It never fails to amaze newcomers to Detroit and Southeastern
Michigan!.Without extra charge, we will exchange your burnt-out
incandescent lamp bulbs for new ones. You can trade in larger
bulbs for smaller—or smaller ones for a larger size. Just bring
your old bulbs, along with a recent Edison bill for quick identi-
fication, to any Edison customer office.

NATE S. SHAPERO

The 1949 March of Dimes,
which is entering its second week,
is gaining increasing momentum,
Nate S. Shapero, campaign chair-
man for Wayne County, an-
nounced. He urged all citizens to
redouble their efforts in the final
week to make the drive a record
success.
Shapero listed two primary
reasons for greater donations than
ever before during the campaign.
On the one hand there is the
ever-present threat of a local
infantile paralysis epidemic, such
as last year's crippling attacks in
parts of North Carolina and Cal-
ifornia, while on the other is the
tremendously high cost of after-'
care for those stricken.

Then, too, we will replace any frayed or worn-out appliance
cord you have in your home with a brand-new
one—also at no extra charge.

For more than forty years, Detroit Edison custom-
ers have used these extra services. They will help
you get the most out of all the electricity you use.
