Many Wounded Yankees Owe Their Lives to the Fact That Surgeons Worked Under Elec-
 tric Lamps
Delco Light Wins Praise
Burdens of Rural Life Being frightened By Installation
 of Home Electric Plants

Many soldiers now returning from the battlefields of Europe owe thelf very lives to one thing-light. In tho black hours of night-at the dressing stations and field hospitals wherV every minute decided life or death, it was largely Delco- made electric light which enabled the army surgeon to perform so successfully the hundreds of life saving emergency operations.
 Red Cross, army, Y. NJ. C. A.-all the war organizations depended on Delco- lights. Now that the war is over, Delco-lights are available again for civilian use. No matter where one lives, whether high in the mountains or in the broad valleys or in small towns. he> can have electricity and all of its ad- vantages in his own home.
 Power companies have been unahle to make extensions because of the very high price and shortage of materials. but notwithstanding, residents of small communities everywhere are being pro vided with efficient power and light ing plants. To most present day city dweller, raised in the country. the farm round of Chores in the gray, cold hours. To women it means breaking one back over the churn. the washing tubs. or the cream separator. To men it means tedious hours with hand machinery feed grinders. grindstones feed mixers corn shelters and the like. To every one it means poorly furnished, poorly lighted houses, long winter evenings in rooms Illuminated only by yellow glimmering coal-oil lamps.
 Everybody remembers poor lighting and lack of modern conveniences as the greatest drawback to rural life.
 But Delco Light has changed all ths It has done away with these disagree able features and with other modern improvements is playing it's part to- ward influencing city folk to return to the country.
 Women Hail Era of Domestic Con
 venience
 Delco-L Light provides for the genera ton and storage of electricity right on the farm so cheaply and economically that every household can afford it.
 In the house the bright electric light h- not only cheered up the room by replacing the old coal oil lamp, but its power is making easy these little jobs which every woman heretofore has wanted to avoid. With small detach- able motor she turns the churn, does the weeks washing and runs the sew ing machine by simple connection to the light socket, the vacuum cleaner is saving women hours of back break . ing sweeping and actually doing a bet ter. cleaner job.
 For the men the Delco operated mo- tor is equally time saving around the barn. Mixing feed for the stock sharp ening tools, clipping horses all of these chores are easily disposed of
 But best of all Delco- Light means good lights wherever lights are wanted Delco-Lights can be placed in every room, on the stairway. in the pantry on the porch. They can light the way to the garage. They eliminate the uss of dangerous lanterns in the stable and hay loft. Wherever you want light YOU can have it with Deco
 The Delco-Light plant is so simple ot installation, is run so cheaplv and witf so little trouble that it's country widt adoption is under way. It demands lit tie or no attetion and is so economies that it soon pays for itself many times over
 Buckeye Farmer Effects Great Saving Martin Rundson, a dairy farmer liV ing at. AIillbury. Ohio, has proved this l.. ,-.l,:, ,l.;.-r f; last fall by a gasoline engine. The eos of fuel was $l3.75 week. The cost O operating this same milking machin' was reduced to s490 a week, a yearh saving of $46020. by the installation of a Delco-Light unit
 But in addition to running the milk ing machine, he is lighting farm houses horse barn and COW barn and doing tn washing and ironing. He feels that tn best investment he ever made Wa when he bought his Delco- Light plant River Freighters Have Delco- Light
 One large California transportatioi and towing company, working on tn San Joaquin and Sacramento river said that Delco- Lights are giving then 100 per cent efficiency on their barges Their freighters run at night as well a in the daytime. Delco provides the crev with constant illumination just whel they want it.
 Wherever one goes throughout tn length and breadth of the country. h, will find Delco- Lights in use Man, , farmers consider their Delco plant ; necessary part of the equipment o their farms and many would leave tn, farm rather than give up it's advan tages.
 But Delco-Light plants have a ia wider use than just on the farm. Man, noteis and summer resorts have .- stalled them and in many small towns people are using them. The fact i Delco-Light has done more than any thing else to bring the hundred ad Nantages of the big city to the smal community all over the land
