SHOCKING" EXPERIENCE
Of CURIOUS CITIZENS

Much fun was enjoyed by the know
ing ones yesterday afternoon as the
curious were induced to try the ex-
pertinent of touching a trolly line
post standing in front of Hays &
Fields drug store.
The occasion of the interest created
was the electrifying of the post to
the extent that 1t gave a distinct
shock to everyone that touched it
even little bit. Like the fox which
has lost his caudal appendage in at
tempting to catch fish through a
hole in the ice by the insertion of his
tail, those who had been fooled into
getting shock, were ready to stand
by and see others take the same risk
with the same results.
