Every hour of the day and night, every day in the year, watchful attendants are on the alert studying meters, keeping records and regulating the flow of Hydro current to consuming areas. When there's a storm, most people seek shelter, but that is when Hydro is busiest. Between darkness and dawn come hours of rest and sleep, but, with Hydro, every hour begins a new day. Light for homes, hospitals and factories—heat for blast furnaces—or to cook meals in your home— energy to turn thousands of motors in factories, mines, shipyards—this is the work of your Hydro. Hydro is helping to shorten the war. Over 1,000,000 Hydro -electric horsepower is at work on war materials. Let us all be thrifty in our use of Hydro. New war plants must be energized and existing plants are con- stantly being harnessed to the war effort. Let war needs come first. AN APPEAL TO THE HOUSEWIFE You can do so much to save electricity. Don't let the kettle over -boil, Watch the switches on your electric range—turn out sit lights when net needeei, Resolve to soma some current every day to help Ontario's war Industries.
