ITO my mind, in 1928. the in
dustry has carried still further for
ward the principle which has con.
tributed so much to it's marvellous
achievements. 1t has served the
public better through the develop.
ment of more outstanding values
than ever before.
"All this has been made possible
through increased engineering knowl.
edge or better understanding of
the fundamentals. capitalized by
more effective manufacturing and
more intensive merchandising.

ance or greater appreciation OF
the artistic side has probably been
the outstanding development Of the
year from the standpoint Of the in.
dustry as whole.
General Advance Made
with it, however, the technical
or merchanicaI side has in no sense
been overlooked. There has been q
very general advance forward.
particularly In the relation Of power
to weight or increased performance
and aeceleration made desirable by
road congestion and higher speeds,
the latter particularly in the lower
price models.
"When one looks at the values
that are being offered at this time,
it hardly seems believable, vet,
viii venture to predict that with the
spirit Of progress that has prevailed
from the beginning and still prevails
in the industry, the end has, in no
sense, been reached.
Looking forward, to my mind,
the greatest problem that confronts
the industry from within is more
effective merchandising of the
product. I mean by this. the build
ing OF a sounder foundation for the
automotive dealer and. with this, the
development of goodwill toward the
industry through more effective
Goodwill Priceless

dustry or business can possibly have
is the goodwill of the public toward
it and its products. To my mind,

not believe the industry, as a whole,

activities,
Indications point to 1929 as
likely to be the biggest year from
the standpoint OF production that
the industry has yet enjoyed. Our
replacement demand will increase
wealth will be added to the country
which will further increase our op-
portunities. The more intensive ef-
fort that is being put into overseas

citation Of the motor car and its use
as an agent Of transportation, will
result in still greater possibilities in
that rapidly expanding field.

CERGEY McTAvIsH awoke next morning to
~ find Marfoosha and her American standing
beside the bench on which he had passed the
night before the fire.
Wake up, little comrade, wake up and eat
your breakfast, for there's work for you to do"
She had tried to speak cheerfully, but as
Sergey rubbed his eyes she sank down In q
heap beside the bench, sobbing desperately.
THE Bahia Papagai is in frightful humor,"
she said. I'VE know 1t from Petrushka. She
had her parrot at breakfast with her. early,
two hours ago. before it was light, and sat
there talking. talking She said to him, 'Belog-
vardeyetZ white Guard "and the parrot
answered 'Belogvardeyetz' and then the Bahia
Papagai laughed and the parrot said over and
over again. 'Belogvardeyetz,' and the Bahia
Paiagai laughed some more.
You, Sergey Sergeyitch, do you know what
that means?" Marfoosha leaned across the
bench and laid her clenched fists close to
Sergey's heart.
NO" said Sergey uneasily.
Death! That's ALL Just death for my
American" Marfoosha laid her head on her
arms. then Strengthened up and ratified on
breathlessly:
THE court opens at 10 o'clock You go
there. 1t will be just a general rehearsal. The
Baba Papagai is having her rehearsal this
morning. The real show Is when the American
comes before her" Marfoosha's voice faltered.
Sergey again stopped eating.
'She knows it. She told Petrushka she had
heard of this American in town. She said she
had never before had the chance to try her
papagai American. She cursed America.
She said it the sink of all iniquity, den
of wolves, the castle Of capitalism She said
that all Americans were White Guards and
when she said American to her parrot this
morning it just answered, 'Belogvardeyetz.'
"Sergey, come see for yourself"

There was nothing strange to him about .

but the big sergeant standing at the

his thick felt boots.
He held Sergey McTavish by the collar of his
astrakhan tunc and the seat of his brooches,

