Some cities have put small de- nomination debentures on the local market with excellent res sults. Prinee Rupert has been chasing over the earth to get some one to buy her deben- tures and never thought of trying to sell them at home.

New machinery has recently been in- stalled until it has become one of the most modern plants on the Pacific Coast. One of the latest transforma. tions was to reorganize the of- fice end of the business and Mr. Douglas Sutherland, of the heaviest stockholders in the con- cern, has taken charge. This will mean better service than ever and that every patron will have his wants attended to immediately. Mr. EF.
