Perhaps you have noticed show windows
In the evening with their lights dimmed
or turned off completely. These merchants
are cooperating with the Government's
program to save coal, transportation,
manpower and other critical resources by
turning out lights wherever possible.
In many cases, stores with lighted show
windows are making worthwhile savings
of electricity in other ways—by reduced
Interior lighting, showcase lighting, etc.
YOU can help this program by saving
electricity in your own home, store or

rationed and there is no shortage in this
area, SAVE voluntarily wherever you

Stark P -T. A.
The founder's day program was
a big success. Mrs. Newstead
president, opened the meeting
with singing. Mr. Rossman led
the members in the Flag salute.'
Business was then carried on.
Mrs. Newstead explained why, j
some of the past presidents did:
not attend this meeting, to which
they had received a special printed
invitation. Following the roll call,
room count was taken. Mr. Ross
man's room had the largest at-
tendance of parents present. Vis-
itors were then asked to stand:
and receive a welcome from the;
members.
Mrs. Stokes, Mrs. Swarbrick,
Mrs. Crawford and Mrs. Kruger `
wexe asked to go to the front of
the room and receive a corsage
from the P. -T. A. The chairman)
of each committee was introduced.
Mrs. Newstead then turned the
program over to Mrs. Hembre;
who read an article in regard to
the origin of founders' day. Mrs.,
Waterman, teacher, also read part
of the origin. Mrs. Erwin, mem-
ber, read a piece on founding the
Stark P. -T. A. Then Mrs. Hembre
announced a candlelight program
which pertained to hope, courage,
ooperation, wisdom, diligence and
comradeship, which some of our
members participated in.
On the table beside our presi-
dent was a lovely big cake which
was baked by Mrs. Crawford and
decorated with "Founders' Day,
1926-1944"; a lovely bouquet of
cut flowers and our publicity
book.
At 10:00 we adjourned to the.
lunch room, where Mrs. Vern
Hanchett and her committee
served coffee and sandwiches.
We had a grand turnout and
everyone was in high spirits. Do.
try to attend our March -meeting,
to be held on the 28th at Stark

Business Soars,
Income Drops
Phone Company
Issues Statement
The Michigan Bell Telephone
company today keported that its
net income in 1943 fell nearly
$800,00.0 below the 193.9 pre-war
ievei despite a wartime increase
of 58 per cent in the dollar vol-
ume of its business which reached
an all-time high.
In the company's annual re-
port, President George M. Welch
cited net operating income of $9,-
884;000 compared with $10,674,-
000 in 1939—the last year of pre-
war activity.
Michigan Bell earnings repre-
sented a return of 4.1 per cent
on the company's plant invest-
ment against 5.6 per cent in 1939.
Pointing out that shortages of
materials have resulted in over-
loaded facilities and a heavy
backlog of service demands, Welch
emphasized that "as soon as ma-
terials and manpower are avail-
able, satisfactory margins of plant
must be restored. This will re-
quire an increase in capital in-
vestment with relation to the vol-
ume of business 'which will add
to the net revenue requirements
to cover the fixed charges of the
additional plant."
The company paid dividends
of $5.74 per share of $100 par
stock, 25 cents above the 1942
declaration. Operating taxes of
$13,858,000 were $2,408,000 above
those of 1942 and were the equiv-
alent of $12.83 per telephone.
Operating payrolls increased $5,-
322,000 to $27,965,000.
Despite the shortage of tele-
phone materials for civilian pur-
poses, the number of telephones
in service increased nearly 75,000
over 1942, reaching a new high
of more than 1,110,000. Local calls
averaged 5,600,000 a day and long
distance messages 123,000,0 daily,
the latter an increase of 75 per
cent over the pre-war volume.
The report cited savings of $1,-
310,000 a year to long distance
users through rate reductions and
changes in toll practices brought'
about in 1943.
Approximately 2,800 employes
were in military service during'
the year with three men in uni-
form for every five remaining on
the job, highest ratio of any Bell
system company. Wartime opera-
tions increased the percentage of
women employes to 72 per cert of
the total personnel compared with
a pre-war representation of 56 per
cent. More than 5,000 recruits
were brought into the business
during the year.
The report expressed apprecia-
tion to the public for its under-
standing and patience" in helping
the company "get the utmost from
the telephone plant."
Looking beyond the war, Presi-
dent Welch viewed the future
with confidence, but emphasized
that "investment funds will have
to be attracted to the telephone
business" to pay for any substan-
tial expansion program that may
lie ahead.
"Winning the war," he said, "is
the paramount objective today.
In everything necessary to that,
object, only the best is accept-,
able. In civilian life, the public',
accepts something less than the
