At 20 he was up to his neck ,in his father’s business. Soon it ‘became too small for him and -he began or- ganizing companies of his own. Those were trying days in German industry. Small industry was breath- ing its last and the trust era was coming in. That meant ruin for most small industries. To Stinnes it meant a | chance for conquest. 4 The World War came. Industry was shattered. But Stinnes moved on. He was the German govern- ment’s most powerful tool in exploit- ing seized Belgian industries. Seizes Opportunity Then came peace and revolution and more industrial troubles. But Stinnes seized upon the absence of a solid German government as an op- portunity for pushing his industrial conquests still further.

CENTS INTO. $6,000,000 IN 10 YEARS (By Roy Gibbons) Zion City, Ill., Dec. 5—Wilbur Glenn Voliva nas increased his fortune from 83 cents to $6,000,000 in 10 years. ‘He has just turned down a $100,000 a year job as a sales manager. And still he believes that the world is flat! fi Every one knows how Voliva, as su sor to Dr. John Alexander ‘Dowie, the first overseer of Zion City, has made his bailiwick the bluest of blue law towns. : ‘But few have heard of Voliva’s stu- pendous success as a financier and captain of industry. i Voliva rescued Zion City from the receiver's auction block after the death of Dowie. With his total as- sets 83 cents he negotiated a $1,000,- 000 loan, ‘ Voliva Owns City Today Violiva owns Zion City. Ev- erything is in his name, including its 23 industries, which’ last year did a total business of $3,156,051.24, Today Voliva’s properties are al- most free fnom debt, the city treasury is bulging with revenues, its indus- tries are running 24 hours a day and, it goes without saying, there is no ‘unemployment. Voliva’s 5000 followers give him all the credit. He i: , Was born on a farm in Newton, Ind., is the commun- ity’s religious as well as wordly lead- er, and yet takes no personal pride in his accomplishments. He has fixed -his own salary at $250 a month and refuses to consider more. Talents God-Given r “God gave me certain talents,’ says Voliva, “The peculiar faculty for making money is mine by hert- .tage. + © “MLused, this gift.is more than a curse. It is only well employed when serving others and guided by relig ion.” In his role of overseer, Voliva has more duties and positions than a vau- deville quick change. artist. “Primarily there is but one road to success, and that road lies along the highway of eternal and constant am- bition,” Voliva explains. “But every man, to start with, pro- viding he has an abiding faith in God, his fellowmen and religion, has a book value of $250,000. “At least I would value a man’s re- ligion on a business basis as being worth $250,000. “For in religioon reposes. character, ‘perseverance and help against adver- sities.

D., Dec. 5.—Consider- able interest was evidenced in the case of Versippi school district versus Ray & Clark which was taken up in the Stark county district court. In this case the plaintiffs sued the defendants fer $2,115 which it alleged was due to it under the ‘terms of a contract made with the defendants, It appears that in 1917 the plaintiffs con- tracted with the local firm for the in- stallation of a heating plant in the consolidated school for $722. In making the contrac bers of the-school board: Ray & Clark agreed that if the plant did not prove satisfactory the defend- ants would pay for the installation of a new system. The board alleged that the plant was decided unsatisfactory and that after many attempts on the part of the. defendants to make it work, a new plant was ordered through a Halliday firm. Consequent- ly suit was brought to recover the amount paid for the new plant. The defendants claimed that no such agreement had been entered into and that had the building been prop- erly constructed, their plant would have proven satisfactory. After occupying the greater part of two days the case went to the jury Thursday afternoon-and'a verdict was rendered in favor of the defendants. COAL COMPANY '_. BUYS ENGINE Wilton, N.

D., Dec. 5.—People of Linton and community have suffered much in years gone by because of bad mail and train service. ‘The Mil- waukee has taken off its passenger train entirely, and Linton’s only ser- vice to Aberdeen is a daily mixed train affair, The hours of service are also changed. The Milwaukee. mixed train, under the new schedule, leaves Linton at 7 o'clock in the morning. It gets to Linton at its own sweet will in the afternoon. On the other hand, the .P. gets into Linton any old time after six o'clock. The result is com- plete demoralization in postal service. Mail from the north must be sorted late at night in order to be forwarded on the Milwaukee's seven o'clock train. The post office force must be at work about 6. a. m. in order to make the south train, and they can’t bossibly finish their work before 8 the night before. For a long time it has taken Linton people two days to make a train trip to’Bismarck. The N. P. just misses the morning train at McKenzie. Now, one must leave Lin- ton at 7 a. m. in order to reach Aber- deen that night.

PRICE OF POSSESSION” The prowess she gained while a “stunt” actress for the movies Years 0 stood ‘Ethel Clayton, Paramount star, in good stead for the spectacu- lar jump she had to make while film- ing “The Price of Possession,” her latest Paramount feature which will ,be shown at the Bismarck“Theater to- night. / One of the stirring scenes in the ‘picture shows Miss Clayton jumping trom the second story of a seaside jcastle into the sea. Rockcliffe Fel- lowes, playing the leading male role in the picture, leaps after Miss Clay- ton and rescues her from drowning. Both Miss Clayton and Mr. Fellowes DR. M. CAREY THOMAS When Miss Clayton first started her picture work she used to do spectac- ular stunts such as jumping off high cliffs, being washed upon the rocks of rugged’ sea shores; rescued from burning buildings and other hair- raising stunts. Persons who do these things for the movies are designated in studio parlance as “stunt” ac- tresses. Although Miss Clayton is now a Star, she has not forgotten the days ofeher more strenuous work for the screen. The supporting company is excellent.
