The proceeds of this issue will be used in the further expansion of this business abroad by embracing additional territory now open as a result of the ending of the war, and to further expand the manufac turing enterprises of the Company to insure the delivery of large orders which have accumulated. The sales for the first eight months of the present year exceeded the total sales of 1918, and are ovet 80 greater than those of 1916. The net earnings for the first eight months of the current year were 77,283.00, at a rate sufficient to pay dividend requirements on this issue approximately three times over. After making allowance for taxes, conservatively estimated earnings for the coming year should be sufficient to pay preferred dividend requirements seven times over, leaving, after the payment of the tegular preferred dividend, a surplus available for dividends on the Common Stock of $12 per share.

Many of our great institutions reason that as long as they must do this educational work they may with much profit go a little farther and give them a course of instruction in the technique of the business. 3 The employee in this way cultivates a greater respect for the business is equipped to do constructive thinking concerning it and becomes a real asset to the business. The fact that another large Philadelphia business house, The Abram Cox Stove Company, has added an evening lecture course for all of its employes is an encour aging sign. It adds just that much to Phila delphia's possibilities as an important! na tional and international trade centre.
