HOME ARTS CLUB MEET
WITH MRS. FRANK LOVE
The Home Arts Club met last
evening at the home of Mrs. Frank
Love, with Mrs. A. Steinwandel
assisting hostess, for a Christmas
party. This organization will take
charge of the old clothes drive
which starts in January, and is
sponsored by a national organiza
tion headed by Henry Kaiser and
Herbert Hoover. The aim of the
drive is to collect 100,000,000 gar
ments for the needy of the war
torn countries. Thousands of chil
dren cannot attend school because
they have neither clothes nor
shoes, and there is little hope of
available fuel for the winter
months. The committee in charge
of the campaign are Mrs. Carl
Glavinovich, chairman; Mrs. Ken
Rank, and Mrs. A. Polet. Anyone
wishing to volunteer clothing be
fore the drive starts can get in
touch with the above named com
mittee for further information.

A TORQUE CONVERTER TRACTOR
HD-14-C
Tried, tested, proved on a variety of jobs during the war years, the new Allis
Chalmers HD-14-C Diesel Tractor is now ready to increase your production, cut
your operating cost. A new power drive—Torque Converter—gives the HD-14-C out
standing advantages over standard tractors:
MORE WORK is accomplished because horsepower output of engine is
held near maximum. This means higher average working speeds, more
loads moved per day.
LONGER TRACTOR LIFE is assured by the cushion effect of convertor
when master clutch is engaged. This eliminates shock, greatly reduces
breakage and wear.
LONGER LIFE OF EQUIPMENT PULLED OR PUSHED is the natural
result of gradual acceleration and even application of power.
SMOOTHER OPERATION . . . LESS GEAR SHIFTING means greater
operator comfort, more work done. Tractor operates in each speed with
out stalling. An overload can pull it to a standstill . . . but engine can
not be stalled.
You will want to investigate these any many other advantages of this new-type
money-making Diesel tractor.
