Wheeler: it lies on both sides of Meridian St. northwest of the canal! bounded on the north hy 6st St and on the west by Illinois St. The development plat originally was approved by the Park Board Aug. 10, 1913, after the Works Board the Zoning Board and the City Engineer had approved it. The addition was annexed to {he City early this fall. Several major changes in the plat, however, necessitated resubmission to the Park Board. One of these changes was the deletion of the! boulevard right-of-way: another was the elimination of the extension of Pennsvivania St Mr. Gisler, in commenting on the Board's sudden acceptance of the revised plat today, said that the changes were too minor to warrant the Board's repudiation of its signatures.

Urges ‘Fussiness’
Dr. Knight that the only fault with trustees supervision is slowness in adopting improved methods. He urged trustees to be “fussy” about the selection of teachers and to give the teacher “a shot in the arm by sending her to summer school about every three years.” He suggested that rural schools have the same number of books as| the city schools and that trustees of cach county co-operate to provide reading and speech clinics and other educational advantages. The trustee-ruled schools also! were supported by J. W. Bosse of the State Department of Education He declared that the system could not be condemned because of imperfections on the part of a few.

The 1940 Plymouth, Dodge, De Soto and Chrysler cars not only live up to that high expectation—they exceed it!

Equally inspiring —urging us on to ever greater prog-
We believe—and always have believed—that quality goes beyond good machinery and good materials. It lies in engineering genius, care and precision of manufac. ture, complete and thorough inspection.
Furthermore, millions of Americans choose to believe that of all manufacturers, Chrysler Corporation is particularly and notably successful in achieving the com. bined goal of low price and highest quality.
The 1940 Plymouth, Dodge, De Soto and Chrysler cars are by far the greatest values we have ever built—in smart styling, size, luxurious tailoring and appointments, riding quality and performance.
We know it—our dealers know it—the men who build the cars know it—and it is common knowledge and talk throughout the country.
