There are few kinds of competition
which do not leave a sting.
Never was there a school prize won
but what 1t left many a sore heart.
Some day We'll learn to give prizes
not because somebody succeeded IN
getting way beyond his fellows, but
because he managed to keep close to
them.

competition but cooperation.
Lectures that inspire" will send out
men and women not to "do" their fell

Success will consist no In beating

The only one you should beat is
yourself.

New Boulevard to Run
from Hanscom Park
West to Ehnwood Park

Secretary Kvenild Of the city plan
ming commission is now working out
a plan whereby the commission ex-
poets to take steps this year for wild
ening Center street and building a
boulevard from Hanscom to Elm
wood park.
The Center street project contem-
plates widening the street from
Thirty-second avenue to Seventy
second street which crosses
Center at the Little Pappio.
The boulevard proposal is for a
new road from Woolworth and Thir-
ty-second streets cross Seventy-sec-
ond, the Field club grounds
through the county poor farm, en-
tering Elmwood park from the
southeast.
Secretary Kvenild's idea in which
he is backed by the entire planning
commission is for the city to ac-
quire the necessary property for car
rying out these two improvements.
Mr.. Kvenild says the necessary
land can practically all be obtained
this year free of charge to the city.
Maps are now about completed
showing how these improvements
are to be worked out.

Franklin Management
Working Out an Ideal
Manufacturing Plan

Transition of the facilities at the
Franklin plant in Syracuse from a
war-production to peace-time motor
car output, is going on at full swing.
Just as tremendous changes had to
be made to adjust machinery and
floor space to the manufacture of
Rolls-Royce and Hispano-Suiza air
plane engine work, so has this re-
adjustment been taken as an oppor-
tunity to replace methods that were
found to be good before the war but
which have been much improved by
the experience with war work.
The Franklin management is now
working out an ideal manufacturing
layout after a plan which was stud
led considerably in advance, and
which minimizes the moving of
stock, makes supervision a good
deal easier and much closer, and
tends especially towards the high
est quality of work. The plant is
now arranged on the progressive
group plan, by which ali parts ell
tering into each principal unit are
machined and assembled in their en-
tirety in distinct departments. All in
spection and storage of stock is also
unit with such departments.
A special feature Of the rearrange-
ment is that the Franklin factory is
now an ideal daylight plant. Those
departments which have been on the
ground floors Of several buildings
are being transferred to lighter quar-
tiers, as it is now possible to utilize
for the first time certain plant addi-
tions that have heretofore always
been occupied for war work oper-
atoms.
An idea of the extent that facilities
are being extended is given in the
addition Of $4,000 feet Of floor space
devoted strictly to improvements in
painting processes. The Franklin
company has established an indie
pendent department in which special
colors are handled.

Country Purchasers
Demand as Much Style
as People in Cities


Zone of the new changes we have
noticed in the buying tendencies of
motor car purchasers is that of
country purchasers demanding as
much style in their motor cars as
city buyers" said Carl Changstrom
of the Standard Motor Car company,
After some recent preliminary
organization work to sound out the
ideas of prospective buyers in the
suburban and small towns in differ
ent parts of the country we found
that on an average people in in
creasing numbers are DESTROYS Of
getting away from the stereotyped
model of car, and are more than
willing. to pay for something that is
distinctive in appearance and meas
ures up to their present idea Of what
motor car should look and per-
form like.
I'm other words, it appears that
because they spend most of their
time in the country is no reason why
they shouldn't drive cars that com
bine style with utility, comfort with
exclusiveness."

In the great masses of troops that

The world war for democracy, in
fact, was almost devoid of person

Like all rules, however, this has
its exceptions, among the most not
able being Eddie Rickenbacher, the
automobile race driver who became
the ace of all American aces. While
his rank is only that of a captain,
he will return to this country a ma

the service. ..

"They write that after he had

Construction on the new building
will begin as soon as weather con-
