The Fine Light Weight Franklin Car
Eliminates These
LIZ Trouble Making Parts

The Franklin Is ready for use at all times
it does minimize trouble and repairs; and
over and above that. the elimination of this and
other unnecessary weight enables it to attain
high degree of motoring economy.
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1918-12-22

a MEXICAN motorists arc well aware that
the trend in automobiles is toward greater
mechanical simplicity. Forit is plain that you
arc bound to have less trouble, if your car has
/swer pa,ts thar gIve rpnbh. No more strik-
ing illustration of this fact than the above pic
ture could be found. 1t shows the III parts
incident to water-cooling.
Why Complication Means
Trouble
Aside from the mere waste of weight, this
mass OF unnecessary mechanism inevitably
means work, worry and expense. 1t means
the frequent annoyancc-not to mention re-
pairs-of leaky and frozen radiators, cracked
waterjackcts. clogged and leaking pipes-all
the countless other wintcr-and-summer ills
that watercooling develops.
The Franklin-America's Standard Light
Air Cooled Car-I enhrry J1re from this need
less trouble, for its Direct Air Cooling consists
simply of powerful turbine fan that applies
swift current of air direct to each cylinder and
cools it. in winter and summer, in high or low
attitudes. under any motoring conditions.
And motorists today arc demanding car
that they can rely on-that is ,sady for use at
all hines. They arc no longer tolerant of the
car that must be coddled-that is in the repair
shop just when you need it most, or frozen
into uselessness whenever the mercury drops.

Unnecessary Parts Mean
Weight and Waste

In the illustration above, the radiator
weighs IS pounds. This and the pile of super
fluous metal with the 48 pounds of water it re-
quires and the heavier supports, constitute a

through the noon intermission. Many
superintendent have made this stip-
ulation in engaging teachers with the
result that in most Of the progressive
school systems of the State the teach
er remains at the schoolhouse with
the pupils and directs their lunch
and activities through the noon time.
Many such teachers, also. are
having the hot noon lunch in
their schools. 1t Is urged that
every superintendent this fall see
to it that such noon supervision he
in force in his schools and that 1T
of the dinner. In presenting this
matter to their teachers, superinten-
dents will be likely to secure more
ready cooperation if it can be shown
the teachers that such service, instead
, of adding to their duties, will actually
make the school work much easier.
Some of the arguments along this line
which appeal to teachers are:
'Disciplinc of the afternoon session
is much easier where pupils have no.
been allowed to get into a state Of
noisy disorder at noon; beginning the
afternoon session, the schoolroom will
be in an orderly condition, free from
crumbs, scattered bits of food, a dirty
floor and ruined board work; the
teacher is freed from the difficult task
of determining who is responsible for
damages to schoolhouse and furniture
and for DETACHMENT Of out buildings
things likely to occur in the unsu-
pervised noon hour; pupils who have
had warm appetizing lunch are both
mentally and physically in a condi-
ton to do much better school work in
the afternoon than those who have
eaten a cold. soggy lunch. much IF
which is often consumed before the
noon hour has arrived.
Miss Hale advises superintendent
to tell such teachers who are at n
loss what to say to parents in Sc
curing their cooperation, that much
Jess of the mothers time will be taken
in preparing the child's lunch basket,
since the hot lunch at noon will
greatly reduce the articles Of food
necessary for the lunch; every think
ing mother readily agrees that tina
cold dinner, day after day. may very
easily ruin the digestion of the child
for all time. Most mothers today
realize that safeguarding the health
Of their children is their own parti-
cular task and that the health Of the
child is Of the first Importance.
The school lunch also teaches use
full lessons. as how to properly set
table. use the knife. fork and spoon
and to eat properly; care for utensils
and how to prepare simple. nourish-
ing dishes.

The department will be pleased to
furnish recipes for simple dishes and

Miss Hale states that whether or
not a hot dish is served with the
MONDAY lunch, parents and teacher
should be led to see that it is abso-
lutely necessary that the teacher shall
remain at noon at the school and that
she know where her pupils are and in
what engaged. 1t is at this time that
most Of the social relaxation occurs
and at time when the childs morals
are undetermined. Too great pres

moved.

SUPERVISED NOON
HOUR FOR SCHOOLS

Miss Florence NJ. Hale, the agent
for rural education. connected with
the Maine Department OF Education,
has prepared very interesting state
ment regarding the establishment in
cur public schools of supervised
noon hour. She reviews the condi-
tons Of the hit-or-miss lunch hour,
with It's lack Of comfort and danger to
the health Of the pupils and the ad-
vantages Of having the school lunch
hour under the charge and super
vision Of some one competent and in :
terested. Miss Hale says:
with the coming Of the winter
season. the supervised noon hour
should be matter Of special
concern to Maine superintendent.
They in July. 1913 at the Castine con-
ference endorsed such plan in
schools where it is necessary for pu-
pills to bring their lunch and remain
