FUEL FOR THOUGHT
Do you sometimes say, “It’s chilly tonight, let’s turn on the radiator to the full? Do you use your electric iron unnecessarily and leave it switched on all the time even when you answer the doorbell? Do you use your vacuum . cleaner from habit rather than necessity—or leave your radio on all day—when there’s no one in the room? Do you leave the light burning in the hall all night or leave the porch light , on when going to the pictures? Do you waste unnecessary power .by letting your water-heater boil? Don’t do these things—ELECTRICITY is a 1 vital war munition and wasteful household use deprives essential industry of power. Day or night you must economise in power to obviate compulsory measures. Every consumer can heln SAVE ELECTRICITY— IT’S URGENT Switch it off. —lssued by the Electricity Controller, Public Works Department.
