"Hatfield" has been synonymous with

delays in service. To end this confliction
the Hatfield Electric Supply Company
has changed its name, identifying itself
by the names of its two owners.
Here-
after it will be known as Farrell-Argast
Electric Company.
Same Location
There is no other change . . . you will re-
ceive the same courteous attention from
the same loyal personnel, at the same location (southwest corner Meridian and Maryland Streets) and the same attractive prices will prevail.
