"We've been getting a 'Baker's
Dozen' from PP&L since 1910"
says Edward C. Pease, Pres. and Algn,
Department Store, The Dalles, Oregon
"Ever since Pacific Power & Light Company
came to The Dalles 35 years ago, we have
been getting more electricity for less money
each year, and, in addition to that, the extra
services that help us use it to the best ad
vantage. For instance, when we installed com
plete new lighting fixtures to improve our
store, a PP&L lighting expert helped us figure
our requirements and helped us select store
lights that are giving us far more light for less
money. But more important still is PP&Is
35-year record of continuously reducing the
price of electricity through good business
management. In the past fifteen years alone,
the cost of lighting our store has been reduced
nearly one-third.'
The Edward C. Pease Co., Inc., department store is one
of the oldest mercantile establishments east of the Cas
cades. Mr. Pease has been a resident of The Dalles and
in the mercantile business since 1884. One of the first
users of electricity in The Dalles, Mr. Pease tells of the
early days when his store was lighted with coal oil lamps,
and when The Dalles was a shipping point and trading
center for all the central Oregon country as far south
as Lakeview; when ten-horse teams hauled wool to The
Dalles for shipment by rail or boat, and returned to
the inland country with wagonloads of groceries and
supplies, often taking a month for the round trip. Mr.
Pease has a well-electrified home in The Dalles now,
but says his light bill is one of the smallest items of
household expense.
