The Neglected Personality of the Central Station
(Hy II. S. Holt, President Montreal
Liyht, Ilent nnd Power Co.; Presi
dent the Royal Datilj of Cunnda.)
The most unfoitunate and fnr
lenrhiiu: influence with which tho
public bcrvico corporation ib bat
tling today is the lack of popular in
terest nnd familiarity with the de
tails of ;ts business. The industry
hui neglected a gieat opportunity in
so hnj permit tinj,' the public to re
main unthinking of tiio iiuimnte io
intionship which exists between the
public service corporation nnd evOiy
man nnd woman who lives witluii
leneh of its linos.
The modern electric eompuny is not
a ptivnto business enterprise, it is u
public influence, u dominant trait in
the character of the community, a
factor in the daily lifo of every citi
zen, which is contributory to his per
sonal comfort, his habits and his inn
torinl prosperity. And this itlfluenco
affects him in a more vital and mul
tiphase manner than the service of
any other public utility, the railioad,
tho telephone, tho telegraph, the
water system or tho street railwnj.
Not that I mean that any one of tlic-e
could bo more easily dispensed with,
for each is undeniably esential to our
modern scheme of life, but the influ
ence of electricity is close akin to the!
influence of progress.
Tlio railroad, tho telephone, tho tel
egraph, the water system and tho
street railway must keep npaco with
the growth of population nnd givo us
bettor, nioio n'ld faster trains, com
munication to more distant points,
ample file protection for even higher
buildings, and more comfortable and
convenient city trUnspoitalion ser
cc. The gas and electric systems
must foige ahead in the same way.j
Hut beyond this matter of sening,
tho demands of a growiu-r people as i
that further utnl constructive iuflu-'
ent'o Hint is- ninkiiu elect rio service!
tho doniinnnl foicc of tho day. It is
entering tho homes of tho people,
bringing them clean, healthy, cheer
ful light, shorn of labor; tho electric
fan to lift thd burden of hot weather,
tho washing machine, the electric
hon, the vacuum cleaner nnd tho
general utility motor to simplify the
servant problem nnd relievo tho wo
man who docs her own housework;
it is offering innumerable other labor
economic--, that ure banishing domes
tic drudgery. It is bioudcning the
mei chant's sphere of influence hy tho
distance that his flashing sign and
bright windows can ho seen. It is
brightening' ti)jljc tin i Ic streets, mak
ing them more useful, convenient and
far safer to the people and nioio
easily and economically policed, its
influence is to bring out the people to
enjoy tho evening hours in tho open
uir while tho brilliant displays of the
business center draw tho ciowds
from surrounding town and country,
with increased business to the mer
chant. It quickens tho heait of the
city and is awakening long dormant
communities to prosperous activity.
Tho convenience and economy of elec
tric power is cheapening tho inunii
facturing processes which menus u
quicker turnover and greater civic
wealth.
