The bigger the body, the slower the movement. The
1-eater the movement must be, the longer it takes to get
tder way. .
1 The United States is a large body, almost entirely sur
siinded by good motor cars and poor roads. It is moving
owly but surely towards a condition when it will have only
x>d roads. The movement is slow because the body is so
rge.and has so many heads . . . 110,000,000 of them.
Improving our almost three million miles of highways is
i huge task. The movement is enormous. Thei-efore, it
ikes time to get under way. It is like a monster freight
fain, starting up grade, requiring many locomotives to be
lli the travel and slowly getting up speed. But once the
!, ain is in motion, it has an enormous force for going ahead;
lie locomotive can keep it moving, and it is difficult to stop!
So will it be with our road-building program; slowly but
irely the movement for better roads than federal aid can
ive, for more roads than states alone can build, is gathering
(omentum. When it gets up speed, nothing can stop it.
Meanwhile the individual who needs a good road and
eeds it now, must not lose courage. It was said the Ban
na Canal couldn’t be built in a generation. It was built in
■ few short years. At the rate we are at present building
•doral aid roads it will take some hundred and fifty or two
undred years to improve our road system. All of us will
P very dead before that movement is well started. The
pswer is to change the movement, to work for, educate for,
ote for, national highways, built by and maintained by the
ational government; give this nation two hundred thousand
liles of such roads (which could with ease be built in a pe
lod of five years), and the rest of the roads will be improv
t in even less time, by states, counties and towns, which
till refuse to be kept from the benefits of such a national
3 ad system, when all that they need to do to enjoy it is to
Snnect with it.

ANNOUNCEMENT STORY
FORD MOTOR COMPANY
DETROIT, MICHIGAN
Detroit, Mich.—lntroduction of a
higher radiator, bringing new and
improved body lines to all types of
Ford Cars, is announced today by
the Ford Motor Company.
The changes have just gone into
effect and the various types are now
in production.
While the larger radiator has been
made standard on all' types and
while it has made possible other bet
terments in body design, there is
no radical departure in construction,
but rather a general improvement
which has resulted in more grace
ful lines.
The new radiator sets an inch and
a half higher than the former and
has an apron at the bottom which
joins a similar apron effect of the
fender on either side, giving a
highly- finished appearance to the
front of the car. The larger radia
tor also increases cooling efficiency.
Most conspicuous among the new
types is the Ford Coupe which is
of entirely new body design and
construction, resulting in a more
trim exterior appearance, more com
fortable seating arrangement and a
greater luggage carry ing capacity.
From the dash there is a graceful
sweep in the cowl to the radiator
bringing a pleasing effect to the
front. The doors are. wide and open
forward making access and exit easy.
They are heavily franied for rigidi
ty and strenght. The compartment
at the rear has been enlarged to af
ford increased carrying capacity. The
gasoline tank is under the scat, with
divided cushions to afford easy fill
ing of the tank from the right side
making it unnecessary for the driver
to leave his seat. Ventilator in the
cowl and a visor over the windshield
add much to the attractiveness of
the car. Anew rear fender of more
sturdy character also is a feature.
Interior fittings are of choice ma
terial and the arrangement of the
deeply cushioned seat has been ef
fected so that at the rear there is
a small recess shelf for carrying
parcels. The rear vision window
is much larger and oblong in shape.
Door windows have been equipped
with revolving type window regula
tors and door locks are provided.
Side windows are equipped with the
lever ty-pc window lifters.
Marked, too, is the improvement
in the Four Door Sedan. Highly
popular since its introduction a year
ago, because of its low, graceful
lines,. the car now presents even
much better lines and a sturdier ap
pearance.
This has been brought about by
the installation of an entirely new
cowl with a graceful sweep from the
dash blending into the. larger hood
and radiator. The change also af
fords an increase in leg room for
occupants of the front scat.
In the open types .the Touring Car
and Runabout, the cowl has been en
larged and flows in a graceful curve
to the higher hood.
The result brings a most pleas
ing effect to the exterior appearance
of both types. The improvement
in the Touring Car which came when
the one man top and slanting wind
shield were introduced, is greatly
enhanced by the larger radiator, the
car appearing lower and more at
tractive than ever. The effect on
the Roadster is likewise most ap
pealing, giving it a more rugged arad
sturdy appearance.
The new radiator also is extended
improved appearance and better
cooling to delivery services.
These new Ford types and the
generally recoginzed performance
ability of the Ford under alt motor
ing conditions, promise to bring a
greater demand than ever before as
the public becomes more fully- ac
quainted with the higher standards
and greater valus which have been
incorporated. No changes are con
templated in prices.
AIKEN KIWANIANS
PLAN CIVIC WORK
Committee on Public Affairs
Met Monday Night.
Aiken, S. C„ Sept. 11.—The ener
getic committee on public affairs of
the Aiken Kivvanians held a meet
ing last night at.the home of Dr.
Hastings H. Wyman, Jr., one of the
livest wires on the committee, and
who has changed Curve street into a
blazing White Way entrance into
Aiken from the South and North.
Plans were formulated for the ad
vancement of solid civic work for
the near future in and about Aiken.
Among the plans is the move to have
the district headquarters of the
Clemson College extension work re
main at Aiken, there being a move
ment to have the headquarters
changed to Columbia. The station at
Aiken lias done an immense good for
Hie section under District Manager
Henry S. Johnson, and the county to
day is perhaps the leading county
tor practical farming in the state.
The old cry- of “Aiken, Aiken, what
will you do; your land is poor and
the people, too”, has been changed
lo a whistling song of success un
der wise advise and sound scientific
methods. The Kiwanis Club will
bring full weight to bear on Agricul
jjrals Long and the other heads to
have the headquarters stationed sol
idly- at Aiken.
Other members of, the public af
fairs committee are Rev. John Fladie
Henderson. Messrs. W. W. Edgerton,
I-’rampton Toole, Harry Sudlow, Has
kell Shuler and Mayor D. W. Gaston.

ment as well as the Academic will

ing the editors lo make the day an

i ing this season to display the fea
ture pages of the country papers as
well as some of the dailies in this
