The GMC “Triple

your gu ¢t
better. buy. 2
The word is spreading—and
fast—that light-medium
GMCs for 1950 are the best buys
in the whole light-medium
field! There are plenty of reasons why these new GMCs
offer even better performance
and greater economy than the
quick-stepping, money-savin
GMCs of the past. They're
easier riding, easier driving -.
improved to provide more comfort for the driver, more profit .
for the. owner on every score.
Last, but far from least, they
are products of the General
Motors division that’s the
world’s largest exclusive producer of commercial vehicles
--. that has, in addition to its
own ultra-modern facilities,
full access to the unparalleled
GM research and proving operationg that continually work:
to make ‘‘more and better
things for more people.”

The Chinese types are short, belladonnas about three feet with

I’ve never believed in hard and

Miss Gilbert, our grammar school
principal, spoke the other night at
the regular Parent-Teachers’ meeting; on getting children to do their
homework when they want to listen
to the radio.
“We musn’t give them a flat
'no’,” Miss Gilbert said. “If we
adults really believe in tolerance
and moderation, we should instill
these qualities in our children.
Listening to the radio is fine—in
moderation—as long as homework
gets done, too.” :
