Between practice the Washington
Senators lounge on the hotel green,
listen to the Gulf waters smack

the American league pennant flying
over their ball park at the end of

They firmly believe they will cop

In the background like an ogre.

Tot this team doe not have strong

Walter Johnson, has Impressed upon
them the ' old baseball theory that
"a ball team Is only as strong as Its
utility supply."
"Bluege, Cronln. Kuhel, beat that

"But outside of Joe Judge, we

back them up.
"Our catching staff la satisfactory

more seasoned pitcher that he "ain't

Thoughtfulness and Common Sense
WHEN you save a little money, and invest it in the bonds or stock of
some useful enterprise ... or when you open a savings account in a
bank, and the bank, in turn, lends your savings on good security to a
business that needs capital to do its work . . . you are helping business and
industry to give employment to more people, to buy more materials, to pro
duce and sell more finished goods, to make comfort and happiness in the home.
Tor the use of your money you receive interest or dividends, which may be
tpent for the things you need, or re-invested in the same or other useful work.
But when money is hoarded, what happens?.. There is withdrawn from circu
lation just so much capital that might have been nsed to manufacture needed
goods, to employ labor, to improve homes . . . and the money that is hoarded
does no one, not even the owner, any good.
1 As an example of what can be done with the collective investment of many
individuals, consider The California Oregon Power Company. Serving 60
cities and towns of the Pacifio Northwest with electric service, this organisa
tion has built great hydro-electric generating stations and distribution systems.
Most of its preferred shareholders, numbering more than 6,500, are residents
of the territory served and customers of the Company. They receive regular
quarterly dividends on their Investment. Ever since April 15, 1921, the Com
pany hag paid these dividends regularly, without interruption.
If our shareholders had withheld their savings, hoarded them, hidden them
away, this great service organization never could have been built, Instead
of earning a regular, safe return, their savings might have produced nothing.
The opportunity is open now, to you, to invest in the 6 per cent preferred
shares of The California Oregon Power Company.
Present Price $86 Per Share, to yield approximately 7fc on the investment.
The California Oregon Power Company
