Not nearly enough saving is yet being made, especially in the home. Resuit, for some time past several large industries have had their power supply cut off for lengthy periods in the 24 hours. US UT NECESSARY TO SAVE ONLY'AT CERTAIN HOURS? No, it is vital to save at ALL hours. While electricity cannot be stored, water that generates it can be stored. The water storage for the five Hydro plants in the Niagara area is provided by the Great Lakes. This assures a continuous flow of water sufficient to enable these plants to go ail out 24 hours a day-still there is flot enough power. In 48 other Hydro generating stations throughout Ontario the water supply must be very closely guarded-if too much electricity is demanded one day, the next day's power supply must sufer. This condition is aggravated by the abnormally low ramn faîl last Autumn. MUST HOMES DO AIL THE SAVINO? Not by any means. ALL consumers must play their fui! part. Modified rationing has to some extent reduced the consumption of electricity in stores and by other commercial consumers, but still greater voluntar savings are urgently needed. HOW (AN 1 SAVE MORE ELECTRICITY? Don't leave lights burning in unoccupied offices. Turn idling motors off. Use range elements as short a time as possible. Turm off verandah and ail other lights when not needed. Use electrically heated water sparingly. Do not use electric heaters or grates. Avoid Ail Waste - SAVE ELECTRICITY!
