Heart to Heart Talks.

DEDICATION Or A HOME. A world of care shut out, A world of love within. Not long ago Mr. and Mrs. Charles N. Page of Des Moines, la., formally dedicated their new home. And why not? Churches are formally dedicated to their uses and temples of learning and of justice and of charity and of pleasure. Why not dedicate the holiest of all the home? The home is more needful and more precious than any stately place where men and women congregate on whatever mission. Hearthstone and fireside are greater than pew and pulpit; forum and foyer. Take up the good old book of Deuteronomy. There you will learn that a man was excused from war if he had builded a house that was not yet dedicated. The home was first. In the olden days a borne meant much. It was to be the abode of many generations. It was built to stand. It passed from father to son. Nowadays we build houses only to tear them down after a few years or 6ell them. Many of us are like birds of passage. We make our nests first here and then there. We are in too big a hurry to dedicate them. Even the old customs of an evening's "house warming" have passed away. Especially is this true in the middle west This Des Moines dedication was notable. A dedicatory hymn, written for the occasion was sung, and the minister offered a dedicatory prayer. The two boys of the family then lighted. the fire on the hearth, and the two girls lighted the evening lamps. Then the fonr-year-old brought "papa's slippers." Father and mother read alternate verses of the poem "A Foretaste of Heaven." That was all save the remarks of a few neighbors and congratulations. The four walls of this home, thus set apart for holy uses, will house the real affection that dwells within all the better for this distinction. Its every precinct will be hallowed fcf this joyous and loving consecration. A home that is built upon the foundation of faith and hope and love, where dwells light and purity and truth, -where the voices of happy children are heard and pattering feet, is heaven in miniature. Let us have more home dedications.

UndeWalt The Poet Philosopher

THE BEGGAR. He had a little organ there, the which I watched him grind; and oft he cried, as In despair, "Please help me I am blind!" I muttered, as his music rose: "He plays In frightful luck!" And then I went down in my clothes and gave him half a buck. A friend came rushing up just then, and said: "You make me ache! you are the easiest of men that beggar is a fake! The fraud haa money salted down more than you'll ever earn; he owns a buslnes. block In town, and he haa farms to burn." I answered: "Though the beggar own a bankroll large and fat, I don't regret the half a bone I threw Into his hat. I see a man who looks as though the world had used him badit seta my J.ded heart aglow to flive him half a scad. And though that beggar man may be the wont old fraud about, that makes no sort of odds to me; that Isn't my lookout. I'll stake Tom, Harry, Dick or Jack, whene'er he comes my way; my conscience pats me on the back, and says that I'm O. K. But If a busted pilgrim came to work me, In distress, and I Inquired his age and name, his pastor's street address, and asked him to see the documents to prove he told no lies before I looened up ten cents, my conscience would arise and prod me till 1 couldn't sleep, or eat a grown man's meal: and so the beggar man may keep that section of a wheel.'

Investigate this Extraordinary Opportunity for Indiana Investors a Preferred Stock Issue by the Dodge Manufacturing Company of Mishawaka

IS

of

7 TIGH-PRICED securities that yield only two. to four V cent annual dividends subject to taxation are a luxury. Too dear a luxury in these times. Your capital should, of necessity, earn more money, f Invest your surplus laree or small in this preferred stock issue of the Dodge Manufacturing Company. Your money will thus earn six per cent per annum. The Absolute Certainty Most men today will understand that the name of the Dodg Company guarantees the absolute certainty of the investment We know of no better opportunity for Indiana investors. We know of no better security. The company manufactures everything for the mechanical transmission of power. The capital stock is 21,000,000. The surplus and reserves total 51,167,852.

The preferred stock issue authorized 51,500,000. The shares are 5100 each. Ten thousand shares, or 51,000,000 worth

stock", are now to be sold. Undoubtedly the issue will be far over-subscribed. This will mean that preferred shares will command a premium. No Taxes No Liability MHia ' ""SB-aaWBSaliaBaTl sbbbbbMbhhMbbb Purchase of shares in this issue will secure you an assured income. Upon your income there can be no taxes under the laws of the State of Indiana. Nor can you incur any liability in the Company's affairs. This is guaranteed under the iron-bound terms of the stock contract filed

with the Secretary of State of Indiana. Holders of the common stock assume

liability pay all the taxes. Holders of the pre

ferred stock have no liability, pay no taxes yet draw 6 dividends. No dividends, under the contract, can be paid on common stock until the preferred stock dividends have been paid in full. Nor can any payment ever be made on common stock principal until the preferred stock has been fully liquidated. Payments of 6 dividends on the preferred stock begin from the date of the certificates. They arc semi-annual, payable January 1st and July 1st. The stock is not listed there is no element of speculation. There can be no risk. The Dodge Growth The growth of this great industry makes one of the most interesting chapters of the Nation's business history. From a cradle in an old frame mill 31 years ago, the Dodge Company has expanded to cover about nineteen acres of floor space today. It cmploys more than 1200 operatives. The real estate and plant are worth nearly a million and a half dollars.

The company never has had an unprofitable

all

f year. Year by year the business has grown more profitable. Last year was the greatest year of all partly due to the general adoption of the Dodge Line by mill and factory partly to a national educational advertising campaign. virP15 lcmand for the Dodge Line is permanent. Whatf the road-bed is to the railway, Dodge Transmission appliances are to the manufacturer. The Company's present earning power is such that it can pay a 10 dividend on its capital stock after providing for interest on the preferred stock and making proper allowance for depreciation and for addition to the surplus account. The company transacts more than 52,000,000 annual business. Undoubtedly factory enlargments will enable it to reach the three million dollar mark. The present preferred stock issue is another step 1n the growth," the increased prosperity of the business. Greater working capital and further extensions and improvements to the plant will result. These are needed in meeting the overwhelming demand for the Dodge Line. Thus you can see what strength stands behind this investment Net Assets $2 For $1 This is a unique feature. According to the conditions of the stock contract, the net assets with Bills and Accounts Payable deducted shall always be in excess of double the amount of outstanding preferred stock. -Net assets of two dollars for one must be on hand at all times. We know of no more secure protection ever being given. And every dollar of assets is a LIVE dollar. No dead material. No useless machinery. All earning profits. Even the Good Will of the Dodge Company is not included in the statement of assets. Yet the Good Will, according to the usual way of computation, according to accepted financial practice, is worth millions of dollars. We have so much faith in this investment that we have given it our public and unqualified approval. We want every Indianian with a few idle hundred dollars or tens of thousands at command to investigate. Get the Complete Facts SalaaBBBBBsJ 'VaaaSsssBal THSaiaBBaiaaBSBaMBSaVSBBBBBS ajaBBSBaaajBaSW A complete statement has been prepared, telling all the facts about this issue.
