Behind the familiar wall switch lies the far- sighted planning and ingenuity of Canada's electrical industry that provides the low- cost power and efficient equipment which is helping to raise our standard of living. When you want light in a room, you just flick a switch. ltis as simple as that. And, if that minor miracle is taken for granted, con- sider a few of the other tasks electricity per- forms in the home. It cooks complete meals while you are out -takes the labour out of cleaning, polishing, washing and ironing-keeps perishable foods in perfect condition, for months if necessary -supplies constant hot water-brings you radio and television entertainment-and helps to keep your home cosily warm in winter and delightfully cool in summer. This is fast becoming the pattern of living in even remote Canadian homes today. Wliile the role played by electricity in the home naturally looms large with all of us, it should always be remembered that by far the larger part of the power generated is used by industry. ln fact, it is primarily because of the availability of this dependable source of power that Canada has been able to develop her aluminum, pulp and paper, mining and manufacturing industries to their present position-which, in- directly, adds to the prosperity ofall Canadians. lvhen you flip that familiar switch on the wall, have you ever given a thought to the amazingly intricate system ofpower equipment that lies behind it. From the start, the story of Canadais electric utilities has been one of phenomenal increases in demand for power being constantly met, with the result that Canada has become one ol' the most highly electrihed nations in the world. And, as always with this enlightened industry, tomorrow's needs are being taken care of by todavs planning.
