C. What is better than FRIED CHICKEN Answer MILK-FED CHICKEN Fried at DIXIE GRILL This week . . . while they last BUY MORE BONDS You Don't Have to Stand in Line . . . To Buy ^ ZLECTRIC POWER THAT'S TRUE, even though the electric light and power industry in America was called on to produce, in 1942, the greatest amount of electric power in history ? 189 billion kilowatt-hours! I And 0t tbi same turn the average tost per kilowatt-bear to the consumer was lower than ever before! I Not only were all the demands of war plants, military camps, naval stations, and arsenals met ? but there remained 27 billion kilowatt-hours of electrical energy to take t care of the needs of shops and stores, 30 billion for homes, 13 billion for public trans portation, street lighting, and other uses. These are some of the accomplishments of the electric light and power industry and of the electrical manufacturers who build the equipment used to generate, distribute and utilize electricity ? working together with the teamwork so typically American. How Wt Htlped POWER GENERATION. More than one half of all the electric power genera ted by electric light and power companies in the U. S. is pro- v duced by generators manufactured by General Electric. And such has been the improvement in the efficiencies of turbine-driven generators that if the electric power used in 1942 had been pro duced with the machines of 1924, it would have required mure than a million extra cars of coal a.iu one hundred and forty thousand men just to mine and haul this extra coal. POWER DISTRIBUTION. To have ample power available wherever new war plants have sprung up requires large and highly efficient transforming and switching equipment and the solution of highly intricate engineering prob lems. General Electric has had a hand, and a head, in >the development and manufacture of much of this equipment. POWER UTILIZATION. Building mi dlines, lamps, and appliances that put elec tricity to vorlrTnore efficiently in factories and homes is one of our most important jobs. The United States has more of these electrical helpers than any other nation. In 1942, the average home used twice as much electricity as in 1930, and in those 12 years the average price per kilowatt-hour decreased 40%. ? '? ? This it only a small part of the story of America's elec trical industry. When the full story becomes history with the passing of the years, it will reveal a group of meo who, with a determination which now seems providential, kept oo ? co-operatively developing new and better equipment, increas ing generating capacity, lowering costs, expanding service, planning always to be ready for the demands of the future. It will be a story of remarkable vision and courage ? for it all had to be planned, and the work started, years ahead of the seed. . The next time you meet a man from your electric service company, be he the local manager, or meter reader, or spurred lineman carrying out his assignment in rain, sleet, or heavy winds, give him a word of encouragement ? for he is the man who is making it unnecessary for you to stand in line for electric power.
