 immigrant Worker
 Speako at Church
 Week from Today

Down in New York harbor stands great figure holding aloit Q torch as a symbol of liberty and called by many detained on Ellis Island, The old lady In green. There IS another lady on Ellis Island, an energetic, untiring little person with great heart and snapplng black eyes who 9 almost as well known to the hundreds who pass through this United states Immigration Gen. ter as the Statue of Liberty. She IS Mrs. Jennie r. Pratt, Mother Pratt" Co thousands, who will speak Wednesday Afternoon, March % at 2:30 ?. rn., in the Bunker Hill Con- gregasional church at Q Women's meeting.
 For over 20 years Mrs. Pratt has bene helping immigrants by caring for, and teaching their children, conducting English classes, aiding with plans for finding homes, friends or work, spreading cheer and coun- selling in personal problems. Dur- ing the recent war Ellis Island be- came 6 closed city. Many of it's guests" were civilian aliens, Ger man and Italian, or Chinese seamen and those of other races detained there, not because they were "ene- mics" but for technical reasons Mrs. Pratt spent as much physical energy as a stevedor travelling among these men and boys in the massive buildings on Ellis Island, and tramp ing about on shore as she shopped for them.
 A trip through Ellis Island with Mrs. Pratt IS an experience to be remembered. She Is beseiged on all sides by groups of people of many races with dozens of personal requests and problems. In nor- nal times there are mothers, fath- CTS and children with their myriad problems of broken homes.
 The work on Ellis Island began a century ago under the Board of Home Missions. Tn the past g years, Mrs Pratt has been their able representative and an inter- preter of good will to people from all lands.
 Her parents were born in Genoa, Italy. A Bible placed in the hands of her father when he arrived led to his conversion to the Protestant faith. She received her training for social work in the Baptist wo- mems Missionary Training School in Chicago and the Boston School of Social Work. She also took a four year course at Rutgers University in mental hygiene. Mrs. Pratt's husband served in World War I and her only son in World War II.

 The article told the children that Churchill organized armed interven- ton against the Soviet Union in 1918, and was attempting the same thing now.
 Behind Churchill stand not the people of England, but English itn- perialists. They are big manufac- turers and bankers who are trying to grab new colonies in order to oppress the native people and in- crease their riches. They always hated our Soviet fatherland."

Ford EnameIs Now
0utwear Steel Bodies

DEARBORN, Mich.--Ford Motor
Company automobile enamels have
reached the point in durability
where it can actually be said they
will outwear the steel bodies upon
which they are applied.
Years of patient trial and error
with synthetic resin formulas result
ed in this smooth, gloosy, durable
perfection.
When peak production is reached
at the Ford Company's Highland
Park paint plant, more than 10000
gallons of automobile body enamel
will be manufactured each day.
Four electrically heated cooking
kettles operate night and day. These
modern cookers" are used to proc
ess the synthetis resins which form
the base OF Ford enamels. Largest of
the cookers has capacity of 1900
gallons There are two which hold
1000 gallons each, and one carries
500 gallons. Electric heat is used to
insure acurate tempature control.
Resins of the glyceryl phthalate
type, soybean oil modified, are COO
ked at tempatures ranging from 425
to 450 degrees. Depending on the
type, the cooking process continues
from 6 to IL hours. When all the pr
operties are right and the correct
viscosity has been reached, the
batch" is poured from the cookers
into thinning tanks where it is mix
ed with high solvency naphthas.
The next step is through filter
presses where small particles OF
gummed oil and impurities are rem
owed. The resin, now thinned and
filtered, next is pumped into large
ball mills where concentrated color
(dry pigmen) is added.
1t is in the ball mill that the act
ual color paste is made.
At Ford's Highland Park paint
plant there are SO water-cooled bal
mills each six feet in diameter and
six feet long These mills hold from
10000 to 10000 pounds of three
quarter inch steel ball bearings.
The mills rotate, and it is the
tumbling of the ball bearings, in
side, that "grinds-out" the color
The mills turn and the balls tumble
in the color paste from "a to 10C
hours, depending on the pigment
that is being used. Each ball mill is
capable Of holding 1000 gallons OF
paste.
When the grinding process is COM
pleted, the color paste is ready for
the paint mixers. Now the color
paste is pumped into turbine blade
mixers deep steel tanks with rotat-
ing blades) where additional resin
Is added and mixed until the right
color balance and consistency is
reached.
1t is while the enamel is in the
mixers, in the final stages, that the
color Watchers use their art. It is
here that the new batch of enamel
must be matched with the original
or master color. This is the so-called
"tinting STAGE.
Skilled color Watchers, who have
spent years in the business, use their
unerring eye for color to match the
new with the master color.
Be it the new Greenfield green or
the Ford standard black, the color
Watchers take samples as the mix
goes on. These samplings Of the bat
CHI are sprayed on small steel panels.
The panel is baked one hour at 240

