Dollars are bigger than they were a few years
The expenditure of a million of them by business
or industry means infinitely more.
The announcement some time since that the
government would expend $50, 900, 900 on high
ways was gladly acclaimed by the people and
the press, for it was realized that such a sum
would contribute substantially to prosperity.
Inc bethlehem Steel corporation announced
$50,000,0 600 in improvements. The railroads are
to spend millions.
Investments such as these, especially in times
of stress, mean much to the nation. They are
incentives for heavy OUTLAWS in other lines. They
serve to quicken the economic pulse of the whole
country.
not compare with contemplated expenditures of
the electric light and power, gas, telephone and
street railway organizations, estimated at
100000, 600 a year for five to seven wears.
Expenditures of such proportions a few years
ago would have been reflected in rates which.
instead, were held to the minimum, while prices
for most every other thing entering into our
everyday life scared.
No utility organization is able to finance bet

THE ADVENTURES OF BOBBY
CHAPTER II.
By Leonard HolmQuist

After several hours had elapsed,
Bobby woke UP and, Judging from the
feeling in his stomach and the aroma
of fried onions which came from the
kitchen, that it was near supper
lime. Then to BoNJby's active mind
came the thought of the doctor and
how he must have missed the house,
and the pain ne was supposed to
have in his foot He had forgotten
which foot it was now and after a
hort period OF discussion with the
cat who was curled up ait the foot
IF his bed. he decided that the right
foot was the sound member and that
he was to limp on his left.
So after putting on his clothes he
made his way slowly and as painful
ly real as possible to the kitchen,
where he knew he would find the
father, who should be home from
work by This time. So Bobby opened
the door and made his way. slowly to
where his father sat reading the
evening parer. Evidently his father
had not beard him for when Bobby
crept behind him and put fis hands
over his fathers eyes, Mr.. O'Brien
appeared startled and said he could
not guess who waobehind him. or
course, then Bobby had to tell him
that 1T was his son, although BObby's
father, who had to go through this
anne process every night except Set
urdays, which was payday, knew tnat
t was Bobby as sure as he knew that
it was going to rain that night as
re had sprinkled the lawn.
Mr. O'Brien was an enlarged pic
ture of Bobby, so to speak, retouched
with flaming red mustaclle and
cigar In his mouth. He was a KIND
h sarted man but at the boiler factory
where he was a foreman his men
knew him only as big Bob and
never questioned his orders.
Now, coming back to Bobby and
his father. Mr.. OBrie1 was asking
his son about the happenings OF the
day and If the young pugflist had
been a good boy. Bobby, seeing Mrs.
Flanagan putting some cream cake
on the table, realized that he did
not wish TO be sent to bed that even
ing without supper. So he told his
father his misfortunes. not forget
ing. however, to add that Tip was to
blame Tor it all. While thurs relating
to his father his sorrows, Mrs. Elan
nigan came up and sarcastically in
oliired if Bobby had not better limp
ON his right foot for while as
that was the member he first com
planned of.
Bobby. who had Forgotten all
about his injured limb. began at once
to limp more noticeaIbly than ever
before.
Rather sudden attack" thought
his father.
THAT woman is always breaking
I'D my schemes muttered Bobby
aneu.,y. and explained as well as he
could to his father that he had a
cramp in his right foot and SO had
to take turns Eimning on one foot
FOR a while then the other. He had
not thought of limping on both legs.
as he sorrowfully reflected moment
later.
