Home Life Electrified

There are homes and homes, but the home that does it electrically is the best. The burden of housework is taken off human shoulders and done by the tireless motors of the electric washer, vacuum cleaner, sewing machine, etc. The eye-strain that goes with bad lighting disappears when properly arranged fixtures and portable lamps are used. In addition good and artistic lighting adds much to the attractiveness and coziness of the home. No home however can do it electrically unless it is properly wired, and the difference between doing it rid and almost right amounts only to a few dollars anyway. Next month this Association will open the First Modern Electrical Home on Forest Avenue, Hammond, for public exhibition. We want to show visitors how to practice what we preach.
