 On the return journey from Europe above referred to l found 1t neces- sary to make . very frank criticism ! of. certain ideas advanced by MT. Ford. It was to the effect that if he stuck to the things he knew, and let those alone about which his training had not qualified him to venture an opinion, he would avoid placing him self in foolish position. The crit ieism stuck. have heard him refer to it many times since. The last time he mentioned the matter in my presence he added, And I have come to the conclusion that the best friend one has is the man who tells him the truth" hope he will receive the critical portion of these pages in the same spirit. They are meant to help, for would like to see that halo stick.

CHAPTER I The Ford Halo

Not thing of art and beauty but of utility and strength-super- strength, power and endurance in engine and chassis. but somewhat ephemeral in it's upper works.

 What It's All About
 It is all about Henry Ford, so far as 1t goes, but 1t is not the story oi his life, not record of events be- ginning with his birth and brought down to the present hour. The Ford chronicles make interesting reading but they have been done in reel and rhyme and reams of prose. It yet remains to set them to music, and one of these days we may have a Ford symphony beginning with the faint flute notes of an infants cry swelling into the tremu1ous tragic tones of the strings, expressive of early struggles. and bursting finally into veritable din with crash oi cymbaIs, roll of drums and flare of trumpets,- giving a tone picture of the roar of Ford factories and the rumble of the chariot wheels of sue cess. and ending-but I leave that to the musicians.
 Those who like to do that kind of thing may set down in order the events of MT. Ford's life-the stories of boyhood days, the struggles of early years, and the achievements of later life. Personally, I am more interested in the operations of that mental machine which he carries under his hat than in all that other machinery of iron and steel massed under the roofs of those vast build ings in Highland Park and on the banks of the Rouge. I know of nc study more absorbing than the Ford psychology. and I find myself turn Ing to it in my leisure hours as to a form of pleasure and recreation. One finds so many things in 1t that are hot in the books.
 So, what follows is not the life of Henry Ford. but an attempt at an Interpretation of him in series of brief chapters, or essays, which are lot strung together on any logical br chronological string. They are Is beads loose in a box, and you are 1t liberty to take them up and eX- lmine them in any order you please.
 I have not written with the pub lie in mind. but rather because the fascinating character of the study I was pursuing made 1t necessary to get it out of mind in order that l might turn to other things I have not worked as at task. but as at an absorbingly interesting as well as a more or less entertaining pas time. as one would work at a psycho- logical puzzle such as the unusual mind and baffling personality of Henry Ford presents. As a matter of fact. what follows was meant to be a brief introductory chapter to a book of another sort But that first chapter slipped it's tether and ran away with itgelt and with my thought and time. It seemed en- dowed with a sort of amoebous power divide and suhdivide itself until,

MODIFY ORDER TO
LOCAL GAS COMPANY

An amendment and modification of
the order recently issued to the Rich
mond Light, Heat and Power company,
has been announced by the public
service commission of Indiana. The
modification makes two changes in
the original order, both in rates of in
terest.
The rate of interest on the $211,700
first mortgage bonds is set at 50. per
cent instead of five per cent pro-
vided for at first. The preferred stock
had been described as bearing inter
est at eight percent. This is changed
to read seven percent.
The amendment follows:
1t Is therefore ordered by the pub
lice service commission of Indiana,
that petitioner, the Richmond Light,
Heat and Power company, be and it is,
authorized to reorganize and refinance
its outstanding capital obligations I'M
der the plan herein above described
and to that end is authorized to issue
and sell $211.7O0 face amount of its
first mortgage bonds at the face value
thereof bearing interest at not more
than six percent per annum and $780,
900 of its cumulative voting preferred
stock, bearing a cumulative dividend
rate of seven percent per annum, the
proceeds of such sale to be used in the
retirement of portion of its outstand-
ing capital obligations and for the pur-
pose of perfecting it's reorganization
plan in such manner that after the
reorganization of it's capital account,
the total capital obligation shall be as
follows:
First mortgage bonds at six percent,
100000. Cumulative preferred stock,
seven percent, 100000. Common
stock, 100000.
1t is further ordered, that in all
other respects said order of Feb. IA,
1922. as modified, shall remain in full
force and effect

the liquor thus produced does not kill
outright or bring about total blindness
Immediately, as does pure wood alco-
hol, but it attacks the nerve tissues
and digestive organs in such a way as
to produce total paralysis within a
year or two and eventually blindness
and death
Some idea in the increase in foreign
imports may be had by the increase
of the customs revenues for the first
two weeks of February. For that
period they amounted to over $4,000
900, which was more than twice the
amount collected for the same period
a year ago.

of which is now inaccessible. In an
interesting and well written preface
on national customs. Chalif says:
The fact has to be faced all the
same that some beautiful and precious
things must perish with the passing
of the old order. Noble trees must
often fall to make room for building.
To follow up the simile that exquisite
wild flower the national costume will
be rooted out as the fields come under
cultivation.
And acres of greenhouses full Of
orchids and rare exotics will not con-
sole us for kind natures free gift Of

In discussing the difference between
the costumes of men and of women he
says:
"In Russia. though the female is the
bird of gayer plumage, her mate is
not content to be quite such n sober
colored foil TO her splendor as is the
man of western countries. He has
some holiday adornments which he
-dons for village wedding or church
festival over his full trousers Of
dark hued velvet he will put on a
bright red belted smock and his patent
leather boots glitter superbly Or
perhaps. instead of the black patent
leather he will display footwear of the
finest Russia in a rich green or red.
