Without dependable electricity, your family's
home entertainment would be quite different
than it is today. Televisions, radios, stereos,
tape players, home-movie projectors, toy
trains (just to name a few) wouldn’t be there
to entertain your family. More homes, indus-
tries and educational facilities than ever
before depend upon electricity. Providing you
with all the electric service needed so that
electricity will be there when you flip that
switch to listen to your favorite TV program is
what we’re all about at Community Public
Service Company.

1. The extremely
rapid growth of our
Association speaks
volumes in support
of our contention th-
at no one knows bet-
ter than the Senior
Citizens themselves
what Senior Citizens
need and one of our
major accomplishmen-
ts is the over-65 Ho-
mestead Tax Exempt-
ion. This will become
mandatory if approv-
ed by the voters on
November 4th. We ha-
ve also made our in-
fluence felt in the
creation of the new
Utilities Commission,
the defeat of a poor
Nursing Home bill and
many other small tr-
iumphs. Through our
affiliation with the
National Council of
Senior Citizens, we
are helping shape and
re-direct Congressi-
onal planning that we
expect to help immea-
surably in the near
future.
