know him better. His name is Hydro.
It is he who, while you slept, kept the motor humming on the blower or oil heater, so that
you awoke to a warm comfortable house. It is he who makes the toast—cooks the meals—
bakes the cakes—runs the vacuum cleaner, the washer and the ironer.
And what'a friend when you settle down in your favorite chair at night to read or sew under
proper light, with your radio to bring the best in entertainment ! You retire in security,
knowing that should emergency strike, he can be summoned instantly—Lights! Telephone!
What other service can you buy at such low cost, that does so
much ? And while the price of practically everything we buy has
steadily advanced during the past two years, the Hydro has, and
is, steadily lowering the cost of electricity to you. In addition,
every effort is being made to extend the benefits of Hydro, every
where in the Province of Ontario.
As a partner in this great enterprise, you should take a keen
interest in everything that pertains to Hydro, and its efforts to
lower power costs still further.
