Laighton, Realtor in Seaside, Oregon "AND those emergencies are really some thing. Not only do we have severe winter storms that keep the PP&L boys on their toes, but we have other problems peculiar to vacation spots. “Seaside’s permanent population is about 5500, but during the summer months it becomes Oregon’s second largest city, with a population of 35,000 to 50,000. PP&L must, and does, maintain facilities capable of handling this tremendous seasonal peak. “I remember Seaside as it was 59 years ago, when I moved here with my parents. It was a vacation spot then, but there were only a few scattered houses and limited hotel accommodations. Two to three hun dred vacationists made a record season, and most of them brought tents and spent the entire summer. “Seaside’s early electric system would get over-loaded with only a few hundred 3 5 1110 YEARS Mazda lamp re- places carbon bulb, giving more light per kwh.

Lights would often burn only a cherry red, interruptions were frequent, and oil lamps were standard equip ment in every household. “Ever since PP&L took over here, the company has been a great factor in the steady growth of Seaside, anticipating our electrical needs and supplying dependable service under all kinds of conditions.” • • • • • Mr. Laighton, a native of Astoria, has been a resident of Seaside since 1886. His first job was in the old Logan mill where a steam engine drove the dynamo supplying Seaside’s first electric service—available at first to only a limited number of business houses. After leaving the mill, he drove a horse-drawn stage between Seaside and Arch Cape, the 28 miles constituting a dawn-to-dark trip. With no roads, the route was down the sandy beach, and departure time depended on the tide. While driving stage, Mr. Laighton became convinced of the development possibilities of the coast communities, and in 1908 entered the real estate business. He has taken an important part in the development of both Seaside and Cannon Beach. He served as postmaster at Seaside for a total of 19 years, and served eight years on the city council, including one year as mayor.
