VAIL MAKES REPORT
ON BELL TELEPHONE
Presidents Annual Report
Shows Greatest Year for
A. T. & T. Company.
WILL SPEND BIG SUM
Destructive Action From the
Governments Investiga-
ton Not Expected.

Although there are few Bell tele-
phones in Richmond, the greatest year
the Bell system has had is described
In the annual report of the American
Telephone and Telegraph company for
1912, issued yesterday.
The gross revenue for the year of
the Bell system was $199,200,0o0, an
increase of near $2O,000,000 over 1911.
The net profits available for divi-
dends were greater than the year be-
fore by $4,705,888 in the total sum of
$42,681, 1926. The surplus earnings
We're $13,221,110 as compared with
s$12,008,561 the year before.
These figures include the results of
the entire Bell system, but not the
Western Union or the Western Elec-
trio companies. The increase in divi-
dend payments was $3,493,3 39 in the
total of $29.460,212 paid.
The number of stations in the Bell
system at the end Of the year was
1860 an increase of S23, 449. The
toll lines of the system now reach
10000 places, as compared with Co.
900 post Offices in the country and
about $4,000 telegraph stations. The
traffic for the year, not including con-
Meeting companies, averaged daily toll
connections of $4,000 and of exchange
connections about 25,572,O0O, as COM
pared with corresponding figures in
1911 of $4,000 and 23,484,oOO.
The record of the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph company for the
year was an advance over that of 1911.
Net earnings were $37,907,644, an in
crease of $4,606,39S. The amount
available for dividends, s32 ,062, 945, is
equivalent to 9.57 per cent earned on
1894 .806,375 capital stock. as compar-
ed with s.64 per cent earned on
$320,949, 100 the year before. OF the
surplus for the year, amounting to So
O47,357, there was carried to reserves
$2.s00,000
President Vail says in his report:

was never brighter. Business indica-
tons are normal, our relations with
the public and with the public author

ENGLISH AND AMERICAN LIFE
Writer Makes Comparison of the Com
forts Obtainable In the Two
Countries.

If l had to compare the comforts Oh
life in England and America, and to
sum up the matter briefly, l should
say as far as life IN public is con-
cerned-that is to say, life in hotels,
restaurants, clubs and, perhaps, trains
lin England the distances being short,
the proposition is hardly the same),
and certainly railway stations and
buffets and all kinds of bars-every-
thing you get in America is superior,
but as far as life in private is con-
cerned-country houses, cottages,
farms, town houses, flats and rooms
the comfort In England is incompara-
bly, greater. writes Maurice Barring in
the Metropolitan. OF course, some
people say that life in private-home
hfe-does not exist in America at
all. But those are the kind of gener-
alizations | distrust. Personally
think a small private house in Eng
land is a much more comfortable af-
fair than a small private house in
America. On the other hand, l think
an American bar is much more COM
Portable and cheerful than our Eng
lish public house. Again, l think there
is a great difference between the Eng
fish country house, owned by the Eng
fish rich. and that owned in England
by the American rich. In the homes
of the American rich you will rarely
find a room in which it is possible to
sit down with comfort.
American clubs, again, are far
more human and cheerful than Eng
lish clubs. Anything more depressing
than the average English club can
scarcely be imagined; a series OF
rooms in which old men in different
corners grunt, frown and snore-the
rest is silence. In American clubs
you feel that everybody is alive and
that people go to clubs not to avoid
the society of their fellow creatures,
but, on the contrary, to enjoy 1t. And
that, after all, was the origin and the
initial purpose of all clubs.

PALMY DAYS FOR POETS.

Probably no poet ever enjoyed a
greater popularity than Thomas
Moore. He was the idol of Ireland.
A typical instance of the esteem in
which he was held is given in Mr..
Stephen Gwynn's biography. In
1885 Moore paid visit to Bannow.
"On the approach to this town from
Wexford-where Moore was met by
his host-the party was encountered
by a cavalcade bearing green banners,
and escorted formally to a series of
triumphal arches, where a decorated
car awaited the poet, with Nine
Muses. (some of the remarkably pref
ty girls) ready to place a crown on
his head. 1t had been arranged that
the MUSES. should follow on foot but
as the crowd passed in Moore made
three of them get up on the car"

Back 10 the Author.

The woman was the author of a
cook book that had been published at
her request with wide margins and &C.
casional blank pages for notes and ad-
ditional recipes. Often she had ex-
pressed a wish to see an old copy of
the book and find out to what use the
blank spaces had been put. One day
in a secondhand book store her hus-
band unearthed an old volume. Motto
ing that it had been anticipated freely,
he bought it. After a day or two he
said:
How about the notes in that cook
book? Were they Interestingly"
NO" she said curtly; they didn't
amount to anything"
When he got a chance he looked
through the book himself. Every note
the book contained was a remedy for
dyspepsia and stomach trouble.
