ELECTRICAL
Electricity Is Cheap - --
Use It Freely To Make Your Home Livable.
Electricity makes a home livable not only because it brings brightness and cleanliness and health but because it relieves the housewife of so much of the drudgery of house work that she is able to have more time for recreation and other activities which mean so much for the happiness and comfort of the family.
A wise woman has said that electric service pro- motes a good disposition and that good dispositions are essential to happy homes.
It's worth thinking about anyway. .
And electricity today costs a small fraction of what it cost even a few years ago. 1
