Hats
Spring is a wonderfully flattering background for any new fashion
fancy and when Parisian models reveal such clever hat fancies as
those we have assembled here, small wonder that a hat will be your
first Spring purchase. Tiny upturned brims, a wide use of ribbon,
lovely new failles are' just a few interesting new notes. We advise you
to come in early to make your selection. ..

Prucliciilly all the money the railroads take in is
immediately put back into circulation. Kailroiids do
n large volume of business on a narrow margin of
net income. Out of every dollar earned from opera
tion by the railroads of the United States, there
was absoiled in 1922, by

Out of this 13.7 cents-of. net operating income, 12.2
cents went for interest on bonds and other fixed
Charges, leaving 1.5 cents for stockholders. Adding
6.9 cents of income from outside sources, net cor
porate income was 8.4 cents, of which 4.9 cents was
paid in dividends, leaving 3.5 cents available for
appropriations and surplus. ,
Gross earnings of the railroads in 1922 were
$1,567,000,000- more than in 1917. This $1,567,000,
000 and more too, was immediately paid out again,
as follows:

The stockholders and bondholders of the railroads
got none of the increase.
It is significant that good times are always coinci
dent wilh heavy buying on the part of the railroads
ami that bad times are periods of light railway pur
chases. The Union Tacific System is one of the most im
portant enterprises west of the Missouri River. Its
li early 50,000 employes, and their families, constitute
a buying power which is the main reliance of many
businesses. The purchases of the Union Pacific Sys
tem from firms located on the System, or which have
offices on our lines, aggregate millions of dollars each
month.
The railways are planning to spend hundreds of
millions of new money during 1924 to better serve
the public.
