When 1t DOES Pay to Spend

Nothing depreciates faster than
house left victim to the decay of time.
Nothing lessons contentment more than
home that is out of tune with the
modern mode of living.
Keeping the house in repairs and up
to date in its appointments is the service
rendered by The Eberly Plan. So far
as we know, no one else is organized to
render this service so efficiently and so
economically. ALL the work, no matter
how varied the crafts involved, is done
by Eberly Plan trained workmen. II is
accomplished successfully with ONE
moderate profit. That spells an
important economy. And there is no
division Of responsibility-The Eberly
Plan assumes it all. That is another
assurance of your satisfaction.
No matter when your house was
built under The Eberly Plan it can be
made as modern as the newest, and an
Eberly Plan Supervisor is at your
disposal to advise and execute.

More than zoo workmen, most

the gigantic construction job to
completion before winter sets in
and every type of labor-saving
equipment known to the modern

on the million-dollar project.
Contrary to popular belief, pipe
line construction does not simply
consist of digging ditch and bury

To the contrary, such construc-

which are the surveyors who plot

next clear the route OF the giant
1S-inch steel mains. The big
tractor-like machines must pre-
pare the way for automatic ditch
digging machinery. To do this,
hills must be leveled, low places
filled and canals bridged.
Az soon a. the right-of-way is
cleared, trucking crews begin
moving in the long spans Of heavy
pipe which must be welded into
one continuous line by welding
crews with portable equipment
mounted on trucks. This Is q

PIPE LINE STRENGTHENS

this fall and winter.
The new pipe line is being built
by Memphis Natural Gas Com
pany, which supplies Mississippi
Power & Light Company with
natural gas for its network of city
and town gas distribution systems
In that area.
Although the pipe line already
In use is sufficient for ordinary
needs, it was not sufficient to
meet the peak demands of the
coolest winter in 40 years (1939).
The new line will increase con-
siderably the capacity of the old
line of the system and will assure
against a possible curtailment in
service such as occurred briefly
last winter.
Construction of the line will
mean very little extra revenue to
the two companies but is in line
with their policies of providing
An unlimited supply OF cheap ma
tural gas for immediate and fu-
ture needs of the communities
which they serve.

care of any possible demand but
also provide an adequate supply Of
fuel for the growing Industrial
needs of he section.
