Perhaps no youngster had ever seen a more beautiful sight ... Over a little dam spilled the water of the country ditch. The homemade water wheel began to turn on its rake-handle shaft. Faster and faster it went. Next step was to connect it to an old coffee mill inside the woodshed. Pebbles were poured into the churning mill. They sparked and crackled like a Fourth of July dis- play, grinding noisily into sand to be used later for a casting mold. This water wheel was the first mov- ing device created by Henry Ford! Meantime, somewhere inside his inquiring mind, a dream was struggling to shape itself. A dream of other wheels that would one day turn to lighten the burdens of farm and industry . . . to change the transportation of the nation. Down the years, from water wheels to watches, to steam engines, to gasoline engines, Henry Ford's lively interest in wheels progressed. The rest is history—the history of America's automobile industry. FORD MOTOR COMPANY Yet the thought and spirit that prompted that long-ago experiment with the water wheel have never changed at Ford Motor Company. You still find here the ingenuity that is not afraid to be original . . . the wanting-to-find-out-for-oneself that always makes for progress. Today, this philosophy and the skills developed through more than 40 years are being applied to Amer- ica's vital needs. From this will arise new techniques to serve the nation even better when Ford resumes pro- duction of sturdy, comfortable trans- portation, priced within reach of the greatest number. As Henry Ford has said: "Our times are primitive. True progress is yet to come."
