held Ford production down. In addition to the steel and coal strikes, with which you are familiar, there have been numerous strikes in plants that the Ford Motor Company deperds on for materials and for parts. These work stoppages created a shortage of materials and parts that have held the productic n of new cars down...and on several occasions completely closed all Ford plants for weeks at a time VVe want to thank you for your patience and understanding in this difficult situation and to assure you that we are doing everything we can do to give you early delivery. In the meantime, may we suggest that you bring your present car to us for service. We will give it expert care, at reasonable rates, to keep it serving you well until your new Ford can be delivered. Herriman Motor Company THERE’S A FORD IN YOUR FUTURE..... MAYBE SOONER THAN YOU THINK.
