FORD SLASHES
TRACTOR PRICE
Announces Single Drop OF $3.50
New Price $500 Delivered
On Farm

The most Sensational price cut Of
readjastment times was made today
by henry Fora on his NFordson trac.
tors. the announcement being given
out locally By the Americus Automo-
bile company, dealers here. The Ford
son is cut from 1925, { o. b. Detroit,
10 1895, q drop of $3.50 at one time.
With freight and delivery charges
added, the price placed on the farm
Will, be S4s0 from this time forward,
1t is announced.
News from Detroit is that retail
sales OF Ford cars, trucks and Ford
son tractors have again exceeded the
million mark for the year 1921.
The Ford factory and assembly
plant production figures reached
total of l,050,T40 cars, trucks and
tractors for the year, with retail
sales by dealers approximating l,093,-
600, which in the United States alone
surpassed 1920 retail sales record by
1928 Ford cars and trucks.
The Ford compaSg says the out
lock for 1922 is decidedly optimistic.
In fact, concrete evidences already
exist in that car and truck retail
sales for December, 1921, exceeded
December, 1920, sales by almost Is
per cent, and Fordson tractor retail
sales for the same periods show an,
increase of over 100 per cent for
December, 1921, as we'll as an liz
crease over the total tractor sales for
the month of November.
These facts seem to indicate that
not only are the farmers buying more
freely, but that the general public is
becoming more responsive and re-
ceptiye.
Another point brought out by
comparison of production figures for
the past two years shows that Ford
enclosed cars are gaining in populari.
ty, as % per cent of the 1921 pro-
duction were sedans and coupes az
against a total of l8 per cent for the
year previous.

Msry's Eyes.
Mary Pickford has the most I'M
usual eye of any person have ever
met. Several months ago I passed
an entire day with her and Douglas
Fairbanks. The thing that intrigued
me then, as it intrigued me upon this
later meeting, was Mary's eyes. |
couldn't define their color.
On the previous meeting they
seemed to constantly change from
empyrean blue to an emerald green.
We We're in a yacht on the water
then.
Today, as l talked to her, her eyes
seemed yellow. l told her of my OBJ
.servation and asked what color her
eyes really are.

SELF" she answered. "Ihey seem to
reflect whatever color that is about
me. think they are yellowish
brown today because of this dress /
am wearing. Sometimes my eyes
are very dark, sometimes blue, some
times gray. think that probably
they have no color of their own, at
all. They just reflect color"

BY JAMES w. DEAN
DOWNRIGHT. 1927


NEW Jan. 20. - Mary Pickford,
40 years from now, the bloom of
youth faded, the gold of her hair
run to silver, the light of her eye
dimmed-how will life look to her?
That's what have just been dis
cussing with Mary herself.
IF live that long" she began.
"Oh, l don't know. An old age with
out children about is horrible, the
loneliness of it all. Certainly shall
want to have children about me if |
am to live to ripe old age.
Youth is the greatest thing in the
world. The mother lives her youth
over again in the youth of her chill
dren. And so if there are children
about when am old in years ] shall
not be old at heart.
81 think j shall live to be an old,
old woman if don't worry. Worry
is the greatest affliction person
can bave just as happiness is the
greatest medicine. Worry kills peo-
pie, kills more of them than any
disease"
What about your future in pic
tures?" | asked.
Il want my next picture to be bet
ter than any / have yet done. Many
of our friends think Douglas and /
ought to make one together, but per-
haps it would be better to appear
with him in the last picture | make"
But that will not be for a long
time them" l suggested
"Oh, | don't know" Mary an
swered. "You see, springtime is nv
time. ] am identified on the screen
as young girl When | can ne
longer enact the young romantic
type, | shall act no longer. | do not
think ! would be accepted playing
matronly parts"
"Then what?"
III direct pictures, fairy tales,
perhaps. | believe / understand chill
dren and could handle them effective
iy. I'll direct the pictures as far as
my energies allow. don't believe
that any woman has the energy TO
attend to all the details of directing
picture. That is a job that wears
down even a strong man. 1t takes
all the energy that one has to direct
the making of picture
All of this talk about Mary's old
age semed hit profane to me
as looked upon her. She is still a
little girl, her hair in golden curls, a
childish naivete in her expression
She seems like a little girl who has
put on her mothers long skirts to
play "grown-up."
But that's hardly the way to speak
of Mary's clothes. She has just
brought back IA trunk loads of
clothes from Paris. She showed them
all to me. To girl, | suppose, the
opening of the doors of Mary's clothes
closet would have been like the OPEN
ing of Pandora's box. To mere
man it meant only the display of fine
cloth and that great masculine ques-
tion--how much did they cost?
And / blurted out that question.
