NOTICE- It seems to me that every day in the week has become ironing
day in Maurice and therefore I kindly ask my patrons to get out of that
habit. It almost compels me to run the engine continually and yet there is
not load enough to do that and still too much for the battery. I run the
engine on Monday and Tuesday for that purpose and unless this request is
complied with I shall be compelled to shut off the day current from the
residence district or raise the rate. Please remember that you pay less for
current here than other people do in towns three or four times larger than
this town. Monday and Tuesday are washing and ironing days. Please bear this
in mind. Henry DeJong
