If a farm home is modern, it tends to keep the youth at home. It promotes , sociability. If we are remodeling our home the features we would include are, a recreation room and bathroom facilities. It would not be an impossibility for our Farm Forum to sponsor a farm improvement campaign, but not feasible.

Tel, 113 Exeter $ I EXTRAIT CHANEL PARIS The New 1950 Studebaker is now on display at GRAHAM ARTHUR’S These are the automobiles which generated so much en­ thusiasm when they were introduced, in Toronto at the Canadian National Exhibition. These new cars are so entirely different in appearance that it is difficult to do them justice by trying to de­ scribe them. We are particularly anxious for the people of this area to visit our sales rooms and see for themselves. The front end of the 1950 Studebaker is especially striking. It embodies an airplane fuselage-type hood, flanked by air-foil front fenders and set off by a chrome “spinner”, in addition to providing an ornamental touch, the “spinner” augments four front­ al openings which direct air to the engine for maximum cooling. The largest of these air passages consists of two oval-shaped honeycomb grille scoops located below the two smaller air chan­ nels which flank the “spinner”. Chrome moldings over these small twin channels contribute to the unusual decorative effect. The complete change in frontal appearance and fender treat­ ment will be of speial interest to automobile enthusiasts. It makes the cars look as if they are in motion even when they’re standing still. Riding and handling qualities are greatly improved, too. These are the result of a number of engineering refinements but are due principally to a modification of Studebaker’s balanced chas­ sis to include a new self-sahilizing coil spring front suspension. This involves a new mounting of the front wheels so that they strike road bumps at a retracting angle instead of head-on. In other words, “they roll with the punch”. They don’t take the full force of the blow. Another important change is an increase in the standard compression of both Studebaker engines—-the Champion and the Commander—from 6.5 to 1, to 7.0 to 1. This steps up the power and helps gasoline economy without making it necessary to use premium gasolines. Champion brake horse-power is now 85; and the Commander is 102. Newly designed instrument panels are located about four inches farther forward than previously, thus providing even greater space in the front compartment. Control switches are the push-pull type and gauges are grouped directly in front of the driver so that they can be checked at a glance. The steering column of the Commander and Land Cruiser is enclosed in an oversize steel jacket. The Commander tire size has been increased to 7.60 x 15 inches, The Champion is equipped with 6.40 x IB tires. All Stude­ baker tires are the extra low* pressure type, With wide-base rims.
