large crop of melons this year, the
plans are to become associated with
other similar societies and to work
up market for all the melons grown.
The society meets every Wednes-
day night at the Marsden school
house. Matters of interest are dis
cussed at the meetings. The school
house is being made truly social

PRESIDENT
ASKSSUPPORT
Of NATION
EXPRESSES CONFIDENCE IN
STABILlZERS WHEN BOAT is
ROCKED POSSIBLE TO BE
IMPARTIAL.

Washington. March 27.-Full con
iidence in the great body of calm
people of the nation who serve as
"stabilizers" when the excitable ones
try to "rock the boat" in these peril
Gus days, was voiced tonight by Pres
ident Wilson in an address before the
Baltimore conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, south, in an
nual session here.
The president appealed to the ma
ton for support in administering his
office, saying: "If ] can speak for
you, am powerful if cannot, I am
weak" He said it was possible for
a people to be impartial when a
quarrel is none Of theirs" Referring
to the danger of missionaries in some
foreign lands, of which he said he
had thought much of late, he added:
Wars will never have any ending
until men cease to hate one another
cease to be jealous of one another
get the feeling of reality in the
brotherhood of mankind, which is the
only bond that can make us think
Justly of one another, and act right
eously before God Himself"
Bishop Warren A. Gambler of AT
lanta, Ga, introducing the president
declared that the members of the
conference were behind him as pa
triots Secretary Daniels occupied a
seat on the speakers platform during
the session.
81 value the churches of this coun
try as ! would value everything else
that makes for the stability of ouI
moral processes" the president said
"There are a great many people-no'
so many that they give me any par
ticular concern-but nevertheless q
great many people who, in the Ian
guage of the day, are trying hard tc
rock the boat
"The boat is too big for them tc
rock. They are of such light material
that they cannot rock it very much
but they are going through the mo
tions, and it is just as well for them
to look around once in a while and
see the great steadfast body of self
possessed Americans not to be hur
ried into any unconsidered line OF
action. sure that when you are right
you can be calm. sure that when the
quarrel is none of yours. you can be
impartial. sure that the men who
spend their passion most will moye
the body polite the least and that
the reaction will not be upon the
great body OF American citizens, bu'
upon themselves"

Text of Order.

at is our conclusion from all the
facts and circumstances in this case
that the defendant should establish Il
minimum rate for power service OF
81 for one horse power or less OF
connected load; soc per horse power
for the next twenty horse power
and 25c per horse power for all over
thirty horse power of connected load
Should this minimum rate decrease
the income of the defendant to the
extent that this class Of service will
not pay its proportional part of the
expenses, considering the fact that
most OF the power supplied is on day
service the defendant may make a
complete showing to the commission
of the value of the property devoted
to this service and the expenses in
readjust the power rates. However,
regardless of the result of that show
ing, we are of the opinion that the
minimum charges mentioned above
are fair and reasonable, under the
circumstances this case"
In the course of its discussion of
this interesting question of minimum
charge based upon the connected
horse power of the motors the COM
mission says:
