SELECTED

If you want to live in a kind of a town, Like the kind of a town you like, You need'nt slip your clothes in a grip, And start on a long, long hike. You'll only find what you left behind, For there's nothing that's really new; It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town, It is'nt your town-its You-

There must be more than mere electric current to insure satisfaction.

Electricity is vastly more than a commercial product.

You cannot buy it at the counter in a measure and carry it home to be used as you wish or returned if it is not up to the standard of your expectations.

Electricity is a service that you purchase on faith.

The faith of our customers in our ability and desire to serve them to the last word in electrical efficiency is the great asset that has formed the foundation of our growth and business success.

We prize that faith more than we do our great power plants, and we strive to merit and retain it in the quality of our merchandise as well as in the quality of our service.

When you buy electric appliances of us you may place the same faith in them that thousands place in our ability to serve them. For we sell nothing that does not bear the guaranty of its manufacturer and our own assurance of satisfaction.
