THE BARRAGE RUNNER
GAS COMPANY
IN DEMONSTRATION
8HOWS HOW TO SAVE GA8 WITH
NEW   APPLIANCES   UNDER
•/a OZ.  PRESSURE.
The Logan Natural Gas Co. through
Its local ofllce is giving a demonstration this week on how to save gas
and yet get results.
At its office there are two hot plates
and a new kind of gas stove. Mr.
Fritz, local manager, said as he demonstrated that too many gas ranges
huve the burner too far from the plate
ot the stove. In cold weather, when
the pressure is low, little heat will be
obtained when a stove 1b thus regulated.
Mr. Fritz shut the pressure of the
gas down to V*a ounce pressure. He
has a stove that gives a blaze just as
high as many stoves do when a higher pressure ls turned on, and yet it
ls running on but a half ounce pressure. At this pressure, a light equipped with an ordiuary gas mantle will
hardly  light.
Mr. Fritz states that never has the
gas here beeu us low as Vs ounce
pressure and probably never will be,
but he uses that pressure to show
that the stove can be operated on that
amount of gas. The lowest pressure
Amherst has ever received has been
about  two ounces.
The manager advises all housewives to Investigate and see if their
gas range burners are down too low.
Jf so, they could easily be changed,
and ln the end will save much gas-
end money—tor the consumer.
The company, in giving this valuable demonstration, does not wish to
encourage the use of gas for heat, but
for stoves ln hallways, bathrooms and
small bedrooms lots ot gas can be
saved by these new appliances. They
will soon be on sale at a local hardware store.
Los Angeles, Cal., Jnn. 19. 1!)20.
The  Amherst  News-Times,
Gentlemen:
We are now located so we cnn give
you a permanent address. We would
like to have you mail us the Amherst
paper as we are anxious to get the
news from home.
Tourists ure coming ln here by tho
thousands; the papers claim 1,500 a
day. This Is a very beautiful country; the lawns are green und the
flowers are In bloom like in the
month of June In Ohio. The sun has
shown every day since we have been
here; it is warm during the day and
cool in the evening.
We have met several former Amherst people—the Eyricks, Gullch and
Carl Wesbecher. My brother has
taken us on several auto trips which
were enjoyed  very much.
This is the celaneBt city I ever visited. The streets are wide and well
paved, and the main roads are like
boulevards. To give you an idea, I
will state one of our trips. Our
friends, Mr. and Mrs. Davis, called
for us with their auto Saturday morn-
tug. Leaving Los Angeles, we motored to Hermosa Beach, Redondo,
Clitton by the Sea, Harbor City. Wilmington, San Pedro, Long Beach,
Lynwood, South Gates, Walnut Park,
Huntington Park and Vernon City,
arriving ln Los Angeles in time for 6
o'clock dinner, and did not strike uny
rough roads ln the day's trip.
Sudnay we attended services at
Trinity auditorium, where there were
2,000 ln attendance. In the afternoon
my brother took us for a mountain
trip, where we saw Mt. Loroe, Mt.
Wilson, and Old Baldy at a distance
with Its blanket of snow, then driving
to Pasadena, suid to be the most
beautiful city in the world, the home
of millionaires. On our return we
passed through a number of orange
groves laden with fruit, and at the
same time in blossom. At some places
they had large displays of oranges
and grape fruit selling them to the
autoists as they pass. I purchased a
basket of delicious oranges for 90
cents and nice large seedless grape
fruit, three for 25 cents.
Fresh vegetables are In abundance
at moderate prices. Strawberries ure
just coming on the market. Butter, is
70 cents, strictly fresh eggs 60 cejjts
a dozen.
Judging from paper reports, you
have had to shovel some snow lsnce
we left home.
Yours very truly,
E. H. NICHOLL.

7 to 6 In Amherst's favor. In the second half they played rings around
Vermilion. The Amherst guards did

With the good teamwork of the rest

The flu has hit Amherst und seems
to be gaining steudily. Dr. Turner,
health olllcer, reported Wednesday
evening there bad been 40 cases reported to him and there will probably
be more. The hospital is flleld with
flu patients.
Dr. Turner says If any more cases
are reported he will enforce u strict
quarantine ln town. He usks that all
managers of public places, such as
movies, do not allow children with
coughs or colds to enter. He thinks
that with the help of the public, the
epidemic may be stamped out soon,
but unless orders are obeyed aud everybody guards ugainst tbe disease,
the results are liable to be serious.
The disease is spreading rapidly ln
this part of the country, with health
officials doing all ln their power to
get It under control. Strict quarantine measures are being put into effect. The flu seems to be of a mild
vralety as compared with last year,
when the percentage of pneumonia
cases was high and deaths numerous.
