R. V. H. S. Ain 't Nature Grand It was in the far south. How are times? asked the tourist. Pretty tolerable, stranger, responded the old fellow, who was sitting idly on the stump of a tree. I had a pile of brush to burn and the lightning set Hre to it and saved me the trouble of burning it up. I had some trees to cut down, but the cyclone leveled them and saved me the trouble. Remarkab1e! But what are you doing now? Waiting for an earthquake to come along and shake the potatoes out of the ground. ' ' Miss Moore Qin English classj : Lester tell me what it is when I say, 'I love, you love, he loves'. Lester Chambers: That's one of those triangles where somebody gets shot.

ECI-I0 Pioneered in Roanoke Now a World Leader 16 years ago in Roanoke were made the first A. B. C. VVashing Machines. True they operated with the aid of' a gasoline engine, but they so tremendously reduced the drudgery of Wash day that ready sale was found for them in-the immediate vicinity. Since that time, A. B. C. Wlashing Machines have climbed steadily in the public favor until today there are 500,000 of them in use the world over. Not only is the factory in Roanoke necessary to meet the de- mand for A. B. C. VVashing lllachines, but two fac- tories in Peoria, one of them a model for the industry. This t1'emendous popularity for A. B. C. VVashing lllachines has been deservedfonly because of the un- varying high quality, because of the unusual washing eliiciency, and because users know they are getting their full value when they buy an A. B. C. YVashing lllachine. And so, when you leave the class room and take up the duties of a household of your own, remember that an A. B. C. Electric VVashing lllachine should be in- cluded. Not just because it is a Roanoke institution, but because you will be just as completely satisfied as have 500,000 others. Altorfer Bros. Company General OH'ices at Peoria, Ill.
