GRANDMA RILEY wasn't fooling either. "Past seven" was
bedtime when Grandma was a girl. She was tired and tomorrow
would be another hard day. She'd be up at 5:30 and busy
every minute. Bread had to be baked and the wood stove had
started smoking again. Then there were kerosene
lamps to be filled—wicks trimmed and chimneys polished.
And the oblong copper tubs had to be filled with clothes and
steaming soap . . . then hand-scrubbed and put through the
wooden wringer. Beating and sunning the rugs was another
job that just had to be done. It had been put off too long already.

Today Grandma really would have lived the life of Riley!
Just a flip of the switch brings light into darkened rooms
... automatically launders and dries our clothes ...
vacuum cleans the rugs. It preserves our food and cooks our
meals without fuss or bother. Yes, all of us are using more
and more electricity these days and doing more jobs more
easily and for less money than doing them any other way.
