TURN ON THE LIGHT In halls of science: in little homes; in great industrial buildings; along city streets; in colleges; on ships; in ways of the country rooms of rich man or poor battle in the man turn on the light. It all seems so simple. A button pressed a switch turned and then: dark corners gone, hours utilized, beauty enjoyed, fortunes made, lives saved. "Turn on the light." Did your thoughts ever go be hind tho.se words? Did they ever go back to the huge dam- and water tur bines, where water power is used, or the stupendous steam boilers? Or back to the turbines, engines and generators, wires of high tension iransmission lines and the innumer able smaller wires, all of which, in a sort of endless chain, link up with jour rending lamp? Electricity Would net be the effi cient public fervant it is were it not for the foresight of some 1,450,000 thrifty American citizens who put I their savings into the securities of the I electric light and power industry, j There are still millions of homes I ii the United States without elec I trie service, and which eventually will have it. It is authentically sta'ed that the Unite! States needs J .500,000 additional homes, 500,000 additional factories. 5.000 public schools, 5.000 churches. 00,000 apart ment buildings and 15,000 theaters. Thee, too. mean electric service. There are 150.000 pending applica tiens for power by existing or new inr.ustr'al plants desirous of utilizing t le tricity. The wages of capital in this in d'lsttry are legulated. These wages mut be fixei fairly upon the basis of what it costs to buy money, for mon ey must be invcs'ed in the industry to meet tho public demand.; as they are made. You and your community need this industry and it should receive cur support. NEBRASKA GAS & ELECTRIC CO. t EAGLE V Beacon . Marion '"Shorty" Armstrong, came in from Plattsmouth Saturday after noon and remained till Sunday even-' ing shaking hands with old friends.! Fred Muenchau is serving on the' United States trial jury at Lincoln.; and will .probably be tied up for a! couple of weeks. Ld Carr was also drawn but succeeded in getting ex cused. Just at this time a farmer sacrifices considerable in doing jury duty. Mr. and Mrs. Mark Havens re turned from St. Paul. Minn., Satur day ant! spent Sunday at the John Adams home. Mr. Havens went to Omaha Sunday evening. Mrs. Hav ens remained for a few days visit before going to Omaha where they will make their home. The band meeting last night was somewhat more encouraging.
