" Tho. question now proposed fr
civilization, or a good part of 1.
Is, in short, whether fathers can
any longer Justify themselves and
whether they oucht not, as a nutt
ier qf comtiHiii decency and self
'retipeet; to abdicate ami leave tlKIr
fihure In brtnfting up children to
o'fne n (fen ry competent to assume
the obligation. This Idea has been
put forward ndw and then at var
ious stages of clvllteatton. nnd it
seeins to nr.ve been pretty well es
tablished In practice before civil 15
-ation began, among primitive pej
'pie. But lt revival by certain efj
the Intelligentsia and the liheral-'
mlndetl. forward -looking elements ,
about us gives us something 'o I
think about. For example In hil
recent book, "Marring and Mnr
nls" Mr. Jlertrnnd Kusseli comes
around to this point:
It may, be and-Indeed I
think it far from Improbable
that the father will he com
pletely elimlnuted before long,
except nmoug the rich (sup
posing the rich to be not abol
ished by socialism). In that !
caRfli women will share their
children with the slate, not
with an Individual father. They
will have such numher of chil
dren as they desire, nnd tho
fathers will have no. responsi
bility. Hully for the fathers, who will
at last come into their rights.
someone may shout. Vet there
may be a slight bitch In the ar
rangement It is true that Mr.
-Kusttetl does not go o fur as Pluto,
who advocated elimination of both
father nnd mother In training of
the child, leaving that hlc func
tion Altogether to the stale. Vet
the point Is overlooked Ihut nft'r
a. good number of. centuries fv
PtVple hnve taken Pluto seriously
nnJ that It would be a marvel In
deed if, at this late date, we ghouhl
come around to his view.
Another difficulty enters with
tho fact that thU plan of dis
pensing with fathers is or has been
In use by certain uncivilized peo
ples, some of whom Mr. Itussell
mentions. Mr. liussell, like some
other modern writers, seems to
feel thnt because certain peoples
In remote areas have been found
without I'lvlllKittlon their mora is
and customs somehow nre Just the
models toward which we should
work.
The point Is that civilization litis
been working Just the other wnv,
disappointing as that may be t
any fathers who may havn been
tet up in hope by the revived bb'.-i.

buffers are now- being uned to give
a new degree of lustre and deptn
to the body finish on Dodge nroth-
ers cars. A new process that really i
amounts to burnishing the already.;
highly hand-polished surface of;
bodies nnd hoods, this operation ;
resulu in an Advanced stage of;
brilliancy unknown and Impossible
with the old method of hand ru.li-1
bing nnd polishing.
"Installed In pairs on either side
of tho factory production lino,
these electric buffers are operated
by teams of two or four men each. ;
This operation does not . replace ;
tny of the regular hand methods j
of lacquer application or polish-1
ing. hut Is done after the surface!
has been brought to tho ' highest j
lustre possible with the older meth
ods. The new process represents
the most important refinement in
the art of automobile finishing
since the perfection of the lucquer
(I4in) and the striping machine.
Approximately two minutes' time
Is required to polish each, car,"'
j says Clyde . Hakin. of the Eak.n j
Motor company, local dealers. ,
i ins uunt'fiuruiiuii on mo mid
points of achieving a truly artistic
effect In body finish is regarded
as the logical step In satisfying the
demands of a more sophisticated
nnd critical buying public.
"Offered tho choice of a pro
fusion, not merely of basic colors
or combinations, but also delicate
shades and tints such as twilight
blue, imnlnga maroon, Tuscany,
brown, Ansaldo green, etc., th'j
public taste has been elevated to
the stage where the mirror-like
sheen of the actual finishing pro
fess conies in for its shi.ro of crit
ical attention.
"Realizing this, Dodge lirnlbors
fuctorys officii' I t wi-ro quick to
adopt this new. advanced burnish
ing process. .Thus there has been
achieved a fine paint in enhanc

regarded as beautiful, finely-finished
