sources which it's founder provided merely because it is offering a kind of education which the country very much needs"
 With very little schooling and typically self-made man, John Sim mons was known chiefly as the origi- nator fin New England of ready made clothing. He was a man of few words and he said little about his plan of founding a college. It is known, how ever. that in a period when women were supposed to have no vocation out side the home except teaching, he held the view that the capacity of women to profit by training was limited only by their opportunities.
 The conditions which followed the Civil war re- enforced his view. He saw many daughters, wives and mothers forced by the death of men in the war to accept miserably paid and often menial work and he realized that this was largely because they were totally untrained and could do no one thing well.

Simmons College Outgrows Request
 Made By Founder

BOSTON, Dec. 4.-The foresight of John Simmons, a Boston merchant who died fifty years ago, in providing in his will for the founding of a vocational college for women is declared by off, cials of Simmons college to have been amply demonstrated by the fact that the college now has & long waiting list of students seeking entrance and an equally long list of employers waiting for it's graduates. In connection with the fiftieth anniversary of John Sim mons bequest. the college has just started a campaign for an enlarged en- dowment fund.

John Simmons believed in the insur- anee value of vocational training for women. Whether a woman marries or does not. he held, a first-rate training for earning a livelihood is her best in- surance against disaster; until she marries she can be self supporting, and if after marriage, because of death, sickness or calamity in her family, she is compelled to return to work, she will be ready to meet the emergency.

PACKARD OUIETNESS
Why the Packard SingSx Quiet and Will Stay Quiet

BODY TO FRAME LINER. heavy cork linoleum liner $ in. thick and in wide. faced with heavy canvas forms continuous liner between the body and the frame. This will prevent body rumbles and the large area will make for permanence.
 HOOD RESTS. Note the Packard special leather hood rests along the radiator and cowl. These strips, of course, are repfaceable, but should last for great length of time and pre- vent hood noises.
 Notice that SPRINGS UNDER THE FRONT MOTOR SUPPORT BOLTS provide nexibility and that the radiator is also spring supported. These are both noise-stopping features
 Put your hand underneath the dashboard and notice the big STIFFENER RUNNING UP TO THE MIDDLE OF THE INsTRU-> MENT BOARD to keep it from vibrating.
 FRONT SPRING HOUSING While you are in this position, note the felt lining used for the housing at the rear end of the left front spring. Every possible point of rattle has some protection of this kind.
 THE ALUMINIUM BODY of the Single Six with it's substantial wooden frame with glued screws throughout gives a staunch construction which will not weave or loosen up.
 FELT STRIPS. On the Sedan roof, there is a continuous felt strip between the roof bows and the metal roof. and all points of contact are protected to prevent noise.
 GENERAL WORKMANSHIP. The above are only few of the many points which show that our engineers have given the question of quietness thorough consideration. Through out the car the fits between the different parts are kept to very close limits and the workman ship is maintained to the highest possible stand ard. all of which naturally tends to eliminate noise. We believe it is safe to say that, except for the Twin-Six, the Single-Six is the quietest car which has yet been produced and that the qualities of design and construction referred to above, mean that it will stay quiet for the longest period of time

CARBUREToR. The Packard Single Six carburetor is notable among other things for it's quietness. You have experienced noisy car buretors which whistle or back-fire and this is eliminated
 THE CLUTCH will not develop a rattle on account of the gear tooth fit in the spider and hub. The clutch throw-out is of the noiseless, ball-bearing type.
 The ToRoUE ARM, an unusual feature for a small car. greatly reduces the tendency of spring bolts to wear and develop rattle.
 THE STEERING GEAR has a ball thrust bearing with a take-up which eliminates rattle and will keep the steering quiet and smooth acting over the normal life of the car.
 THE TRANSMISSION has gears cut en- tirely on new machines of extreme accuracy and this will insure quietness. The counter shaft gears will remain in perfect alignment because they are all cut from a single forging and are mounted through shaft with Hyatt quiet bearings.
 THE THERMoID HARDY UNIVERSAL JOINTS cannot produce noise there metal to metal contacts.
 BRAKE RODS. The entire brake linkage on a Packard Single Six is under tension which tends to keep the connections quiet. In addi ton to this. the long rod has a noise proof bearing on the cross member of the frame.
 SPRING BOLTS. Threaded into the shaclxe farthest from the bolt head that by simply screwing up on the spring bolt, the shaclfes are pulled together, eliminating end play.
 TENDER MOUNTINGs. Show your pros pect how the front lenders are fastened to the frame through a generous strip of leather and to the running boards in the same manner; how the rear lenders fastened to the body afar and mi -fr in and to the running board with a leather strip. We doubt if any other automobile manufac- turer goes to such extremes in preventing fender noises.
