GOODYEAR COTTON COMPANY
 EMPLoYEs TAKE s1o,ooo STOCK Prompt to Improve Opportunity Made
 Available By the Corporation.

Employes of the Goodyear Cotton company. Inc, at the big plant in Goodyear, .f1ocked forward Friday to embrace an opportunity to invest in profit sharing stock Issue which the concern made available for them. and late in the afterno6f13 the returns at the office showed that the men and women who, are working in the plant had subscribed fer an -evens $10, 900 worth of the issue
 When interviewed relative to the sale of the stock. which began Friday, will close on Monday and is open only to employees, Agent Robert w. Boys said that the stock whicn the en1- pioyes are taking up SC enthusiasti- ca1iy is an s per cent. issue of cunlu-. lativc preferred stock of the compahy
 The employees who take it are in some cases paying spot cash and iri other cases are availing themselves of the company's offer to allow them to pay as little as s1 per week per share Those who have taken the stock on the weekly payment plan swit. have six per cent. of the income from that part of their shares which remain unpaid tor deducted by the company, lnay- ing them 2 per cent. net income from the unpaid portions of the stock for which they subscribe.
 Dividends on the stock start imme liately. There is also the special pro vision that all employees who take the stock and who remain steadily in the employ of the company until March 1. 1919. will receive a per cent. bo- nus on their stock. making it earn to those who have paid for it in full al time of subscription Il per cent per year. g4
 The stock is being put out to the employees at par. $10b share. Tn three years the value or each share will be advanced to $105. in years tr s110 in 10 years to s115. So it will be seen that the employees who have bought the stock and paid cash and who hold 1t through the ten year pe- ried. also remaining in the employ nf the company, have an investment that will earn them 13 1-2 per cent a real bonanza
 Agent Boys said that up to $ O. clock Friday evening about 2s peI fcent. of the employees had subscribed TH plan of profit sharing with ths Ifmployes is new among the big mil concerns hereabouts and it is attract ing a great deal of interest.
