WHAT’S
SACK OF THS BUTTONt
Dallas, Tex., Jan. 2.—Fran-
chises of public utility compan-
ies were discusses by W. B.
Head, chairman of the board
of directors of the Texas Pow-
er & Light Company, in an
address, last week before stu-
dents of the Southern Metho-
dist University in thi3 city.
Mr. Head pointed out the de-
velopments that have resulted
from studies of the utility pro-
blem and from experience and
reviewed several theories as
to franchises. i
Ths desitability of a long-
term franchise both from the
point of view of the consumer can’t possibly hurt you-4-and
and the utility comp-any w^s also—it’s cheap.) You uoozy
shown in the problems of fin- old fellers who long for the
ancing extensions and improve- days when you painted your
ments that are always more smellers in various ways; who
yearn for the speedy return of
the time when a man migh*t be

and yet with a nickeL he’d
bum from his pards could get

upon;
“In some utilities such as
electric light aQd telephone
compares, the public police
thought the way to control the
utilities* rates was to allow
competition, and as' a result
many of our cities had their
streets burdened with two sets
of telephone poles and electric
light poles. The public, how-
ever, has long since learned
that this is not the intelligent
way to get the lowest rates.
Money invested must be earn-
en upon, and duplication of
investment in the end always
means higher rates.”

“The indeterminate' fran-

tures to it,” said Mr. Head.
“It has a tendency to force |

We solicit your continued patronage during the New '

you may need. As an inducement we will allow A
Discount of 5 Per Cent on AU Purchases Paid For Over

We’ll let you into a secret—-when it’s cold you won’t use .
so much ice. Don’t think of the winter ice bill in terms of the
summer expense. A piece of ice lasts a long time in cold

seller and the purchaser when
of the bankrupt c^irts for the past several years. Let’s
therefore change this system by reducing it to a CASH
BASIS, thus avoiding reckless purchasing at high prices
which we so readily fall for when the privilege is toler-
ated and encouraged.

Then folks found that by putting butter And milk in the
“cooler” these things kept longer and sweeter. After a while
people began putting more things on the ice. About this time
some wise fellow invented the home refrigerator which has a|
separate compartment for ice and feiore places for other foods.
And you know the rest—we simply can’t do without ice.
Burisome folks, tn fact many of them, have not discovered
the advantages in “taking” ice all-year-around, Spring, Sum-
mer, Autumn and Winter, ESPECIALLY WINTER.
