TO ALL RESIDENTS OF BRUSSELS and DISTRICT WHO OWN 25 -CYCLE CLOAKS OR FANS! Unlike most of your 25 -cycle electrical appliances, portable electric clocks and fans cannot be changed over to 60 -cycle on your premises. Some older models cannot be changed over at all! For this reason your Hydro has opened a special CLOCK and FAN DEPOT (see below) where you may take advantage of one of the TWO SPECIAL PLANS outlined here. EXCHANGE PLAN Under this plan, for a very small 'exchange price' you may exchange your present 25 -cycle clock or fan for a brand new 60 -cycle model. All you have to do is turn in your old clock or fan at the Depot, make a selection from the wide variety of 60 -cycle models on display, and pay the very small 'exchange price' in cash. All items brought in for exchange must be in working condition, CHANGE -OVER PLAN If your present 25 -cycle clock or fan CAN be changed over to 60 cycles. and if you wish to have this done instead of exchanging it for a new 60 -cycle model, the work of converting it will be done FREE OF CHARGE. This change -over service will take about two weeks and you will be notified when the item is ready. IMPORTANT This Clock and Fan Depot will be open for a LIMITED TIME ONLY! It will be closed as soon as the change -over work in your district is completed. To avoid being inconvenienced PLEASE COOPERATE BY BRINGING IN YOUR CLOCK OR FAN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Thank you. MOBILE CLOCK AND FAN DEPOT WILLBE IN BRUSSELS MAY 21st TO 23rd ONLY THE HYDRO -ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION OF ONTARIO FREQUENCY STANDARDIZATION DIVISION '
