A Little Talk
About Dividends
OME people think there's a lot of money
in the telephone business. Those people
havo never operated a telephone com-pany.
There are few business enterprises in which
the margin of profit 1ms been as small as in the
telephone industry. No one who has investi
gated actual conditions has evor accused us of
earning exorbitant profits. We've had hard
enough time earning any at all.
Of late the price of telophono equipment has
been increasing, and there has been a feeling in
some localities that we should pay higher
wages or allow shorter working hours.
These conditions havo made it a serious prob
lem for this company to got enough money at
the present rates to pay expenses and earn suf
iicient interest on our present investment to in
vite the necessary capital for needed extensions
and improvements.

of givers long since turned to dust.
They are the sort of reminders of a
gentler but less fastidious generation
that we do not like to part with ex
