Earl A. Hooks
Still a good buy...
all over the house.
But, conserve electricity
and save money.
Forty or fifty years ago, the
electric bill was most often
referred to as “the light bill." In
thousands of homes, Mr
Edison's illuminating invention
was not the only electrically
operated device in use, but
people associated its benefits
with their costs for electricity
Today, higher costs for electricity
seem to overshadow the many
benefits of electricity.
The majority of American homes
now have at least 14 different
electric appliances, in addition to
lighting: radio, television,
refrigerator, vacuum cleaner,
clothes washer, iron, toaster,
coffeemaker, mixer, range,
trypan, bed coverings, can
opener and some type of air
conditioner
Whether you have 14 or 40
electric appliances, we believe
that if you will compare their
benefits with your costs of
operating them, you'll agree that
electricity is still a good buy
all over the house.
