total $20O,0O000, and that amount
will be used for the purposes Of these
proceedings.
Applicant has suffered continual
ly increasing cost of oil from 1913,
when the cost was $1.345 per barrel,
until he present time, when the oil
rrice is $2.52 per barrel at Ell Cen
tro. During this period the appll-
cant's gross revenue has increased
from S42,o56.19 in 1915 to $54, ,591.94
in 1877, while the net operating reve-
nue. has increased only $27.4O
This utility has not, since Its in
ception, earned sufficient return to
enable it to set aside depreciation
reserve. From the evidence submit
ted in these proceedings, it appears
that certain elements of applicants
physical properties, particularly pipe
in the ground, deteriorate very rapid
ly, due to local conditions, and for
this reason a higher rate of depreci-
alton should be allowed than in other
districts.
During 1917. applicant earned only
S9,O62.40 for interest and deprecia-
ton, and the increased cost of oil
alone during the ensuing year will
amount to over $5,OOO.00, leaving ap-
plcximately $4,OOO.OO to cover other
increases and interest charges and
Interest on applicants
outstanding bonds amounts to an an
nual charge of S1O,320.00, and it is
apparent that relief is absolutely
necessary to safeguard applicants
financial standing. The rates estab-
lished in the following order will give,
in the. commissions opinion, sufficient
relief to meet bond interest require
ments and increased expenses.
Due to the exceptionally hot wealth
er that is experienced in the 1mper-
ial Valley during the summer months,
many people are in the habit of leav-
ing the valley at this time, which, as
the applicant maintains, has required
in the past the removal and then,
after short time, the installation
of numerous meters. To reduce the
number of meter renewals, thereby re-
ducing certain of applicants expenses,
the commission has deemed it advis-
atle to eliminate the monthly mini
mum bill as applying to general do
mestic service for the two summer
months of July and August.

Many families are suffering. De-

But eight cars Of coal have ar
rived in the city since Monday noon.
The normal demand for coal in
South Bend in zero weather is about
20 cars per day, according to l. p.
Hardy, county fuel administrator.
Nine cars which arrived Monday
morning were sold long before they
were placed at the yards in the
afternoon, and the small remaining

irving Tuesday has been spoken for
by many.
Coal is being distributed on the

Hardy. Even Mayor Carson is get

In connection with this statement
Mr. Hardy said he wanted it made
clear that boarding" is keeping
more coal than is necessary for i'm
mediate needs. lone family may
order two tons of coal. and not be
boarding, while another may get
only one ton, and still have more
than its share. The whole thing is
based on the length of time the coal

All teachers and principals in the
city schools met at the high school
Monday afternoon TO hear an ad-
dress by DR.. Thomas II. Briggs OF
Cincinnati. o., who spoke on The
War and the Schools" The occasion
was national Child Labor day, and
a short time was devoted to observ-
ing the fact.
DR.. Briggs spoke of the effect Of
the war upon schools and school
children today, and told of the re-
organization now taking effect, as
well as of that which would prob
ably be required TO meet after-war
conditions.
He mentioned the compliment the
army has paid the school system in
using the tests which are now used
in the schools as a basis for selec-
ton of men for various branches of
the service. The methods of learn
ing just what sort of work a man
is fit for are adapted from the meth
DDS used in schools today, he said.
That education after the war
would be more practical was the
opinion Of DR.. Briggs. The de-
