Positive Proof
of Ford ECONOMY
City of Detroit purchases 1877 new Ford cars
Hundreds in prove low of operation

THESE 137 new Ford cars represent one
of the largest deliveries ever made to
municipality at one time.
FL radio-equipped Ford scout cars were
traded in on this purchase. They had been
operated day and night for two years in
heavy traffic and all kinds of weather.
Their individual records ranged from
78,434 miles to 143, 1913 miles with grand
total of 2,283,O97 miles. The operating
cost of the 2l cars was 2.284 cents mile
- less than / 3 cents. This cost included
all fuel, oil, tires, repairs and every other
item except depreciation and insurance.
Of 577 Ford cars in Detroit City service,
the 800 in the Police Department travelled
total of 6,591 ,937 miles during the past
fiscal year, at an average cost of 80 cents
mile.
Many claims have been made on operat-
ing costs, but here in the carefully kept
motor car records of the City of Detroit is
positive proof of Ford economy.
In the paragraphs above, it is seen that

branches of Detroit police work averaged
80 cents mile!
Day and night, twenty-four hours day,
these Ford cars are in operation. Few
branches of transportation demand such
grueling service. The records show that
low fuel and oil consumption is but one of
the Ford's many economies. Ford ma
terials, simplicity Of design and accuracy
in manufacturing provide unusual strength,
stamina and freedom from requirements
and repairs.
The individual car buyer as we'll as the

economy of the Ford car.

Minnesota Professor Is
Curing Suffering Students
Speech Clinic Under DR.. Bryngel-
SON Achieving Satisfactory
* Results

Minneapolis, Nov.Stuttering is
due in most cases to the fact that
q person naturally left handed has
been trained to work right-handed
according to DR.. Bryng Bryngel-
son Of the University of Mime
sofa. ~;
Brought to Minnesota five years;
ago to establish a speech clinic,
DR.. ,Bryngelson has paid particular
attention to Sufferers, who COM
prise about one per cent of the
population. This year there are
twenty suffering Students ID to
whom he is paying special atten-
ton.
Cerebral dominance" is Z the
phrase he uses to describe the
brain control over speech in nor
NAL person. The left side Of the
brain controls the right hand por-
ton of the speech organs, and the
right side of the brain controls the
left. In nearly ninety percent of
persons the right side of the brain
has dominance" which to say,
sends its Impulse first to the
speech organs. This results in nor
NAL speech.
When, however, neither side Of
the brain has dominance, as is like
ly to result when a person born
left-handed is trained to act right
handed, impulses from both sides
Of the brain reach the speech or
gans at the same time, resulting in
subconscious confusion, which is
revealed externally as suffering.
Persons unduly self-conscious
and those with other speech de-
fects than suffering are also
treated in the speech clinic, which
is division of the department Of
speech under Professor Frank M.
Rarig. But these comprise a much
smaller percentage Of the popula-
ton than do the Sufferers.
SHUTTER" rather than "stammer"
is the proper name of the difficult

cording to DR.. Bryngelson.

Northwest Farm Folks

Red Cross Is Asking Contributions
Of Food and Clothing for
Eastern Montana

Donations of food and clothing
from people of this locality are be-

Cross to prevent suffering among
$4,000 or more families in eastern
Montana and northwestern North
Dakota during the coming winter.
Farm families in these sections,
comprising about 100000 persons,
suffered virtually complete loss of
crops the last two years and the
governors of the two states have
appealed to the Red Cross. Al
though the states are doing all in
their power to meet the emergency,
outside assistance will be necessary.
Knowing the generosity Of the
people of Minnesota, the Red Cross,
cooperating with the Minnesota
Farm Bureau and many local agen-
cies, will undertake to collect food
stuffs and clothing for shipment to
Helena for distribution to farmers
throughout the A drought stricken

Drop Your Lights
Chief Urges All Autoists
Use of Depressed Beam Courtesy
and Safety Aid-Upper Beam <
Rule Explained -

drop your lights when meeting
other vehicles" is the advice of
Earle Brown, chief Of the Mime
sofa Highway patrol. It is an act
Of courtesy to other motorists, and
also gives the driver better light on
the road Immediately ahead Of him,
so it promotes safety all around. :
Use of the depressed beam when
meeting other vehicles is not re-
quired by law, Mr.. Brown explaines,
as the two filament lamps did not
come into general use until after
the passage of the uniform traffic
act in 1927. Nor is the use Of the
old style DINNERS" required in
Minnesota. Use of DINNERS is not
recommended, because they do not
give enough light for safe driving.
The traffic act provides that all
head lamps must give sufficient
light to make a person discernable
200 feet ahead, under normal at
mospheric conditions, but no driv-
ing lamp shall project light glar-
ing or dazzling to persons ahead.
Lamps shall be deemed to comply
with the law if no part Of the main
bright portion of the light beam
rises above a plane passing through
the lamp centers parallel to the
level read, and in no case higher

Over 200 Stearns County citizens,
mostly farmers, Of Western
Stearns, met with the commission
ers at st. Cloud Wednesday for the
purpose of discussing the tax situa-
ton
There appears to be growing
sentiment that the county officers
and numerous county employees
are very well paid, indeed, for these
times and many feel that read
justment of salaries could be made
without working any hardship.
Wednesdays meeting was strict
ly informal. During the afternoon
1t was decided to have the chair
man of each town board in the
county call a meeting in the town
hall OF his township to discuss the
tax situation. At this melting two
delegates will be elected to attend
a countrywide meeting to be held
at the Community Club rooms,

the Stearns County Taxpayers As
sociation.
Most Of those attending Wednes-
days meeting were not looking to
make trouble for the commission
ers or county officials. Their
thought being to discuss matters
Informally to see what could be
done. In view of the fact that there
wasn't any organization plan to Of
