"This Buick W sedan is a sturdy, 3,500- poond car, " with ample adult roominess ami built to Buick'a high standards of quality" says Mr. R. I, Overton. "The 1932 model has been increased in size, power, beauty of appearance and economy, as well as bejug lowered in price. The wheel base has been lengthened, the five-passenger body is two inches linger and the eight-cylinder Buick valve-in-head engine has been increased to 82% horsepower with high compression, which the owner can have at no additional cost. Wizard Control, an exclusive Buick feature, brings unsurpassed driving ease to the '57'. It combines the automatic clutch, silent-second Syncro- Mesh transmission, and free wheeling. The automatic clutch makes it possible to shift to any speed without using clutch pedal. The new Syncro- Mesh transmission with silent second gives featherweight shifting aurf acceleration ap to forty miles per hour before shifting into high. The free wheeling is instantaneous aad er.tirly foot-controlled, requiring no pushing or pulling of hand levers. "Dual carburation, the Buick engine oil temperature regulator, insulated fuel system and many other 1932 Buick advancements are presented in this sedan. It -also has the famous torque tube drive that gives Buick its train-like steadiness. "The new body by Fisher for the "57' is a counterpart of those for the more expensive models, with smartly sloping windshield, dual horns, slim radiator shell, hood doors and single bar bumpers. The roomy interior offers fine upholstery and appointments, including the new instrument panel grouping all instruments directly under the driver's eye at the left, with a capacious compartment in the right side of the panel."

What a story he could "have told had any one been alert enough to get It before he was shipped off to Greece. A Robinson Crusoe, yet never out of sight of land, with constantly passing ships, with a great seaport in view, and himself under the eyefc of thousands. Like many stories, this one began with the war. When the fajatfs were replowed, and wooden crosses were replaced with marble, there remained In the roadstead of Brest a floating island. It was made of scores of those wooden ships built in frenzy when anything that would float was beyond price. Company ' Forgets Ship, , The wooden ships rotted for years and finally were sold and scattered over the world. Only one remained at anchor, far out in the vast harbor. It became a part of the harbor, like the lighthouses ,and the block rocks of the rugged Brittany coast. People forgot to wonder about it. It had been bought by a Greek company. The company had sent up an old fisherman from the Aegean sea to live on board, to be Its captain, crew, and, especially, Its watchman. They told him it would be only a few weeks and then a crew would come to take the ship away. His salary came In the mall. Once a week he rowed ashore to buy provisions. Speaking no language but Greek, he had to buy in sign language; but his wants were simple, and It was easy to satisfy them. Then the Greek company failed-- forgot its ship, forgot its watchman. The poor fellow heard no news--received no pay. He could explain his troubles to nobody in Brest. Greece had no consul there; and the watchman had no money to go elsewhere. He never had learned to write. He waited for the crew that never came. For him the simplest solution was to live where he was. The one thing he knew well how to do was to fish. Nolwdy knows exactly how long he lived on flsh. Day after day, week after week, month after month, and so Into years, . the exile, lived alone on his woodejr boat, watching the world pass, but receiving no news from it, his only companions a few ship's rats leading an existence as meager as his own. Crusoe Is Rescued. Gradually his clothe^ fell from him. When there was no more mending them he made rough garments from old sail cloth he found on board. So it would have gone until the wooden hulk sank from old age had not a curious harbor navigator decided to board the lonely ship that never sailed. He found there a being as completely separated from humanity as if he had been marooned on the original Crusoe's^isle--who bad forgotten how to speak even the language to which he was born. IJy way of the harbor authorities a report was made eventually to the Greek consul in Paris, and one day a messenger in smart boulevard attire arrived at Brest. He was motorboated out to the anchored ship. He brought ashore the exile, long haired, silent, ragged, barefooted, and frightened, bought him some store clothes, and took him away. ^ Rack in Greece somewhere tht old man Is telling fc atoty with % mw Ceroid tongue. : ' PAUtftafr STARK IN NEW MYSTERY THRILLER The latest mystery play "Zombie", which is now playing to capacity audiences at the Adelphi theatre, Chicago, is unlike all previous mystery dramas, for they have been written around fiction. "Zombie" is founded upon truths; revealing astounding conditions in the little island of Haiti. The natives of the South Sea Island have warded off civilization, such as we interpret it, and find greater satisfaction in their ancient rites and strange rituals of voodooism. In "Zombie" the author, Kenneth Webb, has portrayed actual happenings as he found them in the Republic of Haiti, thewwhites and their frantic efforts to undo the teachings of voodooism which are almost swallowing them up. The noted writer, W. B. Seabrook, in his book "The Magic Island" has devoted many pages to "Zombies/"-- he call them "Souless humans"-- having eyes that do not see and bodies that walk as if alive but have no feeling." This strange phenomena has baffled scientists; it does exist to the horror and fear of those on this romantic island. Haiti, the only spot on earth where the grave is not the last resting spot, is the locale of this thrilling ami sensational play; a drama of tropical love and hate, where adventure, romance and gasping situations follow one another in rapid succession. The cast of "Zombie" is headed by the famous ntovie a«*tress, Pauline Starke, supported by a distinguished array of players direct from the Biltmore theatre, New York, where the play was first produced.

By his Industry be gained the favor of his master, who gave him his daughter Magia Pollla In marriage. To Increase his income he applied himself to the culture of bees. Vergil in his Georglcs dwells on bee culture. rHOM A g p tlfH / • gp How Annoying A woman explorer says Ithe saddest moment In the jungle is when the permanent wa ve finally goes.

Liked Disorderly Hair The celebrated Norwegian author, Ibrien, loved to keep his hair In disorder and always carried a little toilet case, containing a looking glass apd a comb, attached to the lining of his gray hat. He would often remove his hat to look into the mirror to see how his hair was lying and if not rotigb enough to suit would use the eorab to give it the requisite tangle.

Original "Bureaus" The word bureau is French and literally means an office, desk or writing table. The word is derived from the old French "burel," which was originally a kind of brownish material with which writing tables were covered, hence the word has come to be used of an office where business is transacted.
