Last month The Bulletin presented figures showing the cost of producing electricity in the cities and towns of Massuchusetts where municipal elec- tric lighting plants are operated where- in it was shown that the average cost for the 37 plants was $0.031 a kilowatt ur. For the purpose of getting a com- parison with the local lighting plant and to find out the cost per kilowatt hour of operating it, The Bulletin has had an expert go over the reports of the plant, with the result that it is shown that during the past 11 and 3-4 years, up to April 30 of last year, which now marks the closing of the department’s year, the average is $0.0367, the total expenses, with de- preciation and interest included, being figured. The following figures show that the lowest cost was in 1913, when the kilowatt hour cost was $0.0285, and that there was been a slight increase in the two succeeding years, though the last amount, $0.0319, is for a period of only nine months: Municipal Plant’s Electricity Cost Average for Past Ten and Three-Quarters Years Shown to be $0.0367 a Kilowatt Hour—How Street Lighting Cost Compared With Other Places in Connecticut Shows Nor- — _NORWICH BULLETIN, TUESDAY, MARCH 7, 1916 Kilowatt hour.

City Gets Decided Benefit Through the Operation of Its Own Plant. In this city the cost of the street lighting is much lower than in the other cities of Connecticut, a fact which is attributed to the provision that the city gets its lighting at the cost of operation, which brings the arc lamps down to $49.44 each, while for the incandescents there is a cost of §7.82. There is a charge of $17.50 per week for the care of the lights, to which is added the cost of carbons and globes. These lights are maintained all night. Lights in other citles are of various types, some having no arc lights, while others have two or more sizes of in- candescents, and in some instances contracts are made with lighting com- panies for nights when there is no moon. South Norwalk came as near as any other to the local rates, and there a municipal plant is operated. There all service is supplied on the 4,000 hour basis per year, or every night and all night. For magnetite and enclosed arc lights there is received $54 for each lamp. For the incandescent Mazda C 250 candlepower lamps $27 and for those of 80 candlepower $10.80.

Perkins presided in the absence of the president, Miss Harriet G. Cross, who has been given a leave of absence on account of poor health. The service opened with the singing of Rock of Ages, after which Mrs. Perkins spoke very feelingly of Miss Cross’ absence and urged all to re- member her and take a firmer Interest in the work of the union. She took for an inspiration to the meeting the fcllowing verse: *“TI wili instruct lh('e 1 will guide thee with my eyes,” and followed it with an earnest prayer.

U. workers who have been the untiring leaders in educating the world up to its present standing on the pro- hibition of the liquor trafic. Mrs. Mead read a very encouraging report of the stand the board of health of the city of New York has taken against the use of alcohol. Nearly every issue of its Weekly Bulletin has contained articles against the use of alcohol in the form of drinks and patent medicines. They have scattered broadcast a series of leaflets with cartoon covers, showing the deadly results of its usage, each with, “You don’t need alkohol for health, you don’t need it for strength. yvou don't need it for food, you don't need it for drink: it never does you any good, it always does you harm. Let' it alone—get on the water wag- on. She also read the proclamation which the mavor of Philadelphia has made to over 20,000 of its city em- ployees, compelling them not to en- dulge in booze.

Mrs. Perkins told of the gain, Rus- sla, France, and England were making and trusted, ere long our own land would declare for a “dry country. Mrs. F. E. Sage read an item on Russia_and also of the noble stand Neal Dow took in 1892 and how it has grown since then. Mrs. E. F. Morgan read a very interesting paper on the prohibition in Finland, which has the distinction of being the first country to pass such a law, and al- so_sgiving the women equal franchise. Mrs. Daniel Brown read of the sharp look out the secret service men are making to enforce the drug lay, and thereby saving the rising gener- ation from falling victims to the hab- it. Mrs. Freaner read a very en- couraging poem, Saloon shall cease to be. Mrs. Perkins closed the pro- grame by reaging a very interesting story, showing the power which the woman had in driving a saloon from her town. Mrs. Fields invited the ladles to at- tend the L. T. L. meeting to be held next week Friday at 4 p. m. Literature was distributed "to those present ard the meeting closed with the Mizpah benediction. DECLARED EIGHT PER CENT.

Many doctors have prescribed and hundreds of helpful druggists have ad- vised a half teaspoonful of Rheuma once a day, because they know that powerful Rheuma, harmless as it is, acts with speed and overcomes in a few days the most torturing case of rheumatism or sclatica. Try Rheuma; Lee & Osgood and all ts sell lots of it and will re- turn your money if two 50-cent bot- tles do not stop all rheumatic misery. HEADACHE FROM ACOLD?
