Husband Persuaded Her to take Kruschen By following her husband’s advice, this woman made a tremendous im­ provement in her appearance—she actually took off 32 lbs. of her ex­ cess fat. Telling of her experience, she writes:— “A year ago I was troubled with rheumatism, nervousness and other ■complaints. And I got so fat that I was ashamed of my figure. I was persuaded by my husband to take Kruschen Salts. Before I began, I weighed 161 lbs. After taking Krus­ chen for a short time the rheumatism was less painful, my nerves got stronger, and my step lighter. Then I knew that Kruschen was doing me good, so I persevered with it and got my weight down to 129 Tbs., a reduction of 32 lbs. of unwanted fat. I am not boasting when I say that I feel younger and more active, have a much better figure, and am healthier than 1 have been for years.”—(Mrs.) J. S.

Hydro has always obtained its power supplies from whatever source has, from time to time, been determined to be most economical. In the earlier years of Sir Adam Beck’s administration, 98% of the power dis­ tributed to Hydro municipalities was purchased from private sources. Then it became economical to build or acquire generating stations. At the present time Hydro owns forty power-producing plants. Power demands must be provided for—years in advance. The Commission was prevented, by international and other circumstances, from further development of Ontario’s large power resources on the Niagara, St. Lawrence and Ottawa rivers. The only economical course left was to purchase — as the Commission did — low-cost power from available sources. The following table sets forth the growth of your great Hydro undertaking through the years: Growth of Municipalities and Consumers Served and Electric Power Generated and Purchased Period J Average Number of Junicipalities Consumers Peak Demand All Systems Power Generated Power Purchased Horsepower Per Cent.Horsepower Per Cent. 1910 to 1914 Incl.45 77,853 91,338 1,863 2 89,475 98 1915 to 1919 Incl.205 175,702 325,046 242,634 75 82,412 25 1920 to 1924 Incl.345 343,280 769,952 726,867 94 43,085 6 1925 to 1929 Incl.528 486,521 1,163,744 960,193 82.5 203,551 17.5 1930 to 1933 Incl.728 603,880 1,514,040 974,084 64.3 539,956 35.7 It is the considered opinion of this Association that Hydro has pursued a cautious, business-' like, and far-sighted policy in the purchase of supplementary power and that present power reserves are not excessive. The general policy of the Commission respecting purchased power has been initiated with the approval of the municipalities and endorsed by the Hydro associations. These Hydro municipalities know the power requirements, and are obligated to supply the ever-growing demand for low-cost Hydro service in their respective districts.
