' I wonder if anyone in town uses electricity in more ways than we do?:’ “Counting up our appliances, we were amazed to find we have 63 electric helpers in our home—and I wouldn’t part with a single one of them. We particularly appreci a te our two refrigerators and freezer. By shopping ahead, our family food hills are reduced and shopping Ls a lot simpler. For the large amount of electricity we use, 59? a day is surely a bargain.” Like Mrs. Gilmore, thousands of Pacific Powerland homemakers are using lots of PP&L electricity these days—more and more all the time! Be sure you have all the electric appliances you need for comfortable and convenient electric living. See your appliance dealer right away. Live better with today’s biggest value—electric service from Pacific Power & Light. 63 59£ ELECTRIC APPLIANCES A DAY The Gilmore family enjoys the use of all these electric appliances: Range Water Heaters—2 Refrigerators—2 Food Freezer f Dryer f Washer Dishwasher Television—2 Radios—5 Ironer Irons—3 Waste Disposer Vacuum Cleaner Food Mixer Oil Burner Electric Blankets - 2 Kitchen Vent Fan Portable Fan Toasters—2 Fry Pons—3 Hot Plate 0 M Food Grinder M Sandwich Grill u ’ Woffle Iron .Heating Pads—2 Sewing Machine Room Heater Lighting Hair Dryer Clocks—4 M Outside Lighting KJ Can Opener M Rechargeable Flashlight MiStereo {¿Record Players—3 .Griddle Pressure Cooker Shavers—2 Popcorn Popper Knife Sharpener cl Food Blender ryj vapo H Vaporizer Barbecue Starter You Live B etter.. .
