The price you as an average residential
customer pay The Illuminating Company
for each kilowatt-hour of electricity you
use is actually $50 less today than it was
in 1899. That's quite bargain, especially
when you consider what has happened to
the price of most other cost-of-iving items
in the meantime.
Milk, for example, now costs you about
21c quart compared with 1Oc in 1889. If
the price of milk had gone down as cleo
tricity has, you'd be paying only INC
quart for it today!
Or low-priced car, worth around $3.50
in 1889, would cost you only 1858 today,
instead of 81, 900 or so.

There are two main reasons why The
Illuminating Company has been able
to bring down the cost of your electric
service.
First, you are using more electricity than
ever before. AS with many products,
buying in quantity" results in lower
per unit price (even though your total
electric bill may be higher).
Second, The Illuminating Company is
constantly improving its equipment and
methods to make them as efficient as
possible.
AS result, electricity from The Ilumi-
mating Company is the biggest bargain in
your family budget today.

The Peron government has be-

principal churches burned and
pillaged here during the abor-

fact that ecclesiastical authori-
ties have insisted that the work
be undertaken by them at their

Gangs of workmen arrived at the
Churches of San Francisco and
Santo Domingo to clear away the
