6ur''nston's New Lighting Agreement
Provides for Moonlight to Show
BurIingtonIans Their Way
Sometimes.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: The mis-
taken idea has been held by many citi-
zens that the new lighting agreement
entered into between the city council
and the Peoples Gas and Electric
company was new contract requiring
an ordinance which should be publish
ed SO the people could consider the
terms, and then remain on the table
for seven days until it could be digest
ed by the public before it is finally
adopted. The new agreement is, in
stead, merely an adjustment of the
rates which is made every five years
under the terms of the original con
tract. Not being new contract it is
not necessary for the council to make
publication of the new rates.
| Several months ago, in anticipation
of the present REIMBURSEMENT of light
ing rates the Burlington Commercial
exchange appointed a committee tc
investigate the prices of city lighting
and power IN other cities of Burling
tons class and to report to the ex
change. This committee acted will

gent research prepared a report which
was read to the commercial exchang.

and Electric company, made length.

he argued against its adoption stat
ing that his company would meet TIL
rates of the Mississippi Power com

speech he made this statement:

rates. He contended that his com

could be produced by the Keokuk OF

Burlington's new lighting rates is ar
| Improvement over the old. The former
price for arc lights was SOS on the
basis of the Philadelphia moonlight
schedule which requires 2167 hours o.
lighting each year. Enough extra hours

the average total of hours of light eacf
year under the old contract, 250S
hours. The new adjustment is not
as stated, an all night schedule. Ths
agreement specifically states tina
"said lights shall not be lighted when

While prayers Of perfume bless
the atmosphere
Where loyal souls Of love and faith
are found,
Thank God that peace is here!
And let each angry impulse that
may start
Be smothered out of every loyal
breast,
And, rocked within the cradle OF
the heart.
Let every sorrow rest.

A Lyric For
Memorial Day

LIT up once more the tinted bars.
From tower and steepe give them
sway
On whose bosom shine the stars
Let freedoms flag the kiss of MAY
Feel in all its folds today
In state and town in port and bay,
Fling the nations colors out.
Let the bands of music play
And pensive strains float all about
While speech and song and flowers gay
Come to crown Memorial day

A SOLDIERS GRAVE.
By ALICE E. ALLEN

A LITTLE old forgotten cemetery
Where sunlight softly streams.
Where birds and bees and blooms of
May make merry
And winds are sweet with dreams;
A few old fashioned monuments half
broken.
Around which grasses wave,
No other sign of memory or token
BY which to mark grave,
