RICH PLANNING
LARGER OUTPUT.
At Meeting of Stockholders 1t
Is Decided to Greatly En-
large Activities.

On Friday October p, the rich
Corporation invited those interested in
the company, including shareholders, 70
attend a meeting for the purpose Of
disclosing fully the condition OF the
company's business, believing that those
who had contributed in any form to the
upbuilding of the company We're enti-
tied TO as much information as to its
activities as the stockholders and Off
GERS. and at that meeting condition or
status was shown that was most graft
flying
Contracts backed by deposits from
dealers for cars aggregating. both in
domestic and foreign trade, more than
10000 were shown. The capacity Of
the company to turn out cars according
to the high standard which it main
tains is now over 80 cars per day.
The report showed that the company
INDUCED in the fullest confidence Of
the meeting and that cost of operation
and production was such as to afford
safe margin to the company, and also
indicated conclusiveIy that fairly COM
pared the car gives as much to the
public at the price, a any car on the
market The reports from the dealers
and from the public as to the satisfac-
ton given to users of the cars were
extraordinary.
| One Of the purposes the management
| had in mind was to learn whether those
! interested in the company deemed 1t
better to limit the production to such
as the present facilities of the company
| enabled them to place upon the market
or to undertake to meet the greater de-
mand by enlarging the activities of the
company. At this meeting most I'M
usual tribute was paid to the company
and the car production. Every one at
the meeting assented to plan of oper-
alton for the company during the next
| year whereby its output will not be cur
tailed and its financial position made so
secure that despite any rumors that
may have been behind them, the friends
| of the car, its users and those inter-
ested in its success show that 1t may
be positively assured that the RICH
is in the field for an even greater sue
cess than 1t has enjoyed in the past,
and Will continue to meet the increas-
ing demand, whatever 1t may be.
| The RICH Corporation advises that
within the near future they may have
some further details conflrmatory here
of to give out to the trade, as well as
! the public.

The new Studebaker six which was
driven down to Atlanta from Detroit
by Chief Engineer and Designer Haz-
lett will be sent from Atlanta through
the sands and bad roads of south Geor-
gia. and Florida on the final crucial
test
Harry Cohen, of Atlanta, and George
tai department, will make the trip, and
their instructions are to drive the car
as hard as possible and give it the
toughest treatment that any owner
would possibly subject his car to. In
explaining the idea of this trip Mr..
Hazlett said:
I'VE have tested this car over noun
tains and the worst roads in the central
section, but we haven't had the oppor-
tunity of trying it out on the sands of
the South. We want to put this car to
an absolute test on the sand. in order to
find out which of our three radiators
is best suited for the South. If the
car heats up the boys will put on the
other radiators, and we will find by
actual test which we will want to put
on cars for Southern trade. Details
of every mile and the behavior of the
car in each mile of travel will be fur
nished me- and I can know then just
what is best. | have told these bows
that l don't want them to take care of

Window Displays Everywhere.
II would be impossible for me 20
comment on the success of the Atlanta
show without mentioning the attrac-
tive and attentive compelling power Of
the window displays placed in windows
Of all the leading dealers in Atlanta.
The design was simple, but highly ef-
fective. The arrangement or the tires
in the dealers windows was identical
with the ones placed in the branch win
dow at 223 Peachtree In addition. the
branch had "Wingfoot" worked in
sand on the floor A large non-sllid
tire was run over the wet sand. thus
leaving the imprint of the deep cut
blocks which clearly and apparently
demonstrated the non-skid properties
Of this popular non-skid tread.
These attractive and tasteful win
dows decorated with show colors added
much to the gayness and festivlty Of
the Auto City of the South
Wherever one went one heard wagers
and comments on the height, size and
capacity of this famous balloon. Every
toy balloon on the street showed that
Atlanta had Balconies" Despite the
fact that the Goodyear shipped special
~ from Milwaukee did not arrive early
in the week. Manager Hyde put up the
balloon with Illuminating gas from the
city plant That the balloon did go up
and save disappointment was due to
the superiority of the city gas and to
the initiative and resource of Mr. Hyde
and his men in getting a special pipe to
the balloon. Mr. Hyde also announced
that owing 20 the delay In the So hy-
drogen tubes sent from Milwaukee the
balloon would remain in Atlanta until
the hydrogen arrived. Then that it
would carry up friends-no matter how
long il took.

believe to be true at the Capitol At
conference Friday afternoon be-
tween Senator Guggenheim, his brother
Daniel, Vice President Sherman and Sec
rotary Fisher information was asked as to
just what the government intends to do
in regard to the Alaskan coal deposits
and what chance there Is for the opening
up and operation of the coal lands in
Alaska that are wanted by the Guggen-
helm interests. No definite conclusion
was reached at yesterdays conference,
neither the Guggenheims nor the govern
ment submitting any propositions.
The principal coal deposits in Alaska In
which the Guggenheins are interested are
the Boring fields in which are located
the defunct Cunningham claims. The

Where Moral Courage Comes In.

ChrlstIana Dickson, the wife of
one OF the first settlers of Erie
county, Pa, was a small, blue
eyed, low-voiced woman, ex-
tremely timid, but she had a hor-
rOr OF drunkenness.
She lived in the days when the
use of liquor was universal. But
when her sons were born, she re-
solved to put a stop to whiskey-
drinking in her home. Her hus-
band being absent. her brothers
called for the help of the neigh
bors, according TO custom. to put
up q barn needed on her farm.
They all assembled and went to
work, whilst she prepared a great
dinner. After an hour or two,
whiskey was asked for. She re-
fused to provide il.
Her brothers and, at least, an
elder in the Church came to reas-
on with her to tell her that she
would be accused of meanness.
Without a word, the woman went
to the barn, and barring her head,
stepped upon a log aud spoke to
them.
"My neigh5ors," said she.
this is a strange thing. Three of
you are my brothers, three of you
are my friends. have prepared
for you the best dinner in my
power. ii you refuse to raise the
barn without liquor, SO be it. But
| would rather see these timbers
rotted where they lie than to give
you whiskey."
The angry men went home, the
little woman returned to the
house, and for hours cried as
though her heart would break.
But the next day every mar came
back, went heartily to work, en-
Joyed her good dinner, and said
not a word about whiskey.
Tnis led to the discontinuance
OF the use OF whiskey at barn.
raisings in the country. Her
sons grew up strong, vigorous
men, and did good work in help

the world; their defendants are
all of a high type of intellectual
and moral men and women. III

Facts About Indigestion and lis Re
lief That Should Interest You.

Although Indigestion and Dys-
pepsia are so prevalent, most PEG
pie do not thoroughly UNDERSTAND
their cause and cure. There is
no reason why most people should
not eat anything they desire-if
they viii only chew it carefully
and thoroughly. Many actually
starve themselves into sickness
through fear Of eating every
good looking, good smelling and
good-tasting food, because it does
not agree with them.
The best thing to do is to fit
yourself to digest any good food.
W. believe we can relieve Dys-
pepsia. We are so confident Of
this fact that we guarantee and
promise 10 supply the medicine
free Of all cost to everyone who
will use il, who is not perfectly
satisfied with the results which it
produces. We exact no promises
and put 70 one under any obiiga
ton whatever. Surely, nothing
could be ~fairer. We are located
right here and our reputation
should be sufficient assurance Of
the genuineness Of our offer.
