WASHINGTON. Nov 2S,-Further
proof of the oft-repeated statement
that the American public is the
greatest newspaper reading public in
the world developed to- day when the
Department of Commerce issued a
bulletin dealing with the printing and
publishing industry of the United
States.
In 1909 there were 31,445 separate
establishments in the industry; 1885,
446 persons engaged in the industry,
of which 25S,434 were wage-earners,
and the capital invested amounted
to $3.50. S45,7OS. New York State led
all others in printing newspapers, pc
riodicals and books 1t employed
one fourth of all the wage earners
and sent forth three-tenths of the
total products. Illinois ranked sec
ond and Pennsylvania third.
There were $500 daily publications
reported in 1909 as compared with
2.452 in 1904 and 1926 in 1899. OF
these $500 dailies. 760 were morning

GUESSING ON THE FORD

By what date this year will the Ford
Motor Co., haye sold its seasons gigantic
output of 100000 cars?
This question is causing much specu-
lation among students of the automobile
market and especially those closely in
touch with things at the Ford factory.
Two years ago the Ford Co., built
during its manufacturing year more
than 10000 cars and had them entirely
sold before the middle of June. Last
year the production was nearly doubled
and again June saw the last order taken
for delivery until the end of the manu-
featuring year. This year the Ford pro.
duction has been more than doubled
and if history repeats itself. and there
seems every reason for its doing so, June
c more should see the last order
taken this year for a Ford car.
So basing this prediction simply on
past occurrences it would be an almost
safe bet that the output will be sold out
by June or possibly earlier.

DEBATE won BY

Contest Friday Night Won by
Langdon From Park River

The much delayed, postponed and
advertised inter high school debate be-
tween Park River and Langdon took
place last Friday evening. 1t was strict
~ in accord with the rules and regula-
tions governing che state high school
league. As Park River d~efaulted Janu-
AIRY the tenth to Langdon, this being
the date of the postponed December
series, last Fridays debate in no way
affected the state league.
Park River last November chose to
debate the negative wherefor it was in
cumbent on Langdon to take the
affirmative and choose tho place for the
debate. The state question read, resolv.
ed that the federal government should
own and operate a parcels post express.
John Robertson, Gertrude Wienecke
and Hester Sparkling represented the
Langdon team, Herman Thompson
Clarence Bateman and Walter Doug
herty defended the Park River side.
The affirmative hinged it's debate or
these arguments: First, that the pre-

should be extended to include parcel

ALPINE CURLING.

Almost Surgical Skill Used on the Ice
to Make It Perfect.
Scotch players regard the conditions
of Alpine curling as somewhat too lux
urious. The ice is almost too perfect,
and the tactics that proved successful
on the rough ice Of a Scottish pond
have to be abandoned in favor of more
subtle methods.
The ordinary visitor to the Alps has
very little idea of the science and work
which are necessary to insure a good
rink. and the Scotch curler who has
been accustomed to the rough ice form
ed by a few nights frost is somewhat
startled when he sees an army Of ice
men working through the night. A
rink in the Alps is a costly business.
The ground is carefully leveled in the
spring, and after the first fall Of snow

down as evenly as possible. The flood

This was proved by a clever expert
ment. The discovery of this was due
to Rudolph Bauman. perhaps the best
iceman in the Alps. he filled two
wooden tubs with water, and the first
froze hard in a night. The second was
allowed to fill gradually, drop by drop,

A BADLY ABUSED WORD.
Many Base Uses to Which "lnfinite" Is

Many Base Uses to Which "lnfinite" Is
Put Nowadays.
What is happening to the word inf
nite?" 1t used to have great and rare
associations and serve great needs.
Now l meet it everywhere and with
every possible application. One bon
net is infinitely more beautiful than
another, one brand of wine infinitely
preferable to the text. He has an inf
Rite desire to see her: she would inf
nitely prefer a hobble skirt to one with
cores. One novel is infinitely superior
to its predecessor; a character in it in
initely prefers game to domestic fowl.
There is no association too trivial for
it, no use too petty. Our books and
our newspapers alike bristle with mis-
used ''infinites." The word, like Lau-
renee Sterne and Lord Byron. has be-
come a social literary success, and no
worse fate can befall a great author or
n great word. 1t is taken up by the
fashion papers and by society journals,
and this seasons styles are usually in
dnitely prettier than the last.
Infinitely pretty!
Not only careless journalistic folk
who like to produce an emphatic effect
at any cost-are guilty. My learned
friends put it to common use. So do
l when I forget. We are infinitely
obliged nowadays to one who gives us
a lift of a few blocks and infinitely
grateful for our Christmas presents.
Our greatest and best authors vie with
one another In bringing this great word
down from its high estate, and it Is

fastidious man of letters lecturing in

ments would be infinitely more divert

AS this article is written at the close
OF the old year the record of the COM
pany for the first three months OF it's
seasons business are nearly complete.
At the time of this writing, although
building and shipping approximately
600 cars per day, the company already is
away behind in cars to till orders.
Since Oct. l, the company has actual
ly shipped from its Detroit factory over
$4,000 cars. 1t has a total number of
sales to its credit since that time, in
Guiding these cars built and sent out,
those cars which should have been de-
livered but were not because they could
not be built fast enough, known as back
orders, and those booked for future
delivery of many thousands more and
this during the three months of the
year when it is generally conceded to be-
the hardest to make sales. Some idea
OF what this means in the way Of coming
sales may be gained when it is stated
that the aggregate of those for the
corresponding months last year was a
little over 10000 cars.
Another way of looking at the same
thing is by taking the number of cars
built in December 1912, more than H.
OOO and comparing that amount with the
total of a few over 10000 that were built
during the months of Otober, November
and December 1911. And it should be
borne in mind that last year the COM
pany SOLD its output before June l3.
During the week of Dec. 16 to 81 in
elusive, 1912, the record production
week in the history of the Ford Co., a
total of 3,3O8 cars were built and ship
ped from the Detroit factory. This is a
larger amount than was shipped during
the entire month OF December, 1911,
when bu: 1923 cars we're built and
shipped.
1t should also be considered that be.
cause Of various unforeseen circum-
stances the company has not been able
to build cars as rapidly as it will from
now on. 1t has now commenced in
earnest upon it's unprecedented manu-
featuring schedule which calls for a
complete car cal every forty-five seconds
of the working day during the entire
year, Although the week Of Dec. 1921
is a record thus far, it will have that
honor but a short time for each week
will see an increase in manufacture until
the maximum daily production shall
have been reached and maintained.
Orders are coming into the factory in
increasing volume from day to day.
Ford statesmen throughout the country
have instructions to impress upon their
prospectives the absolute necessity of
placing their orders for a car at once.
If they delay they face the alternative of
not getting it until late in the season.
When the rush months of spring arrive
it will be a case of first come first served
as fast as the cars are produced. And
unless you buy now you are likely to be
disappointed as regards first delivery.
They also are inclined to believe that
the cars will go ever faster than the
%proverblal shot cakes from now on be-
cause every one is this year of unequal
ed prosperity is we'll able to buy.
