IMPROVEMENTS ON PACKARD

Scientific management IN the shop or

the lost motion. In business transporta-

Gus service. There should be the same
effort made in modern hauling to keep
the motor truck busy that Is made 10
keep the inside machine busy. First and
last. the modern motor truck IL a bush
ness COCA machine in every sense of
the word.
An idle machine cannot make money
nor save It.
This truism was constantly before the
designers of the new Packard motor
trucks. II was learned in building thou
sands Of trucks for 1S5 different lines Of
trade
Accordingly, there is to be found in the
new models every known safeguard
against the interruption OF service. The
unusual simplicity and accessibility are
contributing qualities to this end Among
many features tending to increase the
efficiency OF the vehicle or to prevent loss
of time in making repairs or adjustments
are, left drive with left side levers CEN
tralized control. three-point suspension of
motor and transmission units, an i'm
proved carburetor (hot water jacketed),

This is the ststment OF s. d. Walden,
vice president Of the Packard Motor Car
company, who knows the Lincoln High
way almost as intimately as he knows
the alphabet. When motoring across the
continent. this experienced driver no
longer carries a heavy supply of spare
parts This will be news to the lovers Of
the steering wheel. who have regarded
a transcontinental tour with mlsgvings,
Walden does not minimize the hard
work ana difficulties Inevitably involved
on such a trip. but declares reassur-
ingly: The worst sand stretches on the
Lincoln Highway are not over 100 yards
long. There are occasional pieces of road
more or less sandy and as much as
forty miles at a time. but the really
bad sand that Is TO be dreaded on ac-
count of its loose. shifting qualities, is
found only only three or four places.

Some one asks what has become OF the

A QUEER EXPRESSION.

Carl did something his uncle liked
and his uncle patted him on the head
and affectionately said: I'm proud
of you, son, you're a brick"
A brick?" echoed Carl That's a
queer expression. What does it mean?
1t sounds like hard name"
Yet it is a compliment" said the
uncle. 1T does seem queer to meas
ure your worth by a brick when
there is, nothing wonderful or fine
about that article, but it's meaning
comes from remote times"
Now, Inn going TO hear story .
cried Carl in glee, drawing his chair
up to his uncle's.
"The origin of the expression dates
back about nine hundred years before
the common era. 1t was in the time
of Lycurgus, the great Spartan ruler
He believed there was no necessity to
build wall around town if the sol
diers were properly trained to protect
the place. In those days nearly all
cities were protected by high walls.
"One day an ambassador from a
neighboring country came to see Ly
curgus and questioned his wisdom in
leaving the city so unprotected.
But we have walls replied the
ruler of Sparta, and il you win come

COMPENSATION.

Is it enough to give the best of life
To fill with hope the future of a
friend?
is it enough in torture to make strife,
Another's weak and needless ways
to mend?
Will it suffice, when all this life is
past,
To know we came when others
dared command;
Following drear Duty to the barren
last,
Nor boarded gifts with any .grudg.
ing hand?
To see the sneer and answer not, nor
groan?
To feel the tight chain wearing deep
and smile?
To laugh when sobs are near? To be
alone.
When the heart fails? To know the
little while
God gives us for our work? To pray
and fail?
To rise again and beg for love that
dies?
To see, thro' turning tears, the weary
trail
On dry, dead fields beneath hot
shining skies?
However salt the cup our lips must
taste,
1t is the glory of a warriors fate
To battle for the need that others
waste
And sink unconquered when hfe's
day grows late.
This must suffice: To struggle, hope
and die;
To carry crosses over thorny ways;
To know Gethsemanis; give love for
hate
Chirst's followers thus, through
Life's appointed days.

the simple ways that are feature of
the conversation of the other mem
bers of the domestic cast. The field
for Mothers activities is one so
rarely pre-empted by any member of
her family that it may safely be said
of Mother that she is the only woman
there is who is able to work off her
strenuosity without exciting unfavor-
able comment. This is because in
addition to the many listed duties
that afford domestic propaganda for
the magazines and home depart
ments, there are the innumerable
things that have no name. No one
knows what they are but Mother her
self, and she never mentions them
For compensation in this side line of
activity she is on the payroll of love-
and although the recent investigation
of the Industrial Commission made
no mention of it this payroll is the
longest one on record.
When Mother gets her eight hours
a day what are we all going to do?
Who is going to sit up at night to
unhook us when we come in late?
Who is going to take care of us when
we feel as if we must lie down on
the job? When we come home tired
and say we have a headache, what
shall we do if there is no one to tuck
us up in bed and no one to tiptoe
around and lower the shades and
hang things up and pour things in
and ask us how we feel now and tell
every one that we cannot be dis
turbed? Mother is the only one in
the family who knows how to live on
twenty-four hours a day and has
hours and hours to give to us when
we need them and never reminds us
of it, either. Who is going to listen
to our triumphs and our grievances,
be proud of us, sympathize with us,
ask us what we are going to wear
and what we want to eat? AS soon
as Mother gets her eight-hour day we
| shall all be the loser, for she will
have to hustle to get everything done
in eight hours, and we may have to
turn in and mend our own stockings
and sew on our own buttons. What
shall we all do when she is no longer
standing at our elbow waiting to give
us the very thing we need, even to a
piece of string?
But we needn't worry. Mother is
about the only one who has no soul
throttling problem. Even when we
disappoint her she stands for us
When we all get tired of the isms
and all the ologies, we run home
to her and in the peace and the poise
and the restfulness of her presence
we relax and realize completeness
We needn't worry about her eight
hour day, nor about her joining the
labor unions, nor the single takers
nor the socialists, nor the anarchists
And we needn't worry about her hav
ing the ballot for fear she will use ii
in the wrong way either.

A child's library has many attrac-
