—-whom tyicredibly, he loved.
Incredibly; and also witli a
great futility. Doctor Greeding
was essentially conventional, ac-
cepting the decent standards of
his world, abiding by them. No
matter what he might f«*el for
Mary Ann, he would still cleave
loyally to Myra, so long ns they
both should live.
Or—so long as Myra should live!
Thus insidiously, as he lay half
dreaming, there crept Into his
thoughts a hideous possibility, one
of those monstrous specters which

Wednesday evening in Miss
Crawford’s home tin* Wranglers
were entertained with a dinner,
after which a discussion of the
question for interscholastie debate
was predominant throughout t lie
evening.
Th • menu, which consists of
meat loaf with tomato sauce, En-
glish peas, sweet jaunto balls, in-
dividual salads in heart shaiH*,
olives, pickles, hot chocolate, roils,
and banana tarts, carried out a
color scheme of red and green.
The club is going to practice
debate in Amarillo February 0.
This Is an excellent way for the
Wranglers to gain some net*dcd ex-
perience before attending the iu-
terseholastle league debate* that
will be held in Amarillo next
April.

regular business wus attended to.
The long talked of chicks have
failed to materialize so far, and
now the plan is to get two weeks
old chicks Instead of day old, as

mittee was appointed to make
plans for the annual Father and
Son banquet. There is to be an
FFA basket bull tournament at
Bovina and tentative plans were
made to attend it.
The meeting adjourned, the

It has never occurred before in auto-
mobile history that 25 million ears of
one make, bearing one nan:e, have
been manufactured under one man-
agement. The 25,000,000th Ford car
rolled off the Ford Rouge Plant pro-
duction line on January 18, 1937.
25 million ears since 1903 . . . more
than one-third of all the cars ever
built . .. enough cars to transport the
entire population of the United States.
The figures represent a remarkable
contribution to the social welfare, the
industrial stability and the general
progress of our country.
People respect Ford efficiency. They
know Ford uses fine materials, the
best workmanship at good wages, the
most exact precision measurements.
They know these things are passed
along to purchasers in the form of
extra value. Naturally, they like to
do business with such a company.
That is the only reason it has been
required to produce 25 million cars.
Naturally, too, they expect
more of a Ford car, more this
year than last year — more
rach year than the year before. They
have every right lo. The experience
gained in building 25,000,000 ears en-
ables Ford to produce today a really
superb motor car at a really low price
— with the Beauty, Comfort, Safety
and Performance of much more ex-
pensive cars.
The 1937 Ford V-8 combines ad-
vanced design, all-steel construction,
extra body room, and brilliant brakes
with a rhoice of two V-typc 8-cylin-
der engines — the most modern type
of power-plant on land, sea, or in
the air.
The 85-horsepower engine provides
top performance with unusually good
economy for its high power.
The 60-horsepower engine gives
good performance with the greatest
The Sophomore class had Its
election of officers lust class meet-
ing. and the following were In-
stalled in office: Faye Crosthwalt,
president; Howard W«*st, vice
president; Virginia Newell, secre-
tary and treasurer; Betty Cock-
rell, reporter.
Since the mem tiers of ihc cls-s
have shown their faith in these
students by electing them to tliese
positions, the officers are express-
ing their thanks by “digging right
in" and getting started.
The talk given by T. W. Pro-
ton was, of course, enjoyed by
each and every lie, and the Soph-
omores contributed $5 to his cause.
The Sophomore class met Feb-
ruary 8 In their regular meeting
place. The class had some old
and new problems for discussion.
The problems for putting the class
picture in tin* paper was discuss
ed, including the cost and sizes
of the pictures. Members of the
staff for t’he Sophomore week were
elected, including Ruth Atehley,
editor in chief; Edith Jackson, as-
sistant editor; Minnie lH*a Smith,
