You have to bum a 50-watt lamp four hours to add one cent to your bill, while a 25-watt lamp runs eight hours for a penny. For one cent you can make enough toast to feed the whole fam ily and more—21 minutes of opera tion for a penny. An hour with the vacuum cleaner finds your house thoroughly spruced- up. And only one cent has been added to the bill for all that work, which would take you many, many hours by hand. Run your radio from seven to nine in the evening, and that two- hour entertainment has only cost you one penny. And if the elec tric fan has been running during that time it has only added half a cent to the cost — a fan will run four hours for a penny. For one cent you can run a wash ing machine one hour, a heating pad four hours, a curling iron ten hours. And your electric refrigerator can run steadily for one hour, while you are freezing a dessert, and add only one cent to the bill. Truly it takes a lot of comfort to run up an electric bill! It is the small est item in the family budget. It is the one item in the household budget whose price is lower today than in pre-war days — all the rest are far higher than they were in 1913. On this Company’s lines alone the 1929 rates represent a saving of over $600,000 a year to the people for the same service. Georgia POWER f« ZZjj COMPANY A CITIZEN WHEREVER WE SERVE
