SHRINERS STILL
WORKING FOR THE
CRIPPLED YOUTH
Service Without '
Waste .gB
Folks do not buy a dozen kilowatt hours of electricity and
then have to throw part of them away because they are wilted
or old.
There arc no leftover or stale portions to electric service.
It is delivered fresh from the producer in fact instantaneously.
An accurate measuring instrument, more 'accurate than a
good watch, located right in your home or place of business,
weighs out exactly what you want and no more.
No need to order-electric service and then wait hours for
its delivery with Ihc possibility of not getting what you or
dered. Just snap the switch and take the exact amount that
you need. A fraction of a cent's worth or unlimited quantity.
Waste and wear attach to almost everything entering into
our daily lives with the exception of public 'utility service.
That is why such service takes so small a part of our living
expense. As compared with other essentials, the nominal cost
of electric service is out of proportion to its real value.

is startling. Perhaps tho

The Ileacock Radiophone is as near perfection
as they can bo made at the present time. 0. M.
Ileacock, who has over IB years experimental ex
perience, personally supervises their construction and
many features that make it so perfect, are his own
