Electric Cooperative, Inc.
Time was rural Texans traveled many miles to the
“big city” to buy the things they needed.
But by creating new markets in rural areas and by
making the rural community a finer place in which
to live, RURAL ELECTRIFICATION has transformed
tiny villages to thriving cities. Urban conveniences
—formerly miles away are now close at hand for
rural Texans. The 77 independently owned and
business managed tax paying Electric Cooperatives
serving the State have opened up these broad
avenues of progress. Owned by the people they
serve, these electric cooperatives are even now
blazing new trails and marking new paths to
provide a brighter future for a new generation
with RURAL ELECTRIFICATION.

NEW FEEL
N EW SPACE
One look shows you Chevrolet’s
all new all over again. And the
longer you look, the more you
find to like. Chevy’s Slimline
design, for example, with new
and roomier Body by Fisher,
makes for more comfortable seat-
ing and surrounds you with
vastly increased visibility area.
Chevrolet’s remarkable new
Magic-Mirror finish keeps its
shine without waxing or polishing
for up to three years!
And there’s new feel, new efficiency
beneath that beauty. Smoother-
than-ever suspensions. Bigger
brakes for safer stops. A new Hi-
Thrift 6 that delivers up to 10%
greater gas economy along with
more usable horsepower at the
speeds you drive most. Every-
thing you want in a car is
wrapped up beautifully in the ’59
Chevrolet. It’s new right down to
its easier riding, easier rolling
Tyrex cord tires—but strong as
ever in those traditional Chev-
rolet qualities of economy and
dependability. Drive it at your
Chevrolet dealer’s now.
