Clean lines and rounded surfaces of the trunk lid accentuate
the fin-type rear fenders of the 1953 Studebaker Commander
coupe. Bumpers are V-shaped, and the rear bumper is recessed to
protect the rear license plate. Moldings extend from the leading
edge of the rear window to the top of the rear fender, and emphasize
the back angle "rake” of vertical tail lights. Counterbalanced
trunk lids are opened by a wing-type release.

And have you discovered what else
goes with this quieter, infinitely smooth,
dazzling new getaway?
New luxury interiors, for one thing. And
new braking power. And easier handling.
And a still finer ride. And new record-
high horsepowers and compression in all
models — with the world’s newest V8
engine powering the ROADMASTER and
Super.
But why miss a world of new thrills?
If you haven’t yet sampled a new Buick
with TT Dynaflow, we cordially invite
you to do so—without obligation, of
course. Can you drop in this week?

guest speaker for members of
Circle No. 1 of the W.S.C.S. of
First Methodist church in the
home of Miss Carrie Eldridge,
326 South Dixon street, Monday
afternoon.
Mrs. H.‘ E. Lindell, president,
conducted a business session and
Mrs. L. P. Wherry gave the de-
votional.
Mrs. Harrison gave a part of
the African study book, “African
on Safari.” Her subject was a
story of the “African pilgrim.”
The story is a true tale of an
ex-missionary who returns to
Africa to visit his son.
The speaker told of the man’s
landing at the southern tip of
Africa and about his trip into
the Belgian Congo. She also told
of his attending the African con-
ference.
The home was decorated with
arrangements of spring flowers
and the refreshments carried out
were in the St. Patrick’s theme
with boiled custard topped with
whipped cream and a green
cherry and cakes iced in green.
Rehearsal Dinner
For Cast of Play
The Senior mothers gave a re-
hearsal dinner on Monday at 5:30
p. m. in the Junior high school
cafeteria honoring the cast of the
senior play and the sponsors.
The play, “Best Foot For-
ward,” by John Cecil Holm will
be presented Tuesday evening at
8:15 o’clock in the Junior high
school auditorium.
The sponsors are Bob Pratt,
Mr. and Mrs. Louis Stephenson
and Miss Cleo Stewart and Ro-
berta Floyd. Mr..Pratt was pre-
sented a gift from members of
the cast.
“For What Are You Praying?”
The guest speaker’s subject for
the lesson was “Christian Edu-
cation.” Mrs. Green stressed the
fact that it is up to Christian
leaders to train the young peo-
ple and the Presbyterian church
is spending time, money and en-
ergy in doing this.
At the close of the meeting
Misses Ada Morgan, Judy Bro-
man and Linda Bohls sang
“Prayer of a Norwegian Child,”
accompanied by Mrs. Gladys
O’Brien.

. Missionary to
Brazil Heard
' By Spanish Class
Rev. Charles A. Long, of
Thackerville, Okla., was speaker
for the first year Spanish class
at Gainesville high school on
Friday. Mr. Long and his wife
were missionaries in Brazil for
40 years and have traveled
throughout the entire country,
although their work was con-
fined principally to the central
part including Rio, Sao Paulo
and Santos.
Mr. Long gave an informative
• history of Brazil from its discov-
ery to the present time. He told
of the vast illiteracy of the peo-
ple, which has decreased from
- 90 per cent to 65 per cent in the
1950 census. The reasons for the
illiteracy as he gave them were
the disinterest of early settlers
in education and the vast
stretch es of sparsely settled
country.
“Some regions of the Amazon
have not yet been penetrated,
being inhabited by wild Indian
tribes,” Mr. Long said. He also
told that there are brilliant, edu-
cated men in the history of the
country. The retired missionary
told that Brazil’s government has
been fundamentally democratic
• even as a monarchy and the
country is the best friend in
Latin America of the U. S.

WATE knew it was good from the moment
W we tried it.
Butman!—you ought to hear the raves
about Twin-Turbine Dynaflow Drivet
from the people who’ve been trying and
buying the new Buicks.
One word wraps up the whole story—
sensational.
Have you tried it?
Have you pressed the pedal of a 1953
Buick with this new wonder drive and
thrilled to the greatest getaway in all
Buick history?
Have you felt the jet-like take-off that
sweeps you from zero to 30 mph before
you take two breaths—and in a perfect
progression of complete and utter
