POKER POINTER.

THERE is a paragraph going around
l. the press that the governor of this
state is the best poker player In the
United States.
Shucks! We can hold four aces five
times as often as he can.
We have tried It. and We know
whereof we speak.
He lacks sand as a buffer, and he
can't fill a flush in twenty times.

SHALL WE HAV
A white WAY"
s., 900 Will Make Main Street of Grand Rapids
Look One Hundred Per Cent Better

Messrs. Allen and Jackson of the
General Electric Co., of Chicago, were
in our city Monday comforting with a
committee appointed by the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association and
one appointed by the Mayor in refer
ence to electric lighting the city of
Grand Rapids from the C. M. & St.
Paul depot on the west side to the
Public Library building on the east
side. In other words to have this sec
ton of our streets lighted on both
sides and generally spoken of as the
white Way"
1t was their suggestion to put in II
lights, 8 of which would be placed on
the wagon bridge crossing the Wiscon-
sin river and the rest extended with
arms from the present electric light
and telephone poles. To do this some
of the poles might have to be moved
from their present location so as to
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1916-10-19

have them occur opposite each other
on the street. 1t was the general O.
pinion that work should all be done and
material furnished for about $4,000.
This would include all costs, some of
which would have to be borne by the
telephone and electric company separ-
ately and in some cases jointly. 1t
strikes US with these facts in view that
this would be an excellent opportunity
and time to have the work done, move
what poles that would be necessary,
straighten out the electric and tele-
phone wiring necessary to improve the
general condition and outlook of our
entire business street between the two
points mentioned.
We sincerely hope that our city ia
theirs and business men will favor this
improvement and see that it is carried
out for the benefit of the entire COM
munity.
