Here's . story told by a person
not exactly unconnected with the
commission:
In a southern city dwells q
wealthy broadcaster whom the COM
mission limited to 1000 watts. Most
of his broadcasting is confined to
photograph records.
Other selections from this station
are most often terrific broadsides
at the owners enemies, which in.
cludes the commission and those
listeners who write in to complain
about the programs. The listeners
tuned in on these stations some
times hear ,bawlings-out directed at

Occasionally the broadcaster con-
firms a general suspicion by an.
nouncing to his unseen audience
that he has "bottle Of likker" at
his side. Along about midnight he s
well warmed up and many lurid
expressions penetrate the ether. The
boss yells to his engineey:
"Put her all ont" And on goes
two or three thousand more watts
and the big transmitter begins to
spread the message to far corners.
The other morning an army officer
in Washington called up the com
mission and complained at the pro-
family issuing from this station.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
(By S. w. Straus)

The proper practices of thrift are
to quite an extent matters of individ-
ual judgment and circumstance.
There are times when it is more
thrifty to spend than to save. There
are times when it is more thrifty to
save than to spend. There are times
when the question of thrift has
no direct bearing but is entirely
a question involving economy of time,
preservation of health or the conser-
walton of some material possession.
Indiscriminate advice to boys and
girls never to save money but to
spend it as fast as they get it for
their own self improvement will I'M
doubleday lead to unsound practices
on the part of many just as would be
the case should one counsel the young
to hoard every penny that comes into
their possession.
Neither the spendthrift nor the
miser is a desirable citizen, and
habits which might bring the child
into either of these classes would
indeed be unfortunate.
Sound common sense should prevail
in these matters. Children should
always be encouraged to save money
but they should not be encouraged
to become misery. They should be
encouraged to think and plan for
themselves and develop their own
Judgment, subject, of course, to pater-
nal or mature guidance on the quest
ion of proper spending for their own
self-improvement.
The question of individual thrift
is a question of individual JUG gment,
and one of the reasons why thrift
should be taught in all schools is
that it develops the judgment of the
child in practical matters.
If definite choice were to be made
between advice to children to spend
freely or save carefully, the weight
of opinion would doubtless be un the
side of saving because frugality anu
economy are indispensable virtues in
the formation of any character and
the development of any successful
plan of life.

Lost Art of individuality

Nobody wants to be individual all
alone these days. Alike as rabbits,
we are. Running with the pack. One
bcbs, and millions seek the shears.
One skirt slips up to the knees and
all the other skirts spring up into
place as at given signal. One wom-
an decides not to bother with all that
bleaching her summer tan, and deep
ochre powder becomes the rage. Men
echo each other in OpiniOns-they've
always echoed each other in clothes
women repeat one another in faces, In
the type of head (no large heads any
more, heads must be small no matter
what Nature has done to you), in
Clothes, and in conduct. We're as
standardized as FOrds. Even artists
look like business men-and yet they
don't feel or think like business men.
And young girls look and act like
women of thirty. And women of fifty

Knowledge of History
DUTY of Citizenship

There never was a time when the
average man needed to know more
about the continuity and tradition of
his race than in this age, when he
is beset on all sides by agitators who
seek to trample under foot anything
that custom has hallOwed or expert
ence taught US to be true. Bacon ad-
vocated the reading of history as max
ing men wise, and it is to be hoped
that this revival of interest in our
cOuntry's story is being undertaken in
the spirit that ought to underlie all
our reading, not that of blind accept
ance, or that of contradiction, but with
an open, alert mind, so that we may
weigh and consider well before lend
ing our support to or Withholding it
from any proposed political reform
The reading of history is the first
duty of citizenship.-Exchange.

PAINTING NEW FORD
ELABORATE PROCESS

The external finish of pyroxylin
lacquer and the manner in which ii
is applied are further examples OF
superior workmanship that is going
into the production of this latest OF
Henry Ford's products.
When the new Ford body enters the
paint department it is first treated to
a bath in special spirits until all
traces of oil or grease are removed.
1t is then dried with clean towels
and carefully buffed to smooth out
all burrs or marks that may have
been made in the process of assem-
bling the body. Crevices or other
places inaccessible to a towel are
blown clean with compressed air.
Next comes another wash which
not only cleans the body again, but
also neuitralizes any acids that may
have remained on it. In this final
washing process, the wOrkmen are
required to use rubber gloves to pre-
clude the possibility of any finger
marks on the smooth, metal surfaces
Following this the body is again
thoroughly wiped, this time with
specially prepared cloths which will
not leave any lint or dust on the
body surface.
Then the clean body goes into a
spray booth where it is given the
primer coat. Next it is placed in a
drier and kept there for two hours
at 225 degrees fahrenheit. Follow
ing this any slight imperfections that
may remain are removed with flex-
IDLE knife and metal glaze. ~
Next comes coat of foundation
surfacer and another period for dry.
ing for an hour and a half at 22E
degrees Fahrenheit. The body then
emerges from the drying room into
a rubbing deck, where skilled work
men wash and smooth the surface
with clear water, very fine sand pa
per and finely powdered pumice
stone.
Another drying process takes thirty
minutes, after which the body is
ready for pyroxylin. 1t is placed in
the spraying booth where it is given
two ''double-header" coats of pyrox-
ylin Each double header coat con.
sists of two consecutive coats, one
applied with vertical strokes of the
air brush and the other with hori-
Zontal strokes. Twenty minutes is al
lowed for air drying between each
double header coat.
1t requires but two and a half
hours for the pyroxylin to set and
harden thoroughly. Then with water,
sponge and fine oil-bonded sandpaper
it is sanded to an absolutely smooth
finish. Again the body is washed and
dried with clean towels, compressed
air again being used to clean out
places inaccessible to the towels.
Finally the body is given mist
coat of pyroxylin thinner-just
enough to permit the microscopic
sanding marks to be smoothed over,
After drying for twenty minutes at
100 degrees Fahrenheit, the body goes
to the polishers where it receives the
high lustre which gives it such an
attractive appearance.
