HENRY
WIIliTlTEtt oik: iipi-ces with Henry Foitl or disagrees with
liiin, likes liiui or doesn't like him, no fair-minded person
can deny that 'he is a very remarkable mini. , i
' He may not know the difference between lienedict Arnold
and Arnold Hennett, he may still consider .history, tlio bunk,
and art a waste of time; hut when he' considers the problem of
modern industry THE AVORL'D LISTENS. ' '
When the motor ear magnate, therefore, dwlnres the col
lapse of the stock market did not produce the pl'irsent business
situation') but the present ibiisine'fis; situation produced the 'col
lapse of the stock niai'ketj ft!) uyt of fv6tjfy H'K) people will ijrc
witli him. The dissenters wiirproba1(y be confined largely to the
.'reat financial leaders who have recent ly heen so insistent tha
tliero is'iiothiiif; and has beeii nothing the jnatter witji business,
.'except what lias been caused by loss'of confidence as a result
of the hea!r-i)anic in Wall Street. ,
,
M l!. FOIiD'S exlanation is interestiiif?. He maintains that
the wild hull-market of the past year or so was-created by
an extraordinary era of material urosperily. Such a market could
only bo sustained by an uninterrupted continuation of such
prosperity. A few months ftgo business started here and there
to slow down. Nothing alarming. Nothing unusual or unex
pected, dust a normal ebb in the economic tide, lint enough to
break the bubble of stock speculation and inflation. Henry
maintains it was only the temporary diversion of business men's
attention to the sensational market, that, pi-evented many of
them from seeing what was happening. He concludes: "It is
now clear to all that the real explanation of the present shine
lion' is not fo be found in stock market history, but in recent
business history."
"Whereupon, Ifr. Ford announces A wage increase for his
00,000 employes, to follow his unexpected' action a. few' weeks
ago in lowering the prices of the Ford ear. .
,
SUCH action is typical of thf? num. In-lunjinass lie has always
done the unexpected and the' unorthodox tWiiJr Breakifig
all the accepted rules of the manufacturing game, he has not
only as the saying goes; gotten away willi it; he has estab
lished an entirely new school of industrial practice.
faintiiiuihg mass 'product ion, and stimulating business by
increasing the purchasing power of the worker, have been the
two salient points in the Ford theory of business success. Until
Ford appeared, lowering 'prices and raising wages simply wasn't
done. The old theory was that the worker shared in business
prosperity and suffered in business adversity, lint Ford com
pletely reversed this principle. When business slows up, he
jifcrcaScs production and consumption by lowering prices) and
adds to the consumer's purchasing pow'cr by raising wages.
PKIilfAI'S the Ford luisincss is so unique that he can do !
things, the ndnlinl manufacturer cannot do. He may be
lis twisted in his economic ideas- as his enemies claim. But as
the richest ninn in the world, with a record of uninterrupted
business success, the burden of proof would seem to he upon
those who refuse to accept his theories. " 1
At any rate, right or wrong, Mig Business AVizard or Lucky
Foul, no one can deny thai Henry Ford is a most extraordinary
person, lie has followed no ne but. he has, J'roiu the first, hewn
out a path for himself utterly unique in the industrial history of
the present generation') And from the material standpoint,
which, after all is our accepted gauge, he has in an astounding
sense, made good. , .
T COACH McEWAN RESIGNS
Til K i'esixiinfioii of I'onuli MvKwim conies as no surprise to
fhosi! wlio know snnH'tliiiitf nbout t lie roaf situation at the
state university. Tlio former "West Point mentor lins not l)een
exactly a failure as a fuoball eoaeh, but lie bus not eomo up to
expectations, nor bus be matte a record commensurate with the
larj!e salary he has been pnhl.
In nil probability his resignation will be accepted and at
the end of his present contract he will step out and another
man take bis place. Who his successor will be we don't know,
but probably u man without a reputation from a iiationyvide
standpoint, who Mill be content with a smaller salary, and be
better tpialified to (piiet the turbulent political -waters sur
rounding I he temple of learning nt Kui'iiCi ,
In our opinio there are a number of available football
coaches who could do as well at I he state university as McKwan
has done. He has his friends and partisans who will regret to
seo him depart. Hut we don't believe his relireiucnt will, in any
way, lessen (hit chances of lurnin out a team which may re
turn Oregon to the enviable position it occupied in the football
world a few years ao.

