' way into thc aviation exhibit of the museum. The airplane is the prize entry and occupies the most conspicious position. Hanging above the reach of eager fingers, it appears like an overgrown box-kite. Wings seem frail and the body anything but strong. Thc familiar sight of Orville Wright lying on his stomach as he guided the model, which was to become another wonder, is represented by a figure dressed in a gray cap, gray and white checked tie, brown leather gloves and a black
coat.
Underneath the Wright brothers’ machine a printed description relates that the airplane was used on December 17, 1903, at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, as the first power-driven man-carrying airplane to make a free controlled and sustained flight. The famous picture of the plane taking off on the down-hill, wooden runway also appears. The shovel with

hat other service ran he purebred at a coat of 8 e*nte a dav which will bring the same comfort and convenience
into the home as eleetrie service?
I leetric -eniec has lightened the burden of housekeeping; it has made life more pleasant and simplified and made ea<-ier many la-ks. It is ti e modern servant in the home. And the cost of this service today is less than ever before. Substantial and eontinuous voluntary reductions in the rates charged for cleetriral service have been made bv utility companies in the group controlled bv the Midland l nited Company. It is their policy to furnish the best possible
servile at the lowest possible rates.
A« pointed out in previous advertisements in this series, eleetrie power and light customers of subsidiaries of the Midland I nited Company have benefited to the extent of more than $">,()()(),<)()() a vear as a result of reductions and revisions of eleetrie rates. These rate changes have enabled them to either make a direct saving in monev or to use electricity for more pjirjKtses, thus saving time and labor. Tlte low cost of a fraction over 8 cents a dav whieh residential customers of Midland United subsidiaries pay. for eleetrie service in their homes is the result of continual rate reduction' and improved service. These low rates are made possible by the state-wide system of electric transmission lines whieh subsidiaries have built bringing adequate and reliable service tp thc entire territory served by them at reduced coat.
