BIRTH OF SIR ROWLAND HILL One hundred and thirty two years ago, on the 3rd, December 1795, Sis Rowland Hill, the originator of the ,..heap postal system, was born at Kirkham inster. He was educated at school by his father in Birmingham, of whieh ho afterwards became the principal, and whole he introduced an improved method of education, whie h was known as the Hazlewood system and exercised a powerful influence on the educational reforms instituted 01 Great Britain during the first half of last century, In 1833 ill -health compelled him to abandon the teaching profession, and ho co-operated with E. G. Wake- field in his famous endeavours to colonize South Australia on ideally perfect principles. Two years later he commenced his campaign to re- form the errors and abuses of the postal system, a work which placed him inetho ranks of the great bene- factors of mankind. At that time the cost of postage varied according to distance .and also according to the number of written pages sent, irrespective of weight, and two small pieces of thin paper would he charged twice as much as the heaviest letter written on a single sheet. The charges were collected by the letter -carrier on delivery, and the principal •hardship fell on poor people who could not afford to use the mails. The majority of the up- per classes of Vie community were able to have their letters carried free of charge owing to their connection or influence with members of Par- liament, all of whom possessed the, Privilege of franking letters post free, while business houses had num- erous illicit means of conveyance at their disposal to evade the heavy tax. Hill Compiled a vast collection of statisti^s which enabled him to show that the greater portion of the ex- pense of the postal sysem laid in he collection and delivery of the letter_, and. that the cost of conveyance dif- fered so little with distance that a uniform rate would be fairest to eta er'y000 concerned, He rightly estim- ated that the defici^_ncy in revenue which would result from a reduction in postal charges would be easily 011100 up by the Increased use of the mails• in' 1837 he published a pamphlet, h1 which he detailed the result of his investigations and his proposals fee reform and made the suggestion of a uniform rate of one penny per half ounce for any distance within the United Kingdon, the charges to be prepatred by oilcans of an adhere ive stamp. This pamphlet aroused an immediate and wide spread inter- est, and in the following year the Government was copsnelled to reluc- tantly appoint a Parliamentary cotn- •I"4'•J'•i•'t"Q•'1•.p,•l•'i+'II'•1"t'4�II"F'Q„4"3"3'•I'•I"i"II•,i' t 1.ES Wanted • Highest market price paid it for all kinds of hides.

Within two years he had the great satisfaction of seeing all his predicth'ons fulfilled.

Sixteen million automobiles, serving their owners in jungle and desert, on mountain and plain, on boulevard and highway, were the test cars that have made this new automobile possible. Its advent marks a new epoch in auto- motive engineering in point of inbuilt quality—niceties of mechanical design, lavish use of the finer metals, precision in delicate machining processes. Nowhere in its construction has there been slighting of either major essen- tials or minor details, From its outer- most hub -cap to its innermost bearing, the new Ford car epitomizes engineer. ing skill to a degree unexcelled in the annals of motor car manufacture. This entirely new car surpasses the accepted standards of light car accom. plishment; sweeps aside all boundaries of price class; establishes a new stand- ard of acceleration, speed, power and smoothness that heretofore has marked only expensive cars as fine cars. Yet Ford precision in Large scale pro. duction, unparalleled in the history of automotive manufacture, places this car within the reach of every purse.
