Sell your electric range and take to the Great Outdoors. Any Boy Scout can teach /
you how to build a fire and cook. It’s a grubby job, but think of all the fresh air
you’ll get—particularly in winter! Just think, even with the new low electric rates,
you might save as much as 10c worth of electricity a day! In two days you’d save |
almost enough to buy a pack of cigarettes. ,■ . ,, L ;

Rip out all the electric wiring in your home, and go back' to candle-light. It’s so j
romantic and since it would cost you about $200 for the quarter-ton of candles ;
needed to light your house each month, you wouldn’t be able to buy candles. So /
you could enjoy the dark and save perhaps another 10 cents a day.

Choir—but you’ll actually save one-sixth of a penny every time you do it. In a
year you’ll be almost 9c to the good.
