Surprising, isn't it, how quickly Edison servicemen

can respond to a trouble call? As small a thing n$ a burned-out fuse in an electric range will bring the Edison man to the most remote farmhouse with remarkable promptness.

In addition to emergency services, ir/» nice to know that Farm Service Advisors,

"Land sakcs.;: it's the Edison man"

Home Service Advisors, and appliance repairmen are ready to serve you—quickly and efficiently.

Part of the answer for the speed of Edison service is the number of Edison offices—H6 of them throughout southeastern Mich­igan. Part can be found in the pride that l ^ s o n employees take in helping you get the most out of all the electricity you use.
