Our town
has heroes, too
Over at Thistle Ridge they're
always boasting about their lo
cal heroes-ancestors in the Rev
olutionary War, congressmen,
and an artist with pictures in the
Metropolitan Museum.
Well, we've got our local he
roes, too . . .
There was old Doc Turner,
who fought for years against the
intolerance and bigotry that
kept children from being vacci
nated in our county.
And Deacon Follensby, who
fought for free pews in the
churches; Jess Hackney, who
campaigned fcr teaching hon
est history in schools; Wedd
Towers, who fought the en
croachment of Prohibition in
our county and persuaded folks
they wanted tol erance and mod
eration in place of a return to
lawlessness.
You won't find monuments to
these folks. But from where I
sit, they're heroes in a cause
that's pretty sacred in our town:
the cause of freedom, tolerance,
and human dignity.

ERE'S a simple diagram to show how PP&L's "All-Purpose"
Rate works to your great advantage especially if you are one
of the thousands who are just waiting for all the new electrical
comforts and conveniences to become available again.
First, there's a new low rate for your first 125 KWH. It provides
an average saving equivalent to one month's free service every year.
Second, the next 125 KWH you use enough to run an electric
range, for instance is only iy2c per KWH now, anywhere on
the PP&L system.
AND THEN comes the big-value quantity-discount rate of
only 6710c per KWH for the next 600 KWH! That brings you'
up to about all the electricity a well-equipped home or farm
needs to operate its electrical appliances range, water heater,
refrigerator, home freezer, radios, small appliances, domestic water
system, and plenty of good light for all the family.
That's why we call it our "ALL-PURPOSE" rate. It covers
practically everything you can think ofl
The new postwar electrical appliances will be at your dealer's
soon. Watch his store windows and be ready to make full use
of this amazing new ratel
