Twenty-FOur Hour Service Soon

We are informed that we are to have "A hour lignt servlce in the near future. We are in re- ceipt of a letter from Mir. H C.. Couch, president Of the Arkan- sas Light & Power Go. of Pine Bluff, in which he states that conditions are getting back to normal and that his company hopes to complete the extension of the line to Carlisle some time in the early spring, and trusts that the people here will appre- ciate the 24-hour service to the extent that they will give fair return on the investment made.
 We are glad to note that the prospects are good for the ser vice we have been looking for so long, and believe the people will give the concern the patronage good service warrants. There are several concerns here that will use electric power as soon as it can be had and more peo pie will use lights when they can get a continuous servlce.
 Mir. Bridgewater of Pine Bluff was here Monday checking up the needs of material for making the change in the light service and stated that it would not be long before work would be be. gun on putting things in shape for the new service.
