PICKARD District Representative The Model6& Four-Twenty [BaWyless] 1 50 YEARS AGO Several changes in property own ership have taken place during the past week. Mr. Jas. Swinerton has purchased from Mr. Samuel Treble the valuable property on the corner of Main and Wellington Sts. facing the Market Square. Mr. Schram, of Centralia, has purohased from Cap tain Howard the residence near the planning mill formerly owned by Mr. John Ross. Miss Jessie Butcher gave several readings during an entertainment held in Goderich. On Friday last Mr. George Dyei’ was in Mr. Wm, Kitehing’s machine shop, when two men came in. One of the men picked up a revolver which had been brought in to be repaired. Not knowing that the gun was loaded, and while examining it with the muzzle pointing towards Mr. Dyer, the gun went off the bul let lodging in his leg. It was ex tracted by Dr. Lutz. A span of horses belonging to Mr. Robert Cooper, of Usborne, while passing a load of furniture belong ing to Mr. Swarts, on Huron Street, became frightened. They made a sudden spring causing the tongue of the wagon to fall out of the neck- yoke and pulling Mr. Cooper off the wagon. Mr. Cooper escaped with slight injury. On Sunday morning as Mr. D. Braund and • family were going to church the shafts of the vehilcle in which they were riding became de tached' from the conveyance when near the Sauble bridge.

OF course, you want an electric radio (one that operates direct from a light socket, without any extra attachments or batteries)—practically all the sets sold to-day, where current is available, are of this type. And, of course, you want the best set you can buy for the money you have to spend—that’s only natural. Then, consider the Rogers “Four-Twenty”—a new 1929 Model that is out-selling every other electric radio two to one. To be able to get a complete electric radio at $165 is a sensation in itself, but when this is also the best known, the original “Batteryless” set; the one that has five years of perfor mance behind it, the only one with Tubes that are guaranteed „ .. it is almost a miracle in value. Features include: a single illuminated tuning dial, Rogers A/C Tubes throughout (including A/C Power Tube), Automatic Voltage Control, Rogers Output Filter and Phonograph “Plug-in” Jack, genuine Walnut Cabinet with matched butt veneer instrument panel. And the price complete (except Loud Speaker) is only $165.00! If you want a modern batteryless receiver the Rogers “Four- Twenty” is your “money’s most” in the whole field of electric radio. t Ask for a Demonstration and about our Easy Terms •Come in and see this set and compare it critically with any other electric radio sold at prices from $50 to $100 higher. Then you will really appreciate why this is the most sought- after radio on the market to-day, with the factory almost 1,000 sets behind orders actually on hand. W. J. BEER, Main St., Exeter, Ont.
