OF All the
Ways to Go
to California

experienced folks are agreed that
for comfort, enjoyment and econ
omy, Burlington Personally Con-
Quoted Parties hit the nail on the
head. Think of going all the way
without single change enroute,
through Denver, ColoradoSprings,
Royal Gorge, Scenic Colorado
and Salt Lake by daylight! And
under the personal charge of a
congenial, competent excursion
conductor, whose sole duty is to
look after your comfort and en-
joyment, and to indicate and ex-
plain the points of interest en-
route!
1t is certainly the one care-free
way to California. Special atten-
ton is given to elderly persons,
women and children travelling a.
lone.
This is just one of the Burling-
toms Willingness-to-Serve fea-
lures rendered without charge to
its patrons.
When you travel west be "a Bur-
lington guest.
The Burlington's illustrated
folder, telling you of this wonder
full way of travelling to California
will gladly be furnished free upon
request.

Thursday, February Is
Everybody Come!
THE LIGHTS WENT OUT

The old arc machine, which has
furnished Juice" for the street
lamps of this city since the plant
was installed fifteen years ago,
laid down and died burned out
Sunday night and will have to be
replaced before the arcs will be in
use again. The Council will attend
to this matter with all dispatch pos
sible, and it will probably be not
more than couple of months, or
maybe less, before the new system
is installed
When the new system is installed
River Falls will be the best lighted
city in the Northwest, and our PEG.
pie will feel amply repaid for the
inconvenience of this delay. The
old arc machine is an obsolete af-
fair. The new one will be the very
latest and best. 1t is to be what is
known as the new system of high
efficiency luminus arc tub. The tub
system is rated at go per cent. efici-
ency, as against 62H per cent. ef-
ficiency of the old one. The high
efficiency luminous arc lamps, such
as the one recently installed at the
corner of Walnut and Second streets,
require but $50 watts current, while
the others require $50 watts. 1t re-
duces the current consumption and
increases the volume of light at
ration of to /. The lamps ale
called S ampere high efficiency lu-
minous arcs.
