Let no one deceive you
with arguments based upon
false premises and lack of
knowledge of the natural
gas business, that natural
gas should be cheaper be-
cause a few products easily
produced have d G. clined
slightly in price.
Natural gas can not be
produced except as it is
found existent deep in the
earth, and we must chance
the loss of a heavy invest
ment in each we'll drilled
and each area leased.
Our drilling experience
for the past year shows that
for each three wells drilled,
one dry hole is encountered.
Not only that, but the vol.
ume of gas from two pro-
ducing wells hardly equals
half that from one we'll but
very few years ago.
To date for the year 1924
the showing in production
per we'll drilled is even less
encouraging.
The argument that nat
ural SIS should be cheaper
has no sound basis in facts
a d d u ced by experience,
neither can The Logan Gas
Company be expected to
furnish it at less price
than the maximum received
by any other company in
Ohio.
The Logan Gas Company
holds no advantage over
any other natural gas COM

Frankly Discussing
Natural Gas Facts

"HE average dividend
received by the stock
holders of I h
Logan Gas Company since
thc>last rate increase in 1919
and to 1923 inclusive was
only 3.24 per cent. OF the
assessed valuation made by
the State of Ohio of the
company's property.
Every>dollar earned over
and above dividend pay
ments was either re-invested
in leasing, drilling and de-
velopment work, and pro-
duction and transportation
of natural gas, for better
service for our consumers,
or applied to the payment
of priority incurred indebt-
edness for similar purposes.
There has been no sur
plus in the earnings of The
Logan Gas Company in the
past five years, but on the
contrary if the dividend re-
turns are computed upon a
reasonable lawful basis,
deficit equal to more than
the amount of dividend
payments has been sus-
tanned. Courts and COM
missions have held that
return of not less than 8 per
cent is reasonable.
The reason for the poor
showing of the company's
earnings is the continually
growing expense iii main
tanning supply of natural
gas barely sufficient for
those in possession of it and
leaving nothing for expan-
sion of service, or gas for

ice all of its patrons, means for so doing must
be provided.
The Logan Gas Company has been compelled to buy
ing the past five years. at extremely high prices
yearly basis in order to take care of the winter demand
of its patrons Owing to the very small domestic con,
sumption, and the very little amount that can be sold
for industrial purposes during the summer the gas so
purchased is not of profit but rather burden
some expense upon the company's resources.
The foregoing is statement of facts which our
records will substantate These facts have to do with
the business of The Logan Gas Company and its ability
to serve its patrons No other company companies,
nor any other municipality municipalities can pre-
sent the same conditions situations confront
company and its patrons The price of natural gas to
our patrons must be what the company provide it
for and leave reasonable upon its investment
We giving you these figures to forestall the
capous critics who seek solve natural gas ques
tons by figures alone, declining consider the
vital elements of providing it which will very
clearly set forth in articles to follow.

Increase S 86,348.36
Average Dividends Paid 1923 were but
5.24 percent upon assessed valuation of property
of the company by the State of Ohio
Money can not be procured for investment in an
enterprise that returns little more than half the
legal rate of interest.
A reasonable return on the actual investment in
property, used and useful in the business is held
by Courts and Commissions to be not less than

Insistence upon return of percent would make

THE TOMB OF RACHAEL
THE BASIS OF THE DESIGN
FOR MORTUARY CHAPEL
TO BE ERECTED BY FREE
SYNAGOG,

The Free Synagos of New York,
which is under the leadership of DIR.
Stephen s. Wise. is erecting n mortuary
chapel on its Wcs.chester Hills Gene
terry at Mount Hope, n. Y.
1t will be called the Birdie Block
Memorial Chapel in commemoration
Of the wife of the donor, Mr.. Ben
jamin Block of New York ..s.,...
The ''Tcmb of Rachel" standing to-
day on the road between Jerusalem and
BCthlehcm is one of the few existing
buildings, which the Jews claim as
their own. Partly for this reason and
for its beauty of design this tomb has
been made the basis of the design of
this mortuary chapel. Tho chapel
proper, seating 90 people, will occupy
the central portion of structure %
wide and GO deep with Il vcstibule
and rest rooms in front and n receiving
vault with 2i catacombs in the rear.
The dome over the chapel and the pc
culiar arch ut the entrance the latter
shaped like beehive. are in size and
oii"p'f as rue lo lnc pGoIulNpe as an
adaptation TO modern conditions would
permit. The outside walls will be of
white stone and the dome of white cc-
mcnt. The utmost simplicity of its
lines and reproduction of the primi-
tive workmanship of the original will,
combined with its setting among trees
and lawn, give the effect sought
peace, beauty and eternity The front
doors of the chapel, as tribute to
the living. will be very beautiful, rich
ly carved and colorcd. Again the past
has been called on to furnish the model
and the doors of the Jaina Temple,
Borcda State, India, have been selected
for the purpose The interior viii be
of extreme simplicity, vaulted and
finished in cement of rough texture.
The chapel will marlle the centre of
the cemetery half way up the hill. 1t
will be plainly visible to the ceaseless
traffic of Sawmill River Road, yet far
enough distant so that the, worldly
hustle and hustle will not disturb its
peace and quiet.
The architect for the chapel is Wal
ter Haefeli, of New York, and tho CON
struction is in the hands of G. Richard
Davis and Co, Inc, builders of New
York.
