For several years V'S tried to obtain street lights for^just a few key corners and now we were pleasantly surprised to get lights almost everywhere. Doesn't this encourage those long nice evening walks? Also they give us searedy- cats a good secure feeling when returning homeward after an evening out.

Like an ever-growing number of his friends in the building trades, Bob Api>el believes that electric heat is today's great home improvement. And, if you are ready for the better things in life, no other heating system at any price comes close to giving you all the benefits of electric heat. It's clean, safe, the most comfortable heat by a wide margin. Separate thermostats let you control the heat in every room. And because electric heat burns no fuel, there's nothing to create dirt, dust, and fumes. Walls, ceilings, curtains, and furniture stay clean longer. And there's little or no maintenance. Besides--what else can you think of that costs 50% less today than it did in 1958? For more information, call your nearest Public Service Company office.
