Needles and nails made his first watch tools
T
HE March wind rattled the
bedroom window. Hut the lan-
tern on the floor gave a steady glow
to warm the boy's feet.
Then his head bent even more
closely to the work. He nudged the
balance wheel—and life and motion
came back into the timepiece.
Watch repairing was coming
easier to young Henry Ford. He
had started at 14 and the first watch
(today in his collection at Dear-
born) had been mended with a
shingle nail, tweezers made from a
corset stay, and knitting needles.
Now he had real tools. After school,
hewasneighborhood watch repairer.
Everyone was enthusiastic about
his work, particularly because he
didn't charge for it. But it wasn't
money that interested Henry Ford.
Here was an opportunity to learn
by doing—and he was making the
most of it.
Years later, the watchmaker's
touch and the creed of precision
learned by Henry Ford in those
winter nights were to guide the
building of 30 million cars and
trucks. Moreover, it was Mr. Ford's
knowledge of watchmaking that
prompted inauguration of the
assembly line. This in turn brought
shorter working hours, increased
wages, made life easier, and is today
speeding equipment to preserve our
American way of living.
New cars belong to the future.
But when tomorrow's Ford, Mer-
cury and Lincoln cars arrive, they
will reflect anew the watchmaker's
skill, s the workmanship and engi-
neering resourcefulness that are typ-
ical of the Ford Motor Company.
As in the past, theywill be motor
cars that are reliable and econom-
ical, smart and comfortable . . .
irked within the means of the
greatest number. For Mr. Ford has
declared: "The profits we are most
interested in are those the public
gets from using the things that we
produce. The only real profit is the
public benefit."
