The payroll of the
Georgia Power Com
pany and its subsidiary
companies for 1929
was $5,719,053.00—
every penny of which
went to a citizen of this state. 5,532
employes were needed to serve you.

dealers materials and supplies cost

service that a few years ago only
big cities could supply—placing the
smallest village on a par with the
largest centers in this respect.
It costs a lot of money to serve
you well—but by spending this mon

service, at lower rates.
It is well worth spending!
