DIFFERENT GRADES OF LIGHT.
Users of Twin State Product Have Dit
ficulty in Understanding Method.

The ordinary man with average lntelll-
gence as well as the extraordinary lndl

CAPITA apportionment OF brains finds 1t
hard to explain to his neighbor why he
pays seven cents per kilowatt Tor one part
of the electric current used IN lighting ms
house and IL cents for another part. lie
tells his wife that possibly the seven cent
rate is for the light when it is dim and the
l3-cent price applies to the hlgh grade
quality of Juice. However, he cannot I'M
derstand why he pays four different prices
for current that comes through the same
meter and is used for the same purpose.
He has been told by the electric light com.
many that he gets discount on his bill II
he uses a certain amount OF current but
when he tries to figure it out he Is IN
clined to believe that he is tackling puz-
zle problem.
Here is the explanation that the Twin
State Gas 4 Electric company makes to
the consumer: That the Connecticut Rlv-
err Power company charges fixed price Tor
the highest amount OF current used at any
moment during the month and that TINS
peak load" so called, must be paid Tor
before any current is distributed to Gus
toners. This high point on the meter
which registers the incoming current from
the dam at Vernon represents the equip
ment expense of the Connecticut River
Power company to meet the demand for
the maximum load which may be made at
anv time by the Twin State company, ac-
cording to the statement Of the latter con
eern. and is accordingly charged against
the first current distributed to local pa
irons.
