They do not know-) how it is constructed or why one lamp 4s better (than another. The life of an electrie lamp, its economy and durability, depend almost entirely upon the little hair-like filament, or wire, located within the glass bulb, which" glows with light when electricity 1b turned on.

No matter how nicely the globe and base are made, no matter what care is taken in the assembly of the various parts, the life of the lamp and its usefulness depend upon 'thsj filament. If an old fashioned carbon filament la used the light will be of poor yellowish quality and -the-cost tor current will be high. This is because the filament is made of carbonized eellulose-whlch lsrsrvegeta.ble paste. Carbon lampa are now out of date, beingfeplaced- ey-tte-tnetaL filar ment tungsten lamp, which give a better light for less cost But, it the pressed-filament tungsten lamp IB used the filament becomes brittle with use and is very apt to break into small pieces. The lamp Is fragile because the tiny wire filament is made of pulverized tungsten pressed into wire-like shape.

The drawn wire tungsten filaments are stronger add will last longer. The tungsten metal Is drawn into fine wire from which the, filaments are' made. This wire is really very strong, for Its size, being of less diameter than a hair, but ft has the tensile strength of piano steel. Strange as It may there are thousands of people who do not know that incandescent lamps can be obtained in almost any candle-power desired. They accept whatever is given them and pay whatever is asked without a question.

More than, half the time a complaint for excessive cost of electric lighting is traceable direct to lamps of too high candle-power for the light required. That cost mounts up tn direct ratio with the Increase of candle-power Is shown by the fact that an eight candle-power tungsten lamp will burn for 100 hrs. for a total cost of but ten cents, where the ratio Is 10 cents a kilowatt. A twenty candle-power lamp on the same circuit would only burn 40 hrs. for ten cents and a thirty-two candle-power lamp, but 25 hrs.

With proper glass shades and reflectors to direct the light where It is needed, lamps of small candle power can be used with better light effect than those of high candle power where the light is misdirected, absorbed and wasted. Mrs. George Mulkey returned home last evening from a brief isit with friends in Albany. PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT. Recently the Western Union Tele-gropth Company announced to its employes a provisional pension plan guaranteeing a certain income to faithful employes having a certain term of service.

President Vail has just Issued an additional announcement to the effect that commencing January 1913, a permanent plan will be inaugurated providing not only for pensions, but also extending to all employes benefits covering sickness and disability from accident, and in addition thereto, a life insurance for all employes having relatives de pendent upon them. In case of death by accident occurring in the performance of work for the company, employes having dependent relatives will receive an insurance in the sum of three years' wages, not in excess of a total amount ot and payable dependent relatives. Employes who have been five years In the company's service will be entitled to insurance against death in varying sums not exceeding $2,000, such insurance to be paid to dependent relatives. The disability insurance covers accidental injury In the performance of work for the company, or disability due to sickness or injury during employment and while not in the performance of work for the company, and the amounts to be paid in case of accident and sickness may be received by employes who have- been in the service from two years upward, varying between full pay for four weeks and half pay for nine weeks, which applies to the employes who have been in the service two and five years, up to full pay for thirteen weeks and half pay until able to earn a livelihood, not exceeding, in the caste of. accident, six years in all.

The pension benefits apply to male employes sixty years of age. and female employes fifty-five years of who have been twenty or more years In the service, but for those employes who have been twenty-five years or more in the company employ, the pension Is made applicable to male employes of fifty-five years or female employes fifty years of age. Any employe who has been in the company's service thirty or more years may re ceive pension benefits. President Vail first made mention of the pension plan last March, that being the first step in the effort of the Western Union company to give expression of the company's appreciation of loyal and efficient service of employes, and the above designated new plan secures to the 30,000 em ployes of this company from January 1st, next, a much more comprehen- alve And lfhornl trrnnmimitnt In gard to benefits than originally an nounced, and ne that will greatly enhance the value of employment with this company. A week from next Sunday night, Coach Dolan, accompanied by sev enteen chosen men, will board the Albany for California.

They will' arrive in Loe Angeles Wednesday morning, and will work out that afternoon. Thursday afternoon, Thanksgiving Day, they meet Occidental College for the last game of the season. Occidental baa not been defeated thl season. Last Saturday they bung It on to Wnlttier College 2 8" to 17. and next Saturday they meet Pomona for the championship ot Southern California.

The Bearer team will have to fight for everything they get from the Qxy bunch. Although Dolan will bave a slight advantage in weight, Coach Pi-i pal of the southern college believes, that: his team is enough faster than! the O. A. bunch to more than make up for this lack of beef. In Foster and McClung, he has two wonderful halves, who are demons in.

an open, field. Dill at full weighs 180 pounds: and excells at the line-plunging, game. At quarter, Pipal will use Seay, a veteran of three, year, who Is known as a fast and heady player. The Oxy supporters are looking to this back-field to pile up ft winning score against the Beavers. After having played all season in the rain and.

mud, the O. A. C. team will be under a handicap should the Ozy game be staged on a bright, hot afternoon, with a fast dry gridiron. The Lob Angeles boys will be accustomed to such weather, while the vis-! itors will undoubtedly feel the effects of the beat sorely.

