Why Wait To
Electrify?
Countless jobs done in the past by hand-power
can be done today by small electric motors, both
better and cheaper.
Carpenters now havc electric saws and sanding
machines shoes arc repaired by electric machinciy,
cleaning is-done by electric machines electricity
runs adding and billing machines drinks arc
mixed, coffee is ground, air is compressed, printing
is done, taffy is pulled, moving pictures arc run,
grindstones are operated and hundreds of small
tasks arc done today with small motor power.
Thirteen hundred and fifty electrical horsepower
is available in Eastern Oregon for any application
of motor power, at rates upon which it is profitable
to operate.
Perhaps there is work which you arc doing by
hand or some other power, which could be done bet
ter and with less cost by electric power.
We will be glad to work with you on your jiowcr
problems.

New Equipment,
Better Cleaning
Lower Prices
ANNOUNCEMENT!
We wish to announce to the public that we
have placed an order for the most modern and
up-to-date equipment for our Dry Cleaning
department. This new system will enable us
to turn out even better work than in the past,
and at a lowered cost.
DESCRIPTION:
Our new system is known as The Clover Clarify
ing iintl Continuous Flow; in other woirls there is a
continuous flow of clarified and filtered cleaning;
fluid passing through tho garments duiingtho en
tire clciining period. As the dirty fluid leaves tho
machine it passes through the clarifier and filter
and returns to the cleaning machine. This process
is continued until the cleaning fluid coming from tho
machine shows clear and white in the sight glass in
stalled for that pui-poso.
IJesides being an improved cleaning system, this
clarifying and filter system does much to remove the
objectionable gasoline odor so common with inferior
equipment. ...
BETTER WORK:
With this added equipment we believe we will be
, able to turn out better work turn il out in shorter
' time, and with considerable less expense. Ilecause
of this last fact we now announce
LOWER PRICES:
While this equipment will not be installed for a
few weeks, we arc going to begin now to give our
customers some of the saving we anticipate making.
' . Heginning Monday, November 2nd, Men's
Suits will lie cleaned and pressed for t
POLICY:
It has always been, and will continue to be (im
policy to turn out the highest quality of work nt the
lowest possible price consistent with the cost of op
eration. :-'..
