She is one of Ontario's thousands of housewives saving all the electricity possible so that more power can be made available for our busy farms, factories and other industries. How is she saving electricity? Right now, a delicious dinner is being completely cooked in the oven using only one element—instead of several on the cooking surface. As soon as the kettle started to "sing", she turned the twitch to "off"; the stored heat in the element will bring the water to a boll. Such a careful homemaker uses only proper sized utensils on elements, uses "low" Leal far stews, and saves many a penny by making the best use of stored heat after switches have been turned offl Please save all the electricity you can! Even the "'little" you save, multiplied by the "little" saved by all Hydro consumers, will speed Ontario's growing factory and farm production.
