1 We have a hobby.
It concerns every man, woman and
child In town.
Our hobby la but wait a moment
Suppose you are sick, or on of
your family Is sick. Tou consult the
best physician you know of and he
fives you a prescription.
Ton have a right to take that pre
scription to any druggist, no matter
whose name Is printed on It Tou
have the same right to select your
druggist that you do to select your
doctor.
Particular people bring their pre
scriptions to ns, because our hobby Is
prescription work.
We take the same sort of pride In
compounding every prescription the
Tery best way that an artist takes In
tainting the very best picture he
can; the same that the conscientious
doctor takes In bringing his patients
back to health.
Wt know drops: we know where
to buy the best TVe get that kind.
Appearances are deceptive. Two
phonograph records look exactly
alike, but the phonograph gets a $1.-

Our hobby leads us to study each
prescription to make It give the right
results. There is no rule of thumb.
no guessing simply, accurate, sclen
tiflc work done by men who know
and love their profession. If there la
any surer way than this we can't Im
agine what it is- And besides
Any physician who knows us will
tell you "we do things right" The
best way for you to know ia for you
to bring your next prescription here
where such work la not regarded as
drudgery, or a necessary evil, or as
a good chance to g t a big price for
something but where it is a "hobby"
where it is looked upon aa thj most
important service we can render to
our fellow-man.
The price! We haven't said any
thing about the price. That won't
bother you for a moment We want
all the prescription trade we can get
It would be foolish for us to charge
too much. We can afford to charge a
little too little, for the sake of build
ing up a branch of our business in
which we are very keenly interested.
When you have a prescription, re
member our hobby. Remember, too,
that we will call for your prescription
and . deliver the medicine phone ua

Pendleton Is once more included In
a general merger of electric liRht and
power plants, according; to an an
nouncement made in Portland, Sat
urday afternoon. The changes have
been coming so rapidly during the
past few months that it is difficult
for the local consumer to even give
the name of the company from. which
he Is getting electricity for either
light or power and as for naming the
owner or the interests back of the
concern, that Is out of the question.
The name of the parent corpor
ation which has just now been form
ed is the Pacific Power & Light com
pany and with its formation there
comes Into being one of the most ex
tensive public service corporations in
the northwest. The capital Is $7,.
500,000 and the concern is closely af
filiated with the General Electric
company and the Electric Bond &
Share company.
The work of organization was done
by the American Power & Light com
pany, of New York, which already
owns the Portland Gas & Coke com
pany. P. G. Sykes and S. Z. Mitchell
former Portland residents, are respec
tively president and chairman o the
board of directors and Guy W. Tal
bot, of Portland, Is vice-president of
the American Power & Light com
pany. The officers of the Pacific
company have not yet been announc
ed. The new concern plans a system of
power development in the Pacific
Northwest and will cover "the Colum
bia, Yakima and Walla Walla valleys
with Its transmission lines and dis
tributing system.
Dozen Plants Controlled.
More than a dozen large gas. elec
tric light and power plants already
have come under the control of the
new company. The properties includ
ed are:
Astoria Gas plant, electric plant
and street railway.
Pendleton Gas plant and electric
plant.
Adams Electric plant.
Walla Walla Gas plant, electric
plant, street railway and lnterurban
line to Milton and Freewater.
Lewlston Gas plant.
Pasco Water works and electric
plant.
Kennewlck Water works and elec
tric plant.
Sunnyside Electric plant.
Mabton Electric plant.
Wapato Electric plant.
North Yakima Gas plant, electric
plant and water works.
The company will own steam gen
erating plants at Astoria, Walla Walla
and Kennewlck. a waterpower plant
on the Walla Walla river, and com
bined steam and waterpower plants
at North Yakima and on the Natches
river, ten miles above North Yakima.
Electric Pumping Plant.
It has about 150 miles of high tension-transmission
system extending
from North Yakima to Pasco and
from Walla Walla to Pendleton. Cin
struction is' being rushed on a 68.-000-volt
line. 45 miles long, between
Pasco and Walla Walla, which will
knit the Walla Walla and the Yakima
systems Into one, and pass through
the Irrigated section of Burbank and
Attalia. New lines will be pushed In
all directions where the possibility
of business warrants the cost, and
attention will be devoted to the possi
bilities of irrigation by electric pump
ing. The new owners believe there
will be a demand for power In the
Yakima. Walla Walla and Columbia
valleys for this work, and are pre
pared to handle the new business
Just as soon as equipment can be con
structed for the purpose.
The principal offices of the com
pany will be in Portland but there
will be local offices In Astoria and
Pendleton. Ore., Lewiston, Idaho, and
North Yakima, Sunnyside, Mabton,
Kennewlck. Pasco and Walla Walla,
Wash.
There will come under the com
pany s control the plants recently
nougnt hy the Columbia Power
Light company and the Yaklnia-Pas-
co company from the Northwest cor
poration, tne Northwest Light &
Power company, of North Yakima
and the Yakima Valley Power com
pany. The two latter companies have
been known generally as Ptrnhorn
properties.
The Columbia and Yakima-Pasco
companies were formed pending the
completion of the organization of the
Pacific company. The Astoria Elec
trie company and the Walla Walla
Valley Hallway company also will be

