Rural Electrification is the process of bringing electrical power to rural and remote areas. Electricity is used not only for lighting and household purposes, but it also allows for mechanization of many farming operations, such as threshing, milking, and hoisting grain for storage. In areas facing labor shortages, this allows for greater productivity at reduced cost.

Al Jolson (born Asa Yoelson) (May 26, 1886 – October 23, 1950) was an American singer, comedian, and actor of Jewish descent. In his heyday, he was dubbed “The World’s Greatest Entertainer.”
Why Al Jolson, though? Why does Hempel single this detail out and use it for the title? Jolson was famous for performing in blackface, a practice that at the time was not yet taboo in the entertainment industry. The image of a white man wearing this disturbing performer’s “mask” may tie in with the narrator’s sense that she was putting on a performance for her dying friend, behaving in a way that they both knew was deeply and disturbingly fake. This fakeness might be extended to the behavior of the nurses, the doctor, and of all of us in the face of bleak realities.
