William E. Gladstone was man-
aging the affairs of an expanding
British Empire, as Prime Minister
when he was eighty-three.
We’ve
never seen a

hat that
was
a perfect
fit, but
we’ve seen a
lot that were con-
vulsions.
When a driver tries to pass you
and misjudges the space available,
drop back and let him into the

“Your cooperatiogpin furnishing
equipment, materials, engineering
assistance, and skilled operating
personnel to War Department in-
stallations served by your organ-
ization,” Lt. Gen. Walker’s let-
ter of transmittal said, “enabled
those installations to operate their
electrical facilities with a mini-
mum of critical materials and
manpower.”
During the war, Community
Public Service Company served a
number of air fields, war plants,
army camps, war housing projects
and other military and defense in-
stallations in its territory, and
worked closely with Army officials
in solving electric utility con-
struction, operations and mainten-
ance problems.

Dickey Drug Store
Robbed Friday
J. D. Dickey’s Drug Store at
Blossom was robbed Friday night
| of over $2000 in cash and other
negotiable instruments and 665
grains of narcotics and other val-
uables.
Officials reported the combina-
tion to the safe had been forced
off, and that the handle had been
broken.
Insurance records were found
on Highway 82, one mile west of
Reno, and bills were found about
two miles east of Paris.
Losses sustained were: $815 in
cash, $490 worth of checks, postal
savings certificates amounting to
$250, $500 worth of scries E War
Bonds, an undetermined amount
of deeds and insurance papers, a
large supply of narcotics, and
eight surgical knives.
.Over 665 grains of heroin, mor-
phine and codeine were included
in the wide assortment of stolen
narcotics, officers stated.
SHRINKAGE SURE TO COME
A stout gentleman, determined
to lose weight during his stay on
his farm, hustled to the store for
a pair of overalls. He picked out
a pair big enough for energetic ex-
ercise. Then a thought struck him.
“Wait a minute,” he said to the
clerk. “Those fit me now, but
I expect to lose a lot—maybe I’d 1
better buy a smaller pair.”
The clerk calmly went on wrap- |
ping up the overalls. i
“Mister,” he said, “if you can
shrink as fast as those overalls a
will, you’ll be doing pretty good." ’

—and yoa can’t get full-measure electric
service from home wiring that’s inadequate
The ability of a home to function, elec-
trically, depends upon the wiring system,
located in the walls, ceilings and floors.
Wiring is inadequate if lights dim when
appliances are operating ... if heating ap-
pliances come up to temperature slowly
... if fuses blow frequently ... if exten-
sion cords must take the place of outlets
... if one appliance must be disconnected
to plug in another... if it is necessary to
grope in the dark to find a light switch, *
Adequate home wiring removes these ob-
stacles to efficiency and convenience ...
permits you to enjoy full-measure electric
service for better electrical living. If you
plan to build, buy or remodel a homed
insist on adequate wiring.
What Is Adequate Wiriog?
I
Adequate wiring simply means a service entrance large
enough to bring in as much electricity as your home may
need at any time, enough branch circuits of large enough
wire to conduct a full measure of electrical energy to your
lights and appliances, plus plenty of outlets and switches,
properly located. Adequate wiring is the key to better elec-
trical living.
