A bridge over the 6usquehanna

in 1885 by the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. The plans for the bridge
were drawn after conference with

when locomotives already had
weighed three times what was held

They Were Foolish Il Does
Not Break Contract

Users Of electric current ct Shet.
enne must live up to their agree
ments or else show cause why they
should be protected from their own
folly, the state railroad board haa
held in a case affecting the electric
rates at that place.
When the Otter Tail Power COM
pany purchased the independent elec-
trio company 81 sheyenne, several
years ago, 1t proposed q schedule Of
rates applicable at that place.
BY agreement with city Officials
and electric consumers OF the town.
however, the rates were raised two
cents per XVIII with the understand
ing that the additional revenue would
be turned over to the owners OF the
local plant to compensate them for q
loss on their property. sustained when
current from the transmission line
came into use. Under this agreement
the Otter Tail company has collected
and turned over to the owners Of the
local plant about 81 900 q year.
Recently. however, electric CONSUME
ers OF the village demanded q reduce
ton. contendtng thai the Otter Tail
company. when It sought permission
to provide service for sheyenne, agreed
to furnish current at q specified rate.
but that the rate charged Is higher
than the one originally proposed.
In denying the petition the rail.
road board reviewed the history Of
the case and finished by saying 1t
was unable to determine II the rates
1or Sheyennc are unreasonable or
what the rates should be on the basis
OF testimony offered 1t the hearine.

CAPITOL THEATRE

Romantic comedy is the answer to
the public's demand for something
new. So declares e. H. Griffith, d.
rector Of Rod La Rocque's three most
recent Pathe starring pictures, Cap
tain Swagger." Lover Over Might y
and Hold Elm. Yale"
by far the greater number of
motion pictures have depicted the
thorny pathway Of love, showing OBJ
stacles in the way of affection, or
tragedy attendant upon it, before
working things out to q happy con-
Summation in the end.
Il think that people are ready for
the pictures showing q more refresh
Ing and spontaneous variety Of hui
man affection. No individuals in the
world have as much fun together as
two young people in love with each
other. It Is the perturbation Of love
that Is able to laugh that I term
romantic comedy. It combines mirth
with tenderness and farce with bub-
bling youth"
Captain Swagger," which comes to
the Capitol Theatre tonight, Is said
to be . splendid example Of romantic
comedy. In addition TO- Rod La
RQque as star, its cast includes Sue
Carol. Ulrich Haupt, Richard Tucker
and Victor Potel.

Harvester Company
Grants Vacations
With Pay in Future

In response to numerous inquiries,
George A. Ranney, vice president and
treasurer Of the International Har.
vester company, has made public the
following statement regarding the
company's newly adopted plan grant
ing vacations with pay to workers In
all its factories and In sales branches
In the United States and Canada, &C.
cording to word received by the Bis
marck branch.
After long and careful considera-
ton, the directors, and officers Of the
Harvester company have put into eff
feet plan for yearly vacations with
pay for factory employees and for
hourly pay employees 1t branch
houses, who comply with certain
clearly defined requirements.
THE plan will apply equally to
hourly pay and pieceworkers. One
weeks vacation with pay will be
granted to employees vi'h continuous
service records Of not leGs than two
years and with Satisfactory records
for regular attendance during the
preceding year. employees with INC
years or more continuous service AKA
similar satisfactory attendance rec
ords for the preceding year Will be
given two weeks vacation with nay. l
1.-THE management believes, and the
plan frankly states, that the success
and continuance Of this vacation sys-
tenn will depend chiefly upon the CO.
operation Of the employees. Undoubt-
eddy the principal reasons why vaca-
lions with pay have not been more
generally granted to employees In In
dustrial establishments have been the
additional expense involved ana the
Of maintaining production
schedules. The Harvester company
believes that the cost of vacations
with pay should be offset, and inter-
ference with sustained production
avoided, by increased efficiency and |
decreased absenteeism on the part Of |
The employees.
1.-THE vacation plan has been en-
Enthusiastically received by the entire |
organization. and the MANAGEMENT |
hopes that the cooperation Of the en-
ployes and the condition Of the BUSH
ness will warrant its continuance"
