Cured, three OF which were from ac-

IL Is gratifying TO note the substantial
interest tho employees are taking in the
company as illustrated IN the foregoing
hbures' the result must tend TO promote
the general welfare Of the company.
Last year the directors OF the companv
recommended Offering TO the EMPLOYEES
OF the company 1000 shares OF preferred
stock Cor common stock at the option OF
tho subscriber) The plan was promoted
with a view OF further Interesting our
employees IN tho company's welfare. The
entire number OF shares was subscribed
and many payments have been made I'm
advance OF amounts required by tho
company. The second offer OF 1000 sharea
OF stock was made in December, 1909. and
was somewhat overmbscribod; the price
az which the stock was offered belnr.
substantially that paid for II by the COM
pany In The open r-arket. Tho result has
been co siderable increase in the num-
Der OF our stockholders.
Shares For Employees.
In addition to the above plan the COM
pany has continued for several years the
practice OF distributing shares OF COM
mon stock 10 worthy employees I'm the
way OF bonus. We believe that this plan
has great value in properly rewardine
exceptional merit in cases not calling for
increases in salary.
The company also maintains a system
OF pensioning employees who havo be-
come disabled or who have reached ad-
vanced age. This plan thereby provides
means OF retiring those who through
no fault OF their own have ceased to be
able TO serve the company.
We believe that the above mentioned
plans for caring for our employees are
OF substantial value 10 the company and
assist materially IN obtaining n per-
sonnel In our operative force which will
insure future success.
During the year the company has paid
regular quarterly dividends OF 1 Ia per
cent on the preferred stock. while the
dividend TO the common stockholders
has been increased 10 ? per cent quar-
terly. The dividend record for the COM
mon stock Is as follows:

the crew of a street car in the suburb
of Millvale and after binding the men
with ropes, started the car at full
speed Gown an incline. Conductor
Kinsey managed to crawl to the rear
platform OF the car and jerk the troll
ley from the wire. Otherwise Kinsey
and the motorman would undoubtedly
have been killed and the car wrecked.
