romas used kerosene for all llght- ing purposes and no well-ordered household was without a large coal range in the kitchen and heating stove in the parlor. This year, however, with the number of farms and summer colonists increased, community meetings and individual. solicitation found 34 residents s.s- nifying their desire for electric service. This necessitated con. struction of more than six miles of power line over winding and crooked road. Despite difficulties, the line Is being erected and soon the residents of Maromas will have electricity for the first time. Twenty four of the 34 prospective customers have purchased electric ranges and practically all are anticipating buy- ing electric refrigeration as well as other household and farm appli- ances and machinery.

 t------ Unique History
 Extension of electric service to Maromas is pointed to. with pride by the company due to the com munity's unique history, but It Is replica of the advances in rural identification which have made Connecticut one of the only five states where 95 per cent of the fam flies have service, one of the nine states with better than 50 per cent of Connecticut's farms are now elec- trified), and Q state where use of electricity by farms is nearly four times greater (270o0,000 kilowatt hours per year) than 1t was ten years ago.
 Maromas encompasses @ beautiful hilly country, originally heavily wooded. lying along the Connecti- cut river. Originally, this section was composed of prosperous Eng fish farmers, loggers and miners who shippe dtheir produce and trade by river. Granite quarries were in active operation until 1905. During this period, industrial life in the section flourlshed, but with changing habits the quarries and mica mines were abandoned. Most of the workers left for more lucra- tive fields. A few of the workers stayed to become farmers, however and their descendants now form Q distinct element in the community Tn addition, Maromas now has it's influx of summer and year-round residents who seek It's quiet Tor relaxation. Some who have settled there have reconstructed the old co- lonial farmhouses with their hand hewn blanks, their begged beams and huge Dutch ovens.
