DEBEN TURES

COMPANY REALTY 8% INTEREST VS 6% INTEREST MEANS ONE THIRD MORE INCOME

The following extracts uro taken from theo Chairman's statement at the last annual Shareholders' Mcoting, February 29th, 1932.

"We feel that the Debenture holder from an investment stand- point, is just as much an interested partner of the Company as the Common Shareholder and is entitled to his just return on his invest- ment, and by the figures given on the two years' working, I think we have amply proven that we were right that our Debenture holders receive eight per cent. interest instead of six per cent."

"The most successful concerns of the future will be those who recognize this principle-that even banks will allocate to depositors, a part of profits earned on their money over and above current rates of interests. As our balance sheets show quito plainly, the proceeds from the sale of our debentures is not used for the purchase of Real Estate, as we are not speculators, but for investment in first class mortgages, amply secured not only by the value of the property pledged as security, but as a further security, the debentures constitute a first claim on the total assets of the Company. An analysis of the figures involved shows that every debenture has behind it assets equal to three times its value.'

"If after careful consideration of actual facts and figures you are receiving less than 8% upon your investments and/or savings, you are not using judgment but following old customs, believing 5% and 5% are current rates."

From the above it will be seen that our 8% Debentures are secured by first mortgages on 55.4% of value and backed up with $5,000,000 capital.

The natural laws of economics require an investor to secure the best return especially upon savings-trust funds consistent with safety.

Child stars don't remain child stars all their lives. They grow up. And, generally, they disappear into ob scurity. Not so, however, with Ben Alexander, child ator of D. W.

be found in an important role in "The Vanishing Frontier," coming to the King's Theatre on Thursday next, starring Johnny Mack Brown, and featuring Evelyn Knapp, Zau Pitts, Raymond Hatton and J. Farrell Mac Donald.

In "The Vanishing Frontier," Alexander in cast as the brother of Evelyn Kanpp. She, as the daughter of a general in charge of the military Kovernment of Old California, is in love with Johnny Black Brown, an out- law fighting against her father.

"Lady and Gent."

There are four types of lovers among American men. That you have on the authority of blonde young Wynne Gibson, featured with Georgo Bancroft in "Lady and Gent." a Para- mount picture which is showing at the King's Theatre. First there is the tender lover. He is a virtual slave to the woman he adores. Ho novor. even for an instant, unkind or harsh. He tries to anticipato her every wish, and fulfill it before she can express it. Second, there is the noble lover. Ho is the kind who is willing to give up Inmily ties, a chance to make good in his father's brokerage office, or any- thing else, to win the girl he loves. Then there is the romantic lover. Ho must have a moon, sighing pine boughs, and soft music in the dis- tance to pat him across. This typo usually has to digest a couple of volumes of James Branch Cabel be- fore a date. And last, but certainly not least, there is the civilized cave- mine the masterful lover. Most of to day's popular screen lovers are of this type-Meurice Chevalier, George Ban- croft, Clark Gable, John Barrymor Frederick March and Ronald

Miss Gibson, in "Lady and Gent," de- monstrates her own liking for the layt

cirle type by sticking with George Bancroft.

"I'm all right. How is Dad?" She apoke rapidly.

"He's running around like a wild man. We'd better get right in be fore he burns down the camp." Dud- ley was beginning to regain his composure now that he saw she was not harmed.

"Hua he been riding?" Dona asked contritely.

"All over the mountain! You'll never know how glad I am to see I could no more handle him you.

Dudley mopped his face with a silk handkerchief as he jolted along at her side.

"Has Swergin been in with any' news?" Dona asked.

"We haven't had a word about you. This is the first news." Dud- ley shouted to make her hear above the rattle of the horses' flying hoofs. Dona's lips pulled tight and her eyes flashed. She would have some- thing to say to the big timber boss when they met and she realized also that she would have some explain- ing to do on her own account. Her father might not be easily convinced when she told him of hor exneri- ence. Dona was sure there would be a scene when she explained the near lynching.
