Utah power company celebrates 100 years in business

We were the fifth major city in the world to get central electric service — after New York, Paris, London and Cleveland — and I don't know how Cleveland snuck in ahead of us…1921, the power company sent boys door to door to sell light bulbs? It was a way to encourage more electrical use by customers. Back then, Utah Power and Light also sold electric washing machines, also to encourage power use, and thus make more money.
