3A1VIES STREET SUNDAY SCHOOL
TO' PRESENT PAGEANT
James Stree Sunday School will
put on a Pageant in the church on
Tuesday evening of next week, entit-
led, "The Rights of a Child". The
Pageant consists of song and story
and about one hundred scholars will
appear on a large platform built for
the occassion. Admission 15c and
25 cents.
HYDRO POWER BEING
TAXED TO CAPACITY
Ice trouble at the power plant
caused by the severe cold weather of
last week, together with the over-
lapping of commercial and domestic
users of hydro, have created a ser-
ious strain upon the hydro system.
The demands of the winter season
come heavy upon the hydro power.
The ice on the river above the hydro
plant retards the normal fall of wat-
er. Coupled with this is the increas-
ing use of electrical appliances
stoves, heaters, etc. And in addition
with the shortening or the hours of
daylight comes the overlapping of
the day and night loads between the
hours of 4.30 and 6 p. m, which has
the effect of sendign the peak load
for power to the maximum of power
distribution for the system. In
view of this demand the local com-
mission were asked to reduce the
consumption by twenty per cent of
the installed load during the restrict-
ed hours five to' six o'clock. When
the severe frosty weather was on
the Commission were again asked to
reduce fifteen per cent during the
whole time. Some of the local users
have been handicapped by the orders
of the commission. Users of the
current are asked to economize es-
pecially during the hours between
daylight and dark.

formed in the presence of the immed-
iate families, by the Rev. Dr. Medd,
