A New Unit.

The Logan Light and Power
Co. have purchased another direct
connected generator. This will
place them in position to be safe

service. AT present they have one
generator.
Manager Wagenhsls says with
the other unit he could carry

tends to solicit business for a day
service. This should be boon to
the users of power in small con-
Germs and will be especially fine
for the women folks for electric
irons and vacuum cleaners. There
are numberless devices that lessen
labor and add to the comfort of
the home and no doubt if day

dents will avail themselves to use
them,
