! Stores At Glenmore Not To Be Rebuilt The two stores and a barber shop burned to the ground ut Glenmore Tuesday afternoon will not be rebuilt Is the belief of owners of the businesses. Walter Schandt, proprietor of the hardware store, and owner of the building states that It is not likely that he will rebuild. The other two buildings were both owned by J. W Stilgenbaurer, owner of the grocery store also, lie states that he will not try to replace the structures that burned. The loss of all three men, including Harlan Hunter, who had a barber shop in a small building between the grocery stortj and the Fltfrdwarn store, will approximate $11,004* according to careful estimates. The building belonging to Seh'aadt is valued at between SI7OO and S2OOO and the stock about $4,500 to $5,000. According to Mr.. Stilgenbaurer, his building and stock was valued at $3,500, which is considered a very conservative estimate 1 . He about $3,000 insurance, according to his statement. Hunter lost about $ 15<» with no insurance. “The fire seeins to have started from an explosion.” Mr. Stilgenbaurer stated. ”1 was at work in my store. I heard a little noise in the next building and the next thing 1 knew somebody yelled, ‘fire’.” This report of the origin was verified by several others. Nobody in Glenmore able to lift a pail of water was left out of the service of saving the property of others. Men. women and children, formed a circle from nearby pumps and a constant supply of water was furnished for protection of several buildings standing around the store. An idea of the wonderful activity in the motor car industry is shown by a report just received from the Auburn Automobile 1 Company of Auburn. Indiana, which states that during the three months of January. February and March. It has required an increase in the number of employees of 300 per cent. "We are making just as many cars as we can make right," said Mr. A. P. Kemp, president of the company "We could make more cars, but we couldn't make more cars worthy to bear the name. Auburn. We are increasing our production facilities as rapidly as we can consistent with the rigid maintanee of our standards of quality. The automobile industry is in a wonderful condition right now. and I am confident that this present prosperity will continue for a long time to come." Several Hear Ripley Speak (Continued From Page One.) portion of the countries of the world that have adopted electricty as their means of doing their work is also small. Even in this country only about 18 percent of the water power has been harnessed. Os Absorbing interest This lecture of Mr. Ripley is exceptionally well thought out. condensed, convincing. informational and—above all, absorbingly interesting. With it he has not only entertainment but increased the practical knowledge of audiences which have ranged from school children to capitalists. It is convincing, for example, to see the picture of the stacks of coins, the General Electric Company gets for, its products. Os every dollar of income, Mr. Ridley said, which the company received during 1918, 1919, 1920, the most prosperous years of the company, 40.6 cents went to buy supplies and I THE CRYSTAL I q Last Time Tonight S J Benefit for Rebeccas |i |g Pola Negri in s I “MAD LOVE” | B A Goldwyn B If Picture m I Added Attraction Pathe Comedy gh and News K H Children 10c B I Adults 25c H Watch for || I “The Christian” I

material.'and to meet depreciation 'charges and lorrcs, 41.7 cents went for wages und salaries paid to an average of 75.9f10 employes; 4.7 cents "Surplus" went into enlargements of plants, and tied up In inventories nnd were used as working capital. 5.3 cents went for taxes. 4 cents went for cash dividends to all stockholders, who then numbered 21,461; 2.6 cents went for transportation, telephone and telegraph chatgea, 1.2 cents went to pay interest on borrowed money. G. E. Thoroughly American The General Electric Company is an American institution. Mr. Ripley proved with his figures. On a graphic made of the Vnited States b<* indicated that the 40.000 stockholders live in all parts of the United States. Only 1.3 -percent of the stock Is owned abroad, compared with three percent foreign-owned before 1914. Os tlie present stockholders, more than half, he said, are women. The General Electric Company is not a concern of absentee management. On the diagram illustrating the framework of the organization, he pointed Out that seven of the high officials directly in charge of the work live in Schenectady. In conclusion he illustrated liow the General Electric Company, which centers in Schenectady, is a world institution, gathering its material from all quarters of the globe, from the brown men who climb the trees to gather the little insects that go to make the shellac, from the silk-wind-ing women of old Japan from the cotton field of the south, from the copper mines of Minnesota and the coal mines of and from an inconceivably large number of other sources assembling them in the various factories of the great concern transforming them into useful machines to lift the burden of labor from the shoulders of man. Then he showed how these machines are distributed to all parts of the world, how the faraway lands look to the company to be their customers and hew the company looks to faraway llnds for its customers. This company is the great clearing house at the crossroads of lines of traffic where converge the world’s contributions of material to be fashioned by the cunning artificer into innumerable devices. The company is in turn the central distributing point whence diverge the lines of business, making Schenectady in fact the Electrical capital of the world. appointment of administrator Notice Is hereby given, that the undersigned has been appointed Administrator of the estate of Jacob It.
