Cotton Report.
The census report shows that
there were 1,305 bales of cotton
ginned in Jack County from the
crop of 1934 prior to Nov. 1, 1934,
as compared with 3,425 bales gin-
ned to Nov. 1, 1933.
day. A very interesting Armis-
tice Day program * was led by
Annelle Breech. The topic was
“Wrur—Some of its causes, re-
sults and remedies.’* Questions
were asked about the topic and
about the organizations that have
been started for the prevention of
war, and what another war
would mean. Ruth Leverton told
in story form the play, “Un-
known.” A pledge to the flag
“America First,” was given by
Arthur Evans. The flags were
then raised and Taps was sung.
The True side, led by Harold
Spears is ahead. A party will be
given next Saturday at 7:30.
J. H. Timberlake had charge of
the program on “The Interna-
tional Youth Movements.” “The
Communistic Movement” was
Mrs. C. \V. Patton’s topic, and
“The international Federation of
Youths” was given by Mrs. J.
W. Spears.
A desert course was served to
the following members and guests:

This Machine Shows Why this New Oil
Cuts Motor Wear and Saves You Money!
as a buyer of Motor Oil, should ask that question
X —and demand facts! Here is Continental’s answer:
In the demonstration pictured below, the film strength
and oiliness of every well known motor oil in America
have been shown to be increased by the addition of a
drop of Germ Essence.
Demonstrations before at least two hundred thousand
motor-minded men have proved that “Any oil would be
better oil if Germ Processed!” But there is only one oil
made by the patented Germ Process—New and Improved
Conoco Germ Processed Motor Oil! Use this oil of proved
strength in your car! It saves you money by giving
greater motor protection and lower oil consumption. It
gives you the comfortable feeling that you know your
car is protected by the safest, finest motor oil made!
Assembled instrument
Split bearings and shaft,
lubricated with competi-
tive oil, are clamped be-
tween “jaws” of instru-
ment. With set-screw, ex-
treme pressure is applied.
Crank is now used to turn
shaft. Oil film ruptures
and bearings “seize.”
Shaft extremely hard to
turn. You can even hear
the metal-to-metal con-
tact!
Drop of Germ Essence
is added to oil in bearing.
Same pressure applied. -
Shaft can now be turned
easily. Smooth, quiet
movement—no seizing-
no sound. Proof that
Germ Processing in-
creases oiliness and film
strength of any oil!
TO CAR OWNERS OF JACKSBORO
Continental hacks claims with facts. To prove that New and Im-
proved Conoco Germ Processed Motor Oil gives you lower oil
consumption as well as greater motor protection, we drove six
brand new cars to destruction, testing this oil against five other
nationally known oils. Any Conoco station will give you a book-
let that tells the story of this convincing test. It will pay you in
money saved to read it. Drive in and ask for a copv—or try this oil!

Stop Chills
and Fever!
RiJ Your Syatom of Malaria!
Shivering with chilli one moment and
burning with fever the next—that’s one
of the effects of Malaria. Unless checked,
the disease will do serious harm to your
health. Malaria, a blood infection, calls
for two things. First, destroying the in-
fectkin in
upAe bio
the disease
the blood. Second, building
blood to overcome the effects of
and to fortify against further
attack.
Grove’s Tasteless Chill Tonic supplies
both these effects. It contains tasteless
quinine, which kills the infection in the
blood, and iron, which enriches and
builds up the blood. Chills and fever
soon stop and you are restored to health
and comfort. For half a century, Grove's
Tasteless Chill Tonic has been sure relief
for Malaria. It is just as useful, too, as a
general tonic for old and young. Pleasant
to take ami absolutely harmless Safe to
