should say "light" and
at that. The transformer
which has held back the turning on
of Murdock's electric. lights for some
time, arrived last week and was
cut into the line last Wednesday,
when the system was tested out and
found in perfect working order.
The various stores and business
houses which had heretofore been
lighted ' with kerosene lamps and:
improvised gas systems presented a !
wonderfully changed appearance as j
the full power of the illumination!
was turned on. But had the lights
been suddenly turned off a few mo
ments afterward, their absence would
have . scarcely been noticed, as the
smiles of the community would have
shed a ray of light equal to that of
Old Sol himself.
We are glad to note that the long
looked for lights are here, and to
welcome their coming as another
step in the path of progress. Let's
keep Murdock constantly going to
the front.

32-inch; Fast Colors
These fine quality ginghams are shown in many
individual and artistic patterns in clear, bright colors
that are absolutely "fast." Kalburnie ginghams are
shrunk before leaving the mill, which overcomes to a
great extent the shrinking of the garment in washing.
You'll like these fine quality ginghams, especially for
afternoon frocks; they are so soft and smooth in finish.
Kalburnie Zephyrs fear neither sun nor water.
