Features
Highest in Quality Maintain
The quality of a motor car is largely determined by the
materials out of which it is built.
Take, for instance, eteels — which comprise the major
portion of the materials used in automotive manufac-
turing today. No automobile can have more durable or
more satisfactory steels than you get in a Ford.
The upholstery used in Ford closed cars contains a much
larger percentage of wool than is ordinarily specified.
Genuine polished plate glass is used for Ford windows
and windshields.
The story is the same for every item of material U6ed in
Ford manufacture. It is logical that such extreme care in
the selection of materials should result in a car that is
without an equal when it comes to enduring service.
Lowest in Price
Conditions that are unique in the automotive industry
make Ford prices possible.
Every manufacturing operation i6 under direct control
of the Ford Motor Company. Iron is taken from Ford
mines in Michigan; coal from the Company's mines in
Kentucky and West Virginia. Ford glass plants produce
the glass for windshields and windows; wood comes from
Ford timber tracts. Raw materials and finished products
are carried over Ford-owned transportation routes; coke
ovens, blast furnaces, a steel mill, foundries and saw mills
—all are part of this complete organization.
Under any other circumstances, Ford cars would cost a
great deal more than they do.

The palace of justice in Paris, a por-
tion of which will he set aside shortlj
as a miispum of relics from the Revo- !
lution, lias a curious old custom. I
Every night one of the main doors is ;
left ajar in obedience to an order of
March. 1018, when Louis XITI pro- j
vided that it should remain open per- j
petually. "so that my subjects may be .
able to seek Justice s.t all hours of thr> |
day and night." Through revolution, j
empire, kingdom and two republics
lids order has been scrupulously car-
ried out. But the meaning of the cus-
tom seems almost forgotten. "The
Man With the Iron Mask," tta<s pen
name of a reporter of a Parisian daily,
presented himself at the door in the
small hours of the night for admit-
tance. He was promptly thrown out
by the watchman and told to clear off
if he did not want to enter by the
prisoner's gate in the morning. In
Petrograd they had a similar incident
in czarist days. The Empress Eliza-
beth once saw a fine flower in her gar-
den. As she was on the way to a court
function she had no time to pick It,
but ordered a soldier to stand guard
over it. The empress forgot about the
flower, but three centuries later there
was still a sentinel placed regularly
each hour of the night and day at the
•pot where the flower had been.—
Pierre Van Paassen, in the Aalanta
Constitution.

Earth's Music Wasted
on Prehistoric Man?
Prehistoric man, who slew the
megatherium, didn't call it that. More
like, he designated it as the "Oont," or
j something brief and resounding. One
syllable was good enough for him. He
; undoubtedly knew no other than one-
I syllable speech.
| Notwithstanding his own meager
I contributions to the music on earth,
\ primitive man must have heard and
1 weighed some. The birds sang in tho
j bowers as sweetly as they do now.
What impression did that nightingale
make on his small and fuzzy ear? Did
the melodious notes touch his rudi-
mentary soul, or did he merely want
to eat the nightingale?
The more often we speculate on the
first men, the greater sympathy we feel
for them. We should be greatly inter-
ested in one of them if he were in ex-
istence now. As it is, we have to be
content with studying some backward
races, still here.—St. Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat.

A Journalist, his wife and child, little
Alice, were having lunch together.
"Can I have some more pudding,
mother?" inquired the child.
"I think you have had enough," said
the Journalist; "it will make you ill."
His wife, as is tbe way of mothers,
said, "Let her have a little more."
"It will make her ill," insisted father.
Little Alice looked from one to the
other. Finally she sighed and said,
"The editor's decision is final."
