Thinking Ahead.
From a Dupont Inter

from a dupont interview.
During the war it became obvious that
we must develop peace time employment
for wal capital and facilities to MAIN
tain satisfactory earnings on our stock
and to prevent the wastage of plants and
equipment paid for out of war production.
To that end we sought investment in
lines that could employ our chemical ex-
perience and equipment. as we'll as assist
in our war production.
We therefore went into the dye BUSH
ness. because it utilizes the Jaw mate
rails and products required in the manu-
facture of military high explosives, and
we could convert explosive plants into
dye plants. just as the Germans had
reversed the process. Please note that
in maintaining the dye plants of Ger
many. America and all the allies were
assisting Germany in preparation for the
great war. Now by preferring American
dyes we can in like manner maintai
and develop a great defensive factor for
this country. while permitting the Ger
man plants to fall into 'innocuous
desuetude." The dye business uses acids
and pigments. the paint business uses
acids, pigments and dyes. so we went
into the paint business. A great user of
acids and nitro-cellulose is the msnu-
facturer of pyroxylin plastics, so we
bought the Arlington Company.

Now that the long drawn war ID
done, and peace abides in camps and
courts. we turn a moment from the
Hun to think and talk of helpful sports.
No armies now distort the maps. at the
behest of car or king, but we'll still
have u little scraps. our little tri-
umphs in the ring. While captains
whooped apd chargers reared. and SOL
diers fired the deadly gun, a new phe-
nomenon appeared. who packs home

heroic name. that by another Jack was
worn, has quickly gained a healthy
fame, and made a lot OF cheeses mourn.
Fred Fulton, who was ont to visit that
he would the champeen's crown.
ran up against this Dempsey fist, then
en- the .mourners' bench sat down. One
moment he was full Of hope, the next
in anguish dire he sat. and leaned
against a sagging rope. and asked the
crowd where he was at. Carl Morris
cried. ALIAS for Fred. that one SO
beautiful should fall! I'll punch this
Dempsey party's head, and stop his
fooling, once for ALL" But Dempsey
smote thai mass Of beef. and found the
vital place he sought. and Carl sat

sucG raw material. the fact remains that
the contrary is true.
Labor is one of the few elements neces-
sary to u newspaper plant which is now
being offered to a greater degree than
publishers can take, care of, owing to the
return of soldiers desiring their old posi-
tons o" new engagements and the diff
Guilty of providing work for those who
took their places.
In the white paper production it is nee
essary to cut most of the wood in the
winter time. and the additional labor
required is only now available to a linn
TIED degree. and by summer it will be
too late to get out the wood in the forests
for wood pulp.
Another very important factor which
enters into the high cost of paper is the
lact that there is an enormous demand
ior export. Publishers in Europe have
been obliged to nay fabulous prices owing
TO the closing of foreign mills and the
limited output in Europe.
The many publishers from various parts
OF the country at Minneapolis the 4th
instant unanimously decided to enter
INTO contracts for their entire years
supply at the big advance over last year
and going into effect the LIST of this
month, believing it necessary to do this
IN order to protect themselves on a
supply.

The most that may be said where,
as here. an employee is injured while sit
ting in his boarding tent preparatory to
going to bed, is that If he had not been
employed he would not have been'present
in the tent and would not have been
struck at the time ne was. In the same
sense, the fact that he was born estab-
fishes a ,causative connection. II he had
never come into being. he could not have
been struck by lightning. The same argu-
ment might be made for a claim against
one who sold a carriage to one who was

these things, but today they are of
an Indifferent quality. The islanders
DO not fawn upon him as the German
people used to do. and this hurts his
pride. His movements are under the
