Food, clothing and the other items you use
every day make up the Cost of Living average,
as shown in the upper line of this chart. It's
43 per cent HIGHER than before the World
War, in 1913. Now, trace the lower line and
see the downward trend of electricity prices
paid by homes served by this Company in the
same period. When you hear arguments in fa
vor of government ownership of the electric
industry, remember this chart. Have taxes, pos
tage rates and other government costs gone
down, down, DOWN like this?

anyone else, that prices are up and on the rise. And
you know, too, that you can’t buy twice as much
food, twice as much clothing, or twice as much of
almost anything else today as you could buy in 1928,
before “depression” became a household word.
But Georgia homes today CAN, and DO, get
twice as much electricity for their money as they got
in 1928.
Here’s the proof— $3.34 a month is the average
electric bill paid by homes served by this Company.
In 1928, that amount of money would have bought
you 41 kilowatt hours of electricity (if you lived
in Atlanta, which had the lowest electric rates in
Georgia. In other towns, with their higher rates, it
would not have bought as much).
But today, $3.34 buys 83 kilowatt hours on the
new “inducement” rate, and the same big value for
your money is available wherever this Company’s
lines run —in cities, towns, villages, crossroads set
tlements and on the farms.
From 41 kilowatt hours in 1928 to 83 kilowatt
hours today — more than TWICE AS MUCH for
the same amount of money — that is what makes
electricity the biggest bargain you can buy.
Into a depression and out of it, whether other
prices were coming down or going up, the price of
electric service has gone down, down, DOWN !

Cold Weather Hints

p ASTOR OIL, wiped over the out-
Vi side of the windshield to form an
even film, will help to keep txie wind
shield free of ice during winter
storms.

When a hand lever spark control
is provided, the process of warming
up the engine can be accelerated by
running it on a retarded spark for
a short time. Do not race the engine
to warm it. Racing the engine is
always bad, but worst of all when
it is cold.
* * *
If a flap-type cover is used for the
winter front of the radiator, it
should leave the lower half of the
radiator face covered, when the
cover is half open. The kAver part of
the radiator carries the cold water.
Especially in the thermo-siphon
system, there is danger of freezing
at this point even if the upner part
of the radiator is warm.
