About Third More Current at No Extra Cost - While Large User Makes Considerable Sav- ing A big surprise is lin store foQr many o! our citizens and ita real welcome news. too. At a meeting of the Bowmanville Public Utilities Com- mission held Tuesday èvening in the Hydra Shop, the annancement was given out that an gaportant and substantial reduction in domestic and commercial hydro electric rates will came into effect with the next billing on October 3lst. Coupled with this Information was the equally important announcement that on Juiy o! this year the local commission paîd out of accumulated profits the sum of $5,324.18 to re- tire the longest outstanding deben- tures against the system. Thi.s means a saving to the ratepayers o! Bow- manville o! an annual interest charge of $252.90, or a saving of $4.425.75 over a period o! 18 years, the balance o! the period of the debenture issue. The above reductions and savings are aIl due ta the administration o! the local electric systern and are particularly gratifying I the face of considerable deficits and cansequent rate increases that have occurred in neighboring municipalities. It is also worthy o! note that since the munlcipality purchased the local systemn on Jan. lst, 1932, the commission has met aIl pay- ments of principal and interest an the debenture issue,, as they came due, and have been further able ta accumulate enough surplus funds to buy back the longést outstandlng debenture agalnst the system as mentioned above. "nhe full part- iculars of the reductions in the rates are as f ollows:- SDomestie *atem Service Charge on'domestic rates abollshed. The minimum charge o! $1.50 net every two manths will noV be chang- ed, however 33 K. W. lirs. can be consumed at this rate instead o! 23 K. W. hrs. as f ormerly. The former charge of 4.5 cents per K. W. hr. for the first 60 K. W. hrs. per month. plus a service charge of 33 cents per month, is changed Vo a charge of 5 cents per K. W. hr. for the f irst 60 K. W. hrs. per month, and no service charge. The former charge o! 2 cents per K. W. hr. for ail consumption above 60 K. W. hi-s. per month is changed ta a charge of 1.5 cents per K. W. hi-. Commercial Rates No alteration in service charge or minimum bill or amount cansumed at first rate. The former charge of 2 cents per K. W. hr. for ail consumption in excess o!f first 100 hours use per month of installed capaclty will be changed to, a charge of 1 cent per K. W. hr. This announcement should set at ease the unwarranted attacks that have been caming spasmodically from a certain irresponsible element in this town, who apparently delight in dlscountlng the services of public servants in offices of trust and re- sponsibllty. The citizenis may also rest assured that the Waterworks Department in charge o! the Commission la also recelving that same efficient and economical management that is characteristic o! the hydro electric system. Farmers' sons and daughters who have the Inclination ta better themseives in practical farmlng and household science have a grand op- portunity ta, satisf y that ambition by taking a wlnter's course ai Kempt- ville Agricultural School, at a min- imum o! expense.

The danger o! con! lning young lads who had committed some minai- offence and placing theni in an in- stitution where older boys, con!irmed in crime andi vice, would be their, companions, was reallzed as one o! the real problemas at the time the B.

Pi-esideut Eric Coombes was in the chair and pi-e- sided over the devotional period with sciipture lesson read by Miss Louise Narwick. It was decideti that as many as possible would attend the Young People's Con! erence at New- castle on Saturday and Sunday. Programn was iu charge o!

His address was intensely intersting, snd lie was greatly applauded at the close. Both Rev. A. S. Kerr and the Convenor expi-essed their thanks ta Mr-. Kean on behal! o! the Guild.

Public Schools, stressed the importance o! teachers holding certificates in Agriculture. Trustees, he announced must advertise for teachers with Agriculture certifi- cates; otherwise no grants would be given. Teachers, particularly in the rural sections o! the Inspectorate were advised ta work for standing in this subjet and ta obtain ather sup- plementary subjects as well. S9pealdng o! the tendency ta elini- mnate grades in the schools, Col. Sni- der emphasized the need o! organiz- i ng di! ferent grades for more ad- vanced pupils. Each child should be in his or her proper place and should not be held gack by pupils who are prone ta faîl behlnd. To wipe out grades, and to teach each child individually, was the ideal method, he stated. In compliment- ing the teachers, he announced that they had prepared their pupils ia way that was just as successful as In any other Inspectorate. Mathe- matical problems were outlined, and suggestions were also advanced for the various subjects o! the curricul- um. Value of Music in Schools The value a! music in the schools was exemplifled in the Demonstra- tion by the Harmonica Band o! the Ontario Boys' Training School.

In his splendid address, Dr. Simpson declared tblat music will have in the future a dis- tinct place in the curriculum o! a school. Music, he sald, cultivated better instincts, and brlngs more happiness into the lives of the chlld- i-en.

It cannot be emphaslzed too strongly that thse soul o! anY school lies in the teach- er. He urged that more Agiculture be taught, and that the teachers keep before the minds o!

Due ta the f act that the sec- ond year Normal was an expense, and o! lnsumfclent value ta the tes- chers o! the Province, the Depart- ment had decided that iV should flot be carried on.
