The year 1927 promises TO be
prosperous for the Puget Sound
Power ( Light Company. This
means a good deal to the citizens
of Western Washington, because
our company is one of the largest
business institutions in the state,
has one of the largest pay-rolls ano
is one Of the largest taxpayers.
We will spend during the yeal
several million dollars in new CON
struction in different parts of the
state, in addition to more than 81,
000,00000 of operating expenses,
nearly all OF which is paid locally.
