fit both to the individual and to the
causes of Christianity. It is hoped
, that Lent this year will stimulate
such a revival as will materially aid
in restoring sanity and a lasting
peace to this tragic world. Christian
people through their faith and pray-
ers can release the greatest of all
creative forces which is the power
of God in human affairs. Give your-
self to spiritual things during this
Lenten season.

During Lent, the Rector will have
a celebration of Holy Communion

not mean a period of time when we
give up something to commemorate
the sacrifice of Christ. It is a time
of doing something. We, therefore,
give up something in order to turn
our energy and resources into deep-
ening our study, worship and work
to be better prepared for the events
of Holy Week.

Ze] Garinger A Adds Memento Of
Abraham Lincoln To Collection
Zel Garinger, Lake Street, reports
that since the feature story about
his antique tool collection was pub-
lished in the Dallas Post, he has
been given a number of additions.
Fred Harlos, Lehman, contributed
a broadaxe; Dan Dedrick, Johnson
City, an adze; and R. L, Brickel a
narrow-bladed buck saw formerly
used as a coping saw for cutting
fancy curves in lumber. The fence
along the Brickel property on Main
Street, Mr. Garinger says, was cut
with this saw.
Mr. Garinger has also acquired
a scriber, a groover, and a home-
made rat trap, all on display with
the rest of the collection at his
home.
But the prize of the new acqui-
sitions is a saddle which once be-
longed to Captain Jacob Rice, a
native of Dallas, born June 16,
1817, died, also in Dallas, March 6,
1892.
The saddle, which came to Mr.
Garinger by way of Joseph Finch
and I. R. Elston, carried Captain
Rice through the Civil War and
along bridle paths in company of
Abraham Lincoln.
A Civil War pistol converted into
a leather-slicer and a bootjack,
once the property of Horton Baird,
given by him to Mr. Finch, Dallas
harness-maker, and through ‘I. R.
Elston to Mr. Garinger, are now in
the collection. :
Notes compiled by Mr. Garinger
concerning Captain Rice, reveal
that he owned the first painted
house in Dallas, now the Bodycomb
home, He was a farmer, lumber-
man, merchant, hotel keeper and
house builder.
The Lake Grove House which
stood on the site of the well known
Oneonta House at Harveys Lake
was of Captain Rice’s construction.
Captain Rice had the first spring
wagon ever seen in Dallas and the
first weigh-scale.
Connected with many depart-
ments of the army, he spent the
main part of his Civil War years
with the 53rd Pennsylvania Volun-
teers. He was a personal friend of
President Lincoln.
Mr. Garinger states that he will
be glad to show his collection, and
thinks that children studying
United States history would be es-
pecially interested in the saddle.
Painting Walls
Members of the Church of the
Prince of Peace vestry and men’s
club are painting the walls and floor
of the Parish Hall. It is planned to
include the walls and floor of the
church proper at a later date, The
painting is under direction of Paul
Goddard, junior warden of the
vestry.

How to get what you want and need in a truck.
“Dodge Job-Rated’ Trucks are the best we've ever used!”
«..says PAUL CRUCE, Cruce Bufane Co., Tulsa, Okla.
“We do a lot of driving on narrow roads, in
and out of driveways, in small yards and other
tight spots. We need trucks that are real easy
to handle, so wc switched to Dodge. They’ll
turn on a dime!
“We service oil wells, too, and that’s the
toughest! off-the-road hauling there is. We
need plenty of pulling power. For mud and
heavy pulling, Dodge ‘Job-Rated’ trucks are
dependable and economical to opera

gorrose you need a 114- or 2-ton truck. Naturally,
you'll want one that costs less to run. You’ll want
one engineered to last for years and years. Above
all, you'll want one that fits your job to a “T”".
That calls for a truck in which every unit that
moves the load is engineered to meet most severe con-
ditions—and every unit that supports the load is
engineered to provide the strength and’ capacity
needed. What’s more, load-moving and load-support-
ing units must be engineered to work together.
The way to get such a truck is to see us about a
Dodge ‘‘Job-Rated” truck—one that’s factory-engi-
neered for your kind of work!
Yes . : . when it comes to your hauling job, you'll
find everything you want and need in a Dodge “Job-
Rated” truck. Come in today.
Power with economy. The big high-compression
engine of a Dodge “Job-Rated”’ 114 or 2-ton truck
operates with outstanding economy. You get money-
saving values like chrome-plated top piston rings,
and exhaust valve seat inserts.
Time-saving performance. Low loading height on
114- and 2-ton models and hinged center sections on
stake bodies make loading and unloading easier.
5-speed transmissior available on most models for
more pulling power, better speeds.
Easy handling. Exceptional handling and steering
ease is made possible by: wide front tread and short
wheelbase. Thanks to shorter turning diameters, you
can turn sharper either right or left—back into
tight places easier. :
