When pulling things in shape foi the cold months ahead, don't forget the larm pond. .Many farm pond* become fire traps when needed in the winter. They freeze so solid that by the time water can be readied b\ chopping a hole, the fire is out of control. This can all be avoided, and at little expense, by just using an oak barrel, with one end knocked out. w j ln iand partially filled with a brine solu- Qjj.jtion.

Place the barrel in a deep jpart of the pond in a place where the fire truck can approach. I These suggestions come from Prof. E. W. Foss of the N. Y. State Col- Jlege of Agriculture who says it's al- ;so advisable to place a marker on the barrel so it can be found- under snow. Cover the barrel to prevent dilution with rain water and snow.

If he did, it would be the same as asking the tractor-owning farmer to give him his work for no- thing. Nobody willingly works for noth- ing. No fair-minded person would have it otherwise.

V/ednesday evening, Oct. 17, a ! covered dish congregational dinner was held in the dining room of the Hamilton Union Prestn terian church. Over 125 attended. One of the out- standing features of the,evening was the recognition and honor given to the eight persons who have been members of the church longest. To- gether with the dale when they united with the church, their names are: Miss Anna Bingham, May 6, 1888; Miss Jennie Andrews, March 27, 1892; Mrs. Jennie Garland, March, 1892; Miss Anna DcGraff, March 29, 1894; Miss Elizabeth Crommc, Jan. 26, 1896; Edward Olenhouse, March 29, 1896; Mrs. Anna Vosburgh, Feb. 14, 1897; Miss Jennie Bingham, March 28, 1900. The women were presented with corsages and seated as guests of honor. Miss Jennie Bingham and Edward Olenhouse were unable to be present. The years represented by these 8 persons total 493 years of membership and service to the church. If the 8 had succeeded each other in generations past, they would have spanned the period 29 years before the discovery of America in 1492 un- til the present. Special recognition and honor was extended to the new members who have joined the church since World Wide Communion Sunday, 1955; also to Mr. and Mrs. Charles Snyder, who leave soon for Roanoke, Va. Mr. and Mrs. Snyder have been faithful members of the church for store, and gi^hop. irmed Church Ser- Rev. Gprarf : J.

Readings from the King James Version of the Bible and \Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures\ by Mary Baker Eddy, will comprise the lcosson-sermon entitled \Proba- tion After Death.\ Scriptural passages will include the following from Psalms (37:37): \Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that'man is peace.\ Among the selections to be read from Science and Health is the fol- lowing (291:12-13): \Universal salva- tion rests on progression and proba- tion, and is unaltainable without them.\ An exclusive new Turhoglide heacb rolel power train I'ealures thai ex tends from the Ihree-speed liil't through an improved glide aulomulie transmission gas-saving overdrive. Introducing a new design torque convener type, the Tut boglide is supplied only with the 283-eUbic inch engine.- Superlative responsiveness, elimina- tion of' all aulomulie shifting and a newly developed \hill retarder\ are a few of the innovations. According to Chevrolet, Turboglido gives far greater variable torque multiplication than now delivered by standard torque converters, assuring a high brand of performance. Differing from the usual transmis- sion, too, is the single forward driv- ing position on the quadrant. This is possible, says I he company, be- cause Iho infinitely graduated torque multiplications from a standing start to highway cruising speed makes a step in the transmission unnecessary. The feeling of \shill\ is completely eliminated. Mechanically, Turhoglide consists of three turbines and I wo planetary gearsels combined with a variable pitch stalor and the conventional torque converter pump enclosed in a die cas't aluminum housing. Drive of the transmission output shall results from an ingenious coupling of the turbines and the gears. As the turn- ing force of one of the turbines les- sens, another- lakes over to maintain a constant positive drive. In the hill retarder position, a turbulence is created in the oil in the convener to impart a drag on the rear wheels. This safely factor, patterned after a smilar device de- veloped for the automatic truck transmission by Chevrolet, is reputed- ly an exclusive feature. Today's service station dealer is a responsible executive in a muilibil- lion-dollar business that keeps some 48 million cars rolling safely.
