lifeless counlrv to tho compiet-ors'
Except for the cries of the 10.000
starving babies wandering through
the woods nnd devastated villages
and towns, Serbia will bo deserted,
desolate, voiceless.
Yesterday 1 tried to visunlize for
Americans just how this state of col
ossal misery has been brought nbout
and just what it means. sbotrcd
that 2(10,000 war casualties and the
wiping out by typhus of tlOO.000
mothers and fathers had left a na
tion of orphans, starving, living likn
sonvenuer dogs.
I have just heard from the trem
bling lips of Miss Helen LosnuviMi.
tho beautiful daughter of a former
Scihian minister to bunion, terrible
stories- r,f the utter wretchedness of
these lt "Habes of the Woods."
Tor gripping, pathetic, tragedy,
history has never Iiyird the equal of
theso talcs. Their pathos is stagger
ing. Their appeal must reach down
to the very depths of the hearts of
the mutt cviiical nnd skeptical.
"You cannot possibly conceive
what frightful iiuliappiuess the war
has brotmhl to Sorbin," began Mis.
LoRnnvitch, ,
"They have killed off the parents
nnd have left the children to be hIiiiv

Wordsworth of the lloekefcller

"During the summer the nnnv ear

TO OUR PATRONS
'Phe management of this company is desirous of supply
ing the best possible electric service, in addition to estab
lishing and maintaining at all times the most cordial rela
tions with its patrons.
AVe expect and require all employes of this company to
render every consumer efficient service in the most prompt
and courteous manner, and for the future improvement
of the service we request any patron who does not get the
best possible service from an employe to mail a report of
the circumstances to the nearest Division Superintendent
or General Officer of the company, giving the date, place
and hour, in order to enable us to place the responsibility
for any defective service.
'Phe compam further strives to give all present or pros
pective patrons the fullest information possible about
rates, meters and electrical equipment, so as to clear away
all mystery from these seemingly complex, though, in fact,
pimple problems, and further enable each customor to
make bis own estimates.
Nearly everv problem of lighting, heattnii or power bus
boon solved for home, business, ranch, orchard, mine, or
factory, the Electric Way.
Yours for Electric Service,
