FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1920, TIRE COMPANY DIVIDENDS We read, the other day that the Goodyear Tire Company had declared a stock dividend o f 150 per emit rep­ resenting a cash divident o f more than $30,090,600 .to the stockholders. A t the same time, we see that the company will issue additional stock to the amount o f $30,000,000 needing more money. The surplus in the treas­ ury is now more that $40,000,000. Just why a company needs addition­ al capital stock with forty million cash on. hands many will not under­ stand, Our idea is that the company is only increasing the capital stock to defraud the government legally out o f excess profits. . Automobile tire users have fe lt for some rime that probably the last in­ crease in tire prices was not justified. Probably they were with some o f the companies hut with the* Goodyear Company the above is proof that ev­ ery user o f Goodyear tires-was pay­ ing an enormous profit to help swell the surplus fund to over forty mil­ lion and enable stockholders to get a dividend o f 150 per cent. Evidently the public will not rel­ ish some o f the unjust increases in tire prices which in the Goodyear case was not justified i f we know any- think abou.t finances. This is but pos­ itive proof that the public is paying a high prices fo r an article as the re­ sult o f the income tax. Which is re­ sponsible the company or the govern­ ment that permits such a law to be on the. statute books? . FESS STOOD ALONE. Congressman Fess was the only member o f the Ohio delegation in the House to vote against the sol­ dier bonus bill which carried by a large vote. The bill goes to the Sen­ ate where i,t is predicted it will be defeated. Senator1Pomeme is listed .against the measure while Senator Harding’s attitude is not known. . The American Legion is divided on the bill in-that It is untimely to urge, such a measure When'the count­ ry is heavily burdened with debt. The strongest Opposition is on the ground that any additional tax no matter how it is levied will add greatly to our present high cost o f living.- . I f congress could be made t o see the iwaste o f money in useless posi- tions-miid maintaining much o f the military work around camps,- there would be funds available fo r the bo­ nus. There is little .opposition to the plan o f giving this bonus but where thd money is to come from.

MANYUSINGSKIS Ancient and Exhilarating Sport Grows in Favor. Enthusiastic Devotees Are Hailing It as King of Winter Sports—Has Long Figured In History and Legend. A thousand years ago, or there­ abouts, ' some thoughtful Norseman found that long, thin strips of wood fastened to ids wnr-boots ennhled him ' to get over the snow-clad plains and |mountains of hts native land easily and with great speed. Before long all the hardy Norsemen were going I around to fight or to wassail on these I useful aids to winter travel, which i-Jbecame known as ski, pronounced by the NorsemenT as if spelled s-h-6. So popular did skiing become that, ac­ cording to Norse mythology, even ode 'o f the ancient viking gods went In for it Olaf Trygvasson, best .loved and tpdst‘celebrated of the old Norwegian* hero kings, is said to have been an expert skier. Another king, one o f the early flsakons, escaped from pursuers with designs on his life, by traveling five hundred miles on ski, over one of the most nigged Sections of Nor­ way. Norse soldiers were equipped with skis and-at the important bat­ tle o f Silkiestad ski regiments played an important part. In later times, during a war on. Norway conducted by Charles XII, Swedish scouts dis­ covered the location o f the Norwegian troops and compelled a band o f skiers to guide them through the woods at night.- The wily Norwegian skimen led the Swedes to n precipice, threw their burning torches down the moun­ tain side, nnd then made a quick "g^t, away.” The Swedes, following the lights, were hurled to death on the rocks below. While skiing m the be­ ginning was held in esteem, particular­ ly on account Of Its practical utility, its posslhiiites as a sport were also recognized after a time, nnd today it easily ranks as the king o f winter sports. “It lms gained followers. In a most surprising manner the pnst twen­ ty-five years,*' says G, O. Torguson, writing In Outers’ Recreation (Chi­ cago}. Ski associations have been or­ ganized in almost every northern coun­ try both In Europe and America, he, tells us. Recently dubs have been formed in the Rocky Mountain states of out* own country, » Tungsten, Nearly ftYoryhody La familiar with the tungsten filament electric lamp, bat few are aware that the flfemeut't which give so effective a light are made from metal without ever having been fused. The malting point o f tungsten is about 3,000 degrees C. (5,432 degrees F,), a temperature Which has been beyond that attainable In any ordinary metallurgical furnace. A method o f actually fusing this re­ fractory metal Has now, It is said by a German authority, been devised by a Berlin engineer, which will permit o f the metal being cast In any desired form, and o f bring subsequently worked Into any malleable shape, In­ cluding wire for electric lamps. In­ cidentally it would appear that tnng sten carbide will jiiao become avail­ able, and as this carbide Is practically as hard as the diamond—the d ’erence being only as 0.8 to 10—It will he used ip future for thoselkumerous grinding and cutting operations Wbicli cap only be effected at present by the diamond. Boy’s Prayer a Gem. Ex-Governor Stone of Pennsylvania, who has just passed away, was a great lover of horses, His pet, ns a youth, was a colt named Midnight. When Midnight—«U11 a colt—died, as the result of a tumble, the boy was inconsolable. He tells In his autobiography, "The Tale of a Plain Mon," about the fu­ neral he conducted in solitude over the body pf his four-footed friend. "1. had ho hook,. but I knelt down over his body, and tried to say a prayer. "I prayed: ‘Ob, Lord, if there is a horse heaven, let Midnight go to It 1 hope there is. as I want to see Mid­ night again. Make we'as good boy as Midnight was a colt.’ - “I had no audience, but a bluejay and n woodthrtish were singing, and I heard a squirred barking.' a bass chorus." It Was No Place for It.. The trial of Roliin Bunch, mayor nnd Horace Murphy, prosecuting at< tdrney of Muncie, was on in the Unit­ ed States district court at Indianapolis and every day Myncle persons and others who were acquainted with tin- remarkable case came too late to ob­ tain seats In the courtroom. A Muti­ d e young woman one day rushed im­ pulsively up to a man'* acquaintance whose- business took him Inside the courtroom, and finding all the seats were takeu she exclaimed, "Oh, cari’i you squeeze,me In there?" “No," he responded gravely, “ not In there." ‘ The New Way.
