Even the lights by which you work and play would be snuffed out. Yet the great service rendered by the Light and Pow er Company is too often forgotten. It has become so much a part of our everyday life that it is taken for grant ed. Only on the rare occasions when something goes wrong does the Light and Power Company receive even a passing thought; and that thought is perforce a damning one. In the light of actual facts, the Light and Power Com pany takes on an entirely different aspect. Its welfare and the welfare of the community as a whole are one and inseparable. The extent and character of the service it renders influences to a considerable degree the establish ment of new industries. And the more widely that ser vice is used, the cleaner and brighter the community will become, for electrical power is clean power. Literary Digest. Fn adt. L.
