But have you realized lust how impossible a modern city would be without vertical transportation . • . or how impractical and costly elevators would b® without electric poWer? Elevator service is lust one exam- ple of countless taken-for-granted ways in which electricity serves in daily life. The home washer, electric range, refrig- erator, and vacuum cleaner all take a lot of muscle-testing toil out of maintaining a home. Imagine one cent running a wash- ing machine or a vacuum cleaner for a couple of hours, or giving refrigeration for a whole day i But that is what one cent's Worth of electricity can do at average Ontario rates. On a farm, any, time you see men pitching hay into a proximately ou can figure that the lob is worth appr lc per ton. An that is about what it would cost for electricity to do the same work at average Ontario rural rates. More and more farmers are learning that electricity is the cheapest labor they can hire. And your Hydro is doing everything possible to extend rural services as rapidly as the supply of materials will permit. Whether you live in town or country, whether you work in skyscraper or barn, Hydro works for you in Ontario at a cost much lower thanobtainable in most other parts of the world.

We're installing equipment to handle this increased telephone volume just as fast as it becomes available, but shortages of essential materials are still slowing up our expansion pro- gramme.
