True Success Story

By F. Ii. MacArthur

To everyone who drives an auto-

mobile the name of Henry Ford is familiar. It was he who first gave the world a cheap, ugly but very efficient auto. From I hum- ole beginning. Ford forged ahead to become the greatest manufact- urcr in history. building an indus- trial empire valued at hundreds of millions of dollars and making its founder one of the richest men in the world. I Henry Ford was born on a farm in 1863. It was ii poor farm and a poor family that operated it. Re- calling those days. Ford used to say ”I fancy I heed about ten thousand miles without getting rnywherc". and he despised the .ong hours of toll.

Even back in those early years, young Ford often wondered why somebody did not make machines that would lighten the farmer's labor and his own bitter exper- iences made him long to try his hand at inventing some labor-saw ing machine such as a cheap farm tractor.

The young man's dream could not become a reality at'the time because he was so poor he could neither afford the time nor the money to do a bit of venturing on his own. But when he left the farm to work in one of the Edison factories, he saved up enough money to start a little business of his own.

So he undertook to bring about the task of departmcntalizing in- dustry. a,.task which Whitney had started many years before without much success.

"First we shall build a cheap car” said Ford. "The whole world will be our market, and once farmers get used to driving their own cars. they'll take to mechan- ized machincry as a duck takes to water."

But the poor. fricndless man did not have all clear soiling. The few partners he chose to help him with his work all had various ideas as to what type of auto would best meet the public needs. Ford's idea was to build a car that could be manufactured in al- most unlimitcd numbers and with- out changing the model every ycar. His ideas were laughed at. but he went right ahead with his plans and became. as we all know, the most successful manufacturer history has known.

Once he got into mass produc- tion, he cuttdown the working hours of his men from twelve to eight per day and gave them each S500 a day as a minimum.

The once poor farm lad's indus- trial empire expanded so rapidly that he could not get enough sup- plics,'owing to strikes, etc., to keep its wheels turning at top speed, so he bought his own coal mines, forests, iron-mines. rubber planta- tions and what have you. Now he ceased to be merely a manu- facturer, and his branching. out into other fields made him a ty- con of many enterprises.

Before his death. he was forced to change some of his earllerldeas. For instance. he found that buyers were interested in the appearance of a car as well as ils efficiency, and so models were changed fre- quently and came on the market. in several colors instead of the mourniul black of the old Model '1'. which has not disappeared from the roads.

His factories, however. are still models of efficiency and are well worth visiting if only to get a first- hand picture of a great industry which was brought into being by the boy who once toiled on a little farm. hoeing and cultivating and pondering deeply how he could free mankind from the chains of dreary labour.

The story of Henry Fordfs early failures and final triumph over all obstacles is one of the most fas- cinating tales ever spun.

Ford lived to see his dream of tractors working the land. pulling powerful cultivators. heavy wag- ons and combines which sow seeds and then cover them up-one trac-

.The retiring prealdeniF- Mrs. Catherine Prsught occupied the chair and opened the meeting with Prayer. The minutes of the last annual and last monthly meetings were read by the secretary, Mrs. Leonard Murphy. The president than read an interesting report of the years activities of the League. she thanked Father Glllls and Father Gallant for their help and en- couragement, also the executive and all the members for their co-operation which made the past year's work the success It was.

During the year all church needs in general were looked after, including new surplices and scutsnes for sitar boys: flowers for altars; sanctuary floor re- novated; cntcchetlcnl prizes were gtvefi Junior and Senior grades. also a donation to the sisters of Martha who prepared the children for Confirmation. All diocesan and national fees. also donations to " l objectives have been paid. Donations were given Catholic Girls' scholarship Fund; Sister's of St. Martha. St. Theresa's Convent; Federated Christian Charities; Missionaries of Mary; T. B. League and Red Cross.

Treats or gifts were given pastors; altar-boys; san-patients: sick and shut-in's at Christmas. Knitting was done for St. Vin- cent's Orphanage, sLso boxes of clothing and food packed and sent to orphanage and social service and Overseas Needy.

