I HAVE just spent a full
week with Henry Ford.
Mr.. Ford would be surprised
10 hear this. since he has never

him was between the covers of

by William A. SimondS,
and it IS a weeks reading.

Mr. Ford since before he
was born. l have met his grand
father, who came from Ireland
in the year 1S47. To make a
long story short, the boy Henry
was born in 1863 at time
when the newspapers were filled
with war news just as they are
now, for ii was the summer Of
the Battle of Gettysburg.
AS a small boy Henry lived
in a house that straddled two
townships SpringwellS and
Dearborn =. SO that he went to
bed in Springwells and ate his
breakfast in Dearborn.
Being a farmers son, he did
the usual chores such as keep
ing the woodboX filled, milking

and all the while Stuffing his
brain with the three Rs :. out
of McGuffey Readers.
His First Job
But young Henry didn't want

wanted to know what made il
run. His first job was in a
foundry, where he received the
huge sum of $3.50 week &.
hardly enough for bed and board
even in those days, so he earned
an extra so cents a week by
working evenings at McGills
Jewelry Store repairing
clocks and watches.

They were married on the

housekeeping in n brand new

him by his father.

Tin Cans
Picked Up
March I3

WITH RATIONING now in
effect, every tin can must be
contributed to the tin can pick
up, March -. There'n be fewer
tin cans available, according 10
Terry Bannan, chairman of the
Wayne County Tin Can Salvage
Committee, and that means that
every housewife should save
every can, prepare them and
have them ready on the collec-
ton date.
THE LAST collection
amounted TO more than 1900
tons-the largest collected in
any city regardless of size. Let's
maintain Detroit's leadership
by making sure that every tin
can is prepared and on the curb
March Is.
THE NEED for tin is becom-
Ing more vital every day as war
production increases, continued
MIR. Bannan, as tin goes into
all kinds OF war equipment.
SINCE OUR big suppiy-has
been shut off. it's necessary that
every one do their bit in the
important salvage activity. In
fact, tin cans on your curb
March 13 is just as much a
badge of patriotism as a V card
In your window.
DON'T FORGET that now
more than ever your country
needs every tin can.
