Ford Plan Provides
Training of Mechanics

Absolute uniformity of service on
the new Ford Model "A'' cars and
Model "AA" trucks is being main
tanned by the Ford Motor Company
through a plan which involves the
training, in the Ford plants, of ten
thousand garage mechanics. The
Ford branch plants, and the Detroit
factories have assumed the character
of gigantic training school, to which
every Ford dealer in the United
States is sending one or more repre-
sentatives.
This school for service men began
with the training of superintendents
and foremen of the thirty-six branch
plants in the company in the United
States. Before the Model "a" Ford car
was introduced, these men from the
branch plants were being schooled in
the Ford factories near Detroit in the
manufacture and assembly of the new
car. They returned to the thirty-six
Ford branches and Immediately began
the training of men for dealers in
their respective territories.
The men come in relays, each group
as large as the branch plant can ham
die conveniently. The groups are pur-
posely kept small, in order that the
most intensive training can be given.
Each man is put through the same
course given the branch men at De-
troit, and upon it's completion is CIV
en- a rigorous examination. This iex-
animation includes many points about
the car which might not be considered
essential, from the service mans
viewpoint. However, the Ford Com
pany is requiring complete knowledge
of the car on the part of every deal
er's service men. Failure to make
passing grade means that the man
has to take the entire course again.
If he fails a second time, he is sent
back to the dealer with the suggestion
that he is not considered qualified
to give Ford service; whereupon the
dealer sends another man for the
next training school session.
This requirement for trained serv-
ice men extends to every Ford dealer
no matter how small his establish
ment may be. Many. dealers have
sent two or more men to the branch
for training Upon passing the fac
tory examination, these men return to

1.-TWO Minute Talks"
COOL WEATHER APPETITES
MISS AUBYN CHINN

When fall comes the family enjoys
hot desserts. The air is crisp, the
children have been out of doors, the
boys probably playing football. They
are hungry and need beside the food
for bodybuilding and repair, plenty
of energy. Puddings of all kinds begin
to have place in the menu.
Gingerbread is one of the stand-bys.
Make it with sour milk and the tex
ture will be soft and fluffy. Use
with either whipped cream or sauces
made of brown sugar to which dried
fruit has been added.
Whole grain steamed puddings are
also appetizing and welcome at this
season.

Main Street Takes On
Patriotic Appearance

Recently Conrad Christensen and
Manford Nelson, representing the
Askov American Legion post, made
the rounds of the business places and
secured orders from practically every
business man in town for sidewalk
flags to be placed. in front of each of
the respective places. These flags
are to be placed in the breeze when
ever any important event is taking
place in the community, and in their
full capacity, formed a very pretty
and patriotic appearance on election
day when they made their first bow
to the public.
The flags have a detachable metal
staff with small bronzed eagle at
the top. Holes were drilled in the
sidewalk to hold the flag when being
displayed, and when not in use, a cap
can be screwed into the top which
insures its use, no matter what the
weather mans verdict may be.

AUXILIARY CHICKEN
DINNER SUCCESSFUL

The chicken dinner, bazaar and
radio program staged Tuesday eve
ming under auspices of the American
Legion Auxiliary at the d. B. S. hall
was greeted by large and enthus-
iastic attendance. About $50 were
served with chicken dinner in the
dining room and quite number had
to be turned away at late hour on
account of the supplies being depict
ed. The radio program in the big
hall was interesting but hard to hear
on account of the noise of the crowd
which was busy and anxious to take
advantage of the many articles and
bargains offered on the sale. The
Legion boys put on a turkey rattle
which became the center of attrac-
tion for the short time that it lasted.
In about 80 minutes % turkeys were
banded out to new owners, and at the
close of the rattle many were still
Ciamoring to buy chances. A little
later in the evening 6 geese were Sc
cured and raffled off in just a few
minutes. Geo. Ekberg cried the auc-
tion. From start to finish it
was a splendid evening and reflects
much credit to the committee men,
bers in charge. The financial out
come had not been ascertained at the
time of this writing but it is reason
able to believe that success was also
achieved in this respect.

vomiting. A fact that at first seems
curious is that eating something after
the discomfort begins often gives re-
lief, even just drinking water may do
so. Taking soda usually does; taking
most anything not acid helps. The
explanation, however, is so simple
that anyone with even a rudimentary
knowledge of chemistry can under
stand it. The stomach is not well
supplied with nerves OF sensation. AL
though an ulcer is present, it is pain
less unless being irritated. 1t is only
after a meal has been eaten some
time that enough acid has been pro-
duced to cause discomfort"

HINTS ON HEALTH
Q.
prepared and Furnished by the
Public Health Education
Committee of Minnesota
State Medical ASSN.

Saint Paul, Minnesota-People
have become so accustomed to the
term, stomach trouble" that many of
them do, not realize the Importance
of finding out just what is wrong be-
fore resorting to treatment, the health
committee of the Minnesota State
Medical Association declared in bull
letin recently.
The committee points out that
stomach trouble" may be caused by
any one of a number of ailments and
that a remedy to relieve one sufferer
under this general classification may
be exceedingly harmful to another,
who although also having stomach
trouble may be afflicted with alto
gether a different form of disease.
Stomach trouble may be caused by
ulcers, which although usually yielding
to treatment in the earlier stages,
may develop into such serious con-
dition that an operation is necessary
to repair the damage to the stomach
wall, the committee says. The COM
mittee points out that acid stomach
juices, which aid in digestion, are a
decided handicap in treating ulcers
in that they prevent these stomach
sores from healing. -
The lining of the stomach is par
ticularly adapted to resist action of
these stomach acids, the committee
says, and declares that almost every
body can attest to the acidity of the
stomach fluids through personal ex-
perienee. -.-
Several things may happen in
these ulcer cases." the committees
bulletin says. "The mucous men,
brane which forms the lining of the
stomach may succeed in growing to-
gether. If this does not happen soon,
nature tries to make up for the men,
brane by forming scar tissue. Some
time the digesting eats into the scar
so that a hole is made through the
stomach wall. This allows an escape
of food and juices into the abdomen
a most serious complication demand
ing immediate operation. Sometimes
a blood vessel in the ulcer ruptures,
and the person has a sudden severe
internal hemorrhage. Again, the
complication may be contracting
scar. If the ulcer is at the pylorus,
this makes the opening of the stomach
too small for food to pass on into the
intestine. Such a complication may
get so bad that the person slowly
starves to death. He may eat we'll,
but food just stays in the stomach
until vomited back, When such a
condition arises, an Operation making
a new opening between the stomach
and Intestine often makes new man
Out of the chronic invalid.
"The more common course is to
have none of these complications, but
year in and year out, more or less
stomach trouble. This is typically
feeling of discomfort coming on one
half hour to two hours after meals.
1t tends to get worse until it is a
sharp gnawing pain in the pit of the
stomach, seeming to go straight
through to the back. There may be
