MANY DIANAs.

THE trainload of Moon and Diana
cars which was shipped to Florida last
Friday constitutes the November train
load shipment Of these automobiles, 65
per cent Of which are Diana cars. The
majority of the cars in this trainload
are closed automobiles in the Deluxe
models with the exception Of some 40
to so Moon and Diana roadsters for
which there is a strong demand in
Florida This shipment. however, is
merely forerunner Of more and larger
shipments during the next several
months, in fact we feel safe in saying
that there will be at least a trainload
Of Moon and Diana cars shipped to
Florida every month during the next
several months and this average is
based on the fact that the demand for
automobiles in Florida far surpasses
the supply and this, too, at the be-
ginning Of what is said to be the
greatest business and industrial de
yelopment ever recorded in the worlds
history.
In my opinion the great business
and industrial development in the
state of Florida is not to be construed
as boom but rather as the con-
strUctive building up Of q good sub
ftantial state with millions Of dollars
worth of good highways, magnificent
hotels and industries. One of the
most amazing phases about this great
awakening 10 the immense possibilities
for industry in Florida, is the rapid
Development Of suburban property in
both the small and large cities Of this
state and this Development has a
particular bearing on the automobile
industry as Florida has very few in
terurban electric railway systems. 20
that people living in the suburban
towns depend almost entirely on ou-
fomobiles for trnnsnnrtafinn

NEED MORE CARS.

in other words this situation ne
cessitates almost everyone in Flor
ida owning an automobile. Indica-
tons are that there will be more au-
tomobiles owned per capita in Florida
during the next year than in any other
state 10 the Union. Further investiga-
tons show that the majority Of homes
being erected in Florida have built
in garages Cor otherwise) with &c
commodations for two automobiles
and this applies TO the average home.
The great development in Florida
Is not concentrated in any one point
In the state but is general throughout
the state and both the East Coast
and the West Coast are undergoing
such rapid development that It al
most stsggers the imagination Of the
uninitiated. If any one doubts that
the automobile is an absolute neces-
fity 10 human progress today let him

and thousands Of passenger cars and

panies Of which there are multitudes
in Florida have found the automobile
the most effective selling help chat
has ever been used in the real estate
business. Without the automobile
the great suburban districts and coun-
try Development projects IN Florida
would fail because Of lack of trans.
porfation facilities.

THE ELECTRICAL
AGE
Bv MARGI HOPKINS.

THOUSANDS of years ago, when
L the first old Pharaoh conceived
the idea of creating breezes instead
of waiting the pleasure of Nature TO
furnish them, the first invention
was made to pave the way for the
modern electric fan. But in those
days it was only the Pharaoh who
could afford the luxury of fan
servants, the swarthy, shiny slaves
of huge palm leaves brought RELIEF
to their masters from the heat of
summer days. But what brought
relief to the master worked great
hardship on the servants, and so it
was with all other things that made
for the masters comfort There
was no power, no force to, do the
bidding of man in household af-
fairs except that of human agencies.
But that was thousands of years
ago.
Now, the old world is still much
the same as in those days, with the
exception of the changes man has
brought. Season follows season
just as in the first Pharaoh's time,
and summer comes at the same
time of year. So it is that the last
few days have brought our modern
fan servants to the front, and when
We compare these electrically
driven servants with the human
servants of more remote times, we
can then begin to realize how for
tunate we are to be living in this,
the electrical age, for the fan is
but a symbol in this case of the
many luxuries we enjoy.
Cost of Electricity.
That it costs but 11ac per hour
The Winslow mail., 1925-06-02

includes electric percolators, also
When it comes to the matter o.
lighting, a 50watt light costs Tx
per twenty hours.
1t is an easy matter to test your
appliances in your own home and
to determine if they use the same
amount of electricity that is claimed
for them.
Meter Reading.
Electricity is charged for by the
kilOwatt, which is measured by a
meter. Seventeen cents per kilO-
watt after the first ten kilowatts is
the Winslow rate, which, by the
way, is lower than that of many Of
the surrounding towns. Your me-
ter consists of four dials each, with
numbers around the edge that num-
Der to ten A hand on each re-
wolves as the electricity is used
The last dial to the right repre-
sents units place in the figure you
will get from reading the dial; the
second toward the left, tens place;
the third, hundreds place, and the
fourth, thousands place. If the hand
on the first dial is between five and
six, call the number five and put it
in units place. Say the second
hand is between nine and ten, call
the number nine and place in front
of the five. If the third hand is
between four and five, cali the
number four and place it in front
of the nine If the hand on the
fourth dial or the one on the ex-
IRENE left is between one and two
call the number one and place be-
fore the four. Thus your reading
will be 1495 kilowatts. This is the
way the meter man reads it and
each month charges for the differ
ence in the readings of the meter.
To test an appliance, however,
the first dial will be the only one
necessary to read, and the reading
should be checked to the TRACTION
of number Time the period that
your appliance is connected in
hours, and determine from your
reading the fraction of kilowatt
that the appliance uses per hour.
Multiply this by the TIC per kilo
watt to get the cost per hour
Appreciate This Age.
This may seem lot of trouble to
go to, and it is not necessary. Il
you can take the word of your
metre reader, you will not have to
l.
check up,s you invariably will find
him right. Even the meter reader,
along with the other Things con-
nected with the electrical age,
saves us labor. l for one am glad
l did not live in the first Pharaoh's
time, for surely L should not have
been the Pharaoh, and 1 should
have disliked heartily being a
slave.

