LET'S SHE DECIDE If
James Taylor Hartman Passes Exam
ination; Then Plays "Fifteen" Ball
for Decision.
Superior, Wis., Feb. 1. Letting the
elusive ivories in a fifteen ball pool'feated the Roesch Alley team Tues
game decide his inclination to follow a
' military career, James Taylor Hart
man lost the game and immediately
enlisted in the United States marine
corps, emulating the hero of "Under
Two Flags," who was willing to let
the toss of a coin determine his alle
giance to either the French or their
enemy. -.
The young man passed an excellent
examination at the local recruiting
station, but could not make up his
mind to enlist before trying this orig
inal way of deciding once for all to
follow the fortunes of the "soldiers of
the sea."
Hartman, who takes an optimistic
view of life, despite his fatalistic be
liefs, left today for the marines train
ing station at Mare Island, Cal., fully
convinced that the gods of chance are
the wisest counsels.
Turning the knob even a trifle
rings a bell in a new lock for home
doors.
Watts Watt Talks No. 1
Our experience leads us to believe that a large number of our
customers do not know just what they are paying for when they
pay their monthly electric bills, outside of the fact that they switch
ed on the light, heat or power during the month as they needed it
Now there is no secret about it and you should know what you
are geting for your money, just as you know what you got when
you paid your grocery or meat bill, so in these advertisements we
are going to explain some of the "mysteries." In the meantime call
at our office and get a free copy of a book published by the Uni
versity of Oregon called "Elementary Primer of Electricity for
Light and Power Customers.'' You will be surprised and interested
in the information it gives in terms easily understood by everyone.
WATCH FOR THE NEXT WATTS WATT TALK
P. S. By the way, have you seen the very latest thing in the
electric line. It is a full size electrically driven sewing machine that
can be carried from room to room with ease. Price $37.00. Don't
sound possible docs it? But It's true. Come in and see it.
