Cone of Bend, Oregon T i F MEDICAL W A C ’s are needed desperately . * to help army nurses care for wounded fighting men w ho are being returned to the United States for hospitalization. More than 30,000 wounded men an coming back to hospitals in the U n ite States every month. Army nurses are doin | valiant job in helping these men return to a normal existence. But one nurse can* competently care for only ten patients. And, today they are being forced by necessity to care for nearly 30 patients each. That means that 20 w ounded fighting men are not getting the care they so sightly d eserve. . . That’s why there is such an urgent need for medical W A C ’s. L—t IF YOU CAN'T BE A I t f s n e t be t e e l e t « w it h te e lit t le tn re fe r e a r reterning weended f ig h t in g m e n Jledical IMac “I t was an important step forward for the people who live in central Oregon when Pacific Power & Light came here. W e need PP& L’» resources, technical knowledge and experience to get the right kind of elec tric service, so essential to growing areas like this. 44PP&L has increased our power re sources, improved our electric service and brought down the price of electricity. A good electric service company never stands still— it’s always growing and improving — and that's what I particularly like about PP&L. Those fellows are always out in front with the latest in electrical progress. 44W e’ve got just about everything elec trical in our home, and PP&L has made electricity our cheapest servant.” J 5, Y E A R S OF William B. Cone, electrical auperviaor of the ShevU»- Hixon pine mills of Bend, Oregon, came west from Minnesota in 1910 and started to work for the Allis- Chalmers Company in the electrification of lumber plants in the Pacific Northwest. During the ensuing years, while following the practical work, Mr. Cone also continued his studies of the technical end of electrical engineering. In 1915 he came to Bend to work on the electrification of the Shevlin-Hixon mill, ¿ontinned to work there ae an electrician, and in 1917 was appointed electrical super visor. Mr. Cone is responsible for the maintenance and operation of 750 electric motors, ranging in else from 54 h.p. to the big 250 h.p. motors that operate the hand saws in the m ilt He also has charge of more than a hundred miles of electrical circuits supplying lighting and signal control and fire alarm systems. Ingenious and inventive, Mr. Cone has designed and. put into operation three separate electric services for the Shevlin mill, and has at times designed electrical mill equipment ahead of manufacturers. Ona of hit latest inventions is an electrically-driven bicycle, powered by an auto storage battery and an electric, starter from a car—e device used to get him through the 154 milee ot mill yard with no waste of time.
