FRED NOD|S ENDS 20 YEARS
SUPERINTENDENT AT Church

For fhe first time since Decem-
Der Of 1888, Fred Nobis went to
Sunday School, at St. John Luth-
eran church last Sunday as a regu-
lar class member, and not as a
superintendent.
Mr.. Nobis, who is still under
medical care after a recent hos
pital stay, turned in his resigna-
ton after 20 years of superintend-
ency of Port Clinton's largest Sun
day School. 1t was received with
regret, and with real appreciation
for the fine work he has done over
that long period. He is clerk of
Port Clinton's Municipal Court.
The Sunday School, new having
an enrolment of 730 with a week
ly average attendance topping 500,
will become departmentalized from
now on rather than operate under
cne head, due to its lusty growth.

Isaac, father of six children, had

THERE'S A MISTAKE IN MY
WATER BILL, USERS PHONE

There have been "quite a few
calls" this week as the aftermath
of the first water bills which bear
the new sewer rental charge, wa
terworks superintendent William
F. Crohen admits.
A popular misconception of the
new sewer rental charge seems to
be that it was to be so percent of
the water bill. Instead, it is an ap-
proximate ITO percent.
But if you live outside the cor
poration and are hooked into a
city water line, your sewer rental
charge is double the amount paid
by your inside-the-city-limits neigh
Dor :. or in other words, 220 per-
cent of your water bill. That's be-
cause he has already been paying
a form of sewer rental in the form
of general obligation bonds, which
isn't listed On your outside-the
corporation tax duplicate.
Although ordinances specifically
citing the new charge were pub
lished several times, few home
owners seem familiar with them
judging by the telephone inquiries
/ of Hasn't there been a mistake
made in my water bill?"
Ottawa County news. (Port Clinton, Ohio) 1931-1956, 1955-01-07

You pay the sewer rental charge
at the rate of So per thousand
cubic feet of water used, on the
first $4,000 cubic feet of water 60
ing through your meter. This is in
addition to the $1.80 charged per
thousand cubic feet of water, for
the same first $4,000, that you are
also charged. SO accordingly, your
bill is about ITO percent greater
than it would have been without
the sewer rental, explains Mr..
Crohen over and over.
This is the rate affecting virtual
ly all home owners. The rate low
ers to $1.65 for sewer rental and
$1.50 for water, per thousand cubic
feet, on the second $4,000 cubic
feet of metered water; and to $1.10
for sewer rental and 81 for water,
per thousand cubic feet, for all
over 100000 cubic feet.
Misleading of bills has occasioned
many of the calls, says Mr. Crohen.
People think the amount listed for
sewer rental means a previous bal.
ance on an unpaid water bill, and
promptly call to say there must be
J a mistake, that they don't owe an (
