A large cookie was the prize awarded
the winner of this game, while smaller
cookies were given as "booble" prizes
to the other players.
Color color was the name of the next
game played. The child making the
lowest score in the first game was
allowed to start the next. He asked
all the other players to hide their
eyes so that he could look around and
choose the colors of some object they
could all see without moving from
their seats.
Green and gold" he announced
promptly.
They all looked and looked but it
was several minutes before Sue noticed
the gold ring with the green stone
that mother was wearing. 1t was then
Sues turn to choose the colors of the
next object to be guessed. AS honors

progressed in this manner, each one
putting in, according to alphabetical
order, the oldest things OF which
they could think, and remembering
and repeating also, each time, every
thing that had gone into the trunk
before.
After this game, mother handed
each one an apple and before they
ate them, each child guessed how
many seeds there would be in his
at the end each checked the whole
number of seeds found in his apple
with the number he had guessed
AS the journey ended, all agreed it

The best natural sources of dextrose
are fruits such as grapes and oranges,
corn and corn syrup, honey, and most
vegetables. Dextrose Is, In fact. also
known as corn sugar or grape sugar.
Pure crystalline dextrose is now
made chiefly from American corn. It
resembles ordinary cane sugar (sucrose)
in appearance, but Is Slightly less

to cloy the appetite.
The pure dextrose Is widely used to-

foods. 1t Is commonly employed in
making good bread. and Is a usual in

goes into candy. preserves, canned
fruits, fruit juices. carbonated bever-

The advantages Of dextrose In the
diet are its easy digestibility and COM
paratively rapid absorption. It provides
q quick, economical, and palatable

Dividend Payment
Denied Associated
Gas & Electric Corp.
S. E. G. Also Refuses
Permission to Pay
$467 900 Interest
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Securities Commission denied
permission to the Associated Gas IL
Electric Corp. today to pay dividends
on its capital stock.
1t also refused permission to pay
s467 900 interest on 81 ,805, 100 note
held by the corporations parent. Al
sociated Gas & Electric Co., which
owns the capital stock.
The corporation applied for per-
mission to pay the dividends and the
interest on December IL and a COM
mission hearing followed.
The note is per cent cumulative
income obligation due in 1880.
Several Reasons" Cited.
The commission said that for
several reasons" it had found that
payment OF dividends by A. G. E.
Corp. will impair the financial in
tegrity of that corporation"
Viewing all relevant facts in the
instant case," the S. E. C. said, I'VE
conclude that the proposed dividend
is designed to benefit A. G. E. Co.
without regard to the possible effect
upon A. G. E. Corp. To pay divi-
dends, while litigation is pending
which might so dry up It's own
sources OF income as to impair its
1 ability to meet the interest on it's
own obligations, would tend to i'm
pair the financial integrity of A. G.
E. Corp"
The opinion said that the COM
missioners found that the 'protec-
tion of the financial integrity of A.
G. E. Corp. now demands that its
resources shall not be dissipated by
dividends until an assured method
OF meeting the coming maturity is
| found"
This was reference to oblga-
tions maturing on March IS.
Subsidiaries Questioned.
Our conclusion may be rested on
still another ground the commits
sioners declared Many of the sub
sidiaries of the system are in none
too good a cash position. In addi-
ton, the financial officers of A. G. E.
WI -. oAAl1IICo Ol1 VIC lCCOlU t1ldt
some subsidiaries might effect sub
stantial interest savings by refinanc-
ing if they could obtain sufficient
equity money.
"A. G. E. Corp. has not supplied
funds to its subsidiaries since around
1882 Except to a limited extent by
serving as conduit from one sub
sidiary to another. One of the de-
sirable functions of a holding COM
pany is to supply such funds where
not otherwise readily available and
to preserve the financial integrity
OF companies in the holding COM
pany system, it must retain the
Wherewithal to supply them.
Since A. G. E. Corps cash posi-
ton now admittedly precludes it
from furnishing such funds to its
subsidiaries its cash resources should
be preserved"
