NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER REPORT RED CROSS NURSE An account of the tuberculosis clinic held in November was given in the November report. Of the 50 patients examined IS were positive cases and six doubtful. Miss Koch, Red Cross nure, is foV.owing -up these cases giving them such treat ment as they need. Five tubercu losis patients have made application for sanatorium treatment. With the aid of the cotton mill, in which one patient works, a sleeping porch has been built 1r him as he was un able to ail'ord sanatorium treatment. The Red Cross through private sub scription, made comforts possible for a woman unable to get them her self: The chair factory and a church are arranging to care for a man in a sanatorium and funds for his fam ily in nis aosence. Public Utilities Company was called' upon to provide service for .'5,285 new homes, industries, stores, etc. These figures are indicative of a substan tial grewth, even during a period of depression, of the cities in which the Southern Ftiblic Utilities Company 'operates; ant.' also of the ever, in i creasing appreciation upon the part :of intelligent people of what elec- jtricity can do for them, j Th" S .lithern Public Utilities (.m jany is today serving approximately ! 28,500 electrical customers. Of these apioximately 21,000 are residences. remaining 7,500 being large ana' sm-.-vl industiies, stores, offices, etc. Of the :5,2S5 new c'-'stomers taken on .uiing- 1021 more than 2,400 were residence.-, the lemainder being in dustries, stores, offices, etc. It is a fact worthy of emphasis that the residence customer no long er applies for electric- "light" he wants, electric "service," because electricity points the way not only to brighter homes, but cleaner homes, more comfortable homes and to the abolition of drudgery in the home through the substitution of electric energy for the humr.n energy which has heretofore exhausted and aged the housekeeper or her servants. .In this collection it is interesting to note that 624 families in the cities and owns m which the Southern Public Utilities Company operates are todV.y using electric ranges in their kitchens. A number of these lange customers use also instantan eous electric water heaters. Just as electricity makes for brightness, cleanliness and efficiency in the home it makes for efficiency, increases production and provides jobs fcr men in industry. Electric power is a- substitute for human power. Through its use one man does the work of many. Through its avail able opportunities are mane for men or concerns of small capital to en gage in an industry who, if they were compelled to provide other means of power, would' not be able to fin-vnee their projects. The average individual who applies for electric service either for an in dustry or for a home has little o-3'v ,.,.-.;,.n if iha r-rvst of providing this ..u.. : f TVT ss service.

When a transformer has to be set merely to take care of one range the cost may reach as high a? $150. . . The single item of meters required to serve new customers added last vear represents an investment of approximately $75,000. The hundred's of poles and the miies and miles of wire increase the investment mater ially, while the labor charge also re presents one of the largest items 'n any addition or extension of c.'istri butien system. ! It has been estimated by statistic ians and experienced utility opera tors that the investment in utilities in America today will average $700 for each family served. This investment includes power plants, primary transmission lines, the distribution I system, sub-stations, lne transform ers', etc. Necessarily the rate tor sei vice rendered' by utilities must in clude not only the cost of producing the service rendered but also inter est upon the investment required to produce a-nd deliver that service Each family is receiving the benefit of is $700 share in the total investment. ror spring Your size and style is ready Moretz-Whitener Go.
