The most unfoitunate and fnr lenrhiiu: influence with which tho public bcrvico corporation ib bat tling today is the lack of popular in terest nnd familiarity with the de tails of ;ts business. The industry hui neglected a gieat opportunity in so hnj permit tinj,' the public to re main unthinking of tiio iiuimnte io intionship which exists between the public service corporation nnd evOiy man nnd woman who lives witluii leneh of its linos. The modern electric eompuny is not a ptivnto business enterprise, it is u public influence, u dominant trait in the character of the community, a factor in the daily lifo of every citi zen, which is contributory to his per sonal comfort, his habits and his inn torinl prosperity. And this itlfluenco affects him in a more vital and mul tiphase manner than the service of any other public utility, the railioad, tho telephone, tho telegraph, the water system or tho street railwnj. Not that I mean that any one of tlic-e could bo more easily dispensed with, for each is undeniably esential to our modern scheme of life, but the influ ence of electricity is close akin to the! influence of progress. Tlio railroad, tho telephone, tho tel egraph, the water system and tho street railway must keep npaco with the growth of population nnd givo us bettor, nioio n'ld faster trains, com munication to more distant points, ample file protection for even higher buildings, and more comfortable and convenient city trUnspoitalion ser cc. The gas and electric systems must foige ahead in the same way.j Hut beyond this matter of sening, tho demands of a growiu-r people as i that further utnl constructive iuflu-' ent'o Hint is- ninkiiu elect rio service! tho doniinnnl foicc of tho day. It is entering tho homes of tho people, bringing them clean, healthy, cheer ful light, shorn of labor; tho electric fan to lift thd burden of hot weather, tho washing machine, the electric hon, the vacuum cleaner nnd tho general utility motor to simplify the servant problem nnd relievo tho wo man who docs her own housework; it is offering innumerable other labor economic--, that ure banishing domes tic drudgery. It is bioudcning the mei chant's sphere of influence hy tho distance that his flashing sign and bright windows can ho seen. It is brightening' ti)jljc tin i Ic streets, mak ing them more useful, convenient and far safer to the people and nioio easily and economically policed, its influence is to bring out the people to enjoy tho evening hours in tho open uir while tho brilliant displays of the business center draw tho ciowds from surrounding town and country, with increased business to the mer chant. It quickens tho heait of the city and is awakening long dormant communities to prosperous activity. Tho convenience and economy of elec tric power is cheapening tho inunii facturing processes which menus u quicker turnover and greater civic wealth.
