 Ford Demonstrates Car
 Gray, Fry and Strelow were hesi ant about investing in this com pany. Ford drove the experimental car around the shop and through the streets. to show that it could run. He gave the prospective in- vestors a ride.
 Finally, and after much hesitan- cy Strelow decided to invest S5.000. Gray offered another 5000 at first, but later was prevailed upon to make a total investment of S10,30 Each of the Dodge Brothers hal put in s250O, Strelow recalls, but were later induced to add another S25O0 each. The others, Couzens included. presented notes for their stock or most of it. Gray having most money in the company, was made president. Ford vice president, Malcolmson treasurer. and John Dodge and Horace Rackham were added as directors. In a year the notes were paid IT.? by the dividends the stockholders received-1OO per cent on their in. vestment,
 The next year we got 800 per cent on our original investment, says Strelow. but after that the company paid ncthing."
 Ford and Others Break That was when the break came. In March. 1906. dissension arose between Ford and Malcolmson.
 They had s450.O0O which they could have paid out in dividends that year." says Strelow. But Ford and Couzens took another factory on Mack avenue and started build ing another machine with the money"
 There was the difference. One group wanted dividends. The Ford group wanted to turn the money back into the business.
 As result of this dissension Ford bought MalColmson's share in the company for s175,o00. All tha: it had cost Malcolmson originally, according to Strelow, was $500!
 'I was close friend of Malcolm. son, Gray was an uncle. Fry cou- sin, so we sided with him and sold , out, too.
 SclS to COuzenS
 'The Canadian company had been organized in 1905, and the Ford Motor Company of America held 51 per cent of it's stock. My share was SIS shares. When Couzens bought my Ford stock, I handed him my Canadian shares also-for nothing.
 Now that Canadian stock is worth fortune!" What his original Ford stock i., worth today, Strelow wouldn't dare to estimate. At any rate, this man who might have been millionaire, i whose name might have been known as well as those of Ford and Cou- zens--this wrinkied and rheumatic and kindly old man now sits on his front porch and merely contem- plates the day of his great oppor- tlfnity.
 Strclow's 5000 investment in three years brought him S45,O00- a comfortable profit But, turned back into his own business, it grad ., ually dwindled by ill luck until to-, day nothing is left of this and his | original S100.O00 fortune. l Regrets? He throws up his hands. wearily.
 What shall think of it? l have no regrets. 1 make the best of il. I have no grievance against any enc. just make the best of it." he | repeats.

Vegetables
Real Value
Appreciated

1t is amazing what our newer
knowledge of nutrition has accom-
plished in the last feN years in
popularizing fresh vegetables. Any
adult. looking back. will smile to
remember the small part they
played on the family dinner table
in her mothers home. compared
with the part they play in her
menus today.
Many of them commonly served
today. such as spinach, caulif1oWer,
lettuce, and even carrots, we're prac-
tically unheard of then. Just the
other day 1 heard a woman say that
she well could remember the first
time she had eaten carrots.
She had eaten them at a friends
home out of politeness, and to her
surprise had discovered that they
actually we're good.
Perhaps that hostess vas one OF
the younger generation who had
some knowledge of the proper prep
aration of vegetables, which not
only renders them valuable from a
nutritional standpoint, but really
delicious as we'll. The old-fash-
toned way of cooking vegetables no
more resembles the new way than
the couture resembles the bob!
Seemingly they were regarded as
q, menace to health, rather than an
aid, else one can not understand
Why or grandmothers thought it
necessary to cook them to death
before placing them on the table.
Nowadays We know the value Of
eating them raw. and those which
do demand cooking are cooked for
so short a time that they have a
great deal of life left when they
arrive at the table.

Bananas to be at their best Should

They really are ripe at this time,
and are not only better favored,
but easier of digestion.
If your family is fond of them,
however, it is difficult to keep any
large supply on hand after they
reach this stage. Invariably some
get too ripe. They can not, ordinar-
lily, be placed in the refrigerator,
for they are liable to flavor the
other foods. The solution is to keep
them outside the refrigerator un-
til they are ripened to the correct
stage, then place them in a tin box
which has tight fitting cover. This
box may be put into the refrigera-
tor.
