True, not everyone lived in poverty equal to his, but no one, not even the richest people, had the comfort and convenience of electric living that low cost elec tricity brings to all today. Lincoln studied by the light of a log fire. Today's children may have their own I E S study lamps, scientifically designed to prevent eye strain. Adults, too, may easily enjoy the benefits of Better Light for Better Sight. The same log fire that provided light provided the heat for cooling In the Lincoln log cabin. Today's kitchens use automatic electric ranges for cooking, and protect the family foodstuffs in an electric refrigerator. Lincoln's mother died young, worn out with the drudgery of existence. Today's young mothers have every electrical aid to male home making easy and pleasant, such as washers, ironers, vacuum cleaners, and dozens of handy appliances. , If your home is not completely equipped for electric living, you owe it to yourself and your family to find oul how easily you may acquire all the modern electrical aids to happy living.

A 1 eat ure entertainment lor the evening which marked the in termission period was a demonstra tion of nas decontamination. J Hir ing the dance the couples were suddenly startled by the shrill blasts or a siren announcing an ait raid. Lights were immediately ex tinguished and the dancers were ordered to clear the floor. Out of the darkness came several loud exnlosions accompanied by much smoke indicating that the air raiders bad made u "direct hit" on the ar mory and the ball was sprayed with liquid "mustard gas." A decon tamination squad then entered, at tired in gas proof masks and rub ber clothing and decontaminated the missed area with chloride of lime, making the "armory safe for dancing" once more.
