MOTOR-IN MOVES TO NEW STATION
Motor-In Service is open for
business in their new 40- by 72
foot cement block building in the
North Palmer area. Although the
interior is not yet completed,
owners Duffs and Scotts are busi
Ijy servicing cars and trucks. The
new station will accommodate
two cars, or one semi truck unit
in each of its three stalls. In ad
dition, a twin post hoist has been
installed, believed to be the first
of its kind in this area. Two
Siamese gas pumps offer fast ser
vice to those driving in for
“curb” service.
The Duffs, Harry and Karla,
their son and daughter-in-law,
Bert and Marge, have taken in
two new members of the firm,
Jim and Betty Scott. The first
Motor-In Service was oepned in
1952 when the Duffs purchased
the former Service Station. The
new building was under construc
tion when an early morning fire
gutted the old station in August,
forcing an earlier move to their
new quarters than had been
planned. Last week the old struc
ture was torn down.
Upon completion of the build
ing interior, which will offer
three modem rest rooms, open
house is planned. Refreshments
and souvenirs will be given to
all who visit the new, modern
station.
General tires and tubes and
Standard products are sold at the
station.

Thousands
ask us
This question first was asked
prior to the turn of the century, when
the rare flavor of Olympia Beer could
be enjoyed only by the few pioneers
living within a day's wayon-ride
of Olympia, Washington. The answer
to the question then holds true today... The delightful, unvarying flavor and purity of
Olympia Beer cannot be obtained without the
naturally perfect brewing water from our own
artesian wells. Olympia’s skilled Master Brewers
attempted, in years gone by, to duplicate the
quality of Olympia Beer at other locations, using
other waters. The results never satisfactorily
approached the unchanging quality and refreshing
flavor that have come to be the hallmarks of Olympia.
That is why we confine the brewing of Olympia Beer
to our one plant at the site of our artesian wells,
and why so many who appreciate a superb,
sparkling beer agree ...

HEALTH FOR ALL
Christmas Sealed
Signed, Christmas Sealed, and
delivered to the post office—your
Christmas cards. That’s one of the
holiday tasks ahead that most of
us enjoy. Happy memories are
recalled as we sign these annual
messages of good will to our
friends. And there’s a special
pleasure in adding a pair of
Christmas Seals to the flap of
the envelope to symbolize our
message of good will to the whole
community.
Americans are the most gen
erous people in the world. Every
year they contribute billions to
charity, and especially during the
holiday season their hands are
outstretched to give so that as
many as possible may share in
celebrating this happy time. But
the Christmas Seals we use repre
sent much more than charity to
ward the sick and unfortunate.
They represent a gift for the wel
fare of the entire community, a
gift for ourselves.
Christmas Seal money is spent
to help protect you and me from
tuberculosis, an infectious disease
that recognizes no social barriers.
No matter which side of the
tracks we live on, TB is our
enemy. When TB enters a house
hold, it can devour the savings of
a lifetime, weaken family ties,
damage health permanently. And
CATHOLICS TO OBSERVE
HOLY DAY ON DEC. 8
Two additional masses will be
offered at St. Michael’s Catholic
Church by Rev. James P. Snead
during the coming week. First of
these is an evening mass at 7:30

Feast of the Immaculate Concep
tion and a holy day of obligation
on which all Catholics are requir

United States, honoring the bless
j ed Virgin Mary under the title
; of Immaculate Conception and
i marks the closing date of the
j Marian Year, celebrated through
| out 1954.
! Sunday mass is offered at 9:00
a.m.
it can kill. Although modern
medical science has saved mam
from TB, it takes more lives than
all other infectious diseases. Yet
this need not be so. TB can be
prevented.
Your contribution to your tu
berculosis association is used to
prevent TB in your home town.
How the money will be spent is
decided on the basis of local con
ditions by people you know who
live in your community.
