School Notes

Hurrah for the Freshmen! What
won't they be able to do when they be-
come Seniors?
The High School has just completed
the inter-class contest of selling tick
cts for the Art Exhibit. The class
which sold the most tickets was to re-
ceive as reward an engraved picture
to present to the school. The Fresh
man class is starting off fine-they
won the picture.
The first six weeks term is over
with all it's exams, and report cards
are expected some time this week.
The giving out of report cards comes
six times every year, and think how
long we have gone to school, and still
it always gives us that same funny
feeling down somewhere around where
the heart is supposed to be.
This is the week of the Exhibit.
Come early and avoid the rush.
What we would like to know: Is
history so hard, or is it that we know
so very little, that caused every one to
get such marks?
Clyde would like to write some bas-
ket ball songs, but he doesn't know
the tunes of any popular songs to
write them to. He wants to know if
there is any one who would sing some
songs to him so he could learn the
tunes.
There ereforty five girls and ten
boys neither absent nor tardy during
the past six weeks. Gu. attendance
has improved but there are still few
pupils who spoil the record for the
rest
Watch these columns for the social
which is to be given for both old and
young on Oct. "a The Frisco Orches
ira has been secured for the occasion.
We hope everyone will join in and
make these socials success
Do not forget the picture, Three
Buckaroos'' and the comedy 'Butinsky
on Thursday night The program will
commence at 7:30
The>first program of the Art Exhibit
last Tuesday night went over big and
was approximately $4,000. The foil
owing have so far made donations OF
pictures. We hope others will follow
suit-Amarican Legion, Parent Teach
ers Association, Mrs. e. w. Ellis, High

The program Friday night has been
well prepared and no doubt will be
very good. Do not miss the Graded

believed that jazz music, properly
introduced, would become popular
and he determined to make it so.
A week later he resigned and
formed dance orchestra with fif-
teen pieces. His musicians were
fred with his enthusiasm and
agreed to work without pay for
time. In addition TO his horns,
piano and drum he added two
violins, cello, and a saxaphone
and proceeded to hold public con-
certs on street corners and in parks.
Great crowds gathered to watch his
antics and so popular did he become
that his fame swept Eastward. A
year later he was offered the posi-
tion of orchestra lesde~ in the new
ambassador Hotel at Atlantic City.
He was given four-year contract
at a fabulous salary. During the

ENRY FORD, master mind of produc-
ton, weary of delay and tired of try
ing to cope with Congressional meth
DDS which have turned business pro
position into complicated political at
fair. has withdrawn his offer for the
purchase of Muscle Shoals.
This important news announcement
will be made this week by Mr.. Ford
through "Colliers Weekly" which, in
a remarkable interview with the wiz
ard of manufacture, discloses Mr..
Foro's plans for the development of
power and chemicals from coal il
clean mining towns in my own way
and outside of political meddling.
"Muscle Shoals?' said Mr. Ford
"That is not live issue with us any
longer. More than two years ago we
made the best bid we knew how to
make. No definite action has been ta-
ken on it. A simple affair OF business
which should have been decided by
anyone within a week has become a
complicated political affair.

drawn into politics.
I'VE have been, and still are, deeply
interested in Muscle Shoals as a nar
tional asset. There is small promisd
now that it ever will be national as
set more likely it will be only an ex
pense. That concerns every one of US
as citizens.
in the Ford business, once we
make up our minds to do anything we
go right ahead and do it, with the
east possible waste of time, energy, or

