of PP&L’s New
Lancaster Division Service Center
Except for the generation of power itself, this new 4-buildmg complex is the
nerve center from which the electric needs of more than one hundred and thirty
four thousand homes and businesses are answered. Since its whole purpose is
to serve you better we thought you would like to come out and see how it works.
You’ll see such innovations as the4B-bay circular building, 308 feet m diameter,
in which major mobile equipment is conveniently parked on the outer rim while
materials are stored in the center; the customer information center with its 12
consoles capable of handling several thousand customer inquiries daily and the
supervisory control and data acquisition unit from which all Lancaster area gen
erating stations, transmission lines, emergency generating facilities and 48 sub
stations are controlled.
In addition to the unusual circular warehouse the complex includes a two-story
office building, a one-story “tie” building containing the dayroom, locker room
and additional offices and a modern garage large enough to facilitate repairs on
all equipment including extended hydraulic boom-type equipment. Each is
designed to provide the most efficient service to you.
But why not come out and see for yourself? Bring the whole family either Sun
day afternoon, Octobers or Monday evening, Octobers. And we will have plenty
of room for you on our parking lot!

Lately my girls have been
sending away for so many recipe
books. One comes in the mail
devoted entirely to rice, another
to cereal and still another from a
salt company. It is getting to be a
problem just to store them so
they can be found easily.
I’d guess we use one or two new
dishes each week but they still
like the old stand-bys which are
made with a pinch of this and a
dash of that. I like to tell my
family they won’t get tired of my
cooking because it is always just
a bit different than the time
before.
We had delicious soft pretzels
recently with dillseeds on them.
We had tiny cheese and onion
crackers. We had fancy salads in
flavored gelatin. Why, they’ve
even threatened to make ice
cream out of thick, sour cream.
But I prefer trying other recipes
in the new ice cream freezer
which Jeff bought us this sum
mer. I’d vote for blueberry sauce
on vanilla ice cream any day.

This past spring my husband
and I attended a Quaker wedding
at Tallsington, Pa.
Actually, the wedding took
place in a glen just outside the
Meeting House. The bride wore
the traditional veil and gown and
the groom wore a cutaway coat
and stovepipe hat. Many of the
young guests wore T-shirts and
jeans. It was a quiet and dignified
affair.
The first meeting house of
brick and timber was built at
Tallsington in 1690. William Penn
came to worship from his home
at Pennsbury along the Delaware
about six miles away. The most
recent Meeting House was built
in 1841.
There is a great satisfaction in
raising your own fruit and
vegetables. As an example, I’ve
enjoyed the small, yellow, sun
warmed peaches which I pick off
Philips’ tree much more than all
the big, juicy, spotless ones which
we bought to can this summer.
