Amundsen writes:
“During the expedition of the ‘Fram’
to the Antarctic, a great quantity of
the Peter product was consumed. The
eating chocolate in particular was a
joy for all of us. Its nutritive proper
ties and its exquisite taste proved that
it highly merits the universal renown
which it has already gained.
Very truly yours,
(Sig.) ROALD AMUNDSEN.
Bundefjord, January 17, 1914.”

it no more than a small margin.
This is the consumers’ company and it is con
ducted on the belief that the people are willing to
pay reasonable prices for what they use, and that
they do not want any body to lose money in legitimate
business any more than they want to pay swollen
profits on watered stock.
QUERY:—If the Seattle-owned electric company can afford to
furnish telephones for $1 a month and electric current
for 2 cents a kilowatt how much did it make on tele
phones at $5 a month and “juice” at 15 cents a kilo

pany was organized?
