PROBLEMS AH E AWAITING BODY Many World Topics in Readiness for League of Nations Council. SHRINERS STILL WORKING FOR THE CRIPPLED YOUTH Service Without ' Waste .gB Folks do not buy a dozen kilowatt hours of electricity and then have to throw part of them away because they are wilted or old. There arc no leftover or stale portions to electric service. It is delivered fresh from the producer in fact instantaneously. An accurate measuring instrument, more 'accurate than a good watch, located right in your home or place of business, weighs out exactly what you want and no more. No need to order-electric service and then wait hours for its delivery with Ihc possibility of not getting what you or dered. Just snap the switch and take the exact amount that you need. A fraction of a cent's worth or unlimited quantity. Waste and wear attach to almost everything entering into our daily lives with the exception of public 'utility service. That is why such service takes so small a part of our living expense. As compared with other essentials, the nominal cost of electric service is out of proportion to its real value. - 1 v Eastern Oregon Light & Power Company "Always At Your Service" ST. l.OUIS (AP) Another "Temple of Itables Smiles," the fifth in the chain of Shrlners' hos pilitls for crippled children ulti mately to stretch from coast- to const, will be dedicated hero to morrow with an Imposing parade of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, including bauds and uniformed patrols from a huudred temples throughout the. country.

Easy to Tune the HE ACOCK Radiophone It is the easiest radio to . tune on the market to day. A slight turn of the dial and tlw result is startling. Perhaps tho second sketch in this advertisement might seem overdrawn but op erators , of one of our radio sets have heard stations as far away as Ha vana, Cuba. The Ileacock Radiophone is as near perfection as they can bo made at the present time. 0. M. Ileacock, who has over IB years experimental ex perience, personally supervises their construction and many features that make it so perfect, are his own design. You must hear one to appreciate its valuo. Call us for a demonstration today. We aleo handle other utandard makes of radio. Prices range from $30 to $300.'