of the regular session of the Sew
enth Legislature of the State of
Arizona provides for the calling of
a special election to be held on
! Tuesday, the 10Th day of Septem-
Der, in the year 1925, and
Whereas, The bill further pro-
vides that not less than ninety DAYS
before the date of said special cleo

islature and giving the date there
of and briefly setting forth in the
proclamation the nature of each
proposed constitutional amendment
and referendum measure to be
submitted at the said special cleo

proposed to be accomplished by
said amendment and referendum
measure, and
Whereas, The bill further pro-
vides that the Governor shall also
state in said proclamation that
copy of said proposed amendment
and referendum measure may be
obtained by each voter from the
county recorder or from the regis
tering officer by whom such voter
has been registered, and
Whereas, The bill further pro-
vides that the governor shall trans

Whereas, The bill further pro-
vides that the governor shall cause
such proclamation to be published
at least five (5) times in a daily

each county of the state, and if
there be no daily newspaper, at
least five (5) times in a weekly
newspaper of general circulation in
such county, such publication to be
in addition to the publication now
required by law for election procla-
nations, and
Whereas, 1t is further provided
by chapter 1, title 10 of the re-
vised statutes of Arizona, 1913, civil
code, as amended by section SIS,
chapter 35 of the laws of 1922, spe-
cial session of the Fifth Legisla-
ture, that the governor shall issue
a proclamation containing state
ments of the time of election, mat
tiers to be voted upon and an offer
of reward in the form prescribed
to prevent violation of the elective
franchise.
NOW, THEREFORE,, I, George
w. P. Hunt, governor of the State
of Arizona, in pursuance of my
duties as prescribed by law, do
hereby proclaim that special cleo

of Arizona and that same shall be

to operate the largest of the up
right fans, the sixteen-inch oscil-
! lating, seem almost incredible, but
/ such is the case, and it costs but
1 Cloths cent per hour to operate a
ten-inch demonstrating fan. This
fact serves well to illustrate the
economy as we'll as the convenience
of our electrical appliances, and
while electricity is just as indis-
pensable to us in winter as in sum-
mer, still it seems we appreciate
our many labor-saving devices most
during hot weather, when labor
that can be saved is the kind we
like best to do. Summertime and
ambition do not go hand in hand.
In the household there is the vac
uum cleaner and all its attach
ments. AS one manufacturer ad-
vertises, ''Who would sweep and
clean with a broom when vacuum
cleaner does the work with a cost
of about $3.50 a year?"
At first, one would think that
statement could not be true; YETI
considering the fact that the actual
cost of operating a vacuum cleaner
is not quite &c per hour-and this
applies to the Winslow price OF
electricity-and that ordinarily a
housewife does not use a cleaner
more than two or three hours a
week, one can see that the figure is
a conservative one. Electric wash
ing machines operate at small
cost, approximately &c an
hour, according to the make of ma
chine.
The electric appliances that are
used to make heat, such. as the
curling iron, laundry iron, coasters
and grills, operate at a little great
er cost, but considering their con-
venience and the cost of other
fuels, this is not great compare
lively. The heating of curling
iron costs around &c per hour, that
of laundry iron and most coasters
and grills about 10c. This figure

SOUR LAKE TO PAY
KANSAS B0NDHOLDER

BEAUMONT. Nav. 1S.-CR-By
a ruling of Federal Judge W. l..
Estes here today, aldermen of the
city Of Sour Lake at the time the in
corporation was dissolved several
yeas ago, will continue to function
as city dads until sufficient taxes are
collected TO pay a debt due Vernon
III. Branch, of Wichita, Kan, who
purchased bonds issued for improve
ment at the time the present village
was incorporated.
Previously Judge Estes had named
three receivers TO collect taxes and
settle the debt, but on request of at
torneys for Sour Lake the aldermen
will again take up their duties. They
were advised TO reincorporate the vii
lage.
The first order of Judge Estes sew
eral months ago, when the case was
decided in Branch's favor, was that
Sour Lake reincorporate and collect
taxes, but when they neglected 10 car
ry out instructions in what he con-
sidered the proper length Of time. the
further action Of appointing receivers
was taken.
The case was taken TO the appeals
court at New Orleans, and from there
TO the United States supreme court,
which refused TO review the case
few weeks ago.
