Dear E d ito r:
The Oregon game com m ission

Gilmore soys about electric living,..
' 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.
