SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1928 Hp A -- THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE } During the 1848 uprising i in the Hungarian mountains the tarragoto, an ancient horn of the Hungarians, became a national symbol and was used to rally the men of Kossuth in their war for freedom, When the revolt was eventually quelled the Austrian govern- ment proscribed the horn because of its con- nection with the uprising, The tartan of the Hanoverians is another horn suppressed by despotic government because of its powers to convert the patient peasant into # fiery patriot and stormy friend of freedom. Neither the tarragoto nor the tartan ever gauged a revolution or other revolt against established authority, Like the Scotc bag- pipe, and the national anthems, these primi tive musical instruments were used fo im- prove the morale of the insurgents, not to make revolutionaries of royalists, Suppres- sion. of the singing of the "Marseillaise" would not have prevented the French revo- lution, Thus are results often mistaken for causes, and symptoms. taken for diseases. Society is the cause and the individual is the result, and yet society blames its shortcom- ings op the individual, A similar relation- ghip between the whole and its competent parts is that of government and voter, but ip this country the individugl or voter, al- though theoretically self-governing, assumes no responsibility for the failures and mis- takes of his government, + TWO BIDES There are two pides to every question. This is just ss true in advertising as in an ' srgument. In advertising there is the side * of the advertiser and the side of the public. From the viewpoint of the advertiser in the newspaper, advertising is a means of in- creasing his volume of business. Commercial development has made advertising as neces- sary to retail business as customers, With. out customers the gdvertiser could not re- main in business, so he advertises to attract customers. The other side of the question is that of the public, To the public newspaper adver- tising means the bringing of the store show cases to the office and living room. It js 8 | service extended to the public by the adver. tiser, because it aids the customer in ascer- taining where that which is wanted can be : Jurchaecd at the most advantageous price, Newspaper advertising has gholished shop- searching. Ju kore tune itor Se napyes * lengthens his day. So although there are two sides to news- : advertising, there is no disagreement i the two. Finding that advertising gerves the public as well as business the has two reasons instead of one for oa ising, and the customer learns that ? the most pr essive merchants are the most extensive advertisers, so there is a double attraction. By the nature of business, if ad- vertising didn't help the buying public it ould not help the advertiser, Bs | PRICES THAT ARE RIGHT JHE GHANA DALY TINES, SATURDAY.

As the public becomes more and more ex- acting in its demands that prices shall be right, it becomes more and more the prob- lem of the seller to convince the buyer of the reasonableness of his prices. As long as we can maintain flexible and competitive markets free from artificial control, it will be increasingly difficult for the seller to push goods at any but the right price. EDITORIAL NOTES No man is fit to marry a perfect woman, but fortunately few have to do it. Little experiments make matrimony more interesting. For example, try being polite, It must be nice to be so rich that you're not ashamed to ask the clerk for something cheaper.

We lay them lovingly away, The rompers of a youpger day, The little collar edged with Jace That once made sweet a boyish face, The little dresses daughters wore That Japger daughters need po more-- We fold them with a tender hand, And children just can't understand Why mothers sigh a little, too, The way that mothers always do. Yes, time its changes always brings, And now we turn to other things. The clothes are put away upstairs, But not a mother's hopes and pray'rs. The dresses I shall not regret If children come to Mother yet; I pray to heaven they shall find A mother's understanding mind.

TIME BRINGS CHANGES (Fort Rowan News) On a visit to Toronto a few YOATS ago a gentleman was pstonish- #d to gee 80 many young men and older 'men hurrying along the treet on Sunday mornipg with ig Bibles under thelr arms, A few years later he saw men carry- ig leather cases, apd concluded that the Bible students hapa cooled in their ardor and had pro- cured satchels to hide their Bi- blés fn, About that time men were occasionally observed sneak- ing 'through the baek stree's with fishipg tackle in their hands. Last Sunday morning they carried them openly and made a parade of them. There was some Pharisee about the parade of the Bibles, but it was quite harmless. bh Toa A.

