HOT TIME in THE OLD
TOWN WHEN WHISTLES
ANNOUNCED OPENING

At z o'clock last night the city
was aroused from its lethargy by
the most unearthly din of screech-
ing whistles heard since the bat
tleships entered the harbOr.
Many thought the town must
be on fire, but twas too wet for
that. Others for a moment for
got and thought 1t was New Years
eve, but it finally dawned on most
people that Tacoma was just be-
ginning the weeks celebration at
the Armory, where she Is going
to show the people what Tacoma
hands and brains and wheels and
spindles are doing.
1t is a great show.
The Armory is mass of
booths, American flags and daz-
zling lights.
And the City Light booth is
just about the most attractive in
the whole bunch, and Tacoma is
there demonstrating what the
city makes-eleetric Juice and
what 1t can be used for.
Following the lead of the city,
all the various private enterprises
are on hand showing their prod
uct, and many of them showing
how it is made right there.
There is everything from sewer
pipe to candy, and from overalls
to soda biscuit.

$4,000 POWER
SAYS HERMAN

While wise ones who may or
may not have axes to grind are
telling how the new Nisqually
power plan will not generate
enough juice to light the city
streets alone in three years, the
plant is hitting it up lively, and
Herman Keith, who is on the
ground, says it will turn out &c.
900 horsepower right now, in
stead of $4,000, if the city has
use for the larger amount.
Apparently the thing for the
city to do is to quit discussing
how much or how little the plant
will turn out and get in and sell
the juice.
Citizens are getting positively
hilarious over Commissioner
Freeland's proposition to make
Tacoma the electric city of the
world by getting everybody to
cook with electric Juice.

The sewer pipe exhibit OF l..

of his decorations, consisting of
