$4,000 VOLTS ARE
RECEIVED BY MAN
MITCHELLVIILE OPERATOR CIV.
EN- SHOCK BY AN IMMENSE
CURRENT.

Des Moines. Feb 16.--With holes
burned in his feet and hands and his
face and body scared by the shock of
$4,000 volts of electricity that passed
through his body at Mitchellville, Fay
Lance, aged IS years, sub-station op-
orator for the Interlrban company. is
in Mercy hospital in critical condi-
ton.
Lance is alive because he was hit
by eighteen times the amount OF cur
rent necessary to kill.
Prisoners who die in the electric
chair are given 1900 volts of electric
1ty. The high tension wire and trans
former that Lance came in contact
with in the Mitchellville depot carried
$4,000 volts, or eighteen times the
death shock.
The instant the enormous voltage
struck Lance it hurled him back with
force that sent him Keeling into a
corner, breaking the connection with
his body. President Schmidt OF TIE
company says this saved his life. A
small voltage would have held him to
the wire that carried the current.
In the instant the electricity passed
through his body holes were burned in
his feet because his feet were touch
ing the floor and the electricity es
capped there. Holes were also burned
in his hands. The shock scared his
face and body and burned his eyes
until they are swollen shut
Ohlcials have not ascertained, they
say, just how the accident occurred.
They believe, however, that Lance
was trying to make connection near
the transformer that would give him
additional light in his Office. He was
found unconscious near the trans
former through which the high tension
wires pass.

THE BUSINESS OF
FORGETTING

One of the things we all do
well is to forget
Names that were household
words yesterday are gone today.
The world only looks to it's to-
morrow-never it's yesterday.
Because people knew your
goods and your store year ago
it is no sign they do today.
They forget easily.
You must keep yourself in the
public mind by advertising. 1t
is just as important to make old
friends remember as it is to win
new friends.
Advertising does both.
