Electricity Costs Money
Ye«, electricity doe« co«t money. It costs to wire.
Equipment and appliances cost money.
But what real material benefits does one get in
this life without cost? It’s the thing that costs
that we work hardest for and that we appreciate
the most, and it is usually the thing that brings
us the most satisfaction and profit.
Why do

money.
But in addition to their cost we think of giving
our children a better chance, of biting down on
a solid tooth, of saving in horse feed and time
—the pleasure of possession and care. We also
think of the added profits that may come from
our stepped-up activities.
Yes, electricity costs, but compared to the results
it costs very little. Get your pencil and figure
how much it would cost to do the many things
electricity does in some other way and you will
be surprised how little it costs to do so much.
