"GOd gave unto Solomon laTgeness OF
heart even as sands upon the seashore.' %
These words from the Old Testament
were applied to the late Edward Everett
Hale today by the Rev. L. G. B. Pierce,
the Presidents pastor. when he preach
ed the sermon at the service in OBJ
servance Of the birthday of the dis

Many persons stood in the gallery and
hearC what regular attendants at the
church say was one Of the most eloquent
sermons ever preached by the Rev. DR..
Pierce.
zone thinks of DR.. Hale as being
mentally fashioned after the Gothic
style OF architecture" DR.. Pierce said.
'One could compare him TO a great tenn
pie with A great area on the first floor
and whose towers ascended almost into
the heavens above"
DR.. PierCe's sermon abounded in strIk-
ing comparisons and the deep regal in
which he held DR. Hale was frequently
Fridenced.

had a supreme disgust BY tha- he
meant that ne didn't think the saying
OF pretty things for their own sake was
worth while. But for literature and
music and painting as expressions of
human experience he had the deepest
regard. He could afford this contempt
for he has contributed some Of the most
beautiful passages 10 the literature OF
our land

The principal Improvement that has
the past five years has been tremen-
dous increase in its reliability. This
has been brought about by the con-
sistent development of the various
power and power transmitting ele-
ments into logical road vehicle.
In general design the automobile Of
today is development Of the foreign
automobile of five years ago, except
that the six cylinder engine has be-
come practically standard. The de-
signer has made a constant effort
First, to increase reliability.
Second, to simplify design.
Third, to discard delicate mechan-
isms.
Fourth, to eliminate fnterlock de-
vices.
Fifth, to reduce weight through use
Of better materials.
Sixth, to reduce cost of maintenance
for fuel, fabrication and repairs.
Seventh, to make the passenger more
comfortable through good spring sus-
pension and suitable design of bodies.
The one factor which has perhaps
most Of all assisted the development of
the automobile has been the produc-
ton at reasonable cost of steels that
are exceptionally strong. Closely linked
to this development Of better steels
has come the development of the an
nular ball bearing, which has helped
to increase reliability.
In the designing of a modern motor
car plain bearings are proportional to
have long life, all bearings are OF lib
eral sizes for the loads thrown upon
