THIS is the year of all years when it will pay you to place
an order for your Paige, just as early as possible.
In the first place, there is every indication that the "sold out"
condition of last year will be repeated
Thousand. of people have been watching the performance of
this great car studying the experience of owners convinc
ing themselves that Paige is actually first choice in the field
3f light
oi ttgnt sixes.
Then, too, you will undoubtedly be obliged to pay more for
your Paige if you wait too long.
It is a matter of public knowledge that the costs of all manufact
uring materials and labor have increased tremendously during
the past year and quotations are still climbing.
"W Kaw rtf rniirs. pmtp-tJ crmA by early purchase. But',
our present supplies cannot last indefinitely and, in th? face
of a steadily advancing market, we shall be obliged to uv
crease list prices proportionately.
So for your own protectionnow is the time to act Don't
wait until it is too late. Don't place yourself in a position
where it will be necessary to compromise on a "second best" .

Hmt ago by
Andrew Car-
nateie, can
trt il be apfi'.ied to American hie
at tbc present time. Lack of a
proper understanding of thrift ha
been re-ponib!e for a great deal
or barrrr in America thi tpring and
iiamer.
Thi has been due to f.ilse econ
ensy. !ttt people are rapidly gettinq
if jund ti the T-ewpoint that hoard

are a locg way front real thriit.
What we all must learn is to
eliminate waste. There is a great
deal oi dirTfrence between waste
and sensible spending. The most
reprehensible form of waste, of
course, at the present time is in
t?ie matter of food. Secretary
Houston has said that if only a
tingle ounce of edible food, on the
arera?e. ii al'owed to ssoil or te
be t'lroii !. away in each of ottr
20 1'.. home over 1,300.000
pound, of material would be wasted
each day. This would b at th
rate or 464.D0O,i'X) pounds of looA
a year. Thmk of the millions of
acres mt land a4 tb thouasds 3
a neceuary to pro4uc lbia
raat amo-jnt of food!
It would be a rery good Ue
far every American home today ta
adpt the slofan, 5ae an unca
of ioo4 a day."
This is a i.ttle thing to do. It
really requirei no amount of elf
sacrince. On the other hanrl, we rare alt
been eating a little too much.
Cutting jowa atir rations trils
will be good for our health.
"Save as ounce of food a day."
Let every American home do this
and we will have gwne lag way
toward the solution of our .food
problem.
At this time of the year ever
household should take advantage
of the faet that vegetables consti
tute a comparatively cheap food.
In soup particularly it should
not be forguttcn that veaetablea
are necessary for keeping tie bodj
in health, because they are rela.
tively rich in mineral matter and
mild vegetable acid, " and "con
tain recently discovered substances
without which, the body processes
seem not to be carried on properly.
Since soups offer an excellent wan
of utilizing odds and ends of vege
tables, and especially left overs and)
parti which otherwise would ha
wasted, the use of vegetable ou
is often a real economy.

President Harry M. Jewett. of the

that work on the addition is already

the vision which has carried their com

"It is "everywhere admitted that fun
