Mr. Day told of one road which

95 of the vehicles used are

" One asks how the Peruviana

system of rules to prevent : colli

upper reaches of the Andes, say
Lima," Is permitted to move down
only on Tuesday, Thursday" and
Saturday o each week. Traffic
from the lower reachea la allowed
to move upward only on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday:" ? i

A worn and tattered Ford car
catalogue bearing the date of
1908, now in the archives of the
Ford Motor, company, is a mighty
impressive piece of literature. Not
only does it graphically Illustrate
the infant stage of the ' world's
greatest Industry, but also furn
ishes some interesting compari
sons with a number of features' ot
automotive engineering often quo
ted as-new developments.
Back in 1908r the question of
from which aide the car should be
controlled was regarded aa of lit?
tie Importance. Henry Ford, how
ever, ; recognized tne ract inat
when automobiles became as pop
ular aa ho intended to make them,
safety in traffic would be greatly
increased by the left hand drive;
So, with the advent of the Model
X, Mr. Ford plpneered the move-j
to popularize thla type of control.
Aa the number of automobiles fol
lowed his precedent until. within 4
few years virtually, every car made
in America waa left hand drive.
The torque tube drive, now one
of the outstanding construction
eatures of many of the finest
American and European automo
biles was invented by Henry Ford
and applied to the first Model T in
1808. - f, .
The principle of three point sus
pension, now practically universal
ly , recognized, made its first ap
pearance on a Ford car in 1903
and was included in the specifica
tions of the Model T.
The 'Multiple disc clutch is fre
quently quoted as a "new improve
ment," yet a multiple disc clutch
constantly bathed In oil was one
of the features of the 1908 'Model
T.
In a recent statement, the com
pany reviews the 18 years ot man
