Notice in the small print about sponsored radio programs, they talk about E.W.T. That is Eastern War Time the forerunner of Daylight Saving Time so we can deduce that this ad ran in the summer months. Many old factories had lots of skylights in the roofs to let sunlight augment the lighting and that is why pushing the clocks ahead an hour helped save electricity.
