They have caught the jazz melody down the
block from a thinking piano on top Of which

the pushcart man out front selling those busts
for just that purpose and aren't they just the

the other end Of the instrument one buys a
bust Of Shakespeare-not that he had any
more to do with the South Seas or Dixieland
than Wagner, nor as much concern with music,

Business Is Business Eoriy
In Orchard Street

A lad Tolls on the stone doorsteps Of his
home, lszily watching others play bounce-and-
catch against the convenient backstop those
steps offer. Suddenly his eyes brighten and
he declares:
Il should charge you cent for using these
steps"
It's only an idea and the boys laugh IL Of.

the cop and is allowed TO keep the nine cents

Two Cents Won't Quench
a Fiue-cent Thirst

It is hot night and the dispenser Of iced
quenchers Is doing the better business. It's
so good that he feels justified in having nip
every now and then himself, only as quality
sampler, Of course His sign offers lemonade
for 2, 3 or 5 cents, which are the monetary

Three Bears Of fairy tale fame, do those
glasses. One can imagine Goldilocks slipping
from all three sizes and when the Bears re-
turn to their stand being charged 10 cents,
for one doesn't get things free on Orchard
Street.
Across the street there Is an oil painting
or that is what It should be. 1t Is a cobbler's
shop, no more than a 'hole In the WALL
Framed by the blacbness of adjoining tene-
1n.rs~ thu living picture is lighted by hood

relief: three old cronies, two Of them with
patriarehal boards Such is the interest Of
the topic, a shoe lies untouched on the lap Of
the cobbler. For moment the picture might
have been posed; then it is broken by gesticu-
lations.
A patrolman, tall and spruce, has been
watching, perhaps with artistic enjoyment OF
the vivid scene, though he doesn't recognize
Il as that. To him it all seems very odd and
amusing and foreign. Obviously American,
more obviously New York, he fails to realize
that It Is he who is out Of place on Orchard
Street, he who is the Earring note. His grin
aing comment Isl
"Aw, why don't dem guys try talkin' wild

new FORD CAR HAS
MANY REFINEMENTS
BODY ana Mechanical
improvements Meet Public
Approval
Appr0YaI

The Ford Motor Company, De-
troit, has just made public a list of
recent impro ,emeuts IN the mechaa
ical features ,f Ford cars.
Asserting ,nat Ford cars are bet
ter today than they ever have been
before, the ,atement adds that fuel
consumption is lower; the engine Is
even more Efficient than formerly;
improvements in the springs and
steering apparatus insure easier rid
ing and diving qualities; a new
headlamp lens, which complies with
all state laws, improves the road
light; and That many other minor
bettermeEts have been made.
Ford piston and connecting rods
have been re-deslgned and are
matched for weight before assemb-
ling into motors. This reduces
vibration and gives the motor a
quicker pickup. The new pistons
weigh three-quarters of a pound less
than those formerly used. Ahighly
polished crank shaft bearing surface
also reduces wear and, added to the
piston and connecting rod improve
ments, lnsures smoother running
aud better balanced motor. The
material used IN the Ford crank
shaft and the care and precision In
its manufacture make 1t second to
none.
The new Ford carburetor gives
increased acceleration. Though not
radically different from the carbure-
tor previously used, the new con.
struotlon improves the all-around
performances of the motor, giving
it a quicker pickup and a greater
hexibllIty of action.
The wiring system has been COM
pletely re-deslgned, and while it
costs more to install than the old
system, Is most efficient, proof of
which Is evidenced by the fact that
1t affords a fire insurance rate as low
as the higher priced cars on the
market.
Many other changes have been
made; A l6 steering wheel is now
standard equipment; Timken roller
bearings are used In the front
wheels; one piece pressed steel run
brackets insure BODY
and eliminate vibration and
body noises; a dash weather't trough
prevents rain from reaching coil
terminate or dash wiring; the steer
ing mechanism has also been Inn
proved; and the tools supplied to
purchasers of Ford cars have also
been improved IN quality. Another
important Improvement in the truck
chassis is the adoption of cord tires
as standard equipment on the rear
wheels.
The change made some time ago
In the seating arrangement of the
Touring Car has met with WIDE
spread approval. BY lowering the
seats and altering the seat backs,
greater comfort was added.
tn pointed out that retail sales
of million cars aud trucks yearly,
and the consumption of raw and
finished products at cost Of ap-
proxlmately one million dollars a
day makes 1t possible to sell Fords
at their present low prices and at
the same time to produce car of
