And there, one after another, were letters from Florid-ians who are using the Delco farm home lighting plants, and every one of them proving a slogan employed by the Delco-Light Company: "There's a satisfied user near you," words that tell a truth. And in my travels about the state I have yet to find a Delco light user who has said aught but words of praise for his farm home lighting plant This general expression of appreciation was vocied In one of the letters I saw in Manager Cantrell's office. It was written by S. A. Brewer, of Aubumdale, Polk county, who saidt "I think more of my (Delco)) plant than 'anything I have on the farm.

It does the work for us and will save enough in two years to pay for itself." Corroboration of this was contained in another letter, thia one from George H. Proctor, who resides just outside state."

It A Delco Lights in Every County The red-headed pins, in the map that hangs on the wall in Mr. Cantrell's office, are noting the lighting history of Florida. There isn't a county in the state that hasnt one or more pins in it, some of the counties being quite thickly studded, with here and there only one or two, indicating that the making of light in dark places everywhere throughout Florida is well on the way. and all because Ir Stinson wanted the modem u- 1.L.ae.
