They may look like daring young men on the flying

the air, viii no net underneath.
It's tough enough up there on a hot summer day.
It's worse on a wet black night - or when every
things slippery with sleet. But the job must be
done. It's part of giving you good electric service.
Fortunately, there are men who have the courage
and skill. to do it. Just as there are other men who
control complicated switchboards in lightning
storms.
These folks know what to do because they've
been doing it a long time. Men and women grow
up in the electric light and power business. 1t takes
years to become a pOwer-plant engineer. Almost
every other job is specialized and technical.
The uaIue of this practical experience - and of
sound business management has been dramati-
caIIy proved by war. In spite of shortages of many
essentials, there is no shortage of electricity and
it is still sold at Ioo pre-,Om prices!

The condition Of Thomas Walker,

fell six stories from a loop hotel
early Sunday morning, is good. He
is confined TO the Wold-Chamber-

When Walker was found in the
room, the officers locked the door,
left the room to summon the Navy
Shore Patrol. Walker disappeared
and was later found injured six
floors below on an adjoining roof.
Walker told questioners that he
hung from the window by his hands,
finally letting go because of the
cold. First reports that Walker
had suffered a broken back were
found to be false.
The girl, a probationer from
St. Paul, was questioned by the
police. She had rented the room at
