0 The time to solve the servant problem once and for all is when you are building
or '`modernizing" your home. 'The greatest modern ,dornestic servant is electricity.
How well and to what 'extent electricity can serve 'you, now and in the future,
depends on how well your uservcsnrs entrance" is designed . how wisely
your home is wired.
Inadequate wiring limits the use of electricity. it leads only to inefficient opera-
tion of lights and appliances. But adequate wiring three wire service to the
house, with proper size circuits in the home and plenty of outlets in every room 4
evercomes these difficulties, and gives you'full use of these.modern servants.
Electrical home appliances increased rapidly in number and variety before the
war. 'They are now reappearing and will continue to multiply. Homes that were
wired only for the needs of 20 years ago should ;low be rewired to suit the wonder-
ful new "electrical servants" to come.
Hydro's law-cost dependable service enables you to use these modern servants
to the full if you:have provided for them: in planning your new home, put adequate
wiring al the fop of your list.
