For some time we have said nothing about the hydro costs, and we heard very little one way or the other. A few days ago, a citizen told us his bills were much higher than a year ago. though.he was certain he didn’t have any better service. The metre might have gone wrong; in any event, there Was something wrong. and he had to pay more. At last we learned his tungsten lamps had been burned out. and were replaced by old car- bon lamps, and the one most In use now got so hot you couldn’t touch it. The mystery was thought to be solf'ed. and our enquiring frignq 1:3 solGed. and our enquiring friend is using a tungsten new and will tell us the result later. \Ve have but little doubt but the-lamp described will use as much current as a 100- watt tungsten. and give no more light than 3 20-watt tungsten, per- haps less. - A. n a - -J_-:~A kflflfln {HE DURHAM mam Ten cents for a pound andl a half loaf is a high price to pay for bread. We usml to get double the amount for the same price. and even then it might have been too high when the value of the ingre(l-‘ ients in its contents were taken in- to consideration. The loaf we now pay ten cents for will furnish eâ€" nough bread for a family of four or five at a meal. Will some who complain just stop for a moment and think about the ten-cent cigars they smoked before the war, when bread was the cents a loaf, and since the war, when bread was dou- ble the price?