to do with either of them as pos

cry for chalk a pound of prepared

Only a few years ago It looke.l
for a while as though the surg'eon.s
were going to take- over all peptic
ulcer cuses, and try various inter
esting procedures on them, from
gastro-entei ostorny or short-eir-
culling of the food to pylorectomy

under n bond of secrecy, lest the

Hut thanks to a few brave souls
like Alvarez, and Hippy, good doc-,
tors everywhere are now treating
peptic ulcer cases medically nnd
obtaining a euro in most cases
where the patients nbido by the
ndvlco given by tho doctor, and
never again get out of training,
once they arc brought into good

tt seems that tlio peptic ulcer
patient, Ilka the diabetic or tuber-!
cuIosIh patient, must keep on j
minding the rules for life ami
never relapse into bad habits after
tho trouble Is remedied. '
Many pep tie ulcer patients are
now successfully treated by fl diet
a ixl medication without confine

of the medical treatment ard fre
quent (two hourly) feedings," with
three regular meals of suitable
food, and more or leys alkalis In
the way of medicine to neutralize
exccssiV'i acidity. It has been
found satisfactory to use smaller
doses of alkalis than were form
erly employed, notably In the Slppy
method, and In some cases tho
large doses of alkalis produced

b'ft (n place, and through which
suitably prepared nutriment was
Injected directly into the duode

leuding physicians, In favor of fre
quent small feeding by mouth. j
Among the alkalis best suited!
for neutralizing excessive stomach j

What is tho best kind of soap,
where hands are very irritating
after washing withvsoap and wa
ter? Is cold cream good for this,
or can you suggest something to
apply before retiring? (A. Ji3. A.)
Answer. There Is no more reas
on to imagine disease can be con
tracted by handling public library
books than for Imagining It Is dan
gerous to handle bank notes. This
unfounded popular notion is prob
ably perpetuated by tho practice
still followed In some of the more
backward public libraries of "fum
igating" or "disinfecting" books in
lime of epidemic or scare. Any
of the well known brands, of toilet
soap is all right. Cold cream :s
advisable only when you . have It
freshly made by the druggist I
do not advise the use of so called
cold cream that Is not freshly
made on order. You may make a
good hand lotion by boiling in. -pint
of rain water or distilled wa
ter grains (say a tablespoonful)
of tragacanth in chips or shavings
(pot powder), until the tragacanth
dissolves into a thin jelly. Add
water to make up to full pint.
Dissolve in this three tenspoonfuls
of boric acid, and one ablespoon
ful of glycerin. You may scent it
with a drop or two of your- favor
ite. perfume if you like. The fin
ished product should be a very
thin, clear jelly. Apply a few drops
lo hamls two or three times daily,
after washing and before tho skin
U oulto dry. . The lotion Is often
used to soothe the face after shav
ing. It whitens and -softens red,
harsh,' chapped or irritated skin.

A TOY iTOKK
By Mary Graham Homier
Peggy adored riding the rocking-horse
in the. big old-fashioned
playroom wheno the Little Black
. .., Clock; had now
brought them.
John had. a
rldo too, but' H
was when Pegfry
was riding . the
rocking -horse
that she heard
the Joke ho had
to tell. ' . ;, "
"It just amuses
me so much," the
rocking - horse
said, going back
ward' and for " .
ward, and laugh-
ing :ln a funny, ,
hollow voice. It was just the sort
of a voice a rocking horse shouiijrf
have'and quite,- quite diffcrem,,
from tho voice of n real horse. ' '
"I'll explain," the rocklng-horso
continued. "A few years' ago ; I '
was so very popular. Kveryotie .
loved me. . - You can seo that from
the.: uneven5 way niy tail looks.
"Now everyone might not think
that that was a' proof ' of great
affection but a rocking1 - hor'so
Knows' that it, Ig. ','
' "They used to stroke, my tall
so often that It became a bit un
oven -some of the hairs we're
pulled out' through affection and
love. '". '
"They loved to ride me and' I
loved to have them. But then
mofe and more'of those toy motor
trucks and automobiles came Jn'to
the playroom and they became so
proud. . '
" 'Poor rocking-horse.' they used
to say to me, when we toys we're
talking among ourselves, 'pom
rocking-horse. You can only go
backward and forward when some
ono rides you. "We only have to
be found up and we can go all
around the room. ' : '
"And now! Now!" The" rocking
horse laughed some more.' "The .
motor trucks arid the toy outomo-A
biles aren't nearly so popular
trie toy planes which - will fly
around the room so those proud,
snobbish auto toys are quite put
In the background,,, and I'm Just
where I was all along." ; !
And the rocking-horse fejt hap
pier than ever for John and Peggy
rode and rode; They didn't go any
distance at all. But what did It
matter;' . They were moving back
ward and forward all the time!
Tomorrow: ong Distance Tele
phoning." . - -t -