electrical power in these coal lands to
any extent we may need and at a
cheaper rate than we could under our
bid at Muscle Shoals he said.
"And also we can generate in our
own way entirely outside of all politf-
cal influence or political meddhng,',
he added. "That is why we have lost
interest in Muscle Shoals.
when we bid for Muscle Shoals we
could have used it. Now we can
achieve the same results in another
way
1T used to be that we could not
send electricity very far, but now with
high tension. methods we can send it
hundreds of miles. That will be the
basis of our operations in Kentucky
IN the coal fields we shall erect
whatever size plant seems to be neces
sary We shall not burn any raw
coal. We shall distill all our coal, but
we have not decided what process of
distillation TO use. At the Rouge plant
we shall extract ammonium sulphate
which we shall sell as fertilizer. We
shall get large quantity of benzol
for motor fuel, and we may adopt a
process. well-known among chemists,
by which we can recover gasoline
from coal. Then we shall have creo-
sote, tar, gas, and crude light oils.
These should give a profit on the coal
before the residues are turned in un-
der the boilers as fuel And so our fuel
will cost us very little, and perhaps
nothing
1.-THE first use of this power will be
to run the railroad Mr.. Ford explain
ed "And it will be very cheap power,
he said, so cheap that we hope the
Interstate Commerce Commission will
then permit us materially to reduce
our freight rates
Would Guard Against
Land Speculation
Mr.. Ford said he wanted to empha-
size the TACT that all OF tneSe develop
ments were not going to happen at
once.
"You mean you want to guard
against land speculation" he was
asked.
.Yes,' he answered. Il do not want
the people in that section of the coun
try to expect a boom. We have practi
cally all the available land we wants
Finally Mr.. Ford expressed the hope
that Muscle Shoals would not be brok
en- up into units as it's nitrates produc
ton could be our greatest guarantee
for peace, and blessing to the farm
er. He believes the army engineers
could work out the problem if given a
free hand. But" he concluded, probab
ly the best course is that suggested by
the President that is to appoint an
impartial commission

Will Help South Anyway

In his interview Mr. Ford
said that he had waited on
the Muscle Shoals PROPOSE
ton for such a long time, be
cause he had hoped for the
opportunity to do something
for the South.
Muscle Shoals is not the
only hope Of the South, how
ever, according to him, for he
has purchased 100000 acres
of mining land in Kentucky,
about 100 miles from the
Shoals. He claims expert
ence gained from expert
ments at his River Rouge
plant show that it will be pos
sible to generate any amount
of electricity needed and at a
cheaper rate. And also, we
can generate in our own way,
entirely outside of all politi-
cal influence or political med
ding. That is why we have
lost interest in Muscle Shoals
said he.
Will not burn any raw coal
Too expensive. Benzol for
motor fuel; possibly gasoline
creosote, tar, gas and crude
light oils; and ammonium sui
plate for fertilizer, are some
of the products that it is ex
pected to derive from the
coal before it is used for full

not wait on politics. Therefore we are
withdrawing our bid
This Mr.. Ford said meant he had
withdrawn from Muscle Shoals and
everything that pertained to it.
I'VE have made our bid said he,
NOW let them make us bid. And
they will not have to wait three years.
for their answer. We can tell them in
five minutes"
Mr. Ford explained that due to the
exigencies of war the Government
spent much more money on Muscle
Shoals than private enterprise would
have spent, and that as result OF
the investment, nitrates could be pro
duced by the Government only for war
purposes, because in peace time they
would be too expensive to sell to the
farmers.
Our bid,v he said, was intended
to develop method by which the pub
lies money could be made productive
and eventually returned to the public
treasury at profit, while at the same
time we should produce nitrates at
sufficiently low cost to sell them to
the farmers at fraction of what they
now have to pay.
-nted to Do Something
For South
Mr.. Ford said if it had not been for
the possibility of doing something for
the South he would not have waited
on Muscle Shoals so long. He added
significantly however that Muscle
Shoals is not the only hope of the
South. Then he announced that while
the politicians were delaying, the
Ford management was pursuing it's
orderly business. "A great business en-
.erprise,Y he said, 'can never stand
still
Here Mr. Ford disclosed the fact
that he has succeeded in buying about
g hundred and sixty thousand acres
of coal lands in Kentucky about two
hundred miles from Muscle Shoals.
