Dexter Horton Trust & Savings Bank, Trustee ‘THE most permanent assets of the Puget Sound Country are its tide-water facilities for carrying on commerce, its raw materials, going industries and develigad wer resources. The half million people who live in the Puget Sound Country are an expression of its timber, minerals, soil, commerce and those other things that have to be done here because the Puget Sound district is where it is and has what it has in resources. Realizing what all this means, the Puget Sound Power & Li: Company has, from its earliest days, pursued a consistent po! of development in this section. At the present its electric gener- ating plants have a combined capacity of 160,000 horsepower of energy which it distributes and sells over this region. In investing in the notes of the Puget Sound Power & Light Company you are putting rare money into the most basic indus- try in this section. Manufacturing plants, smelters, coal mines, flour mills, paper mills, cement plants, lumber mills, canneries and many other industries depend upon this Company for their ; wer, AND THESE BUSINESSES ARE SO DIVERSIFIED HAT PROSPERITY OR DEPRESSION in any one particular business or industry CANNOT SERIOUSLY AFFECT’ THE EARNINGS OF THE COMPANY AND THE VALUE OF THESE NOTES AS AN INVESTMENT. € The earnings of the Company come from the sales of public necessities, the demand for which is continually increasing. When you buy a Puget Sound Power & Light Note you are doing more than participating in the development of electricity, for you are tying to the fundamentals of the future of this sec- tion and getting 8% on your money while doing so. ‘ OUR OFFER First—Notes in limited amounts may, if desired, be purchased by paying 10% with order and the balance in nine monthly payments, we retaining note until final payment is made.