In the British Columbia elee- tions on Wedngsday the only twe woman candidates were defeated, and as & result Mrs. Mary Smith, whe was the first woman Cabinet member and the first woman Speaker in the British Empire, has been retired to private life. - Not one woman candidate was placed in the field by the Consery- ptive party, and the net result of the campaign is the total, eliming- tion of women from the Legisls- ture. To be trubtful, the great major- ity of women have po hent for po- litical life, and very little interest n political activities; many of them use their franchise st elec- tion time without a great desl of enthusiasm in the matter and, it is to be feared, with but a scanty 'knowledge of the issues involved. It may be that this condition will disgppear, and thet women epndi- dates for office will be accepted as # matter of course and women vot- A generally will follow politics closely--but just at present the fair sex is making but little pro- gress in these respects. SFI, i | YEBR-- Woeo >on Feature Improved od Performance of New Buick Increase in Power Obtained Largely Through Refine ments in Engine -- Va- Took a Etminated With a Mechanical Fuel Pump Being Substituted Dazzling as it is in its mew "masterviece" bodies by Fisher the 1929 McLaughlin-Buick makes an equally strong bid for apprecia- tion on the basis of improved per- formance, For its six-cylinder valve-in-head engine is almost one- fifth more powerful than hereto- fore, and the entire chassis has un- 3 13 | dergone a commensurate enlarge- ment. 'The power increase has been ob- tained largely through refinements in the engine. There has been an 11 per cent increase in the pion displacement of the larger engine, and a 12 per cent displacement inergase in the smaller. The bal- ance of the added power is due to changes in the carburetor and manifold system, re-designing of the camshaft and provision of a new muffler in which back pressure is reduced to a minimum. There has been a marked im- provemeent in the automatic heat control unit built into the fuel in- take system. This device deyelop- ed~for McLaughlin-Buick is re- sponsible for the engine's rapid warming up in cold weather. The butterfly valve which controls the flow of heat from the exhaust manifold toward the carburetor and intake is now made of a spe- ela] heat resisting metal and its shaft is of larger diameter than formerly to prevent bending at ex- treme heat. To insure efficient fuel supply throughout the long speed range of the new engine twu main jets are incorporated in the carhuretor instead of the former one. MeLaughlin-Buick has now eli- minated the vacuum tank substi- tuting the mechanical fuel pump with which experiments have Deen carried on for many months, The pump which is driven off the cam- shaft, does away forever with the fuel failure under heavy engine load such as prolonged high speed or steep grades sometimes impose, The action of the pump is regu- lated entirely by the amount of fuel in the carburetor bowl, drag links in the pump mechanism idl- ing when the supply on hand 1% adequate. The fact that economy of fuel consumption has heen maintained in the 1920 McLaughlin-Buick, de- spite the marked increase in pow- er, is an indication of the extent to which refinements of existing features, rather than mere en- largement of the power plant, fig- ures in the car's improved per- formance. Many parts, both in the engipe and outside of it, have been strengthened by the use of costlier materigls in their manufacture. The car is heavier than heretofore, but ite new power is more than sufficient to give it brilliant per- formance despite additional weight. Operation ig smoother than ever before, too. There is a heavier crankshaft, with larger main bear- ings of the steel-backed inter- changeable type, heavier pistons and pins, apd greatly strengthened propeller shaft, "differential, apd rear axle. In other words the im- provements in the engine have been carried right back through the epn- tire driving mechanism to insure gllyound first-class performance. A pew feature is the provision of tiny "waves" in the faces of the clutch plates to pffeet gradual en- gagement of the driving apd driven faces, and thus soften the clutch setion. The eptire clutch gssembly is now piloted accurate ly within the flywheel, so as to run dead true at all speeds. Minor refinements, the aggre- gate contribution of which iB 13u- pressive, will be found all through the chassis. The double-drop frame is pow straight slong the sides, and its chanmel side memr- bers are of heavier steel, rolled top and bottom for additional strength, Additional cross-mem- bers, and drop-forged supports, in- stead of stampings, are used. The torque tube is of heavier gauge steel in all models, as is the rear axle housing. The front axle 1- beamy is more massive than ever before, and the safety factor of the front wheel spindles has heen in- creased. All established McLaughlip- Buick engineering features, includ- iy vacuum ventilation, the seal- ed chassis with jts air clegner, gasoline strainer and ofl filter, are perpetuated and improved. The ceptralized system of lubrication, adopted in the 1928 car after ex- baustive trial of every type of sys- tem fis retained. Grease nipples in inaccessible points beneath the car are extended to places within easy reach from outside, so toat it is mever necessary to erawl up- der the car to grease it. The sys- tem could be employed practically only on a car having torque tube drive, for in other types, it would be necessary to lubricate the umi- versal joint, at least, by erawnug underneath. In the McLaughlin- Bulst. this point is lubricated frome the transmission. A notable refinement in the 1u- brication system is the bafle pro- : |vided in the differential housing, added to improve the differential lubrication in light of the extra [Mish speeds at Which the new cor operate Among the piscelisnavus provoments he found in fhe c5- £ine 2nd chassis of the pew ear are steel-backed Focker arm bush- ings, heat treated ~ larger intake and ex! néw and larger oil pump. ren battery and new coil assuring hot- ter spark, metric spark pluge, ce- signed for long life upder the de- mands of higher compression, uvw tooth design in starter gears, as- suring long life and better crank ing, soft, thick rubber engine mountings to insulaté power plant from frame completely, vastly im. proved ahd more easily operated steering gear, hardened and grouuy steel bushings in the universal joint, bushed spring seats, new and stronger shock absorber supports, and tougher alloyed steel in all gears throughput the driving me- chanism. CLIFF 60 FEET HIGH SHATTERED BY FOUR TONS OF t DYNAMITE Sault Ste. Narle, Ont., July 27. --One of the most gigantic blasts known to hav: been fired in Can- ada was touched off at the Domiu- fon traprock quarries at Bruce Mines when 8,126 pounds of dyna- mite crumpled a cliff 60 feet hig: and between 300 and 400 feet long. It is estimated that 17,000 yards of solid rock, weighing more than 45,000 tons, was thrown out in the blast. The dynamite was loai- ed into six coyote holes and one well drill hole fused with Cordeau Bickford. The well hole was drill- ed 40 feet hack from the face of the cliff and gix coyote holes, or tunnels, each 30 feet long, were built in the face of the cliff. So deeply was the # ~am'*~ embedded that it simply upheaved the great Tock formation, breaking it up into pag! ders approximately 10 by ih but there was no debris scat- tered. Just. prior to the blast a crow was seen sitting on the face of the cliff absorbing every detail of the operation. * FORD WILL DEVELOP OWN RUBBER SUPPLY Detroit, July 27.--An expediti mn aestined to' develop for the Ford Motor Company an independ: :t source of low-priced high-grade rubber, with an annual yield suf- ficlent to make tires for 2,000, 000 auto. iobiles, sailed from hers teday for Santarem, Drazil, in the motor ship Lake Ormoc.
