more right to say a good word for

opportunity offers. During the past
summer the company has run day
current at a loss. and il is yet con-
tinuing at a loss. Having once made
an advance movement they do not
propose to retreat, but announce that
the day current will be permanent
feature OF their business. In order to
supply the wants of those who are
thinking Of installing motors samples
will be kept on exhibition at the COM
pany's office. Electrical power Is per-
fcction for many kinds OF business.
and we trust that the demand for
motors will be such as to causc the

take was made in announcing the
