In very great industry, the ele-
ment of time plays a most'lmpor
tan't part, but it would be dif fi
cttlt to Und any jngtitutlon where
it requires such close attention as
in the Ford organization which
not only keeps one watchmaker
at work, but! in addition keeps a
corps of clock men busy seeing
that some hundreds of clocks
tick the time to the second.
This element-.of ...time radiates
into every division of the Ford in
. dustry, regulating the hour when
lumber reaches the j mills, when
ttoal is loaded, when the ore
reaches the blast furnace, when
molten metal is poured, when mo
tor cars are completed, when Ford
trains move, Ford ships sail. Ford
airplanes wing their way into
space and when Ford employes
come to work and Quit.
Today a Ford ship, sailing for
nome arter carrying the name of
Ford across the Atlantic to Euro
pean ports for the first time, is
proceeding on its way with clocks
.that were checked and regulated
In the Ford engineering labora
tories at Dearborn, Mich., where
precision : in everything is the
watchword. Another Ford ship,
Plying the Atlantic coast, likewise
carries clocks regulated in these
' laboratories, the game as the? giant
Ford steel freighters which ply
the Great Lakes carrying coal
and iron ore. ;
t It is the business of a watch-
maker, whose worshop is in a
bright little room at the Dearborn
laboratories, to. see that the ships'
. docks are in perfect time. He
alas keep check on the watches
used by trainmen on the Detroit.
ioiedo &- Ironton railroad,: the
sera railway, and this alone ia an
important Job.
, incidentally, the -D. T. & I. is
the only railroad in America
which supplies watches to its
trainmen. Some 300 watches rae
constantly in tae, with 50 "loan-
ers in the watchmaker's room
ready to go. out' whenever the oc
casion requires. No Employe of
the railroad U permitted to either
set or attempt to regulate the
which he carries. Any timepiece
that is off standard time events
, minute must be turned in for a
"loaner" until It is repaired and
regulated. ';;. j'E;: -:S::r:r:'::

THESE low prices are not for new cart fcuilt

They are for Studebaker cars identical with those

They are for Studebaker can so well bu3t of

the past six months have averaged ftnly $140.64

Thus we were able last January to rednce pLicet

Then we announced that Stndebaker would have
no more "yeariy models- to artificiaUy depreciate
car in the hands of owners. r."rT.i" X-
Sales instantly started to soar and have forced
the vast Studebaker plants to maintain peak pro
duction throughout, the summer, in the face of
declining production for the industry ia general. ..
To one-profit saving we thus add laving due
to long continued peak production. These savings ,
we share with customers in the price reduction
announced August 1st. f
We still Use genuine leather, moLair uphobtery,
fine northern white ash and hard maple, tough
extra gauge steel for which we pay- premiums, plate
glass, walnut inlaid with holly and other refine
ments. In short, these are the same fine cars in
ewery particular only the price has been reduced.
Ydu cant appreciate what a bargain Studebaker
cars are at these new prices until you compare
them poDit by point withr others. . i
Remember that Studebaker cars have been kept

taade as soon as developed not -saved opt for
