The course 1is designed to #lve meter men a bétter understand- ing of the increasingly technical re- quirements of commercial electric metering, ", Conducted In conjunction with the New England meter committee of the national electric light association the course has been planned for the benefit of the average meter men rather than the novice, Its purpose is lo glve him a better appreciation of the principles, theorles of operation, testing and maintenance of electrical measuring instruments, Certain ad- vanced subjects may be taken by the cxperienced meter man during the lust two days of the course.

Along way better apprecla- tlon of the cost assoclated with ren- doring eloctrical energy serviee on ita present oxtensive scale there has come a declded tendency to measure more completely those features of the servico which reflect the varia- ments of the cost. Utllity employes who administer this portion of the business are finding themselves con- fronted with an increasing degree of technical complexity and none too well accessible to the principles un- derlylng the newer dqvelopments, It ia for this reason that Yale univer- slty, along with' some 25 other American universities, has offered short intenslve courses for the bene- fit of meter men and indirectly of the huge industry which #hey serve. Yale offered such a course in 1922 and 50 meter men from all over New England’ attended.” SOUTHINGTON NEWS No special’ town meeting will be called until a petition to such effect is presented with the signatures of 20 electors, First Selectman Willlam T.
