THE PHILANTHROPY
OF HENRY FORD

Henry Ford, manufacturer Of the an
tomobile bearing his name, has JUS
completed what is perhaps the mos
stupendous profit sharing undertaking
in the world history. To 100000 pur-
chasers Of his car during a single year,
ne returned to each the sum Of $50, or
a total Of 49, GOO, 900.
In these days Of big business, when
the public has become accustomed TO
reading of mammoth deals, involving
millions, but little attention viii be
peid to the story Of Mr.. Ford's NUM-
ficence. But by stopping to go into the
details, and by making comparisons,
tine full force of the deed becomes i'm.
pressive.
1t is probable that in the state of
Nevada today there is not more than
five millions in available cash, and
there is likely no more than that
mount in each of the states of Ari-
ztna and New Mexico, or, in other
words, the entire available cash IN
three states of the Union will no more
than equal the amount refunded by one
manufacturer.
1t is not known whether or not all
% the checks were drawn on one bank,
but it is hardly likely, as there are
very few banks in the country in pos
session of that much casn, over and
above their legal reserve.
If more of the large manufacturing
and other concerns of the country viii
now follow in Mr.. Ford's footsteps,
the labor problem will soon be settled.

Occasion When Lord Salisbury Vast
ed Little Time in Getting Into
Dinner Costume.

The late Lord Salisbury, says Count
Paul Vassin in his book, Behind the
Veil at the Russian Court" shared
with the rest Of his family, the defect
OF being rather careless in his dress
and general appearance. Lord Odo
Russell, who long represented Eng
land at Berlin, told Count Vassili this
amusing little anecdote in illustration
Of that characteristic:
One evening" says the count.
Lord OdO and I were chatting about
Lord Salisbury's attitude toward his
personal appearance-not ill-natured-
~, for it is doubtful which Of US had
the greater admiration for the remark
able statesman in question-and Lord
Odo Iaughingly mentioned to me his
surprise when one day, after the din
ner bell Of the embassy had been rung,
he found Lord Salisbury, who was liv-
ing there. still busy at work in his
study.
He rushed out said the ambassa-
dor, and before 1 had time to put
aside the papers on the table, literally
In three minutes, was back again
ready for dinner. Now in that time
he could not even have washed his
hands, yet there he was in evening
clothes! 1 could not help asking him
how he managed to dress so quickly
"Oh, my dear Russell" he said, any
one can change his coat at once, and I
had black trousers on already. ~

eyes came away from the face of the
man he had not wanted to capture, and
he shook his head

there stands a 115-foot tower located
in the Sitgraves National forest, in

these men with a very limited equip

the districts, but because the area
was covered with tall timber and
had a very gentle slope, but one
good, natural lookout post could be

timber was so tall that the tower
would have to be at least 100 feet

were sufficient to build a tower of only
