TELLS CUT IN
TRACTOR PRICE
BY WIRELESS
Henry Ford Talks With
Dealers In All Parts
of Country

The first announcement of the
big cut in the price of the Ford
son tractor was made thru Mr..
Henry Ford's radio message
Thursday evening, January 26th,
from our Dearborn radio station
to Ford dealers attending a Ford
son Tractor Industrial show in
Cleveland, Ohio. The context Of
his talk. which was verv plainly
heard in Cleveland and surround
ing districts, is quoted below:
at is certainly Wonderful to sit
here in my Office and say few
words of greeting to you Ford
dealers Of the Cleveland territory.
The radio is an outstanding tri-
butte to mans inventive genius.
Being a farmer, | am vitality in
terested in all farm Improvements
and with this in mind, | have
spent years of time and millions in
money in the development Of the
Fordson tractor, which | really
think is one Of the biggest pos
sible helms to profitable farming.
CAS- a general thing, the farm
ers have bcttered their financial
condition durinr the past Is
months but the production costs
Of farm products are still too close
to selling prices TO allow fair mar
gins Of profit. What the farmer
must do to mt his business an I
payiao basis is to lower the cost
Of planting, cultivating, and har-
vesting of his crops. 1t is plea
sure therefore to announce thru
Ford dealers that we have decided
that the tractor price should again
be reduced, and in considering a
reduction, naturally my thought
has been to make it possible for
the LARGEST number of farmers to
share in the benefits to be de
rived thru the use of our tractor,
and consequently effective tomo =
row, January 27, 1922 the new
price of the Fordson tractor will
be 1895, f. O. B. Detroit. This
is a cut of $3.50 off the present
price.
81 am glad to have had this on
portunity Of talking with you and
have by best wishes"

Town Hall Little
More Than a Joke

fCon tinued from mage one)
of the barren and entirely made
quate accommodations that we
now possess. Our checklist con-
tains nearly 5000 voters and if Il
tenth of them tried to attend the
March meeting the room would be
we'll filled and the antiQuated set
tees filled before the meeting be-
gan. Our present town hall was
good enough for the voters when
they could be accommodated, but
is wholly inadequate for the bust
ness of our growing town.
Again, the municipality would,
have well-equipped theater which
could be rented at a moderate
rental to any local organization
that wanted to give a play OF to
the numerous travelling compan-
les that now pass US by. For
many years Northampton, Mass,
had the unique distinction of own
in the only municipal theater in
the United States and it has been
successfully managed for many
years. Today if local organiza-
ton wants d hall it has to .ov
high rentals for what it gets and
owing to certain restriction can
not always get the hall it wants.
There are many offerings made
to local organizations for moving
pictures that could be accepted if
we had municipal theater where
they could be Qiven and where our
boys and girls could see travel
ogues, nature pictures and some of
the famous plays, minus the rev
elly of the cabaret, the abbrevi-
ated costumes, the soul kiss, the
shooting irons and the thrills of
our modern sex plays. The eX-
pertinent is we'll worth trying.
And once more, if the munich
pality as the owner of the Colon
ial property decided in the years
to come that times were good
enough for a modern 100000
building it could probably sell the
Colonial for what it cost them and
have in the years between an in
come bearing piece of property,
ready at any time to be wholly
used for town and village pur-
poses if Uncle Sam ordered the
fire station moved. 1t looks to me
as if our efficient town clerk and
town treasurer had started some
thing in the right direction.

MOTHER, when one of the

gerous to do so. Some have
been known to rupture the

Don't be beguiled by the out

into the formula. Calomel is
seldom necessary; salts,
minerals, coal tar, never!
Unlike these, DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is admirable for
children, as it is for grown
people. too. Mothers have
been giving it to children for
80 years. They know it does
not grippe, and is free from
narcotics. The formula is on

Beaded georgette seems always

newer materials for gowns Of the
more formal kind and when it is
