Electricity Costs Only 8 Cents a Day For Average Family Electricity is one of the cheapest things Indiana residents buy. It is comparable in cost only with the government two-cent postage stamp. • The average monthly bill for electric service furnished residential customers was only $2.46 in communities served by subsidiary operating companies of the Midland United Company in the twelve months’period ended September 30,1930. Your own bill may have been a little higher or a little lower — depending upon the extent to which you use electric service in your home —but $2.46 was the average monthly bill paid by residential customers during that period. That means an expenditure of only cents per day per family; less than 2 cents a day for each member of the average family. What other service can be purchased at a cost of 8 cents a day which will bring the same comfort and convenience into the home as electric service? Electric senice has lightened the burden of housekeeping; it has made life more pleasant and simplified and made easier many tasks. It is the modern servant in the home. And die cost of this service today is less than ever before. Substantial and continuous voluntary reductions in the rates charged for electrical service have been made by utility companies in the group controlled by the Midland United Company. It is their policy to furnish the best possible service at the lowest possible rates. As pointed out in previous advertisements in this series, electric power and light customers of subsidiaries of the Midland United Company have benefited to the extent of more than $5,000,000 a year as a result of reductions and revisions of electric rates. These rate changes have enabled diem to either make a direct saving in money or to use electricity for more purposes, thus saving time and labor. The low cost of a fraction over 8 cents a day which residential customers of Midland United subsidiaries pay for electric service in their homes is the result of continual rate reductions and improved service. These low rates are made possible by the state-wide system of electric transmission lines which subsidiaries have built bringing adequate and reliable service to the entire territory served by them at reduced cost. ft u Thii is the seventh of a teriet of advertisements diectusing the economic* of the public utility business and reviewing how the public it benefited by holding company control. • Midland United Company PRINCIPAL OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES: Northern Indiana Public Service Company...
