In the last few years no less than 1500 com- munities oa this continent have sold their elec- trical businesses or shut the doors of their elec- trical plants or deptrtments and are served by company systems -- allowing the spiders to spin their webs undisturbed. The fleas would seem to indicate that men trained in the business of making and deliver- ing elearicity in companies owned by the people themselves do a better job than men who may be good business or professional men, but who are not trained operators. amI~g COLIPKM ZIXCTRICIbGXWaY CO.
