Lignite, or "wood-coal," is geologically half way between turflike peat and smudgy bituminous coal. It is hard, looks like dirty brown slate, burns without smoke, is clean to handle. Mined in the U. S. in North and South Dakota and Texas, it is useful in domestic furnaces, or as pulverized fuel in manufacturing plants...

He is a director of the Bank of Toronto and in a chain of Canadian enterprises allied with his brother's interests...
...Later, Mr. Palmer's able son, Carleton H. Palmer, was installed at an early age and became, after the war and his father's death, president of the company. It was under his youthful stimulus that the business began advertising, expanding. Still young (38 years), clean-shaven (Squibb's shaving cream), smiling through white teeth (Squibb's tooth paste), healthy (Squibb specifics and much horse backing at Fairfield, Conn., where he is a master-of-hounds and keeps an airplane), President Palmer's policy has been to market standard and recognized medicines under their...
