Cheaper Electricity
r
A '70000 horsepower hydro-electric unit recently installed at
Niagara Palls utilizes the same amount of water: as seven
former 5000-horsepower units yet does the work of fourteen
such units.' And it saves 700000 tons of coal yearly for the
nation.
'
As more and still more' uses are found for electricity larger
and more economical generators are. installed. At the power
plant! as well as at the consumer's end important changes and
startling; developments have steadily reduced the cost of
electricity for light power and heat..
And wherever electricity has blazed Its trail in towns aties
industrial centers and rural communities comfort andprogress
have come to stay.
Generating and distributing! electricity concern the technical
student. But electricity's applicatioa in the betterment of
iadustry theprpfossions and bom'ellfe concerns every' edu-
cated person. Cheap electricity msans many startling achleve-
iaonts to4y but countltos ' and1 unbeUeyabto 'poeofWitiee
