u. S. Steel Corporation
Shows Loss for Quarter

United States Steel corporation re-
ported loss of 81 ,292, Isl for the March
quarter, which was much less than some
students of finance had estimated.
Shipments for the period were at about
$500 of capacity, says Skillings' Min
ing Review. The corporation declared
the usual quarterly dividend of SITS
on the preferred stock.
The pay point of United States Steel
had been estimated of late to be be-
tween $50 and 500 of capacity, but
the showing in the initial quarter sug-
gests that it may be revised sharply
downward.
The corporations employees in the
first quarter numbered 211,883 COM
pared with 246,484 in the like quarter
in 1887. At the time of the quarterly
meeting last week the number of en-
ployes was 205,0OO, and business for
April was averaging slightly under the
March quarter average.

Newspaper Ads Superior
Says Standard Oil.

Standard Oil Company of Indiana
has increased from 1886 to 1,746 the
total number of newspapers carrying
its spring and summer advertising cam
paign for 1888, Wesley I. Num-, adj
vertising manager, announced today.
The Ely Miner and other daily and
weekly papers with total circulation
of 100000, as compared with H.
100000 last year, advertise the service,
gasoline and motor oil offered by more
than $4,000 dealers in Standard pro-
ducts in Is middlewest states.
Clean rest rooms are the feature of
the opening advertising in May, with
pictures and other Illustrations and
short copy recalling that since the
early days of motoring, service stations
where Standard Oil products are sold
have been famous for extra services.
Especially clean rest rooms!"
"Low-coSt-per-mile is the theme Of
the Standard special summer gasoline
advertising, beginning the last of May
and continuing the rest of the summer.
Pictures of popular forms of summer
recreation and Standard dealer stations
suggest driving by automobile and
where to buy gasoline, while short copy
points out the long mileage of Standard
Red Crown.
Trained down for endurance" fea-
lures the Iso-Vis motor oil advertising,
which shows boxers, oarsmen, swimmers
and other athletes who are "long- last
ing" the same as Iso-Vis.
Standard Oil has found that news
paper advertising is the best method of
reaching the public.

597 Accidents Are
Reported for March.

In March, SGT accidents involving 908
drivers and resulting in IS deaths were
reported to the accident recording unit
of the Minnesota Highway department.
Of the 35 fatalities, Is were pedes-
TRANS. Nine deaths were caused by
collisions between motor vehicles, six by
collisions between a motor vehicle and
a fixed object, three by non-collisions
and one each by collisions between a
motor vehicle and a railroad train and
a motor vehicle and electric trolley.
All but 16 of the 908 drivers involved
reported as having had more than five
years of driving experience. The re-
ports showed that CTS of the drivers had
not been drinking and II had been
drinking. The condition of the re-
mainder was not reported.
The hour from seven to eight P. M
was revealed as having been the most
dangerous in which to drive during
March. Saturday was the most danger
Gus day to drive. On straightaway
stretches occurred 494 of the accidents,
while only 80 happened on curves.

ROAD EYES"
Save Lives
Roads in Duluth Fog Area to
be Buttoned by the State
Highway Department.

After four years of use the road
eyes" installed in the center of paved
highways in Minnesota on curves, hills
and other danger locations have
definitely proved themselves to be real
life guards" according to w. F, Rosen-
valid, highway department traffic en-
gineer.
Because the legislature had created
no accident recording machinery prior
to the use of the safety buttons, Mr..
Rosenwald explained, no specific data
on highway accident locations are
available these years, but highway
ptrolmen in their reports all state that
since the installation of the sfety "eyes"
curve and hill collisions have decreased.
Also, the patrol reports declare, speed
at night has been decreased because
drivers show tndency to slow down
on catching the reflection from the
buttons. At all times the buttons cut
the inclination of drivers to drive on
the wrong side of the road, the patrol
men have observed.
At present safety button crews of 10
men each are again reinStalling the
"eyes." During the first two winters
the buttons were in use they were left
in the road all winter. Cost sheets of
the department, however, revealed that
this hampered snow removal and re-
suited in the destruction of many of
the buttons. At the same time snow
removal equipment was often damaged
by the "eyes" and in several instances
plows were "ditched." In the interest
of economy the department decided to
remove the buttons each fall and re-
place them each spring.
This year, as in 1887, there will be
$4,000 road eyes" installed. They will
be placed in danger stretches on all
roads with a surface permitting solid
anchorage In the Duluth fog area
the roads will be buttoned throughout,
not only on curves and hills.
When the safety "eyes" were first
laid down by the department on test
stretches they were placed as close
together as 30 feet. Experience taught,
however, that economy could be eff
fected without endangering their safety
efficiency by spotting the buttons at
intervals from 60 to 100 feet.
To reinStall the buttons this year will
cost approximately IA cents each. If
they had remained in during the winter
| it is estimated that $4,000 would have
been destroyed and thousands of an
chorages damaged.

AS near as can be aScertained these
acts are committed by the younger boys
who in a democratic manner do not
confine their tactics to the golf club
alone. Of late, operations have been
transferred to the new Community

The dedication address will be deliv-
cred by Oscar j. Larson, former con-

portance and is eagerly listened to
wherever and whenever he essays to

peared before civic clubs and always

RISH-MADE FILM
 TO BE SHOWN HERE
Killarney Background for Dawn Over Ireland";
 AnglO-Irish War

Killarney is the lovely background chosen for the first film from the Hibernia Film Studios for its pro- duction of Dawn Over Ireland" and the film itself is the first really satisfactory one that deals with Anglo-Irish war; it is Irish through out, a psychology, story, atmos- phere, not sentimentalised or warped Ireland-cum- Hollywood.
 It will be shown at the Strand theater, Thursday, Jan. 12. It was produced entirely by Irish hands and brains, over 250 went into the cast.
 A preview in the Capitol theater, Dublin some time ago gathered a mighty nesting of Republicans. The story shows finely the continuity of the fight for freedom, even in individual families and when it ended with The Fight Must Go On" the "" else house cheered both picture sentiments.
 The atmosphere of the Tan Ter TOT, the raids, ambushes, men in the hills, reprisals, the spirit and sympathy of the people-and the beauty of Killarney-produced a wonderful effesct of reality. It gives strange thrill to those of us who had lived through it-one of min gled pride and sadness.
 The cast of Dawn Over Ireland" includes Tom Cooper, Eileen Davis, Brian O'Sullivan, Donald O'Cah1ll, James Gleeson, Marion O'Connell, Herbert Martin, Johnny Mccarthy, and many others.
 This picture is for the benefit of St. Thomas church of Goshen.
