Where the first Ford teas made

THE Ford Motor Company was organized in 1903, but the idea of the car originated many years before that As far back as 1890,1891 and 1892, Mr. Ford was working far into the night on what was then called a horseless carriage or a gasoline buggy. “It first began to run satisfactorily,” he recalls, “in the spring of 1893. I was running it when the bobolinks came to Detroit and they always came on April 2nd.” This gasoline buggy was the first and for a long time the only automobile in Detroit. Interest was so great that it became necessary to chain the car to a lamp-post to prevent curious people from driving it away.

Equipoise, early favorite in both the Preakness and Derby, is ready for the two big tests, his trainer said today. He was scheduled for a public trial between races today to prove he is in condition for Saturday's event. DE PAUW THINLIES WIN B v Timas Special GREENCASTLE, Ind., May 6.

Curt Walker

The veteran fly chaser the Indians obtained from the Cincy Reds, Curt Walker, hit his stride after the Tribesmen got out on the road, and his batting average has been increasing gradually.

All of the earlier experiments on this car and a number of others that followed were conducted m a small one-room brick shop. Finally, in 1903, the Ford Motoir Company was organized and in 1908 the first Model T Ford was offered for sale. By the season of 1909-1910, the yearly output had increased to nineteen thousand and on May 31,1921, the five millionth Ford came off the assembly line. Less than ten years later, on April 14th of this year, the total had reached twenty million. Production of the twentyfirst million is now well under way. These are tremendous figures, yet they hold an importance beyond mere size. Each of these millions of Ford cars and trucks has played a part in the daily life and activity of some owner; extending his horizon, giving him increased opportunity for happiness and success.

The shoulder injury he received two weeks ago has failed to heal.

accelerated the pace and progress of this country and contributed to its growth. Those who write the record of the past quarter of a century agree that the coming of the lowpriced automobile changed our whole manner of living —of thinking —of doing! Coincident with greater and greater demand for the Ford was the building of a vast industrial organization for its manufacture. The small brick i shop became a series of plants covering thousands of acres, in every part of the world. The fruits of larger production are improved quality and craftsmanship, lower costs to the public, higher Mages to the worker, and an industrial “back-log” of great value to the nation. The Ford car of today is better because of the experience gained in making the millions of Ford cars and trucks that hav e preceded it. There is no substitute for time and experience. Ford materials and Ford methods are the product of both. The Ford name is built upon them. Today’s Ford car, in everything that goes to make a good

automobile, is unquestionably the greatest value in the history of the company.