Noon Is Time
for Child S
Heavy Meal

NutritionistS and child specialists
advise US to make noon the time
for the toddler's dinner. BY tod
dler" we mean the child from l to
5 years OF age.
The heavy meal at noon gives
ample time for digestion. Then, too
a morning cram1ned full OF exercise,
and an afternoon Of activity even
with a refreshing nap tucked in,
makes it necessary to provide plenty
OF energy in the shape OF food at
midday. When the heavy meal is
given at evening, the child usually
is too tired to digest it properly,
and a restless night is likely to fol-
low.
In most city homes, the dinner IS
served in the evening. This means,
if there are children, that special
meal must be prepared at noon.
The busy mother finds this real
task, yet if she is interested in her
child's physical we'll being, she will
be rewarded.
Light Supper for Child
Then, too, if the baby's dinner
has been served at noon, he can be
put to bed with a light supper be-
fore the family dinner is served.
To simplify the preparation of
the noon dinner, then, and at the
same time make it adequate is the
mothers problem. These suggeS-
lions may prove helpful.
If there is but one child to cook
for, the small amounts of vegeta-
/ bles. eggs, etc, are lost when pre-
pared in eventhe smallest of the
family cooking utensils. Tt is q
good idea to invest in several pieces
! of toy size utensils.
With the addition Of tablespoon
of milk, an egg can be scrambled
to perfection in a toy aluminium
! double boiler. Small amounts Of
vegetables also can be prepared in
| the toy stew pans. You may need to
| use an asbestos plate on your stove
burners to keep these smaller pans
in place.
Will Save Gas
For the baked potato. the kitchen
may be kept cooler and gas saved
if one of the small oVenettes which
fit over one burner of the stove is
used in place of the big oven.
Desserts are dear to the child's
heart, and there is no reason Why
he should not have a simple deS~
sert at the enc of the dinner. More
work. you say. Yes, but junket
which can be made in three min
utes or plain fruit favored gela-
tin serve admirably.
For variety. give him tapioca or
cornstarch buildings or custardS
These may be made in larger
amounts and served to the adults
for their evening dinner as well,
with perhaps slight variations such
as the addition of fruit, pie shell,
etc

Helpful Hints
are GiUen for
Spring Cleaning

If paper is used on your pantry
shelves. put on three thicknesses at
once. 1t is as easy to cut three lay
ers as one. They can be removed,
then, one at time, as they become
soiled, a few dishes being removed
and replaced as the paper is rolled
away.
IF you live in an apartment and
have no opportunity to shake dry
mops out of doors, turn the vacuum
cleaner upside down and hold the
mop over it. The dust and lint Will
be re moved without scattering.
To wash windows quickly, dip a
piece of chanoiS about foot square
into about two quarts of tepid water
mixed with one cup of vinegar
Wiring the chamois out dry and wipe
the windows as usual. They are
cleaned and dried at the same time.
Attractive new shades may be
simply and ineXpensively made for
such rooms as the kitchen, break
fast room, and bath room, from
colored oil cloth to match the color
scheme of the room in which it is
used. Remove the old shades from
the rollers. Cut the oil cloth the
desired width. Stitch hem in one
end for the stick, and glue the
other end to the roller.

How about the height of your
sink? Do you have a back breaking
task of washing dishes three times
each day? Many of the older sinks
are too low. and if it is impossible
to block them up in any way, at
least place a wooden block in the
sink on which to rest the dish pan.
You will be surprised to find what
a difference a little thing like this
will make.
Step-Ladder Helps
BY all means furnish yourself
with a kitchen stool. 1t does not
denote laziness Everything possible
should be done to conserve ones
strength. Dishes may be washed
sitting down, vegetables prepared,
and a number of other tasks.
The combination stools and STEP
ladders which may be purchased for
a dollar or more are q great help.
The Step-ladder-alWayS at hand
Will save you many a stretch and
possible accident when reaching to
high shelves.
If your kitchen is large. a, center
work table is a great convenience.
even though you may have a cabi-
net. Many women who have smaller
kitchens find a small work table
or service table on easily rolling
casters, a great help. One never
has too much table room, it seems.
Next to having large pieces of
equipment grouped in relation to the
work to be done, it is important to
have the small utensils conveniently
placed. First of all, try to place
them on shelves or hooks where
they may be reached conveniently
without bending or stretching.
Don't be afraid of DESTROYING the
neatness of your kitchen by hang
ing the utensils in most frequent
use, on the wall. They can be ar
ranged to look sneat, and it is GER
tainly better to have them handy
than it is to have to go to q pantry
for them each time, or reach to a
high shelf.
