A correspondent of the Record stated last
week that the people of Vineland we're up
in arms because the Vineland Power and
Light Company had determined upon a
minimum price of fifty cents per month
for each meter. Your correspondent well
remembers hearing an old gentleman once
say, In seeking position in New Jersey,
always 60 north instead of south, as you
will then find conditions generally better"
Now, Vineland friends, move north; at
least. come as far north as Pitman Grove
where you have the pleasure of being
charged four times fifty cents per month
per meter, and you will know something
of the luxuries Of higher civilization and
trust prices.