The Board will be in session for
the purpose of hearing objections
to the said assessments which may
be filed at the Clerks office at 1889

grains early at heavy rate of seed
ing will have an excellent means of
growing feed for cattle during the
winter and at the same time protect
their fields from erosion. To be elig-
IDLE for payment the small grain
crops must be planted before Nov
ember /, 1916. For best results, plan
ting in late August or September is
recommended.
For maximum cover and grazing,
it Is recommended that farmers pla-
mt 4 bushels of oats per acre. II other
small grains are planted, it is recon-
mended that wheat, rye, or barley
be seeded at the rate of 2 bushels
per acre. II mixture is desired, 2
bushels of oats should be planted
together with bushel Of either
wheat, rye, or barley. These small
grain crops may also be planted in
a mixture with winter legume cover
crops. 1t is further recommended
that small grains planted for graz
ing and winter cover be fortified
with 400 pounds of basic Stag or 300
pounds of superphosphate per acre
except in cases where small grains
are seeded following a fertilized
crop. In addition, the application OF
200 pounds of nitrate of soda or its
equivalent is recommended.
To be eligible for payments, farm
ers must request approval Of the
county office before they begin
carrying out the practice.

Potatoes for Breakfast

From a caloric standpoint, pota-
toes make an excellent substitute
for bread. In addition, they contain
many valuable vitamins and min
erals. Fresh from the garden as
they are at this time of year, they
have high vitamin c content and
they are good source of vitamins
B and G. Farm families have
served potatoes boiled or fried
for breakfast for long time, but
few urban homes have adopted the
practice. Potato pancakes make a

FORCE OF RELIGION

Religion used to be much
stronger force in American life
than it is today. Too many peo-
pie, particularly the young, see
no reason ,Uhy they can't do ,ohat
they please. They see older peo-
pie getting a,Uay ,Uith all sorts
of crooked business deals, With
deceit, ,Uith infdelity. What is
the use Of clinging to outmoded
dognias and restrictive moral
codes, they ask.
As Miss Norris says in today's
article, the young people are de-
ceived by the surface Of things,
,ohere they see SO much of greed,
stupidity and sin. Much OF it is
alluring and apparently satisfy
ing. What they don't see, Miss
Norris points out, is the thou
sands and millions Of humble
people tUhO obey the tdtUS OF God
and find their greatest happiness
in tollo,Oing His Word.
These humble people kno,0
that faith and the Holy La,o will
save young iues from ruin. They
realize that doing the generous,
torgiuing thing is worth,ohile,
that it brings peace and quiet
happiness. 1t is the only power
that can saUe the modern world
from sell f-destruction.

shortness of our term here and the
necessity of making every moment
of it valuable, that inspires this
sort of teaching and this sort of con-
duct. American children have not
been deprived of moral teaching; it
floods over them all during their
home and school years. They have
been deprived of the one thing that
makes that teaching valuable.
Will be a Settlement.
They are like busy workers who
have no employer. The humble true
believer learns of God through the
life of his expiating son, believes
that it matters whether he is hon.
est or not, truthful or lying, cruel
or kind. There is a great en-
ployer, and eventually there will be
a settlement.
And acting blindly on this belief
for few years he begins to see
that it works. Problems in his out
er life smooth out; the generous
thing, the forgiving thing, the self
immolating thing is suddenly and
surprisingly the happiest possible
thing.
II don't know why God is so good
to u.s." certain obscure mothers
say, their faces radiant as they con-
template the safe arrival of Toms
son, the happy marriage of lone
ly, 30-year-old sister Annie.
You never hear that phrase ex-
cept from believers. They see the
surface-scum of human frailty in
their leaders; they know of the
wars, the slums, the selfishness and
dishonesty of the so-called Chris
tian civilization" Everyone sees
that.
But they see further, too. They
see that faith and the rule save
young lives. The very leaders them
selves may be lost. But the children
to whom they taught love of God,
and love of neighbor, are the onl.-
safe children in the world. Rob
your children of everything else for
which you are working and strain
ing, but give them faith.
