Nothing, except fuss because it takes too long. And that's not only a waste of time, but bad for the disposition. The iight-it-and-wait system isn't the most economical way to have hot water, either. It takes a lot of heat to warm a tanlful of cold water all at once. With an automatic storage type water heater, after the tank is once heated up, it takes less heat to keep the water hot day in and day out than it does to heat a tankful two or three times a day. So an automatic water heater is an economy as well as a convenience, and is well within the reach of every householder. If you own your home, you will be inter ested in our Jeferred payment plan. If you rent, our rental plan is the one for you. 1ht California Oregon Power Company REDDY KILOWATT Your Electrical Servant 1 William Gardner, who ha been foreman at the A. H.
