At our command the darkness speeds and disappears; The tallow dip gives lace To essenced sunlight. The genii of all the ages past Now bow before us, And bring their abject homage. Once these are harnessed, By Becks and Edisons, - With a steady toil they work And build the tower of industry, 5 Or rob the household tasks of all their drudgery. With toiling hands and simple tools Our grandsires hewed a wilderness of trees, That smiles to-day in fields of green, ed with happy homes here comfort reigns, And love-lit eyes look forth Upon a world of wonder. That was the gift our fathers left: A gift of industry and sacrifice. To us the call has come-- What shall we do with this : Our heritage of power and great delight ? Shall we to future sons hand on A richer, nobler, cleaner world ? Or shall we prodigal our wealth And, selfish, throw our tools away, While greed and crime control 7 Great is the gift, 2 And great the field of opportunity. When John Rolph turned the switch in the Town Hall on Friday evening last, starting Hydro for Port Perry, a new era "for the town began." Later, when in simple language, he pic- tured conditions of his boyhood days, it sounded like a romance. Those were the days of tallow dips, of flint and steel; days when fire was jealously guarded, when a boy would be sent 'with tin cup to borrow a live coal from one of the neighbors if the fire should go out. 2 Si Mr. Wm. Kennedy, another old resident gave a reminiscent address, calling to mind the work of the early Councils," and paying special tribute to the late Joseph Bigelow, whose work for the town will be remembered with gratitude. Reeve Figary presided at the meeting, and made the grat- ifying announcement that the cost of installation would likely be only about seventy-five per cent. of the estimate. Messrs. James, Parker, and Purcell, of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission, traced the growth of the work, praised Mr. Livingstone for the excellence of the local construction, and urged a generous and wise use of current as the surest - road to Hydro success. This latter point was specially emphasized by Mr. Parrish, * who urged the use of electricity above the "minimum"' rather BE low it; and by Mrs. Jacksen, who pointed out the work dro can do in the house. He dresses were given by Mr. Short, Presdent of the Board 'Trade, and Messrs. S. Jeffrey, H. G. Hutcheson, Wright Cros- jer, H. C. Nasmith, Rev. W. D. Harrison, J. Lucas. and 8. Farmer.
