IOE IO IU1 n NG TALK 11 Number 2 In this age of electricity, the business of supplying electric service for light and power is more intimately bound up with the welfare of a modern city than almost any other enterprise. The Pacific Power & Light Company is so closely identified with the prosperity of this community, that if the community advances, the company must advance with it; if the growth of the community is retarded, this com pany is one of the first to suffer. The Pacific Power & Light Company and its predecessors interested, have made a large capital investment to serve the people of Hood Paver. One of the important points impressed upon this Company when it first came into the local field, was the fact that first class, uninterrupted service could not be rendered unless the Company had high grade generating plants and more than one source of supply to guard against interruptions which are bound to occur; accordingly it set about to perfect its service by constructing a very high-grade transmission line between Hood River and The Dalles, from which point an existing transmission line is connected with the Company's White River plant which has a generating capacity of 3000 horse-power. This connection was the first move in the Company's plans to provide a duplicate source of supply for both Hood River and The Dalles. Having this connection made, the Company is now in a position to reconstruct its Hood River plant, providing relay service for the entire Hood River-Dalles district. It is our purpose in these 4 'Lighting Talks" to give you these facts, be cause we believe that our business is of such public nature that the people are entitled to know all about it. In next week's issue, we shall tell you some thing about our investment, earnings, etc. We believe that when you know and understand these facts, we shall receive perfectly fair treatment at your hands.
