__ On November 22nd we announced that our electric lighting rates would be modified, effective only within the City limits of New Britain, the new rates to be optional and to take effect January 1, 1916. As will be noted from our previous announcement the first new rate this Company introduced after it began business here was a compound rate which proved to be very popular with many of our consumers. of our existing compound rates. The new rates will be reductions and modifications These new rates will benefit and afford a reduction to a large number of our consumers who have not heretofore found that they could use ourformer compound rate to advantage. In their new form, and reduced as they will be, they will afford a reduction to most of our consumers, though probably not to all, the extent of the reduction depending upon the number of hours a consumer burns his lights per month. ADVANTAGES OF A COMPOUND RATE Under this system of charging a consumer pays at one rate for a certain quantity of electricity, and at a very much lower rate for all the excess. The point at which the consumer begins to get the advantage of the low rate depends upon the NUMBEI; OF HOURS THAT HIS LAMPS ARE USED, and NOT ALONE upon the QUANTITY of electricity consumed. Most rate systems give a low rate ONLY to the large consumers, leaving the small consumers always to pay the high rate, but our new rates are designed to put the small consumer more nearly on the same Dbasis as the large consumer.
