Electricity Changes Everything

This ad ran in LIFE magazine 53 years ago. Its caption reads:

Plenty of electricity can make your home of the future a house of marvels!...

In the future, you’ll be able to flip switches to raise or lower table and work surfaces to any height. Electricity will bring beds out of walls in the evening —then “make” them and fold them into the walls in the morning. The power that controls your home’s climate will even do the dusting.

So I want to know why I still have to make my bed!
