one who wants to put system, safety and stability into his money
matters. • •

payment. ~ ‘ ._______

We wish to advise our customers,
through the columns of the NEws, that
we are changing our Electric Light
System, in charging for current, from
the Flat Rate to the Meter System,
(which is the only cbrrect and just
method of selling Electricty).
Will state in connection* with the
above, that we now have something
over 800 lights in use, and about 600'of
them are on the Meter System. We
have every kind of business in our tovn
using Electric lights on the Meter, and
with the exception of a few customers
they-arall-merecthan-satiefted with
the change from the Flat Rate to the
Meter. • It is not our intention' to in-
crease-your light bill, by putting you on
the Meter, but to cut out the burning of
all unneccessary lights which cuts down
the expenses both to us and our custo-
Tmers, as it reduces our Fuel bill and

patronage we have received from the
