About Oils and Fcuiuments

Question-Wh Of the Standard Oil
stocks do you consider the best invest
ments? For net dividend return
Surety of continuance Of dividend
And for hope in rise in price OF stock p?
Is American Car and Foundry the best
bargain among equipment stocks .
ii. G. B.
Answer-It is difficult to answer
your question. If you mean what
former Standard Oil subsidiaries yield
most at present prices We would say
Buckeye Pipe Line, over per cent
Eureka Pipe Line, about 10 per cent
Indiana Pipe Line, over s per cent
New York Transit Company, over
per cent. We cannot say whether these
companies are going to continue these
payments, nor do we care to predict
the course of prices. Standard Oil of
New York and Standard Oil of New
Jersey, while not offering so much in
the way of yield, are good stocks
American Car and Foundry is good
stock, SO are New York Air Brake and
Railway Steel Spring. We don't know
which is best. The dividend policy is
an uncertain factor always. Just re-
member when you buy these stocks
you are specializing, though in sound
enough enterprises. Perhaps it would
interest you to know that an official
of one of the Standard Oil companies
recently told us that the speculation in
oils had been overdone. But of course
they are very conservative people.

Not Speculative Investments

Question-Kindly advise me your
opinion Of the following securities as
speculative investments at present
prices: Hudson g. Manhattan adjust
ment income S per cent bonds, Manhat-
tan Elevated 7 per cent stock (guaran-
teed by marlborough. M X.
Answer-Hudsen G. Manhattan adj
justment per cent bonds are a specu-
lation-not speculative investment.
Manhattan is said to be costing the
Interborough the amount of the rental,
S4,200,0G0 per annum. Should the In
terborough be unable to continue pay
ment of the rental the property would
probably then be operated by the stock
holders. But would not .he road be in
just the same position as at present Z?
Nevertheless, at $50 share, the stock
seems attractive as speculation,
though not as an investment.

But above the ruins Of autocrati

DuC ABOVE Cnc ruins OF auCOcr0ClC
governments that have fallen in their
struggle against Principle arises the
rainbow of promise of a Federation Of
men and nations based on divine JUS
tice, Federation where right, not
might, prevails. The covenant of ma
tions to prevent wars and to relieve
the oppressed has it's conception on a
right basis and is long step toward
that divine unity of men and nations
of which the multitude of the heavenly
host sang above the hills of Judea,
GLORY to God in the highest, and on
earth peace, good will toward men,"
likewise, did not the English poet fore
see this coming event of nations when
he sang,
"Men, my brothers, men the workers,
ever reaping something new;
That which they have done but
earnest of the things that they
shall do?
Till the war-drum throbbed no longer,
and the battle flags were furPd
In the Parliament of man, the Fed
Grafton Of the world"
AS time goes on it will be more and
more clearly seen that love is mightier
than hate, that divine understanding
supersedes human wisdom, that spirit
ual strength succeeds brute force, that
human thought will no longer rest up
on matter, but will look to Spirit as
the only cause and creator, and men
will refuse to be influenced by selfish
considerations but will live on the
basis that "in Him (God) we live, and
move, and have our being" as St. Paul
declared. This period of reconstruc-
ton, this destruction of mortal concep-
tions and the unfolding of divine ideas,
is now moving swiftly forward and the
past few months have witnessed the
downfall Of two modern Jericos-
military autocracy and, in the United
States, the liquor traffic-and great

MAY RUN BULL
 FROG CARS HERE
Shore Line Electric Railway Company to Try this Type of Self Propelled Conveyance.
May Solve the Problem of Interurban
 Transportation

As means of attempting to solve the problem of interurban transpor- tation on the Shore Line Electric rail way, officials of that company are soon to give trials to the so=ealled bull frog cars, which are now being used with much success on other roads. These ears are self propelled, and are driven by gasoline engines. They are said to be much less expensive to run, and can Se mace to pay where the traffic is not sufficiently heavy to sup port the electrically driven car. The cars run on the regular street rail- way tracks, but, being propelled by self contained engines. do not use the overhead wires. This means a great saving to railway companies, since the upkeep of the poles and copper overhead wires constitutes big Item in trolley road expenses.
 For over two years this type of ear has been used on the Bangor X Afoostook railroad in the state of Maine, and the service covers a terri tory over 100 miles long.
 When the ears for testing purposes arrive. they will be tried out, in all probability on the Coventry or West Mystic divisions of the line, where they cun be used without interfering with the regular types of cars, and here they can show to best advantage all the possibilities of the bull frog type. The cars are so named because of the fact that the front end, or nose, is much larger than the other part ot the body
 Should the regular electric ears be taken from the Putnam division, as IS believed by many will soon be neces- sary. and should the bull frogs de monstrate their worth to the satisfae- ton of the officials, it is not at all i'm probable that they will be used to re place the larger cars.