Coach Dolan baa not yet definitely decided which members of the squad will be of the most value to him Thanksgiving Day. There will be six substitutes taken on the trip, in addition to the first string. Dewey and Reynolds will probably both go. Ra's-mussen and Riahardson will reinforce the line, and McKenzle, Laythe and Larsen will fill out in the front rank. A full quota ot substitute would be desirable because of the unfavorable weather conditions liable to be encountered, but Coach Dolan will have to do the best he can with six, as seventeen men and the coach is all that the contract provides for.

TAKE WARNING Albany Democrat: That one Linn county farmer has lost $2000 thru the purchase of some worthless mall order Btock during the past thirty days and that a representative of the same firm is now touring the Willamette valley for the purpose of placing more of the same stock among the farmers, was the statement made this morning by one of the officers of the First National Bank of this city. The salesman- takes the farmers' note and Immediately has the same discounted at the bank for cash. The bank is an innocent purchaser and the farmer baa no recourse. The First National Bank urges that people of Linn county make a care-1 ful investigation of propositions of this character before investing their money.

Walts officiated at the service and paid the excellent woman a glow a lutrut of her life is offered for publication: Keziah Emily Henderson wag bora in Jackson county, Missouri, on the 11th da Ot May.

1843. When t. nr rrlniif i in nwtnr years of age, with her father's family, she made the long, weary journey with an emigrant train across the plains to Oregon, arriving. late in Vv tober, 1853, in the village or MarysT vine mow uorvaiusi tn Benton county. Soon afterward her father located his donation land claim about miles west of Philomath, the place now being familiarly known as Key's Hill.

Journeying in the same train across the plains was a stalwart young man twenty year, of age Winfield 8. Gibbs, who first stopped to work la the Cascade mountains and a little later went to the mines In California. He soon returned to Oregon and in 1855 enlisted in the Rogue River In dian war under Colonel John After the war was over he returned to Benton county and on August 16, 1863, at her father's home near Phi- lomath, he was united in marriage to the subject or this sketch. To this union was born nine chil dren, all of whom survive her. They are: Mrs, T.

M. Coon, of Bellfountain, Mrs. F. R. Baumgartner, of Linn county Mrs.

G. W. Coon, of Corvallis, Route Marrow Gibbs, ot Yamhill county; Laura Fletchall. of Yamhill county; Cato Gibbs, of Pe oria, Linn county: William Gibbs. Oak Point, Wash; Permit Gibbs, Oswego, and Mrs.

Corda Lee, ot Yamhill, Ore. There are also forty-one grandchildren and twelve great-grand children. Now hear a remarkable fact in regard to this family of sixty-two lineal descendants. During almost fifty years of married life, not a death had occurred in the family of dvtvjwn nnHl th. ilii.tli fit .11, nvn Vivian Coon, save the Infant boy of Dora Coon Whitlow, who died last July.

But a -great sorrow came to them last March, when, after an ill ness so brief that it was almost sudden, the wife of William Gibbs died. Most ot these fifty years were spent in Benton county and the Willamette valley. Recently for about six years, the deceased and her husband have made their home at Yamhill. Just six days before her death she was brought to the home of T. M.

Coon at Bellfountain, where she died November 16. 1912. She belonged to a family of six children and is survived by four brothers: Martin, of Lakeview, Ore. Lewis, of Heppner, William and J. P.

Henderson, of Benton county, Ore. When but a little girl she gave her heart to God, and throughout a very )a. '1 1 1 1 Y. J- auu i una voted to his cause. Small of stature, she was always alert and active, enjoying the best of health and a happy, hopeful disposition.

She was greatly beloved by her friends, who were many, and adored by her husband and In raising her family she was gentle but very firm, insisting upon the right so strongly that unquestioned and prompt obedience became the rule. The recent church membership of herself and husband has been that of the M. E. Church, South. About two years ago, while attending evangelistic meetings with her husband, she fell, breaking her arm and giving her system such a shock that she has never been well since, and during the last year she had been a great aufferer from 'an trouble.

With characteristic fortitude, sustained by an unfaltering trust, she endured as seeing Hint who is Invisible, and in a quiet evening she went away from us, to be forever with the Lord. "And 1 heard a voice from heaven saying unto me: Wrffe, blessed are the dead which die in the Lord; from henceforth yea salth the Spirit that they may rest from their labors; and their works da-follow them."

LJLW. Morgan; manager for the Benton County GrowersTAssociatiott since Its organization about a year ago, has resigned from the position and George H. Tinker, grower and loyal supporter of the association, has been named' as his successor. The position Is one that requires time and energy. Mr.

Morgan has given of both unstintedly, so generously, in fact', that he has neglected personal and private business to his, extremriMsadvantage. During the early life, of the association, it has not paid and can not be expected to pay, a salary worth while, and good men can not be reasonably expected continue for aye hen.ee Mr. Morgan's retirement. The executive committee of the Growers' Assocation pays tribute to Hr. Morgan and this morning, when seen In reference to his resignation, stated they and the Board of Directors were all exceedingly sorry to lose Mr.

