Mr. Bacher said: "This is SOS, 900
more than it should be, as he allowed
in this valuation II passenger cars
which were owned by the Wilmington
Trust Company"
Mr.. Bacher said that under the
Crosby valuation the net earnings of
the company would pay a dividend Of
l9 per cent, and that Mr. Hoifs fig
ures would make a dividend of 80 per
cent. on the stock. The Supreme
Court set 6 per cent. as a reasonable
rate Of interest.
Mr.. Bacher said that in report

sion of the "A miles OF tracks and

enec at criticism of the court, he felt
that he was of some use to his fellow
man in serving the court
Mr.. White spoke on the subject of

Truthful Words
Written for THE EVENING JOUR
NAL By James T. ciozier

'Tis human to err. TO forgive Divine
Is a saying that's old, but true.
And yet we meet those who are so
sublime,
Who feel they can neither do.
They can always see notes in
another's eye,
While their own is so ftte ana clear.
And they pass along as Ne time goes
As though they had nothing to fear
The Good Book says, LAS We SOW We
shall reap"
| believe that those words are true.
And to those who trust i'm their
morals to keep
Then-What will become of you
When your time is up, when You reach
the end,
With loved ones around your bed
Too late, yes, forever, too late my
friend
To repent for the life you have led.
But praise the Lord; in that same old
book.
You can find them in many a place.
His own sweet words. that win bid
you look.
Unto Him; and be saved by grace.
With a childlike trust you will have
that joy.
Which this world cannot take away,
His blood every vestige of sin will
destroy,
And will strengthen you day by day.
