generally fell that the children
are rightfully entitled tir whole-
some. supervised entertainment on
the Hallowe'en season and at
these programs money is raised
to buy needed devices and equip-
ment for the school.
Last year the Mothers Club
completed the Metronoscope or
reading machine project. T h c
machine has been a great aid in'
teaching reading and correcting!
bad reading habits. Mr. Tataum;
states that good reading habits Is .
the basis of all other learning |
and that children with a good
reading background usually en-
joy life and get along well.
This year the Motheri Club is
cooperating with the school in se-
curing a lietter library with more
reading materials for the children
to enjoy. The family and patrons
feel that a child whose reading
is limited to his text hooks is
likely to never acquire a love for
reading.
A big turkey dinner will be
served in the cafeteria from
to i>:00 o'clock and the entire j
public is invited to come and eat
with their friends. Since a great
deal of the food is being donated

You expect BIG things from FORD!

Jlti Ford Rouge Plant is world-famous for doing big
things in a big way. Now it's producing the hiagrst Ford
car ever huilt!
The 1941 Ford has an entirely new body — longer and
wider. It has a longer tyhei'lhasc. Seating width has been
increased as much as seven inches! Larger windshield
and windows provide as much as 33% more glass ore a.
After you see the beauty and size of this big car, feel
its faster acceleration and soft new ride — a ride produced
by new, slower-action springs, improved shock absorbers,
and a newly designed stabiliser that eases steering and
helps maintain balance on curves or in cross winds.
How is it done? How can such a big, comfortable
car have eight cylinders and this costly construction
at low priceP
The answer goes back to the Ford way of doing busi-
ness — to the fact that Ford hak built millions more cars
than any one else and is satisfied with a smaller profit
per car.
Get the full story from any Ford dealer. See how little
it costs to trade in your present car. A 1941 Ford means
a good deal!
Get the facts and you'll get a FORD!
mmm
The Great Ford Rouge Plant
provides the finest manufacturing
futilities in the world. Here tho
genius and experience of Henry
I'ord, plus the efficiency of Ford
cnjiieers, produce quality cars in
huge volume to sell at a low prico
with small profit—so that when
you buy a Ford, you get value far
above the price you pay! ^
