Influence exerted in be- half of the ex-superintendent, who | announced a few days ago that he ™ fould not decline to resume his for- Se employment, does not appear to have produced the desired result and nothing observable in official circles indicates an intention to return to the status quo. .The situation is tha McCalman ceased to be state high- superintendent April 1, and that. iy by the commission in selecting @ successor is not caused by a dis- position to make arrdngements where- under the former superintendent ‘would be employed, but by the sound business judgment that makes em- ployment of a successor inadvisable until such time as the commission is in possession of information regard: ing its financial resources.

Theater =CL Hot Water Comfort jim —& Every Day and Night Can you imagine a hot water supply so con- venient, so dependable, so absolutely free from bother—that any time—every time— you open a faucet you can enjoy oceans, of piping-hot water? This is exactly the service a. Humplire Automatic Gas Water Heater gives you. It sounds like a flight of the imagination to say that ee can have all the hot water needed, whenever needed, by simply turning afaucet. But it is a reality made possible by this highly perfected modern invention, which has banished all the limitations and bother of old-style water-heating methods. If you have a Humphrey all you need do is to open a hot-water faucet in any part of the Inuse. The water pressure automatically turns on gas and lights the powerful burners. Fresh hot water rushes to you imme- diately through copper heating coils, and continues to flow in a full-size, swift stream os long as the faucet is . Supply is not limited to the capacity of a tank. Nor is it stale, re-heated tank water. A perfected ther: mostat controls burners. When the faucet is closed as is shut off automatically. The Humphrey never forgets to stop expense. Heats only water required at the time. No gas is wasted. About 10 gallons of steaming-hot water costs only about one cent. It is cheaper than furnace coils or kitchen tanks. Casper Gas Appliance Co. 119 East First Street Phone 1500 AUTOMATIC GAS WATER HEATET » Tribune circulation books are open to all
