Byron at ostend

At one time Ostend was great fort

through her menacing loophole upon
the sails of Vikings. A century ago
Byron made his memorable fight, not
from, but to Ostend, in terror of van
dal bailiffs who were laying siege to
his mansion in Pieeadilly. The poet
made the journey to Dover in his mag
nifcent 500 pound coach, but had to
wait until storm abated before the

divided to consider all it's phases. Two
districts are considered with the ex-
pense involved in bith. The report
takes up the territory to be heated, the
amount of space required to heat the
territory, the loss in transmission, the
operating cost and the income to be
derived from the plant above expenses.
The first district includes total of sc
buildings in the business section while
district ''B" includes an additional as
buildings to which the mains would no
doubt be extended in a short time. The
entire cost of the plant in district "A''
is estimated to be $26,698.53 and the
extension to "B" will cost an additional
$13,391.50, a total OF $40,090.03. 1t is
estimated that the gross revenue from
district "A" will be $10,75O and that the
operating expense will come to 81 ,554.OO.
This means net profit of $7,O95.14
or the neat return of 26.5 per cent on
the investment. When both districts
are considered, it is estimated that the
investment of $4,000 will return net
profit of 1856 per cent.
This is the proposition the business
men will consider at the meeting Tues
day night. There seems to be little
doubt but that the merchants will be
unanimous in it's support of the project
and if this is the case, the next step will
be to lay the matter before the city
council for their consideration.

A very poignant story reaches Mr..
Punch Of London indirectly from the
trenches. A gallant Tommy, having
received from England an anonymous
gift Of socks, entered them at once, fol
he was about to undertake heavy
march. He was soon a prey to the
most excruciating agony in the big toe
and when, a mere cripple, he drew of
his footgear at the end of terrible day
he discovered inside the toe Of the sock
what had once been a piece of stiff
writing-paper, now reduced to pulp
and on it appeared in bold feminine
hand the almost illegible benediction:-
God bless the wearer Of this pair o
socks!"
