BORROWING MONEY.
Be Sure Deferred Charges Can Be Met
Before mourning Them.

One reason why corporations have
not been looked upon with friendly
eyes is the fact that they have adopt
ed financing methods of which we
don't approve.
You and | have been taught to be-
lieve that we'd better do without a
thing unless we have the money to pay
for it. To us that seems to be safe
and sane thrift doctrine.
But when corporations became nu-
merous they adopted another plan.
They decided not to wait until they
could pay for what they wanted If
they could borrow money with which
to make the purchase. They began
to load upon themselves deferred
charges"
Certain charges of this kind, Of
course, are justified; when it can be
proved without the shadow of doubt
that what will be earned by borrowed
money is more than the cost of the
loan, borrowing is justified. But not
otherwise.
So intelligent thrift practice fn the

by the same test. If you're going into
debt to buy a home you should be able
to demonstrate automatically by bor-
rowing money to buy home you will
in the end save more in rent than the
cost Of the land and house, repairs and
taxes and insurance.
You have no business to place any
deferred charge upon your individ-
ual resources or those Of your family
that those who come after you will not
cheerfully pay because they recognize
that it is just charge. The test ought
to be:
IF I should die tomorrow would
my heirs prefer to go on meeting these
charges rather than allow them to
be defaulted?" 1t is when the answer
Of either the individual or q new board
Of corporation directors is in the mega
tive that we see the unwisdom Of
much borrowing in anticipation Of ben
efits or earnings.
If you're honest, deferred charges"
have to be met, and if you have had |
much experience you will know that it |
isn't often that the future develops as
well as you think 1t wilL-John M. Os-

Automobile News

Ia the operation of road testing par
adopted by the B. +. Goodrich company
the Overland roadster is proving its SUR
dy qualities under the most trying con
ditions.
The car has been equipped with wheel
weights of special design calculated to
make opel alton extraordinarily gruelling
both for the car and tires. Heavy weights
of 118 pounds each are bolted to the
wheels, giving "a dead weight absolutely
unrelieved by the springs, When driv-
ing, the result is series of shocks on the
car which far exceeds any that could be
received in the course of ordinary usage.
The heavily weighted wheels drop to
the bottom of every depression and hit
every elevation with force equal to the
mass multiplied by the velocity several
times. A combination shock is given
when depression is encountered. First
the wheel drops into the hole like shot
and then comes the terrific strain on the
Car through the springs to lift it out
again. The performance is repeated every
time the Overland strikes cross walk,
car track or hole of any kind.
1t would be difficult to imagine a more
severe test than that given under these
circumstances. The tours cover every
sort of roaG that the driver of car
would be likely to encounter. Over the
smoothest brick roads the heavy weights
cause the wheels to register every crack
in the road.
The average days run is $50 miles. dur
ing which the car gets more actual pun
ishment than il would receive in the life
time of the average motorist. The car is
kept at the test work every day, having |
been chosen for the work because of its |
ability to withstand the shocks necessary |
to make the tire testing success.
