Cricket Hicks says there is a per-
son around here who doesn't seem to
care to speak to him as they pass by,
and that on day before yesterday sfz
went so far as to turn up her nose at
him, and that hereafter until she pays
him some mind he is not even going
to act like he cares whether she does
or not.

Sid Hooks reports having seen a
green mule trotting along the Gar
Ger Creek road Tuesday of this week.
He really believed what he saw until
he remembered that he was wearing
his green spectacles.

TO FIX NEW RATES
ON PHONES AND GAS
Public Service Commission
SAYS the Revision Will Be
Based on Justice.

ALBANY, Jan. 9.--Rates for telephones
and gas will be revised so as to con-
tain "the essential qualifications OF re-
liability, justice and permanency, the
Public Sehvice Commission said In Its
annual report submitted to the legisla-
ture tonight.
Maintaining that the only possible
way Of fixing fair and just telephone
rate was a. statewide investigation of
the New York Telephone Company.
which the commission already has
begun. the report pointed out that when
it assumed Office in April Of last year.
under the legislative reorganization, $50
complaints had been filed by municipal
tiles over Increased rates. and of these
only three had been tried by the former
commission.
Among the subjects continued the
report, that appear to be sources of
complaint to the commission are the
claims that charges are made for wrong
calls, that registering devices should be
installed to enable users to know the
record Of calls made, and that to save
users from being charged for wrong
calls and limit the payment made by
them to the actual service they get,
slot machines or coin boxes be installed
in private houses and business houses
in New York city.
"All these questions have been sub
nitted to and been considered by former
commissions In this State. The decisions
have been uniformly against the COM
plainants or the necessity of making
changes In the present system.
"This commission feels. however. that
II would be we'll to give all these ques-
tions a fresh and independent investi-
cation. and this 1t proposes to do in the
general case"
Discussing the gas situation, the re-
mort held in some instances the fact that
existing rates were not adequate was
due TO the Obsolete character" OF the
plants. A way must be found, II was
stated. ito save n community from
tax In the form of rates. due to TIE
archaic and ineffective methods" An
era of lower prices and easier financing
would offer the best opportunities for
such readjustments. the commission
said.
While the commission had power to
examine all books and property of the
gas companies In New York city whic!
are attempting through the courts TO
obtain higher rates 1t was the commits
sions belief that il should not depend
on such an appraisal but should make
IAN entirely independent examination"
Hearings on the demands of the New
York gas companies for permission 10
change from the present 22 candle power
standard of measurement to the British
thermal unit system soon will be held,
the report said.
The commission also announced that
within a short time there is every indi-
cation that sliding scale (which will
bring great relief to the large consumer
of gas for Industrial and manufacturing
purposes will be put into effect.
