beaded Schiffli lace on a sheer
English net yoke and fitted bodice.
The long satin sleeves had sheer

were
at work
when the sun
goes
Lights begin to twinkle across the countryside.
Lamps light up farmyards, light streams from
the windows of houses, street lights wink on
in small towns. Rural American keeps on
working.
It wasn't always so. Before the rural electrifica-
tion program, rural areas were dark after sun-
down. The work went on, but by candlelight
and kerosene lamp.
Today, rural America lights up after sundown,
because small groups of tenacious, determin-
ed rural residents—farmers, shopkeepers,
retirees, teachers and preachers—formed
consumer-owned rural electric systems like
ours to bring electricity to the countryside. It
was tough work to turn on the lights in rural
America. It's still not easy and our job is far
from finished. We must upgrade and improve
lines, serve new consumers, repair and
replace equipment. But we'll keep work-
ing... even after the sun goes down.

The Alto Fire Department reports
no fires for the week of Jan. 1-6.
This comes as a welcome change
from the past couple of reporting
periods.
A belated birthday wish goes to
firefighters Lucio Castro and Ken-
neth Clark, and "welcome" is ex-
tended to three new firefighters.
Donations were received by the
following: Ernest Moses, Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Robc, Betty Horton,
Marshall and Pauline Bynum, Mr.
and Mrs. Lee Walters and Si and
Eloise Williams. All future dona-
tions will go towards payment of the
replacement fire truck which will be
put in service very soon.
Some electrical safety tips for the
home are: do not overload circuits or
outlets, replace cords that are in
bad condition, do not run cords under
rugs or through dooijams, and in-
Bure that your home's wiring meets
your electrical needs safely. Have
this checked out by a professional
electrician.
