HENRY FORD
POINTS the WAY

Henry Ford is both great manu-
facturer and a great merchant. He
could never have become the great
producer he is il he had not been
great merchant Ii is because Ford
is the outstanding genius of the auto
mobile world as a merchant that he
has become the outstanding genius of
the automobile world as producer.
The Ford automobile is primarily
what il has come to be because Ford
had greater genius than any of his
competitors in the distribution of his
car. With the price right and his
selling organization right the produce
ton of his car became matter of
ways and means of keeping up with
the demand. And as the output in
creased the cost of production de-
creased, and as this decrease in cost
was deducted by the great merchant
from the selling price the demand au-
tomatically increased.
In his early days Henry Ford was
a mechanic at the bench. 1t was as a
mechanic that he dreamed out the
now world famous Ford car. He had
never been merchant had never fan
cied that he was endowed with the
qualities OF merchant though II was
as a merchant that he was and is
nothing short of genius of the first
order.
And now he has given us fresh evil
dence of his vision as matchless dis
tributor of the products of his man,
moth workshop in the drastic slash
ing of prices to pre-war levels. In
this stroke Henry Ford has pointed
the way for all other producers, all
other merchants. The country is
headed for lower prices, pre-war
prices or prices Whereabouts.
No man, no body of men, no as
ISOLATION of interests working in col
fusion or corporation however gigan-
tic, can hold up these unnatural and
exorbitant war prices. What Henry
Ford has done in his far reaching
vision other men must do or they
cannot survive.-N. Y. Sun and Her

A PREACHER WHO
SHOULD TRAVEL

One OF the presumably popular
preachers who hold their meetings in
theatres had this jeremaid to offer last
Sunday:
"All attempts to disguise the
utter collapse OF the churches have

The churches all are alike. mere
survivals of the past. The war
marked the climax of long per-
iod of moral and spiritual decay,
which has now come to its COM
pletion in empty churches. discre-
dited creeds and neglected rit-
uals"
A preacher who talks like that needs
a vacation. Not the old fashioned
vacation that the clergyman took
when he went to visit the Holy Land.
but vacation in which he could go
about the United States and see
things.
Let him go east as far as Quoddy
Head west as far as Hiram Johnson S
veranda, north as far as the Mime
sofa lakes and south as far as the
Florida keys-and wherever he goes,
whether it be Pennsylvania mining
town, Kansas farming centre or a
Texas oil field he will find the
churches still on the job.
There are churches into which the
preacher will see the people going at
) in the morning and at in the even
ing. He will see often at single
church service more children than live
in the whole theatrical district where
he breaches.

and the existing forms of religion are
failures are the men who tell you
that nobody reads the Bible or Shake

APPETITE OF ENGLISH
WOMEN ON INCREASE

London, Oct. 2-English women
have dropped the famous bun and
milk" luncheon and are now eating
substantial meals, according to John
Pearce, pioneer of chain restaurants
in London.
Before women and girls began to
take big part in English business
life they ate lightly and sat for hours
over ten-cent meal. Now they eat
steaks and pies in hurry
The profits of London restaurant
men are going up, says Mr.. Pearce,
because all classes of people are
spending more on food than they did
before the war.

WILL FIGHT
FOOTBALL ST0PWATCH
BY HENRY FARRELL

| Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, March '11-Rising
from its November grave, the ghost OF
football will stalk around tomorrow
for a brief airing in the world of sport
when the intercollegiate committee
gathers here to talk over new rules.
Recent talk in collegiate circles has
routed the belief of last fall that the
present game was good enough to
stand and would not be tampered with
by the rules committee.
Conservative Harvard has taken the
fore in radical suggestions with rec
ommendation to regulate the length
Of the game not by the tick of the
watch but by the number of plays.
Harvey r. Coffin, Harvard graduate,
acting, it is said, with the approval of
Percy Haughton, Walter Camp and
others, suggests that period consists
of forty plays not counting trys for
goals and touchdowns and penalties.
Coach John Hiesman, gridiron tu-
tor of Penn and former coach of Geor-
gia Tech favors the adoption of this
amendment as a means of preventing
stalling. The plan has opposition.

injecting, is against it.

Mahan and others made football his

tion of Harvard's is all the more radi-

touchdown would bring the ball INTO
