The Philanthropist.

He rises early with the sun,
Sometimes before the days begun,
And goes ahead at planting things
And killing weeds and stringing
strings,
For undeveloped views to climb
When they begin to grow with time.
Then he buys seeds, gets out the hose,
And spades the place until there
grows
Beneath his skill a bunch of stuff,
That's funny looking enough
To feed the chicks that wander DER
From the neighbor's hen yard just
next door. C. r. j.

TOWN COUNCIL REDUCES
POWER RATE FOR ICE PLANT

Al meeting of the Town Council
held Wednesday afternoon, reduc
tion was granted the Arcadia lea X
Fuel Co.. on the rate they have heeh
paying the Arcadia Light and Water
Plant for current.
Figures furnished by the Arcadia
Ice & Fuel Co., showed that at the
present rate paid by them for cur
rent they could not operate except
at loss. and that it would only be
a question of time before they would
be forced to 60 out OF business, III
which event the light plant would be
deprived of practically one third OF
it's revenue.
These facts being before the coun'
ell il was deemed best for the town
as we'll as for the ice company tC
grant the reduction asked for, especl
ally in view of the fact that it could
be done and still give the light plant
a profit on the cost Of producing the
current
With out an ice plant in a town
the size of Arcadia is at the mercy
of the ice manufacturers in the large
cities, who can be depended upon tc
supply ice to the smaller town only dur
Inc cool weather when business is
slack and ice is not needed. but who
seldom furnish ice with any regular,
ity when during the torrid summer
DAYS when ice becomes a real neces
sity.
Looking at the matter from this
view point, an ice plant may be con
sidered as one Of the most important
assets Of town, next to its light and
water plant, which naturally holds
first place. In view Of these facts we
feel that the action Of the Town Coun.
ell In granting the reduction is most
cOmlnendable, as it will enable the
ice plant to continue in operation and
at a narrow margin of profit instead
of a steady loss which has been the
case heretofore.
The council has also appointed a
committee composed of three council
men to net as an advisory board t(
| look after the affairs of the Arcadia
Light and Water Plant. This will re-
iieve the superintendent much Of the
detail and responsibilities which have
heretofore rested upon him, and vii
enable him to devote his time anj
attention to the mechanical superin
tendency Of the plant. The committee
Is composed Of Z. H. Fisher, Leo Dan
lei and Fred W. Pentecost.
