Alex Weil, of Weil Bros., mer
chants of Corpus Christi, Texas,
made the trip from Seattle to Sew
ard and back in 1930, he was ac
companied by his wife and son.
Among those he talked to regardinfo
the trip was H. H. Watson, a promi
nent business man of Corpus
Christi. Mr. and Mrs. Watson re
cently were through Seward.
Mr. Weil in a recent letter says:
“I surely was glad to get your
letter and to know that you metj
! my friends, the Watsons. Don’t,
think you treated them right by j
giving them January weather in |
■June. I talked to Mrs. Watson's;
brother this morning, telling him j
I i
that I had received your letter and .
he said that he had heard from Mrs. i
Watson and that they were enjoy
ing their trip very much. They had i
planned to go elsewhere this sum
' mer but after telling them of the
wonderful trip that I had, they
tchanged their mind and I hope}
they will get to see the midnight.
sun. Please remember us to Rev.
Kippenbrock of Cordova.”

plating the installation of a new I

publication. The press which they j
have been using has been in serv- j

NEON-TUBE LIGHTS GIVE
HOMES ILLUMINATION
Neon-tube lighting, which hereto,
fore has been confined to signs
and decorations, is now being del
veoped for homes and offices be
cause, aside from its economy of
operation, it possesses a softness
not found in other forms of il
lumination, says Popular Mechan
ics Magazine. Georges Claude,
noted French engineer, has made
a light for interior use that op. |
erates directly from low-voltage I
house current like an ordinary ^
incandescent bulb.
It consists of a coiled glass tub
ing containnig a combination of
rare gases and is about the size
of the usual light bulb. It can be
placed in the ceiling, on wall
brackets or in table or floor lamps,
and the specially prepared tubing;
together with the rare gases pro
duces only the beneficial ultra
violet rays, the shorter and harm
ful ones being entriely eliminated.
