NOW you can have your foundry work '‘Soft Water Washed”
We liavc just added to our equipment at great expense a “Permulit" Water Softening Filter a wonderful apparatus that takes our hard local water and makes it softer than the softest rain water in order that you may have a higher grade of laundry work than you have ever known before. From now on, we will use this “rain soft” water exclusively in all our processes which means that our customers will get a grade of work that no laundry using hard water can equal. . . This soft water washing means—lighter handling of all laundry work; longer life to shirts, collars and cuffs; linens sweet, fresh and snow white; flannels clean, soft and fluffy; laces and lingerie preserved; comfort, cleanliness, satisfaction.
Phone us to call for a trial bundle, to be washed “the soft water way.” You’ll
see the difference.

which it serves.
A RADICAL CHANGE Thi has not always been true. The vast majority of the telephone empanie- operating today were originally organized a commercial en-ternri-es. While their business was functional, l.iey operated under any commercial laws an.l ethics. They could charge much or little ten theii ■eivice, deny or give it away almost as they pleased. There was no one to -; y nay: it wa. their business, to manage and operate as they wished, object only in some case- to minor municipal restrictions. The advent of federal and state regulation of public utilities, through ervi-e commission-, a few years ago, completely changed the status of telephone companies. While their business remains the same, they are , iigi i| about with regulatory laws wholly different from those governing < • rninercial and industrial enterprise-. The public now says to a telephone company what it may or may not do. • No longer can a company issue -ecurities at will, or charge a rate for -ervice that is unjust or unreasonable, or earn more than a fair return upon the property used and useful in the conduct of its bu-iness, or profit off of the service of its employees. It- business is to furnish telephone ervice at a cost which includes only reasonable operating expenses, p a onalde depreciation, and a reasonable return on the fair value of its property. Beyond this it cannot go. Telephone Talk No. 4 Tomorrow ( Ii ooncastle Telephone Company, Mux F. Hosea, Manager.
