That The County and Vicinity
Will Go Forward
As another year has gone by, the light and power indus­
try has completed its forty-seventh year of service to the people
I
of the United States.
I

Looking backward in 1882, when the first central gen­
erating station was placed in operation, the industry has some
I
I
measure of pride in its accomplishments during these compar­
atively few years. The cost of the finest artificial lighting the
world has ever seen is the most unimportant item in the house­
hold budget. Drudgery is no longer jiecessary in the home. The
woikers in our great industries are no longer manual laborers;
they are directors of power. The railroads, the street railways,
the telephone, the telegraph, the radio—all acknowledge their
debt to electricity.
These have been years of constant striving to improve
and extend the service and at the same time lower the cost to
the consumer. Not a little of the success which has crowned
these efforts has been due to the splendid cooperation of the
American public.
No organization is more interested in the welfare of
that community in which it is located, than a light and power
company. If the business of the community is prosperous, we
are prosperous. If prosperity is lacking, we are among the first
to feel it.
The electric light and power industry representatives as­
sured President Hoover that its program of improvements and
extensions for this year is bigger than that of any previous
year. It believes that the commerce and industry of the United
States will march steadily forward.

We are confident that a prosperous year
is in store for Vernonia in 1930
