Communications Where do advertising slogans origi nate? Often their source is known only to those who are preparing and directing the advertising In w,hieh they are used because they are de vised by members of these groups, In one current series of cigarette advertisements, however, the adver tiser explains Just where and how the slogan used In them originated In this unusual Instance, one of the advertisements appearing in the newspapers throughout the country gives ci edit to the public for the phrase "Luckles Please," and presses appreciation to smokers for lb, "You, our personal friends, have been saying it for years, the adver tisement points out.. "And because so aptly sums up the Lucky Strike story, we've taken the words right out of your mouth. May we thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Smoker, for giving us this phrase?' Water Board's Stand To the Editor: The board of water commissioners have been asked a number of times to define their stand In the proposed bond Issue for sewerage disposal. At the Inception of the proposed Issue by the Chamber of Commerce committee, the water commission was approached and agreed to the following plan: The commission would reduce their water rates from the $2.50 base to $2.36, allow a 15 cent wwer charge to be added and collect the same, leaving a combined charge for sewer and water the same as Is now charged for water alone meter service would be deducted by approximately 8 per cent. The rate for outside users would not be dis turbed. To do this and so as not to materially alter the water bond re tirement schedule, the city council agreed to reinstate and levy each yaer thereafter 20.000 for the water bond sinking fund. This levy has been made each year and averages $17, 192.97 per year since 1923 up to this year. There is a possibility under the proposed plan, contingent upon the decline or upturn of Water Depart ment collections, that a part of $198,000.00 old Fish Lake gravity water bonda due In 1038 might have to be refunded. This step waa taken by the water commission after careful study and a thorough appreciation of the emer gency that exists in the sewerage disposal facilities of the city of Med ford. The administration policy of the water commission will remiln the same. CITY WATER COMMISSION, Ed. M. White. Chairman, Eugene Thorndlke. Fred L. Heath. T. B. Lumden, P. B. Rynntng.
