W. Bradford, in Centre Hall, on Tuesday and Wednesday, to get a glimpse of a live deer, Bure they had seen lots of them, but only after a hunter's bullet had laid them out. The beauty, innocence and native “spunk” can only be appreciated in a live deer, The deer in question wae captured by Mr. Bradford on Grange Park early Tuesday morning, It had been run by dogs and sought the en- closed grounds as a place of refuge. Mr. Bradford chanced to discover the animal—a buck fawp, old from spring, and not yet of the age to be within the law for killing im deer sesgon—as he was on bls way to the fields lying west of the plenic grounde. The little beauty was lying on the ground at the upper end of the park, Mr, Bradford first thought it was a goat, but closer investigation proved it tobes fawn. It had evidently been lying on the ground for some time, for a pool of blood was about the deer, which came from wcundson the pose and mouth, caused, no doubt by etrik- ing on the fence, - It is presumed the dogs were chasing the mother deer and the little fawn ran in another direction, Mr. Bradford ¢ttempted to pick up the deer, which weighs about seventy- five pounds, but sithough very weak, it ran towards the fence and was 800d fast in the woven wire, He released it and soon found that to attempt to take the deer home was more than he bimeelt could do. He then went for aid and with the aesistance of W. F. Keller and D. Geies Wagner, the deer was carrled to Mr, Bradford's barn, but only after a chaee over the en- closed park snd after the animaal had again become tied up In the wire fence, Upon making irquiry of = State constabulary Mr. Bradford was ad- vised to keep the fawn until it gath- ered sufficient strength and then to re lease it in the mountaloe, Those who venlured near the deer in the stable to give it a ‘kind touch were given a eample of the force it carries in its front legs and its short horns, It charged several who came too close and is surly full of “pep’’ for a little wounded animal, As it nestles in its warm bed smidst the hay, it presents a picture sq pure and ionc- cent that we feel constrained to esy that the species should be free from the buntsman’s rifla and be permitted to roam in the mountain fastnesses un- molested, ————— —————— 27 Called Out of 100 Mcn, The following is a tummary of the work of the Exemption Board of Centre county on the 100 men called for examination last week: 27 called into service; passed physi cally and filed no exemption elaime, 8 failed Lo sppear. 60 discharged for physical reasons and on valid exemption claime. 5 claimed exemption who did not furnish the neccesary sflidavita.

If ycu are one of our few agents who has only a few orders on hand, kindly regard this as a notifi- cation that from now on we will not ship you cars unless you have regular bona fide orders on band #0 that yoo can immediately deliver cars to own- ors, BE You will remember on Dee, 10.b, 1916, we notified all our agents that during the winter that was then ou ue, we would positively deliver no cars to agents unless they bad them sold in advance, Some agenis thought they could not sell during the winter and some prospective purchasers thought we were bluffing, but there are thour- ands and thousands of people/in these United Btates who now know that If they had taken advice of our agents and sccepted delivery of a car at any time it could be delivered, even If the snow was deep, that they would have had a car now, instead of being with- out anything at all or riding around in something whose first cost was con- siderably more than the first cost and upkeep of a Ford for several years, Our fiscal year ended July 81st, 1917, and at that time the Ford Motor Com~ paoy closed its books with 850,000 up- filled orders. The Company to-day is now building 8300 cars a day, and some of our agents are delivering this month, orders taken I st April and Mey. In looking over our list we find sgents with anywhere from 50 to 178 upfilled orders. If you doubt this statement, we will be more than glad to show you the sctual figures the pext time you areat this Branch. Our total of unfilled orders this month ie over 2500 at this branch only. Isn't it fair, therefore, that we should hand the care out to the agents who have lhe orders Instead of those that feel they can pell a cor. oad of cara i” we ship It into their territory ? Ae you kpow, we hisve changed cur plan of distzitution somewhat this year and esch agent fs gelilog a cer. tain number of cars every month, so if you bave orders you are bound to get some cars esceh month snd should be able lo estimate sbeut when yeu could meke delivery to your customers, Tbe price of the Bedar, Coupelet and Town car hes jaet been raised, but the Tourlog ear and Runabout price, ex- cept for the sddition of the war tex just declared, remaips the same, We haven't any means of knowing when wo may be forced to ralee the price on all modele. Just as lsst year, it can- not be considered that there is a short. age of Ford ears, but eimply that there is sn Increased demsnd and the msn who puts off buying a Ford car until spring, will, from present indications, either have to buy scmethiog else or go withoui allogether, Last winter you will remember that on posi'ive instructions from Detroit we had lo ship 1000 of pur care South, W bad hardly gotten started on these shipments before all cur agents were awake to the situation and eryiog for the care, but it was too late, If we can show by vur demand st this Branch that the Ford cars are needed in the Pittsburg territory, we have a very good chance of getting more than our allo!ment during the nex! few months, It wil’, therefore, be up to all agents to get very busy right away acd keep or- ders on file ahead of the quantity we are shipping from this Branch each day, or our production will be deliver- ed elsewhere, As it je, we shall sim- ply divert from one poiot in our terri- tory, where there are no orders, to those points that have orders, so make it plain to your trade that they had better place that order tc-day and take delivery of the car any time that we can get it to you, instead of putting it off and running the risk of their go- ing without altogether or paying a higher price later for some other make, Keep this letter with you. Bhow it to your prospective ocustomers—give them time to read it. If they won't believe you and us in spite of the well known experience of last seasor, you cars to pomeone with more foresight, Forp NV oroR ( OMPANY H. N.
