Electricity works hard in the modern home.
And you put it to work in every room in the
Louse. That’s why house wiring today must
be better, more complete .
and for the future.
. Adequate now
Adequate Wiring gives added convenience,
too. For example, when there are too few
cutiets, your furaiture must be placed not
where it-locks best but where the few outTats are. Also one must disconnect a clock
or radio to run the vacuum cleaner.
Insist on complete, modern Adequate Wir_ing in your new home. Look for it in your
house plans and keep it there. Don’t cut
down on your house wiring. You'll be
sorry later if you do.

Cops of Grass Valley have raised a
thousand dollars to pay for the illumination of this place on Saturday
evening in honor of Gov. Haight.
Well, they have a right to spend
their money in that way if they see
proper. But what we would like to
know is, where they will find houses
in this town to illuminate. Judging
from what we saw the other night
during the torchlight procession for
‘Booth, we should think that only one
house in ten was occupied by Democrats. Why is it the cops of Grass
Valley have to raise money to illuminate here? —Transcript.
