If Your Neighbor Has
Electric Light
and you have not, just step into his houso
some evening after dark and compare its light
with your own. Study each point of conve
.nience, cleanliness, clearness, beauty carefully,
and then figure out for yourself if it would
not pay you well to have your house wired
for electric light at once.
Elcctnc light today is cheaper and better than
ever before, since the General Electric Com
pany placed its MAZDA lamp on the mar
ket. We have arranged to supply our cus
tomers with the G.E. MAZDA lamps on very
favorable terms. These lamps give two to
three times as much light as other lamps
using the same current.
If your house is located on nny of our dis
tributing lines wo shall bo glad to advise you
about naving it wired and will give you
more facts about tho efficient electric lighting
of your home.