Morgan's services, but realised that it would be most unreasonable to expect him to continue to serve the Assecation at such a continued financial loss. They regret also that the financial condition of the association renders them powerless to make such an arrangement with Morgan for the coming season, as would justify htm to continue. These gentlemen are most emphatic in their praise of the wholesome public spirit manifested by Mr. in this enterprise. He has devoted practically all of his time to the work, sacrificing nearly ail of his business Interests, so-great have been the demands upon him.

He through it all, been uniformly courteous, tactful In smoothing over the rough places AjLtareful of the interests of the many members of the Association. Mr, Morgan retires with the high esteem of the Directors and the sincere thanks and best wishes ot the Association. The New Man. George H. who has con sented to assume the burden Mr.

Mor gan has dropped, Is thoroughly capable In every aense of the word and has a keen personal interest in the success of the Association and the cannery. He came to' Corvallla from Seattle about fifteen months ago. bought twenty-five acres southwest of the city, and this season sent to the local cannery its largest quantity of products from any one grower. He baa been active in every way in promoting the affairs of the Association and cannery and as general manager will give the institution his most energetic service. Mr.

Tinker brings to his work a special ability that should make for great things as long as he finds It possible to give his efforts 'to this cause. By profession he is a mechanical engineer, and his special work has been along the line of Installing cost-saving apparatus in great manufacturing institutions. For eight years he was superintendent of the AmericanSugar Company's refinery at New Orleans, the largest in the world, and employing 1500 men. Following his he spent some time with the Fairbanks-Morse Co. installing waterworks plants throughout the middle west, and then tor seven years was chief engineer on irrigation works tor rice mills In Louisiana.

He constructed the famous Mermentau dam that shuts the ocean from great rice fields In Louisiana, and personally raised $75,000 of the money necessary to build that work. Following this Mr. Tinker came to Seattle to cast his lot with the aggressive west. He became chief engineer for the largest machinery concern on the coast and during several years built complete power plants, and installed modern machinery and cost-reducing machinery in coal mines. He finally became president of this company, and then his nervous system broke down.

He retired and finally. In search for an abiding place, came to Benton county and Corvallla and bought the farm. He found here an admirable climate and good opportunity, and while regaining his normal energy, is educating his children at O. A. C.

and the city schools. Mr. Tinker has already become well known aa a gentleman of excellent ideas, enthusiasm and much "ability, and there is little doubt that hia service for the association will prove very valuable. He has taken up the work already, and during the winter will do all that Is possible to organise the situation for a successful year's work in 1913. Corvallis Gazette-Times.

J. W. MORGAN THANKS PUBLIC AND BOOSTS FOE THE NEW INDUSTRY. Gazette-Times: Kindly permit ms, through the columns ot your paper, to express to the members of the Benton County Growers Association, the public and the press, my very deep appreciation of the support they have given me this season ia launching the Nor does this credit stop here, members of the executive committee and others have been unceasing in their efforts. The railroads, through their local representatives, George O'Connor and C.

M. Andrews, deserve a great deal of praise for their help, It is with the keenest regret that. I feel It necessary to give up the work, but feel that I have given about as much of my time at the small salary received, as it is possible for me to give. I trust that my successor, Mr. George H.

Tinker, who has been such a hard worker and ardent supporter, will nave as much co-operation from the public as has been given me. While from the start my faith has been strong in the possibilities of just such an organization as now have, I believe the possibilities far greater than was first anticipated. I trust every citizen of the county will come to the support of this work, and help to raise the small balance that la still needed, and allow this splendid work proceed unhampered. With it well under headway and substantially backed, I am sure we will see splendid advances in real estate values and a greater volume of business. Without it, I am sure there will be a decline of these interests.

Frees Support -If the small grower and Intense fanner exists, it will only be through better markets for hia products, and these must come through the cannery and the protection- It offers the co operation in assembling and marketing the products. It has been dem onstrated beyond a doubt that the present plans are feaaible, And with the help the railroads have now of fered, it is certainly up to the people, It will help the land owner In the advance of the price of his land, the landlord in better rental for his property, the laborer In better wages, and the merchant by an Increased volume of business through the distribution of money. While my future plans are hot fully decided upon, I hope to continue in my first ohosen profession of Insur ance, loans and real estate, and want to say that as long as I am here, I am ever ready to help bring this work to the highest degree of perfection. I feel It unjust to sonclude without mentioning the splendid confidence the grower has placed in this work. Of the hundreds of growers who have deposited thousands of dollars worth of their products with the association in this, its first and experimental year, there was not a single one who voiced a complaint to me or made an unreasonable demand.

I trust the public will rally to this work and give to this community the splendid oppor tunity it so justly deserves. Again thanking the press and public in the splendid support as temporary man ager of this season's work, I beg to remain Yours very truly, J. W. MORGAN. Corvallla Gazette-Times.