Masses were offered for living and dead members, Funds to carry on activities

were raised by membership fees from 165 members; card parties and dances; plays and a lottery. The treasurer Mrs. Leo Mac- Donald read a. detailed report of the financial activities of the year. A total of 5979.18 was raised for parish work. 8431.00 was pass- ed in to the parish fund. Mrs. William Rooney was con- vener of nominations, assisted by Miss Catherine McEacherri.

The election of officers resulted

as follows :President.-Mrs. Joseph Mcfsaac. lst Vice--Mrs. Joseph Ryan. 2nd vice-Mrs. Emmett Wisener. 3rd vice-Mrs. John

Curley. Treasurer- Mrs. Bernard MacPherson. Recording secretary

-Mrs. Brendon Curran. Corre- spondlxig Secretary-Mrs. Gerald Walsh. Councillors-Mrs. D. J. Carmichael. Mrs. MacLean Audi-

tors-Mrs. Thomas Mcxenna. Mrs. Leo MacDonald-.

The pastor Rev. Fr. Glllls,then spoke to the ladies, words of thankfulness for work well done and encouraged all to do even better, during this Holy Year, for God and Country.

The Act of consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary was recited by the president Mrs. Machine. The meeting then adjourned.

'T tor doing the work of many men and horses.

Someone has calculated lhatnow it takes on the average only ten minutes of labour to grow a bush- cl of wheat, while eighty years ago it took three hours. It is reck- oned. too, that forty-five minutes of labour can produce I bushel of corn whereas it formerly took four and one half hours.

A century ago about three- fourths of the people lived on farms. Today about one-fifth are able to raise food enough to sup- ply the earth's population. The chief cause of this change is the invention of farm machinery.

Land can be cleared in less time: seed is sown by a drill instead of by hand; harvest fields are thresh- ed and cut by huge combines, in- stead of being threshcd out by flails. Fewer farmers can now raise more crops and better crops, than were raised seventy-five or one hundred years ago.

The mass production of the mighty Ford empire helped to make this possible. for other man- ufacturers were quick to follow in the footsteps of the man whose genius for getting things done on a big scale was common gossip all over the world.

MEWARD BOUND "0 on MOTORCYCLE;

Graduate of Upper Canada col- lege. in Toronto, Oswald Brachi. son of a British subject resident in Colombia. is headed for home on I motorcycle which he bought last year by working in the summer at a garage. Before he could be- gin his trip. he had to obtain visas for eight countries-U.S.A.. Mex- ico. Guatemala. Salvador. Nicar- sgus, Costa Rica. Venezuela and Colombia. before he could get passport. Oswald expects the trip in take a month. at cost of units will finisn last lap till it atcaiiicr.

by his own observation he believes that not half as much liquor is wt umed per capltr. on the Island as in Nova. Scotia. In this "con- nection he a'so noted the pros- perous appearance of Island homes. stlresslng the fact that you cannot have both liquor and prosperity. He mentioned the great ' harm he has seen done by the traffic especially in the Old country. He compared the little we have been doing to oppose the evil to picking at a. cement wall with s hatpln. If we are in earnest we must get at it with pick and shovel. The bus- iness is here to stay and drastic measures must be taken to over- come it. We should not allow our political adfiliations to keep us from voting against a party which favors 'the sale of liquor uuliho igcomniended that church workers write to members of the govern- ment and town council urging that there be no open bar in our city. He also mentioned the pre- valence today of liquor advertise- ments in most of our leading periodicals. Subscriptions to all such should be discontinued until all liquor advertisements are ethni- nated.

At the close of his address Mr. Douglas lead an open discussion on the question of liquor drink- ing as a social evil. etc.

Meeting closed with Hymn ice and benediction.

A dainty lunch was then served by the hostess and committee in charge and A social hour enjoyed.
