the tablet, so that the weight of the tablet tends
to pull the tablet automatically down into a dis-
charge position, the tablet being retained on the
slant by tbe internal face of the guide, until the
tablet is rotated in line with the delivery aprrture,
then the r""istance of the outside guide IS removed
and the weight of the tablet automatically pulls
the tablet down into the delivery position.

)'ecord according to Al S. Douglis. Al re-
ports, "We've been getting a lot of .tele-
f!;rams of late ordering more and more of
our new coun ter games. But, of all the
telegrams that we have been receiving we
take our hats off to Mac Mohr of Los An-
f!;eles, California, who has wired us as many
as ten time per day for shipments_
"Mac is actually burning up the wires
to get more of our Heads or Tails, Jiffy
and Ex-Ray token payout counter games.
He has instructed us to keep shipping every
day. Yet, every day more wires come in
increasing his order. We don't know the
maf!;ic that Mac's using, but there is - no
doubt of the magic power that our new
counter games have over players for they
are getting more profits than any other
counter games we have ever had.
"This," Al says, " is the kind of wire
that convinces any manufacturer that he
has the best possible moneymaker that the
operators could buy. Mac Mohr is cer-
tainly a champion telegram man and also
a champion alesman."
