Yes, some day these firms which have
offered a specialty part manufacturing

during the Holidays and the trend of ex·

Magnolia state seems to be con tinuin g.
The New Year brought several new
businesses to Mississippi. Foremost was the
E. C. Keathley Co., operators of electric
phonographs and other co in operated de·
vices. They bought all of th e Natchez and
Mississippi machines and some of the Lou·

with the aid of Ham. B.

two major operators in this city. Eidt and
Keathley, and they ure really BIG OPER·
ATOR , as each weighs well over th e 240
pound mark.
Edward Newell, former service manager
of th e Service Novelty Co., is now con·
nected with the Southern Amusement Co.,
distributors of coin operated eq uipment.
A new service hop ha s been opened for
business by George Wilson, who states that
he has more business than he can handle
at the present tim e.
