PENNY WISE,
POUND FOOLISH,
WIRING HOUSES
Small Wires And Low CAPACITY
Inadequate For Future
Expansion

An inadequate wiring job is expen-
sive, no matter how low the cost, says
A. v. Krewatch, specialist in rural
identification for the University of
Maryland Extension Service. He
points out that under competitive bids
wiring contractors will many times
install small wires and low capacity
switches and services which meet the
approval of the safety and inspection
service but which are entirely made
quate for future expansion. In addi-
ton, there may be considerable line
and voltage losses that means less
service for each dollar spent.
Mr.. Krewatch says that examples
of this penny wise and pound fool
ish" practice are numerous. A GER
tain Hartford county farmer has had
three pump motors burn out in four
years because the wires from his
buildings to the pump were too small.
A truck farmer in New Jersey was
losing $25 worth of current a month
through line losses to his hotbed in
stallation because the wires between
the bed and services were too small.
Efficiency of lights may be reduced
one-third through faulty wiring and
machinery may require more current
because of ten percent loss in vol
tage in the wires. If poultry equip
ment is to be added to or heavier
motors employed, it would be wise
to see if rewriting is needed.
When rewriting job has to be done
in order to take care of expansion,
most farmers realize that it would
have been far cheaper to have had the
job done right in the beginning, says
Mr.. Krewatch. Before attempting q
rewriting job, he recommends that the
local county agent or power company
representative be consulted so that q
sound wiring program can be work
ed out.

has a constant stream of visitors both
day and night. No one could miss
seeing the large and coloreful art col
lection of Mr.. Osborne who is a resi-
dent of W. Medford and an artist of
years and experience. Some of his
paintings hang in many homes here
and elsewhere and the display here
Nov. 1919 inclusive added prestige
to his work
From a wide and varied collection,
the most popular seemed to be Mr..
Osborne's painting of st. Raphael's
Church, beauty spot of the city with
its well groomed grounds. statue and
pleasant natural surroundings. An
interesting contrast in color, and the
best nature study was Mr.. Osborne's
Symphony in Autumn treatment of
the famous Mystic Lakes. There were
some sea sketches of Providencetown
and Nantucket, many nature studies,
and some interesting character work,
the best of which in the opinion of the
writer, was striking Spanish girl in

Dec. 5, Thursday evening at Shiloh is
the date for all to prepare themselves
for a laughter feast when the Lend

a living picture on the "Simkins

pected to be surprise to all that
attend this worth while program.
Help this club as this club is doing
work worthy of your wholehearted
support. Last Friday the "Debu-
tantes" of West Medford really
showed the Boston clubs how a dance
should be given when they entertained
a packed throng at 558 Mass. Ave.
The same night those up and coming
dukes" had large host of followers
really jitterbugging themselves to
exhaustion at their recent dance.
Medford itself really turned out en-
masse to support this group of boys
who have really done something for
this community. Both clubs at this
time wish to sincerely thank all who
helped make their affairs the sue
cesses that they turned out to be. 1t
is surprising to hear that recent

the following West Medford boys.

Sports
Last Sunday the Junior Ramblers
entertained the highly touted Cantabs
at Playstead Park before a large
crowd of enthusiastic supporters. The
home team completely outclassed their
opponent in kicking, passing and run
ming attacks Why the lie junt oozed
wit power, completely demoralizing
their foe. The backs just swivel-hipped
their ways all over the field. Attempt
ing to pick one standout on this team
would be unfair because all the Ramb-
lers played as one in the most brilliant
fashion ever seen in these parts for
quite some time. Oh, yes, they won
by 60.
