Was Not Built With Hoarded Money The California Oregon Power Company, furnishing publio utility services to 60 cities and towns of the Pacific Northwest, could not have been built up to its present stature of strength, usefulness and stability if the people who furnished its capital had hoarded their money instead of making it do useful work. Investors in The California Oregon Power Company in 1931 received the customary moderate cash returns from their holdings. A large part of these wages paid to thrift was paid to customers . . , people who live in the territory served . . . your neighbors, your friends, perhaps yourself. More than 6,500 individuals have purchased the preferred shares of the Company, and receive regular dividends four times a year. Since April 15, 1921, the Company has earned and paid the regular dividends on its preferred shares . . the 43rd consecutive quarterly dividend was paid . April 15, 1932. Many of our shareholders started their investment in this company by purchasing shares on the convenient monthly investment plan, for as little as $10 down per share. This same opportunity is open to you, at a price that will yield an excellent return. Present Price $86 Per Share, to yield approximate ly 7 on the investment.
