Banked Fires Draw
No Interest—
As night comes and indus
try is stilled, the demand
for electric energy de
creases. As the great part
of the populace sleeps, the
fires under the mammoth
boilers at the power plant
are “banked.”
It would be a great finan
cial saving, indeed, if the
fires could be “killed”
every, night.
Banked fires draw no in
terest!
However, it would be cost
ly to the people. They
would be the ones who
would suffer. Electricity
must be ready to serve
every minute of the night,
as well as during the day.
It must meet many uses
and emergencies in the
home, in hospitals and oth
er places.
Enough fire is kept always
under the boilers to meet
all demands for emergen
cies for our company is
anxious to maintain our
present high standard of
service at all times.
