The use of electricity has. become so universal and so accustomed are we to its applications that we are-inclined
to just take it for granted. . We are seldom deprived of it and then: only for a few seconds, or at most a few min
utes, so most of us do not realize how dependcnfon it we have become. . v;-.
But try to imagine going about your usual daily affairs without it. Nearly the .first thing you do in the
morning is to press the button of an1 electric switch. Part of your breakfast is probably prepared by electricity.
If you walk to your work and do.not have to- start before daylight you can probably reach your destination with
out using electricity. If you drive a car, electricity charged the batteries which starts it. When you arrive at your
office or shop or store you begin to depend on electricity to take you through your day's work safely, efficiently
and profitably. ' " .

Your home is kept 'clean and pleasant by the help of electricity, ;your children use it at school, your groceryour '''
butcher, your clothier, your laundryman. everyone from whom vou pet vour nerwitfp anA invumoo um
ply your wants. Your supply of food, fuel and clothing, your health, safety and pleasure have become so depen-
- dent upon the use of electricity that if you were deprived of it for a single day, your wh61e scheme of things would
be thrown out of gear. '.;,, ?r 1 . ," ,.,..

Employes of your Power Company have Good Service and foremost in their minds at all times There
may be rare exceptions, and being human, they all will make mistakes at times, but an employe of any power com.
pany who does not think of .his work in terms of Good Service, is out of place and will not last long Plant men
water tenders, linemen, meter readers, clerks, superintendents, officers, all put Good Service ahead of evervthW
if they know their business and succeed at it. .
A fair price for its product enables your Power Company to pay for efficient employes; to keep its machinery
and equipment in proper repair so that it can keep its service continuous, safe and up to standard : to make avail
able the necessary capital for additions and betterments as they are needed. A fair price means a iust and reason
; able one for the company, and for -you. -'V ' ' ' ' .' f . . .

directly orindnx-ctly, ask us, about it. We try to give you the service you are entitled to and we want to know
it if wc fail in any particular. . . , '
