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 be- cause it relieves the housewife of so much of the drudg- ery 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.
