THE NORTH PLATTE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE CHATS WITH ' YOUR , GAS MAN TI13 use of heat and power In unite- or gas, electricity and other forms gives to each man, woman and child In thte coun try, the equivalent of 30 sor vnnts. Tho Smithsonian Insti tution believes that if our modem puhlla utility companies woro taken away It would requlro tlirco billion hard-working slaves to duplicate their iw(ork. A striking bit of information. But think how comparatively recent these aids to comfortable' nnd convient living havo been made to Borvo us. It was not long ago that Franco had a tax on windows and poor people Bpent thoir nights In darkness and foul air. Our grandmothers had to wash tho globos and trim the wicks o: oil lamps. Plenty of old settlors, now living, can recall tho days when they ran a mllo from tho nearest neighbor's with a shovelful of blazing coals. As II by magic, theso things have now passed forover. Gas, olectrlcity, tho street car, tele phone, telegraph theso havo replaced your 30 servants. North Platte Light & . Power Co. IIOXELDEH NEWS DK. 0. II.
