Electricity for Lighting Is only expensive to people who are wasteful and careless. To you, who are naturally careful, it does not come high. It is economical because it can be quickly turned off wnen not needed. With gas or kerosene there is the temptation to let lifrht burn when not needed to save bother of lighting and adjusting. In some homes the electric light bills amount to only one or two dollars per month, xou can probably get some kind of artificial light for less money than electric light, but does It save you anvthlng when it limits op portunities for work and recreation ruins your eyesight smokes your walls mars deoorationr and increases household work. You oould probably save a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals butitwouldnt be economy. It is not so much what you save, but how you save that counts. WILLAMETTE VALLEY CO.
