A Lady Likes to Be
Treated Right

(

Ask any little girl who has
exchanged burned-out lamp
bulbs at an Edison office.
' She'll tell you she was treated like a debutante
shopping for sables. For, although Detroit Edi-
son supplies eight million new lamp bulbs to its
customers annually, the Edison clerk never seems
too busy to give her a smile and a cheery greeting.

THE HE FROIT

Next time you need lamp bulbs, take your burned-
out ones, along with a recent electric bill for easy
identification, to your nearest Edison office. You'll
find that the clerk is genuinely concerned with
your needs and viewpoints.

And you'll find a willingness to go out of the way
to help a customer, whether it be a little girl or a
great-grandmother.
