Have Installed Nem
H"orescenf Lighting
Great Improvement for
Merchandise and Window Dis
plays At Rexall Store

R. E. Bushey proprietor Of the
Rexall Store, Is the first business
man in the city to install complete
fluorescent lighting in his store
and show windows. There are two
kinds of fluorescent lighting
daylight and whitelight-and Mr..
Bushey has installed the latter.
There are sixteen tubes in the
store fixtures and two in each
window, and the saving in electri-
cal current consumption over the
old system, is 1000 watts per hour,
approximately SO per month.
Tubes are guaranteed to burn
$500 hours, and although each tube
costs considerably more than the
bulb lights, there is a distinct saw
ing and better light. According to
the foot candle meter, the fluores-
cent lighting is brighter by three
times over the system used in the
store before. The brighter light
displays merchandise in its fullest
colors and enhances window dis
plays.
The Corner Drug Store also in
stalled fluorescent lighting in their
show windows this week.

Sank Centres high school cagers
Of the current year, behind from
the first quarter of ball game
with Swanville, met a stumbling
block on this first game, and their
team Jared plenty in inexperience
looked to a schedule Of twenty-one
games ahead. Which is a good
thing because they have long
way to go.
They're young and green, and
It stuck out all over Them" one of
the coaches said after Swanville's
% to 18 win Tuesday night that
initiated the home season and a
pre-holiday ticket Of half a dozen
games.
While Sank Centre was logged
by inexperience, coaches looked to
the game as an object lesson,
found plenty Of things to teach
the boys for the coming tits in the
West Central Conference play on
Friday and next Tuesday at Ben
son and Appleton.
While Sank Centre rolled out
q young team-0nly one senior
played Tuesday Swanville,
making her most important bid
In district play in number Of
years, was adding her second
victory to the string. Previous
week she had defeated Little
Falls almost identicaIly rs to Is.
Led in scoring by forwards
Mielke and Swatfager and guard
Walthers, Swanville depended much
on bulky guard McRae as often
sive and defensive strongman.
For Sank Centre Jim Arneson,
lone senior and old hand on the
crew, lead the scoring advance
with a point high total. While
he was the mainstay and steadying
influence in the club, others like
Veeder and Cotton were using
their height advantageously for de-
fensive and offensive cover work.
Small, starting forwards Mooney
and Rosedahl are from the outset
little sparkplugs. Both have GER
tain natural abilities, and while at
times their lack Of height is an
obvious handicap, they make up
for it in drive.

PUT UP SUNDAY

the Christmas decorations across
Main and Third Streets Sunday
afternoon land they did a good
job. The decorations are similar
to those Of last year, and the
strings Of lights have been hung

complete the job that day. The

section may present just as
beautiful a sight as uptown.

Telephone
Exchange Set
Record
6,273 Calls Offered
During Month of
November, Reported

With 6,273 toni calls offered in
the month, heightened sharply by
the Armistice Day blizzard and the
succeeding days of that week, the
Sank Centre exchange Of the
Northwestern Bell Telephone COM
pany established a new record for
the month of November, it was be-
lieved this week.
In view Of a generally rising
trend over a period Of three years
Miss Lulu Kriesel, chief operator,
pointed out, the record November
probably sets a new high in the
history of the local exchange.
Directly responsible for this in
crease-in the past two years only
August, 1888 comes near the Nov
ember figures the Armistice Day
blizzard, breakdown of the calls
day by day shows. For six days
the peak rush continued with the
height reached on Thursday, the
14th, when the operators were Of
fered 408 toll calls for the day.
The increase began on the 18th
with 255 calls, swung a little lower
on the 18th as operators were un-
able to get through on some lines
then started to march back UP. In
the five days of that week 1854
calls were offered.
But that wasn't all. In addition
operators were swamped with local
and farm line calls during the
storm period. An estimated daily
average of 5000 such calls was, dur.
ing the storm, doubled and at times
trebled. Thousands Of this type OF
call were handled daily.
Operators pointed out that al
times they were out of circuits
with which to connect callers try
ing to get the board.
A five day average Of toll calls
from the records Of the chief opera
tor shows 81 for the week of Nov.
ember 18th. That Is nearly double
for the same week Of a year ago
As basis for comparison the
daily average Of local and farm
line calls was established in Octob-
er Of 3143. With the local exchange
now serving GOT telephones in the
city and rural lines, the daily aver
age for each phone during October
was 3.5 calls.
