STILL TRADING So FOR $40

Despite the incessant warnings of
bankers and newspapers, certain
concerns still find it possible to ped
die for $1,000 merchandise that can
be bought in the open market by
anybody for slightly more than 5000.
This merchandise is the sO-called
units" or bankers shares" in the
Ford Motor Company of Canada,
Ltd, which are being offered around
the country by so-called dealers in
the stock at $40 a unit" or "share." p"
These units" represent ownership
of one one-hundredth part of share
of the capital stock of Ford of Can
ada. AS this is written, the last
sale of stock of Ford of Canada on
the curb market in New York was
for $618 a share. Since there are
100 bankers shares" or units" is
sued by these outsiders against each
share they hold in trust, the actual
value of these units" is only about
$6.1S each, while $40 is being asked
for them.
This is another instance of an
honest security being mishandled by
outsiders. The Ford Motor Company
of Canada is an enterprise of strong
financial position and large earning
power. In the twenty-one years since

FELTON,

Sweet potatoes are selling for
$1.75 per hamper at the storage
houses in the vicinity of FELTON,, and
it is generally believed that higher
prices will prevail later. The loss
Grom shrinkage and other possible
chances for damage to the sweets in
shipment during the excessive cold
weather of winter, has caused the
growers to start the potatoes to mar
ket for the Christmas season. AS a
general condition, the demand for
sweet potatoes declines after the
holiday season is passed, and with
TINS III view, growers are taking
profit on the crop for this year. The
crop was not so large as that of
other seasons, but it has made grow
ers satisfied to have the present
high prices.
Revival services are held at the
FELTON, Nj. Z. Church and some of
the sermons preached have been
fOrceful and aroused a religious
feeling that has gone through the
church and community. Several dur
ing the past week professed to find
religious peace and comfort in con-
version to acceptance of the Chris
tian belief in Christ. 1t is believed
that the results this current week
will be greater than last.
The wonderful storm of last week
made dirt roads treacherous for au-
tomObiles to travel over and those
who have the concrete highways
over which to haul their potatoes
and market the crops, are well sat
isfied that they reside along such
helpful arteries of trav-
ell.

his double is an informatory double and

An informatory double is a double Of
