LETTER FROM
DELIVERED

^CANADIAN
A letter which presumably lay in the swamps of Ar-
kansas following the wreckage of^the air mail plane near
Goodwin, Ark., last week reached its destination here
Saturday. It was addressed to Mrs. G. F.. Hoover and was
written in New York City, Monday, January 13.
The outside of the envelope Was stamped, "Damaged
due to air mail interruption Goodwin, Ark., Jan. 14, 1936."
Apparently the letter had bee# thoroughly soaked in
water, and it is believed it was picked up in the 'swamps
fallowing the wreck of the fast aft mail plane near Good-
win. The stamp was not on the.-.letter and the ink with
which the writer penned the Epistle was blurred as

NEW EQUliPMENT IS
ORDERED BY CITY
LIGHT PLANT VOLTAGE REG-
ULATORS AND SWITCH
BOARD COMING
New equipment for the city's
light plant was contracted for
by the city commission last
Thursday. Officials say this ap-
paratus will insure users of el-
ectric current here against fluc-
tuation in voltage.
The contract for the equipment
was between the city and the
General Electric Company, E. C.
Fisher,'mayor, informs The Rec-
ord. It will cost approxiinately
$4,300, and is expected to be
installed early in March.
Included in the order placed
by the commission is a new six-
panel switchboard. The old
switchboard was cracked as re-
sult of the recent fire at the
plant, city employes say. Three
voltage regulators have been or-
dered. These will provide a re-
gulator for each engine in op-
eration. Also, a master clock has
been ordered to control electric
clocks over Canadian.
Those here negotiating the
deal were: Major George Bos-
tock, Dallas, switch gear special-
ist for the General Electric Com-
pany, and Ed Mugford salesman

pany.
