The following resolution was passed

It is economical because’it can be quickly turned off when not
needed. With gas or kerosene there is the temptation to let light
burn, when not needed, to save bother of lighting and adjusting.
In some homes the electric light bill amounts to only about $2 per
month. You can probably get some kind of artificial light for less
money than electric light, but does it save you anything when it
limits opportunities for work and recreation, ruins your eyesight,
smokes your walls, mars decorationu and increases household work.
You can probably save a dollar tomorrow by going without your
meals, but it wouldn’t be economy. It is not so much what you
save, but how you save, that counts. We are always ready to ex
plain the “ins and outs” of the lighting proposition to you. Call
on us or phone to us. We are never too busy to talk business.
