There was no lava coming from

RAY BATTERIES HAVE
COME TO MILFORD

The Milford Battery and Electric
Shop has been appointed to represent
the Ray Battery Company, of Ypsil-
anti, Michigan Ray Batteries, made
famous by their "Lavier Formula
Plates are already stocked and are
ready for immediate installation in
practically every make of car.
This new service station becomes
a part of a National organization in
stituted by the Ray Battery Company
to render extraordinary battery ser
vice. The foundation of the policy of
this organization of service stations
is a battery made especially for, and
sold only for, replacement purposes,
confning the manufacturing to one
field and one policy.
AS evidence of high quality, the fac
tory presents a twO-year guarantee to
each customer. This guarantee, which
becomes effective the date the battery
is sold, is unconditional, which means
that if the battery fails to function
properly at any time within two years
from date of sale by the service sta
tiOn, a new battery is given free.
There are no adjustment clauses
whatever. Thus the purchaser knows
he will have no repair charges for
two years, unless he allows his bat
terry to freeze, damages it in an acci-
dent, or allows it to run down so that
it needs recharging.
The final tie-up with unusually
strong guarantee is careful selection
by the factory of it's representatives.

their ability to maintain the stand
ard of service called for by The fac
tory. This careful selection provides
an expert service of national scope
for Ray batteries, assuring every pur-
chaser or owner of a Ray conscien-
tiousebattery advice and minimum
cost for service.

PAYING LESS FOR FUN

One of the many disconcerting fea-
lures of the period of "squanderma-
mia" from which we are emerging has
been the inordinate prices paid by the
patron of theatrical amusements, and
one of the reasons for the excessive
tariff of admission fees has been the
preposterOus expectation of playhouse
attaches in the matter of wages, as
well as the mounting cost of every
commodity connected with the thea
tire.
The public is like the public of Lin
coins day-it is not permanently gull
lible. 1t will welcome a return to mo-
dest and reasonable charges for its
amusement; and it will reward with
liberal measure of patronage those
who meet it's expectations in this par
Observation-Disclosures Inquirer
Other prices are going down; there
is no reason why the cost of theatre
tickets should not drop, too. Managers
in New York, where monstrous prices
have prevailed for several seasons, are
their theatres to the tune
of $3.50 per seat, and certainly that
is enough to pay for all but the most
entertainment. 1t is ceas-
ing-if it has not ceased-to be smart
to show how much one can spend for
a little in places of public resort.

AUTOISTS! AVOID ACCIDENT BY
GIVING PROPER SIGNALS

Proper signals are not acts of cour-
tesy-they are absolutely vital to safe
ty.
The driver behind you is not mind
reader, and EVERY driver should
guard his own safety and that of 9TH
er drivers by the following signals:
The outstretched hand
1. When pulling away from the
curb.
2. When turning at intersections.
8. When turning in street.
4. When changing course.
The arm above head
1. When stopping.
The sounding of the horn
1. When passing Overtaken Vehic-
les.
2. When approaching intersections.
Don't signal in a half-hearted way.
Every day the danger is increasing.
Strict obedience to the laws of the
State is incumbent on every citizen.
Reduce speed of your machine when
another and keep under con-
troll.
Concrete roads were not built for
speed-ways and racing.

Too Much Of a Good Thing

A clerk went to work for a certain
Manchester firm, and as the Offices
were situated some distance from the
centre of the city, the workers were
provided with a midday meal.
The new clerk was huge man and
had an appetite of corresponding mag
nitude.
During his second week with the
firm he said to his neighbor at the
table, after the first course, "I won
der what we shall have for sweets
today?"
His colleague replied, "Oh, rice
pudding"
"Yes," replied the clerk, "but we've
had rice pudding every day for over
a week"

been here eight years and we have
had rice pudding every day, so I
guess it's rice pudding today"

Whose breath upon our lives could make us whole:
The stirring of whose splendor like a breeze

Though few there be who give the stranger room
Or bid him the threshold Of mans gloom
Our darkened chambers shutting out the sun,
Our word denying the Supernal one.
Oh, what of Superman today who calls

The sages tell us OF a Light unknown,
The Pentecosta radiance that shone
To tell the coming of a mighty Presence s's
And some have touched the sacred ridescence,

Flashes across the centuries OF space:
