For some yearsprior - to the intro- duction of Niagara power, some 200 electricity users in Clinton were sup- plied from a plant owned by the Clinton Electric Light Company. Power from this plant was also used at the knitting mill, as well as for: lighting the streets. The agreement with the council called for the street lights to be on from dusk until mid- night for 300 nights of the year. On the nights when there was moon- light the Company was not called on to • furnish power for the street lights. Hydro was turned on in Clinton in 1914, 297 consumers being connected. The power used amounted to 50.6 horsepower. Clinton consumers now number 655 and it requires an ave- rage of 450 horsepower to supply thein' needs. Clinton's total of Hydro reserves and surplus is now $118,614 itemized in Provincial Hydro records as fol- lows: Reserve for equity in Provin- cial Hydro system $35,039;reserve sy em for depreciation on local plant $25,- 098; arid operating surplus $17,626. The sinking fund on local debentures almost equals the debentures out- standing. ut- stund g in •. Quick assets are in ex- cess of liabilities, consequently the local system is in the enviable posi- tion of being out of debt. Total revenues were last year $27,- 549 as against $6,412 in 1914; Light- ing revenues totalled $18,673 as a- gainst $4,051 in 1914; Killowatt-hours sold for lighting were 792,154 as a- gainst 46,162; and plant capital is now valued at $74,545 as compared. with $36,025 in 1914. Last year the average cost for Domestic and Commercial lighting was 2.3e per kilowatt-hour, while in 1914 the average, was 8.7e per kilo- watt-hour. Although economies in Hydro ad- ministration and renewals on bond Issues at lower interest rates have aided the Commission to reduce pow- er costs, the biggest factor has been the rearrangement of the power pur- chase contracts. The cost of pur- chased; power during 1936 on the Ni- agara system was $3,110,848, where- as the corresponding cost in 1935, before rearrangement of power con- tracts, was $8,232,969. ,.While, of course,. the people .of Ontario could never have afforded to use such quantities of electricity at old private power rates, the differ - Ever relying upon' Divine guidance Agincourt performed the ceremony. in dealing with tbo great problems in Given in marriage by her uncle, Mr. our Temperance cause. -Resolved S.
