Teacher's College,
Friends Aroused
CEDAR FALLS, Ia., ' Oct. 12.-(Speclal
Telegram.) The drastic action of the
State Board of Education with reference
to the removal of the college course from
the State Teachers' college here has
aroused the protest of every cltlsen In
Cedar Falls and Black Hawk county.
Manv attorneys have been consulted ort
the question' and the consensus of opinion
from these source is that the action of
the state board was- unconstitutional and
that the board exceeded Its powers. It is
not thought legal action will be necea
ary. Were the decision of the board
carried out the teachers college would
drop from its rank as a model teachers
college to nothing but a training school
for grade and country school teachers.
The work of President Zerly for nearly
thirtv vears would come to naught and
cause a death blow to plans for higher
educational interests of teachers ln.iowa.

(-!
Five years ago, the standard price for 40-taorsepower cars,
equipped, was around $3,000. And they were not equipped as now
Some of the very cars which now sell around $1,600 sold then
at $3,500 and up.
' Another fact is that the finest cars, and the best equipped, are
now in the Forty class. '
This is a startling revolution, and you who buy cars ought to
know how It came about.
The Trend to Forties
First came a trend among motor car buyers to 40-horsepower
cars. The demand for this type has now become overwhelming.
Men who started with, small cars came to want something
larger. They wanted more comfort, more appearance, more room.
And they found, above all, that they needed more power.
Men who bought heavy cars over-powered and over-priced
came to want something more economical. '
So all classes of buyers, by the tens of thousands, came to
choosing Forties. And motor-car makers awoke to the fact that a
Forty of Borne make was bound to be the leading American car.
Then 72 Makers Started
Then maker after maker began to maie Forties. Hundreds of
the ablest engineers gave their whole time to Forties. Now there
are 72 factories turning out cars close to 40 horsepower.
Among these makers there developed a rivalry such as never
before was known. Cars of this class were built better and better.
Then makers equipped them as no other cars are equipped.
Yet with all these improvements, prices dropped and dropped,
because of the fierceness of this fight.
Now, with 72 makers competing, you can get a Forty, splen
didly equipped, for what stripped Thirties sold for but a short time
back. And you can get more for your money in a Forty today than
in any other type of car. ;
It is up to you to get the advantage. ;
The Michigan M40M
Four Years to Get Ready
Four years ago we saw this fight coming, and we started out
then to get ready.
In those four years we have sent out 5,000 cars, and watched
every car'B performance. We have made in four years 300 improve
ments. ' ' i '' :'' ' -:
,
We brought to our plant some of the ablest men In the busi
ness. and gave them time to do their level best. We built up herev
a model plant of enormous capacity, so making cost was cut to the
minimum- , '
Now we have a car in the Michigan "40" which no maker ever
excelled. We have equipped it better than any car in its class. And ,
we have fixed for this season a record price of $1,585, equipped. .
With this car we intend to win this fight of the Forties. We
are bound to win out against every rival, with buyers who make ;
comparisons. There's not a car in this class which, prices consid
er 1, even approaches the Michigan.
