COLLEGES STRESS
QUALITY OUTPUT
Cooper Says SIackening in
Rush of Students Makes i.
Possible Better Work.

American institutions Of higher learn
ing are getting in position materially TO
improve the quality of their output
through refinement of Institutional pro-
cedures and more effective utilization OF
material facilities, as a result of the
slackening in the rush OF students to
colleges and universities, william j.
Cooper, Commissioner OF Education,
says in his annual report to the Secre-
with some of the pressure Of num-
bers removed and with a continued in
crease in financial support, more stress
may now be put by the higher instftu-
tions on quality of output" DR.. Cooper
declares
Mr.. Cooper reports that high schools,
feeders" of the colleges and UNIVERSE
ties, have shown a slower rate OF in
crease in enrollments in the last three
or four years, with the result that the
rush to attend the higher institutions
which brought tremendous increases in
enrollmentS in colleges just after the
war, seems to have passed the high tide.
! u. S. Figures Lead World.
He cites the estimate of the Associa-
ton of American Universities that the
increase in enrollments in institutions
of higher learning in the last year has
been only per cent, the smallest f1g-
ure since the war
Collegiate enrollments, however, are
far higher in the United States, In pro-
portion to population, than In any other
country in the world, Cooper states. He
sees, however, the lowering of the birth
rate in this country as one of the fac
tors IN the slackening of OF the in
crease In school and college enrollments.

tain" he declares, that a period Of
sterilization in college growth is near
at hand"
The commissioner reports that much
attention is being paid by educators
to the visual method of instruction. He
sees the popularity and educational
possibilities of the motion picture as a
factor In this development, but adds
that all sorts of media of visual in
Struction are being used In the schools,
including graphs, stereographs and
stereopticon slides.
He also sees radio coming into
popularity as medium for the i'm

BREAKING IN" NOT NECES-
SARY WITH MODEL A FORD

Precision manufacturing and an un-
Ford Motor Company attaches to the
inspection of Model A cars has gone
far to eliminate that tedious process
known as the breaking in" of new
automobile.
On the windshields of the new mod
del A are directions which suggest a
driving speed limit for the first 500
miles Of 35 miles per hour. This is
in marked contrast to the old line of
instruction which cautioned against
speed Of more than 20 or 25 miles
an hour for at least 1000 miles.
Excess heat is the most destructive
agency which may affect an automo-
bile, particularly in the first several
hundred miles it is driven. Friction
is mainly responsible for overheating,
and a piston that is fitted too tightly
may sieze and in turn score the cylin-
der wall. This means an expensive re-
pair job.
Careful machining of engine parts,
such as cylinder blocks, pistons, cam
shafts, crankshafts, ETC., the proper
fitting of bearings, accuracy in the
cutting of gears; multidudinous
checks during the process Of
assembling the Model A and rigid
inspection combine to produce an au-
tomobile which is ready for the road
when delivered. For this reason, it
may at once be operated to the limit
of speed prescribed by the motor
codes of a great many states, without
going through the customary "break-
ing in period.
