Should Be Added TO Seven
Wonders Of the World

You have all read of the Seven
Wonders of the World and also
the Seven Wonders of Modern
Times. They are mostly inven-
tions and the result of years OF
experiments, at a heavy expense,
and sometimes at the cost of life.
To these modern Seven Won
ders should be added Calumet
Baking Powder, because after
years of experiments the Calu-
met Baking Powder Company
has produced the most wonderful
baking powder of the present
time. This bakin G powder, first,
solves the high cost of living.
1t is a great "a wing over the
high-priced, trust brands, and,
on the other hand, it is a saving
over the cheap and big Can"
powders because it has more

human hands touching it, thus
insuring the product to be at all
times pure and sanitary. AS
the baking powder is completed
it is tested chemically and prac-
tically. 1t is always uniform.

President Bavis of the board OF pub

statement made by Attorney Wilfred
Jessup, representing the Richmond
Light, Heat & Power company, that
the city petition to the state utilities
commission for reduction OF munich
pal plant lighting and power rates
was null and void because thirty days
notice of the intention of filing such a
petition had not been given the city
plants competitor.
Il can find no provision in the state
utilities commission act which would
require the city to file such a notice
with the Light, Heat & Power COM
pany," said Mr.. Bavis. "If the L., II.
& p. desired to reduce it's rates it
would have to give the city thirty days
notice before filing its petition, but
such action is not required Of the city
unless 1t was a party to joint rate
agreement with its competitor, which
