® The familiar Hydro towers, striding across the
countryside, are symbolic of a great public enterprise
that hascontributed much to thedevelopment of Ontario.
Along the transmission lines, carried by these towers,
flows the power that lightens the way in many thousands
of homes, industries and farms.
Hydro power is accessible. It reaches out across the
miles to far off city, town or farm . . . ready to serve
at the flip of a switch.
Hydro power is flexible. It turns the wheels of our
factories, mills and mines. It weaves our cloth, grinds
our grain, milks our cows, pumps our water. It lifts our
elevators, washes our clothes, refrigerates and cooks
our food. It lights bur homes, runs our radios. Day
and night it serves our needs, in hundreds of
different ways.
Hydro power is dependable. Well-equipped
emergency crews and repair equipment stand by day
and night ready to keep power flowing at all times.
Hydro power is economical. Through the years it
is one factor, essential to our everyday living, that has
been consistently reduced in price.
Hydro serves the people in thousands of ways. It
brings them comfort, ease and convenience. Yet,
Hydro's contribution to the welfare of the people, up
to now, is but a preview of the promise which the
electrical world holds for tomorrow. Since war began,
Hydro power has been, and will be, available.
wherever and whenever it is required by Ontario’s
war industries. When peace comes, electricity
supplied by Hydro will perform services that are
certain to contribute much toward creating new and
finer standards of living. This indispensible element,
in out everyday life, lightens the Way in everything
we do.
