So far as the vacation itself was con-
cerned there remained nothing to do,
for nature dresses most attractively in
the Brule River country always. The
forests of jack pine, the wild life. the
crystal-clear waters are there. Trout
fash in the streams, black bass idle In
the lakes, while an occasional deer fits
between the trees
These things are ready for President
Coolidge at the Cedar Island Lodge of
the late Henry Clay Pierce, New York
and st. Louis hnancier There are.
however. a myriad of details of COM
munication and transportation to be
worked out in the fortnight remaining
before the President plans to arrive.
When these arrangements are complet-
ed the little island will be equipped as
place where the President not only
may have every opportunity for rest,
but also facilities for keeping con-
slant finger on the pulse of Nation.

REAL PROFITS"

When Henry Ford talks to nterviewers he fire.
queny says things that bear much thinking over 1t
was so the other day when he eXpounded of his the
ores about profits
In this or any other successful company" he re-
marked the real profits are increased experience bet
ter methods, more skilled wOrkmen and more highly
developed engineering brains These are the best pro
hts we gained from the 100000 Model T Fords
Money is not the best profit We took the other pro-
hts and put them into finer automobile better suited
TO the needs OF the present and the future"
At which point bright readers get the idea that
the money profits alone would have produced the
new Ford On the other hand neither would the real
protlts have been able to produce the Ford with
out the money. The two elements seem to be mutually
dependent in the case in point.
1t is conceivable that in business that fails for
some there would still be real profits" if its
owner learned the for the failure and began
again with that eliminated On the other hand
business that seemed to be getting along nicely as
to money profits might suddenly collapse because the
real profits were not recognized and used.

This step has not been actuated by any desire for
mere size but to develop the many advantages which
the association of these two properties will inevitably
accomplish in administrative, manufacturing and pur
chase economies. 1t also provides Immediately in.
creased facilities needed to for the rapidly eX-
panding ChrySler business.
Only the largest of units can. at this stage of the
development Of the automobile industry operate with
the efficiency and economy required to develop fully
the opportunities presented by the remarkable growth
of the market domestic and foreign for automobiles
The public is getting used to this of thing and

to benefit directly indirectly from this and other
similar developments in the automobile industry.

Records compiled by City Man-
ager w. X. Hopkins show that the
field, looked upon as an expert

broached, clears more traffic.
freight, airmai and passenger
than any airport in the United
States, and in the past few months
| its records have surpassed those
of the famous Tcmplehofer Field
in Berlin and Croydon Airport i'll
London.
The story of Cleveland S airport
goes back to four years ago when
! the question was looked upon with
doubt even by some of its most ar
dent supporters. Others, however,
were confident.
! The money necessary to start
! such an enterprise-mor than
! 81 ,OO0, ,000-was considered an
enormous amount to spend on
something that was not certain of
success. Two other obstacles were
! cnc0untcrcd-Ohi laws would not
permit a city to appropriate money
fer such purpose nor would they
permit a city to condemn land for
an airport.
I:ut Hopkins, believing there
j were great possibilities in the pro-
/ iect, fought along. And before he
, Lad spent much time on the ques-
/ tion, he had interested legislators.
The result was that the citv
council in January, 1925, appro.
! priatcd Sl125,000 to purchase and
j improve a tract of LOO acres, Just
I nine and onc-half miles west of the
heart Of Cleveland. The site was
/ selected on the recommendation of
Major.icncral Mason NJ. Patrick,
chief of the United States Army
Air Service, and Captain +. V.
Rickcnharkcr. World War ace.
/ Valued at Sl,50O,OO0
With the preliminarics out of the
way, the Postoffice Department
sent Maj. John Berry, its field
engineer, to Cleveland to assist in
conditioning the field. His work
was such that he was retained as
superintendent of the field.
The field is valued at 81 zoe. 900.
Private and public capital invested

cleared. The volume Of business is

A KINGS EAR

When Captain GOODWIN Archer Of the British
navy retired, died the other day in New Zealand this
was told Of him as the deed in his life emitting him
to fame: He the who had boxed King Georges
ears. He did it when George naval cadet on his
ship.
That was probably justifiable deed, but not one
to be generally recommended. Kings valu-
able, perhaps the most valuable part of them. Boxing
ears may break the drum and is important that
kings should be able to hear. Fortunately George
doesn't have suffered any i'll effects His hear
ing is as good as any living monarchs.
