ELECTRICAL
REDDY says . . ..
"Let's Go Modern -- It's Really Cheaper"
The progressive family that today is using electricity for refrigeration, for cooking, and for water heating is not only enjoying the manifold advantages of these automatic home services, but they are actually saving money. They are living better, more comfortably, without the drudgery, labor and worry that attend the old methods-they are actually LIVING BETTER for LESS.
It costs the average family less per day than the cost of a single loaf of bread to cook electrically. Automatic hot water service through an electric automatic water heater is available also to the average family for less than the price of a package of cigarettes per day.
The cost of electric automatic refrigeration to the average family is about the cost of a package of chewing gum per day.
Electric refrigeration, electric ranges, electric water heaters-any of these appliances of the makes you are likely to desire may be had on terms to fit your budget. Easy to buy- inexpensive to operate-and yet they bring indescribable comfort and freedom from work and worry.

Please! Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time It Is Loaned
The practice of lending your City Directory, in a great measure, is re-, sponsible for the increasing cost of Directory Service.
The reason is :-
There is a definite cost involved in the making of the DIRECTORY of Your City.
THIS COST MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE SUBSCRIBERS-BE THEY ONE-OR BE THEY 1000.
If there were but ONE SUBSCRIBER to the CITY DIRECTORY-THE ONE SUBSCRIBER would of necessity have to absorb THE WHOLE COST. If there were 100 SUBSCRIBERS each one would have to absorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
If there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number of subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each.
And
It is also obvious that the LESSER the number of subscribers-the GREATER the cost to each.
Every time you loan your City Directory the LESS NECESSITY THERE IS FOR THE BORROWER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE.
MORE BORROWERS result in FEWER SUBSCRIBERS which means IN- CREASED COST.
