and tubes, is exhibiting a minia-

as a result of a tire selling con-
test, which was conducted dur-

did not win the first prize for
the district, which was a trip to
Akron, Ohio, he made an excel-
lent record in his sales. Mr. Allen

station, and we hope and feel
that we have been partially re-
sponsible for his large sales in
this line of tires.

Former Honey Grove Man Dead.
Friends in Honey Grove re-
cently received news of the
death of Julian Pennybacker,
who for many years was a resi-
dent of Honey Grove. Mr.

eight years ago. He passed
away in Houston September 26
at the age of 67 years. For
many years he had been con-
nected with the Houston Chron-
icle, first as a traveling repre-
sentative and later as a member
of the reportorial force. A sis-
ter of Mr. Pennybacker, Mrs. B.
C. Epperson, resides in Dallas.
