ELECTRIC SERVICE
FOR EPSON SOON
Is
Rural Line Will Be Com
pleted Shortly From Hen
derson to County Line
OTHERS TO GET LINE.
In Short while Vance May BE Among
Leading Rural ElectrificatiOn
Counties of State, Survey
Indicates

Completion in the very near future
Of the construction work on rural
identification line SouthcaStward
from Henderson to the Franklin coun-
ty line will lgive all of the interme-
diate territory and the EPSON viii
lage, on the county line, all of the
conveniences of their city neighbors
in the service of electricity The line
is Icing constructed by the Carolina
Power & Light Company.
This is the second big rural electri-
fication project in the county, the first
having been finished several months
ago with the bringing of current to
the Middleburg community. The ter
ritory contiguous to the national
highway between Henderson and Kit
trell, including the town of Kittrell,
has had electric current for years.
Soon a line is to be constructed
from the Bearpond cross roads, four
miles south of the city, out the Lyn-
bank road for a distance of some
miles, and there is also talk of rout-
ing a line from Henderson through
the Spring Valley section clear thro-
ugh to Townsville, which would give
ludI IOIlHcIu NduCC county CODtnlull-
ity the advantages of this service. A
line is bein g planned also to run
either from Middleburg or Manson to
Drewry to give electric service to that
community.
When all of these routes have been
constructed, together with one pro-
posed from Middleburg or Greystone
out through the Carey's chapel sec
ton and probably to Aycock school,
and another serving Dabney and Wat
kinS, nearly all portions of Vance
county will have rural electric service
in a measure that will rank the coun-
ty in the forefront of the 100 in the
State in the degree in which this SER
vice is provided.
There are no services or projects
directly supplied ~ the Rural Elcc-
trification Commission in this county,
and none contemplated, so far as has
been learned. The power company id
doing the construction work.
