THE ENGLISH PLANT
OF THE FORD COMPANY

Every once in a while" said Tex
Brownell of the Ford Motor Car company.
IA story appears about the mammoth
Ford plant at Detroit which seems al
most incredible. Occasionally, mention is
made of some of the foreign branches
of the Ford company. but no adequate
idea of their magnitude has been given.
\ search of the records indicates that
the Manchester. Eng. plant of the Ford
company. is one of the largest single in
dustries in Great Britain and that It is
as much Il marvel on the other side as
the parent Ford plant Is in this country
The Manchester plant is located at
Trafford Park a suburb adjacent to the
famous Manchester ship canal. The parts
of Ford cars shipped from Detroit, Phil
adelphia or New York or from Ford.
Ont, 90 directly to the factory via the
ships which run up the Mersey river from
Liverpool and einto the canal. Chassis
sets are shipped from this country to

are made in the English plant aud some
accessories are bought there in the open
market.
There are approximately 1900 men en-
ployed in the plant and the production
this year will run between 5000 and 10Gds
cars. This output is equal to the COM
hined OUTPUT of the three largest auto
manufacturers of Great britain. There is

Revival Is Big Success

Easily the biggest London success
since "Milestones" is the revival of
diplomacy" which Gerald du Maurier
has been doing at Wyndham's theatre.
And its success has earned small
fortune for two people, Du Maurier and
Sir Squire Bancroft. The former prob

he is engaged in the highly specula-
tive business of play producing, but to
Sir Squire it comes largely as ''ail

less welcome. Sir Squire, who was a
famous actor manager generation
ago, retired with one of the largest
fortunes ever made in the profession.

P0PPET VALVE MOTOR

For several years the motoring world

May Suggest to Local Board
of Education to Establish
System in all Richmond
Public Schools.

Prof. John F. Thompson, head of the
department of science in the high
school, has returned from a vacation
at Cleveland and Grand Rapids, where
he has been studying the school gar
den system and also the sand dune for
nation in Michigan. On June 80,
Prof. Thompson went to Cleveland,
where he remained for a week study
ing the work of Miss Louise Kline
Miller in the school gardens of that
city.
Every school has a plot of ground
adjoining or near it," said Prof
Thompson, where the pupils are
taught to grow ordinary vegetables of
all kinds, under the direction of
teacher, just as if it were an ordinary
class. Miss Miller has nine assistants
who pillow, cultivate and prepare the
ground for the planting of the seeds,
which is done by the students After
the vegetables begin to grow they
must be watered, weeded and hoed,
and when they are ripe they are pick
ed by the children and sold at the To-
cal market, the proceeds being given
to the children. The vegetables raised
are beans, peas, radishes, onions,
sweet corn, and everything which
could be cultivated by children in this
work. Besides fifteen different places
where this work is supervised by Miss
Miller, she has charge of the decora-
ton of the school yards and there is
not a school grounds in Cleveland that
is not scientifically laid out.
Il went to Cleveland to investigate
this work and decide whether it could
be established in Richmond. AS far
as l can find out there is not city in
Indiana that has adopted this branch
of the work and only a very few in
some of the other states have tried it.
