BEDTIME STORIES BY y. r sSSe1ss

corn he wanted 1t was time to &c
back to the Green Forest. He squeezed
out, as usual, between two of the boards
on the side of the corncrib, ran down
to the bottom and from there jumped
to the ground. Then he scurried away
home. All this time he had forgotten
one very important thing: He had for
gotten that he was leaving tracks in
the snow.
After breakfast Farmer Browns Boy
went out and as he made his way to
the barn he noticed tracks crossing the
dooryard He stopped to look at them
There they were clearly outlined. One
glance was enough to tell Farmer
Browns Boy who had made them.
so" said he, "Chatterer has been
over here early this morning. Won
der what he has been doing. I'll fol-
low his tracks and see what can find
out. Sometimes one can learn great
deal from tracks"
So Farmer Browns Boy followed the
tracks of Chatterer back to the corn
crib. There was the story written in
the snow. He could see where Chat
terer had jumped down from the corn
crib He rubbed his nose thoughtfully.
80" said he, "it has been Chatterer
all the time. This is where he left
the corncrib, but how under the sun
did he get into it? There must be
some more tracks around here. If he
left tracks getting away he must have
made tracks coming"
So Farmer Browns Boy began to
walk in a circle around the corncrib.
Presently he once more came to the
tracks left by Chatterer the Red Squir-
rel. This time he did not follow them
backward. He went in the direction
that the tracks led. They ended at the
foot of the maple tree growing near
the corncrib. Farmer Browns Boy
looked up. Almost at once he saw the
broken branch hanging down. He had
noticed that branch before, but had
given it no thought. Now, however, he
looked from the tip of the branch to
the roof of the corncrib, and on that
roof he saw tracks again. 1t was all
perfectly clear now. He understood
how Chatterer had reached the corn
crib.
Farmer Browns Boy chuckled. eff
it hadn't been for this telltale snow"
said he, "I guess Chatterer would have
fooled me for the rest of the Winter.
This is the time he made a mistake
He forgot all about the tracks he was
leaving. Well, now we know how he
gets into the corncrib. We know how
to stop it. wonder If he'll be able to
find another way in?"

AS usual Chatterer's first thought
was of the corn over in Farmer Browns
corncrib. He had become so accus-
toned to having corn for breakfast
that he didn't think of anything else.
So. as usual, he scampered over to the
old stone wall, along the old stone wall
to the end, across Farmer Browns
dooryard to the tree near the corncrib,
and so finally by means of the broken
branch hanging over the corncrib he
reached the ladder. Two minutes later
he was inside making his breakfast of
corn.
AS usual, Farmer Browns Boy came
to get the corn for the chickens. Later
he went into the house for breakfast.
Chatterer had by this time had all the

unusual accuracy in manufacturing.
Beneath its graceful lines and beautiful
colors there is high degree of me-
chanical excellence.
An example of the va,rc built into the
Ford is the use of more than twenty ball
and roller bearings. They are bidder,
within the car and you may never see
them. Yet they play an important part
in satisfactory, economical performance.
Their function is similar TO tie jewels Of
fine watch.
Throughout the Ford chassis, a ball
or roller bearing is used at every place
where it is needed to reduce friction
and wear and give smooth, reliable me-
chanical operation.
AT many points, as on tho transmission
counter-shaft, clutch release, fan and
pump shaft, and front drive shaft, these
ball and roller bearings are used whero
less costly types of bearings might be-
considered adequate.
Additional instances of the high
quality built into the Ford are the ex-
tensive use of steel forgings, fully
enclosed four.wheel brakes, Rustless
Steel, four Houdaille- double-acting hy-
draulic shock absorbers, aluminium pis-
tons, chrome silicon alloy valves,
tOrque-tube drive, three-quarter floating
rear axle, and the Triplex shatter.proo6
glass Windshield.
The Ford policy has always been To
use the best possible material for each
part and then, through large produc-
ton, give it to the public at low cost.

the uDusuaI reliability and economy
Of the neUU Ford

A SIGNIFICANT TRIBUTE to the value Of
IA the new Ford is found in its increas-
ing use by Federal, state and city gov
ernments and by large industrial COM
panies which keep careful day-by-day cost
records. In most instances, the Ford has
been chosen only after exhaustive tests
of every factor that contributes to good
performance speed, power, safety, COM
fort, low cost of operation and up-keep,
reliability and long life.
Prominent among the companies using
the Ford are the Associated Companies
of the Bell System, Armour and Com
pany, The Borden Company, Continental
Baking Corporation, Firestone Tire and
Rubber Company, General Electric Com
pany, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com
pany, Kellogg Company, Knickerbocker
Ice Company, Morton Salt Company,
Pillsbury Flour Mills Company, The
Proctor and Gamble Company, and
Swift & Company.
Each of these companies uses large
number of Ford cars and trucks. The
Associated Companies of the Bell System
use more than eight thousand.
Modern business moves at fast pace
and it needs the Ford. Daily, in count
less ways and places, it helps to speed
the production and delivery of the
worlds goods and extend the useful ser.
vice of men and companies.
Constant, steady operation over many
thousands of miles emphasizes the adj

From the Host cities" of the Zuyder Zee came peasant women in sabots. voluminous skirts and lace caps with golden pins. From mod ern Amsterdam came Senators and merchants in tops hats and Prince Albert coats of the vintage of 1900. There were delegations of girl scouts and boy scouts and singing societies and lodges and charitable organiza- tions, laborers and Colonials, ordin- ary folk out for the pageant and late tourists who wanted to see modern Hollara on parade. Through the cheering streets of the most charm- ing little capital in Europe the Queen rode from her favorite palace. ''The House in the Wood" to the Parliament and there addressed her noble lords and ministers. Then. accompanied by her heir. the Prin- cess Juliana, her consort, Prince Henry. and her nationally beloved mother, the dowager Queen Emma. She drove back to the little palace where, on a red carpeted staircase she stood for some hours saluting and waving to the passing parade. When the days demonstra- tion was over. the Queen and tho royal family again retired into their strict seclusion. while The Hague and it's visitors made merry for the evening, with review and dropping of the colors at the great parade ground and much music and merri- ment in the cafes and later an hour s illum nation of all the public build ings
