ID YOU EVER
WALK UP
20 FLOORS?
•
Any time you have walked up even
three or four floors you have probably
grumble at the lack of elevator service.
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. Make the best use of it.

Just like a telephone switchboard . . . there are
only so many lines, so many operators—and
when the board is full some calls are bound to be
delayed.
We regret such unavoidable delays. But in the
last two years alone, calls have increased nearly
50%. 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. This delay is felt all along the line. It
is felt by you when your operator is unable to
answer immediately.
When this happens, please remember she is
serving more people than ever before—and that
she will answer you just as quickly as she can.
