ANNUAL MEETING STOCKHOLDERS
VALLEY Light and POWER co

The annual meeting of stockholders
of the Valley Light and Power Co.
was held in Woodstock Wednesday
night Jan. %, 1924.
The following officers and directors
were elected
II. B. Chapman, Pres; w. S. French
Secretary Treasurer; Attorney for the
Company Judge E. D. Newman; Direct
ors-W. S. French, E. D. Newman, j.
B. Rush, C. w. Sheetz, H. B. Chapman.
The Valley Light and Power Com
pany was established in Woodstock in
1911, and is thus entering the four
teenth year of service to the people of
the Valley. In the beginning the com.
pany hada capital stock of SIG, 900 which
has now increased to 500, 1000. Begin
ming with one dam and electric plant
near Woodstock and furnishing lights to
only part of Woodstock, the company
has steadily increased in size of plants
and usefulness to the community.
In 1918 the lines were extended to
Edinburg and in 1914 after urgent calls
from citizens of Strasburg the company
entered that town. In 1922, on account
of increased demand for lights and
power, another dam was erected near
Edinburg, together with plant with all
modern equipment. The company is
now lighting all of Edinburg, Maurer-
town, Toms Brook, Fishers Hill, Stras-
burg Junction, parts of Woodstock and
Strasburg. with many houses between
these towns.
The low prices for current will be
seen when compared with other towns,
the company furnishing current al
eight cents per X. w. hour, while
Winchester pays 10 cents per X. w.
hour, Mt. jackson pays IL cts, New
Market, IL cents, Broadway and Cave
Station pay 10 ck. per X. w. hour.
The reason the company has beer
able to keep this rate SO low is thai
since its organization, the President
Secretary Treasurer, Manager ant
Attorney have served without pay, ant
the company has no bonded indebted
ness.

Belasco-Thurston.

Mystic magic watts plain mortals
into the eerie realms of the unnat-
ural, ghosts dance and solid bodies
disappear into thin air at the Shu-
bert-Belasco Theater this week. for
Thurston. the famous magician, is
back again.
No use to try to solve the bathing
tricks of this noted exponent of ieger-
domain. THE closer you look. the less
you see,'' as Thurston says himself.
It's a complete evening program.
Time flies by, as sleight- of hand,
beautiful girls, grotesquely angular
comedian, curious spirit cabinets,
ducks, pigeons, rabbits, even a horse,
lion, and all the panoply of the
BLACK art" are brought into-play in
a presentation of what has been aptly
called one of the best one man shows
ever put together.
You see a woman sawed in two as
one man from the audience holds her
feet and another holds her head.
A beautiful snow-white Arabian
horse disappears while swinging
on platform in midair.
Thurston has a delightful sense of
entertainment, He plays with boys
and girls from the audience. TO their
great delight. and the huge amuse-
ment of the audience. One little girl,
ruby" by name, received last night
for her efforts. a box of candy, a
baby rabbit" and tickets to the Sat
urday afternoon matinee for children.
There are too many tricks to enum-
crate. Goldfish bowls trimming with
water appear suddenly beneath cloaks.
A beautiful Princess karnaC' is
