THE WONDERFUL FORD
' Henry Ford is one of the most remarkable men that
ever lived. He bought the Lincoln Automobile. Com
pany 81 bankrupt sale for 88,0&0,000 and said it was
too cheap, and the stockholders should be reimbursed,
so he paid $4,000,000 additional, making a total of
912,000,000 the property cost him.
The wires had scarcely finished telling of this
front page marvel before he springs another wonder
to make the world gape. This time he buys 120,000
acres of Kentucky coal lands and he gives out with
announcement of the purchase that he.intends to
thlye the country’s coal problem - ’ “by using every
• pir-'n of eon I .twice.”
IK- The tract of land which Mr. Ford purchased has
■reserve' coal supply of 600,000,000 tons. Pretty
big lot of coal, we should say. But the property add
ed to coal lands previously purchased brings the
total up to 165,000 acres. The latest purchase cost
him between three and four million dollars. Is the
K ’ ”c becoming alarmed about Mr. Ford’s monopol-
the coal lands? Not a bit of it. If he starts any
putting up of the price of coal and oppressing the
poor, it will be a new thing for him.
i But Mr. Ford is asking the users’of His coal to .in
stall furnaces that will remove only the gas, leaving-
a fuel unimpaired for domestic purposes. The coal,
after tliis process, would lxj sold to heat the homes
of hundreds of thousands of workers throughout the
countrk The fuel remaining after the gas had been
taken off would be even more valuable for. home
heating purposes than it was before, according to
what Ije says. Great is Henry Ford!
RADIO NIGHTHAWK
The Kansas City Nighthawk now have 35,000 mem
bers among the radio - fans all over the United States
and Canada. The Nighthawks broadcast a radio coa-
cort frbm Kansas City after midnight.; Between jazz
numbers of the Coon-Sanders orchestra, the announc
er reads telegrams from out-of-town radio bugs who
e “listening in.” The reading of these telegrams

they pass that period of experience
which brings to them the confi

Is one told of a young lawyer. He
deserved success and, no doubt, he
did succeed, but he was not. im-
munc to the trials and crosses as
experienced by the elder members
of tne profession in their begin
ning days:
A young lawyer was asked tc
defend a tramp who was accused
of stealing a watch.
The lawyer pleaded with all the
ardor at hi* command,' drawing r
pathetic picture with such :on
vincing energy that aLthe close of
the argument the cgprt was in
tears ,and even the tramp wept.
The jury deliberated and found
tho prisoner “-not guilty.”
i Then the tramp drew himself
up, tears streaming down his face

. '“Sir, I have never heard such

"here’s the watch; take it and wel-
