4 ment honesty and efficiency wei-e concenicd. ,'
Ic is impossible for all presidents to know intimately or to
v investigate thoroughly the character and qualifications of
all the men he is required to appoint to official positions.
The tremendous amount of work loaded onto a chief execu-
live necessitates his having advisors in the matter of numer-
0Uo ..ppointments. When tho senators, representatives, poli
j friends, etc., recommend certain men for certain jobs,
' Uie piesident must trust their'judgment if he has no one
, in nund that he knows personally. If they prove satisfac-
' : tory, he gets the credit. If they bake a mess of their jobs,
he gets the blame.
; Mr. Hoover doesn't like such a system and has set about
changing it. Along with the names of certain men sent to
the senate for confirmation in certain jobs Mr.: Hoover js
? sending the names of the sponsors of each. If Senator So-
J und-so says that John Doe will make an ideal federal judge
in such-and-such a state, and the state bar association has
I passed a resolution endorsing the gentleman's candidacy,
'v that information goes on the record. If John Smith is urged
as a competent man fur the new Farm Board and is selected
by Piesident Hoover for that job, his name wil be sent to the
; senate accompanied by the names of the men who recommend
' him to the president.
. Tho president will no longer be the goat on appointments
which he is forced to make on the recommendation of other.
Petty politicians will no longer be able to criticise the chief E
executive for naming mediocre officials that were strongly
k recommended by otl ;r petty politicians.
N..tuiully any president of Hoover's experience ami admin
isiuiuve ability is i;oing to exercise utmost care in his ap
pointments. He is at least K..ing to Im? reasonably sure of the
judgment and motives of his advisors who make life happy
for federal job hunters. But lie is nK going to have the f;icts
on record so when mistakes are made, he and the country
will know who was responsible for the mistake so that reieti-
lion may be gtianlod against properly. It's an excellent
policy and just one more little innovation that wiii meet the
approval of a great host of practical American citizens.

Your
MODEL T FORD
is still
a good car
THE Model T Ford led the motor industry for twenty
years because of ita sturdy worth, reliability and eeon
my. Those same reasons continue to make it a good car.
' As a matter of fact, nearly one-fourth of all the auto
mobiles in use today are Model T Fords. Millions of
them can be driven two, three and even five more years
with reasonable care and proper replacement. Figures
show that the average life is seven years.
Don't sacrifice your Model T, therefore, but take it to
the Ford dealer and have him estimate on the cost of
pulling it in Al shape. A very small expenditure may be
Ihe means of giving you thousands of miles of additional
service.
For a labor charge of $20 to $25 you can have your
motor and transmission completely overhauled. This
price includes new bearings, rr boring cylinders and any
other work necessary. Parts are extra.
Valves can be ground and carbon removed for 3 to
$4.. The cost of tightening all main bearing, is only 6.
The labor charge for overhauling the front axle is fl,50
lo $3 rear axle assembly, $.."5 to $7.
New universal joint will be installed for a labor charge
of $3. Brake shoes rclincd for $1.50. Rear spring and
perches rcbushed for $1.73. The cost of overhauling
Ihe starting motor Is $3. A labor charge of approxi
mately $2.50 covers the overhauling of thc generator.
It wUI pay you, therefore, to see vour Ford dealer
and have him put your Model T in good running order.
By doing so you will protect and maintain the invest
ment you have in your car and get month, anil vears of
reliable transportation at a very low cost per mile.
