“...the best possible
electric service at
the lowest possible cost!"
That is a goal toward which a Rural Electric
System constantly strives. Much time is devoted
to maintenance, system studies, planning—plan
ning ways to improve service ... to provide for
the ever increasing demand for electricity . . .
Good planning is necessary to provide good
service . . . and to make every dollar go a long,
long way; for the money borrowed to build our
Rural Electric System must be paid back, with
interest, to our banker, the REA.
And, as more and more uses are found for an
ever increasing amount of low-cost electricity in
rural areas, so, too, is a greater market created
for goods and services bought from folks in the
cities and towns . . . Rural Electrification is good
for ALL Americans!

There Just Ain't No
Advertising ...

Need For Continuous
* PREACHERS . . .
. . . should preach only one sermon or so a year, it doesn’t take constant ‘adver-
tising’ to root out sin.
* The TRAFFIC LIGHTS . . .
. . . at main highway intersections should be turned off to save electricity; every
one knows they are dangerous corners and there will be no accidents. No need
for ‘constant adver ’sing’ to influence people to stop and look.
e TEACHERS ...
. . . don’t need to constantly review lessons. Tell the children just once and
they’ll never forget.
* HIGHWAY PATROLMEN
. . . can stop driving up and down the highways. Everybody knows the law and
knows there are patrolmen. No need to constantly remind drivers by ‘advertis
ing’ the fact through patrolling.
* All Business Firms • • •
. . . that advertise are just giving their money away and fast going broke; mail
order firms who send out catalogs are also wasting money ... all the people in
this section know what’s sold in Brantley county, and all that advertising doesn’t
influence them a bit — they all shop at home!
If you are one of the foolish kind — like the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris
that has stood for six centuries, but still rings its bell each day to let people
know it’s there — you recognize the basic truth that regularity is the single most
important element in effective advertising and Brantley county’s most effective
advertising medium is . . .
