TO BE RE-DISTRICTED,
In order to simplify the work of
taking over 20,000 miles of rural
roads, as contemplated in a bill now
before the Legislature, Governor Pin- | =
chot, last Thursday, announced that
the State will be divided into six di-
visions with two districts to each di-
vision. Centre county will be inthe
2nd district of the first division
which will include the following ;
counties:
District 1—Crawford, Erie, Forest,
Mercer, Venango and Warren coun-
ties. District 2—Cameron, Clinton,
cretia Ann.

Centre, Elk, Clearfield, Potter and

S. W. Jackson, who for some years
past has been engineer in charge of
this district, with headquarters at
Clearfield, will hecome engineer in
charge of the sixth division, which
includes the counties in the western
part of the State,
D. C. Stackpole, who at one time
was located in Bellefonte but of late
stationed at Harrisburg, is to be the
engineer in charge of the third di-
vision in the eastern part of the
State.
Wayne D. Meyer, who was the
first division engineer in charge of
this district and who of late has
been located in Philadelphia, will be-
come chief engineer in charge of
maintenance, at Harrisburg.
A rumor has been current here the
past few days that there is possibili-
ty that the district offices might be
moved to Bellefonte from Clearfield, |
but this is hardly likely, as Centre | 2
is practically on the southern boun- X
dary line of the district. But there X &

"THERE'S not a day in the week that
electricity doesn’t save time and work
at our house. It hurries up the ironing
« + « lightens the heaviest part of the
cleaning . . . keeps food properly chilled
. « » and gives us luxurious warmth from
our portable heater. It even saves lots
of steps back and forth to the kitchen
by making toast and coffee right at the
table. :
Then every evening, it provides plenty
of good light to save eyestrain and those
nervous headaches which so frequently
follow.
But the greatest saving is in our cur-
rent bill; only $4.33 a typical month for
66 kilowatt hours. We always feel that
we are economizing by using all the

Mrs. J. V. K. could also find electrie
cooking economical by using approxi-
mately 130 more kilowatt hours.
Since she is already using 66 kilowatt
hours, the additional 130 would cost her
only $3.23. This total of 196 kilowatt
hours at $7.66 would in 1923 have cost
$15.76 or more.
It is our policy not only to decrease
the cost of current, step by step, with
increased consumption; but alse te
reduce rates whenever possible.
