The Brussels Post, 1970-01-15, Page 2When this house was built it was
hard to imagine ail the wonderful
ways in which electricity would
be serving us today. That's why
the wiring in so many older
homes just isn't adequate for
today's needs.
There are many signs. Fuses.
blowing. Lights dimming. Appli
ances performing sluggishly..
Cluttered extension cords. INot
enough outlets.
So, if you're planning to mod-
ernize your home, think first of
the wiring, Have a qualified elec-
trical contractor check it. You'll
be surprised at how easily and
inexpensively it can be updated.
Or just ask your Hydro.
