Why Hurry With Start To School
"Haste makes waste" as the
old saying goes. Perhaps no
where docs haste make a great
er waste than our practice of try
ing to hurry children Into school
and out of school the earliest
possible moment that the law
allows.
Actually the advantages of
graduating from high school at
sixteen instead of seventeen are
not as great as they might ap
pear. Also the disadvantages of
having started school before you
are fully ready are much greater
than parents realize.
Some children make out all
right and manage very well, even
though they aie overplaced in
school. Their's or any other stu
dent's main problem is the abil
ity to keep up socially. For the
average child who starts kinder
garten or first grade too soon,
both the intellectual and the so
cial demands of school attend
ance are more than he can com
fortably meet. This can only
mean the kindergarten and first
grade are unhappy, uncomfor
table experiences. It may mean

Maynard Hamilton was down to

1. We'd like to show you some of
the things' that make the Ford
one ut' America's finest cars . . .

the NEW '56 FORD !
It's the fine car at half the fine car price !
2. Here, on your left, is the inspiration
for the styling of the '56 Ford the
famous Ford Tlmnderbird. Look at
those broad, flat hoods, for example.
Here is styling that will stay in style.
3. Here's what you ride on. This frame
has five cross-memliers including a
special K-har memher up front. It can
really take it! By the way, the control

give you a new lease on driving enjoy
ment. It's available in Fordomatic Fair

available iu any mode!.
5. Note the deep-center design of this new
Lifeguard steering wheel. The wheel rim
is over three inches above the post to
help cushion the driver in case of an
accident. It's a feature of new Lifeguard
Design which Ford spent over two years
developing ... to give you added pro
tection in case of an accident.
6. This Lifeguard cushioning for instrument
panel and sun visors is optional. It gives you
extra protection when thrown forward in
an accident. You may also have optional
seat belts to help keep occupants securely
in seats.

7. Here's Ford's new Lifeguard door
latch. It is another memher of Ford's
new Lifeguard family. A double-grip
locking engagement reduces the chance
of doors springing open under un
usual strain of impact. Chances ol
serious injury in accidents are less
when passengers remain in the car.
Well , that covers the important points. But there's a lot
more. So we'd like to invite you to come in and see the new
'5fi Ford for yourself. Then you'll see the colorful new
exteriors and interiors, the quality workmanship that is
evident tvtrywkrrt. Then you'll learn the full story. When
you do, you'll know that Ford is the fine car at half the
fine car price. f.c.a.
