BOARDMAN
"Adam and Eva," a three-act com
edy, will be presented by the stu
dent body of Boardman high school
in the school auditorium on Satur
day evening, December 15 at 8:00
o'clock. This is a bright and
amusing play on a wealthy Ameri
can business man with an extrava
gant, selfish family. In desperation
the father puts his young business
manager, who loves a home, in
command of the household while he
takes a trip. The young man soon
finds himself confronted by the
same hurricane of flippancy and
terrific bills. As a final remedy he
deludes the family Into thinking
that father's big rubber business is
ruined. In divers and humorous
ways, they meet the emergency. Of
course, it does them all good and
brings out the best in them.
The cast, under the direction of
Miss Falk, has been working hard
on the play, and a big success is
expected. Remember to keep this
date, December fifteenth, open, and
you will be highly repaid by an eve

picture where the dog used his jaws

tremendously and all held their
breaths at times and then ohs! ahs!

A nnouncement
A Christmas Glad-Making
SALE
Beginning FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7th
Drastic reduction on all articles at the Fair
Store will take place during this sale which
lasts to New Year. We aim to prove that
chain stores and catalogue houses can be
beaten by individual business ownership.
The secret of success in the modern mercan
tile game is not the great purchasing power
for the change in styles often eliminates the
effectiveness of buying in bulk. The indi
vidual merchant has the advantage by often
purchasing his needs by preventing accu
mulation of so-called dead stock. The cat
alogue houses and chain stores have seen
their best days. Equal opportunity for in
dividual achievement is the slogan of President-elect
Hoover. Individual achieve
ments possibility is the best preventative
against monopolizing prices in the future
by catalogue houses and chain stores.

Steam That Has
Fourteen Lives
The cost of the modern
electrical conveniences
enjoyed by the average
American family rep
resents but 1.11 of
the household budget.
This is approximately
$28.30 a year, or eight
cents a day.
What a giant of power is the
steam locomotive as ri thunders
up the grade. Yet the roar of its
exhaust tells the tale of tons of
living steam that go to waste.
In the generating plant of your
electric light and power company
are power giants of another kind
softly humming turbines with
the strength of a thousand loco
tives on their shafts.
Not so much as a wisp of steam
escapes. Rather, each jet of steam
is made to multiply its power four
teen times. Not until the last
ounce of its energy is exhausted
is it released, and even then its
'heat is used to warm the water
for the boilers.
Every detail in the operation of
your electric light and power com
pany is planned to yield the ut
most in efficiency and economy.
That is why the modern electric
motor can pull the load of other
engines many times its size at but
a fraction of their operating cost.
That is why the modern factory
and the modern home can take ad
vantage of the electrical miracles
of our scientifi cage at a cost
which puts the power of electric
ity within the reach of all. As
daily it is put to ever wider use,
the complete electrification of
America approaches realization.