transferred to the Pacific Power &
Light company, although the latter
company will be operated by the rail
way company under its own name.
Big Enterprise Outlined.
That the Pacific Power &. Light
company was prepared to go Into the
business on a large-scale was declared
Saturday by Mr. Talbot He said it
was the belief of the company and its
officers that there would be a great
deal of irrigation by pumping In the
territory being opened by the Mil
waukee, North Coast and other rail
roads, particularly In the regions
about Walla Walla and Yakima and
in the Columbia river valley between
Pusco and Beverley.
This land lies In a series of benches
at elevations varying from 50 to 200
feet above the rivers from which they
Hike ineir names. The soil is vol
canic ash, needing only the applica
tion of water to make It fertile. Mr.
Talbot snld that his company would
be prepared to furnish the power for
pumping the water and in the Co
lumbia river there would be a never
ending supply of water..
"We expect to. put In a first-class
organization at every town we serve,"
said Mr. Talbot. 'Ve shall Install
modern and up-to-date equipment
and give the best of service. The
new owners have all the money neces
sary for this work and we shall make
the Pacific Power & Light company
a credit to the northwest. Mr. Sykes
who Is out here from New York, and
I have just returned from an exten
sive trip of inspection, having cover
ed the Walla Walla and Yakima val
leys by automobile, and I believe I
may say for both of us that we are
more than delighted at the prospect.
I may add that we are prepared to do
our part in helping to upbuild this
empire.
"By the placing of our various
plants in eastern Oregon and Wash
ington into one system, we have a
much more flexible organization and
distributing .system than was possible
for the old owners, and shall be able
to shift our power loads so that we
shall have plenty of power for all
consumers. Heretofore there has
been a shortage In the Yakima valley
when there was a surplus at Walla
Walla, and vice versa, but when we
finish our connecting line this will
do away with this condition of af
fairs and we can balance our load
better. We expect to have this lino
in operation within the next 60 days.
"The right of way has been ob
tained, surveys have been made and
material is now being delivered. In
addition to the building of this trans
mission line we are just completing
the Installation of a 5000-horsepower
water-wheel, electric generator unit
and of a 3500-horsepower steam-drlv
en-turblne, both of latest design and
most modern construction. We have
plans under way and a considerable
amount of preliminary' work has al
ready been done looking toward the
obtaining of a large amount of ad
ditional power and you may say that
within the next few years we shall
be prepared to deliver between 50.
000 and 100,000 horsepower. Our
total generating capacity now Is about
15.000 horsepower."
