Your Monk’s Worth
“Most customers realize that they
are getting more out of their utility ;
service than they pay for.” wrote
Henry C Spun- in Public Utilities
Fortnightly recently- “The con
sequence is that the demand for low
er rates results largely from, artifi
cial stimulation by political Uaders
professional trouble makers ”
In support of that thesis. Mr.
Spurr brings out the interesting fact
that attacks on utility rate structures
art . more than ordinarily prevelant in
states where the commissions have
been most vigilant in obtaining rate
reductions. In California, for x
ample, it was claimed that utility
rates during depression were the
samj as at the peak of prosperity—
whereas the truth is that rate re
ductions made since the fiscal year
1928-29 up until l -arly last year came
to the sizeable sum of $19,000,099
New York is another state where the
utilitirs and the regulating commis
sion have been extensively criticized
—yet eVctric rate reductions made in
1931. 1932 and 1933 are saving power
users $15,000,000 a year- Similar ex
perience can be produced for a score
of other states
The upshot of all this is that the
utilities have simply be*h tnade a
political issue—irrespective of the
merits or ttya demerits of the case
They are big- Their operations are of
necessity complicated and difficult to
undatrstand- The business is highly
technical throughout- And they are
an excellent target for the politically
ambitious
The encouraging factor is tnat tne
general public—which has shown its
attitude in many recent elections
when proposed bond issues for muni
cipal electric plants were rejected—
has refused to be taken in, and thor
oughly realizes that when it spends a
dollar for electricity it is getting its
money’s worth, and then some

DO FATHERS COUNT?
By R. A. Adahvs
(For The Literary Service Bureau)
A young woman was heard to re
mark: “Fathers don’t amount to
much.” These are the sentiments of
many, many thousands- True, there
are many unwortftvy ones- Some
fathers have committed every sin a
gainst their own from inexcusable
neglect to seduction and incest- It
is true often fathers have abandon
ed their families- But these are ex
ceptions and not the rule
For every one. negligent, derelict
father there are many who have been
and are loyol- These fathers have
toiled, suffered, sacrificed themselves
for thci good of their children- Thou
sands of such fathers have worked
and sweated and then carried their
wages home for the support of their
families The progress of the race
and of the nation would have been
j impoeible without this loyalty- Tes.
fathers count—count much—even if
they are traduced; and Iaughad to :
scorn And they are entitled to honor, j
along with mothers- Let it be remam- j
bered that: ,
“Fathers who sacrifices make !
Have hearts that fed, and love
—and break.”

leave it to him, and he will again
place it back as good, if not better.
Mir. Jaimes Calloway is stepping
high now, because Mr- Maloy is one

Mr- Johnny Owens, representative
to the legislature from the ninth dis

will not file, stated, “I am definitely
in the race and shall run for nomina

has been visited by a number- of dele

from our various churches, and some
of our professional men, expressing
a desn’e that I become a candidate
for re-electon- Mr- O’Brien has put at
my disposal his full cooperation and
support”
Admirable unity of purpose is
manifest amongst race Democrats of
the Ninth District. E^^y filing by
one white candidate for nomination
on the Democratic ticket apparently
has caused other democratic race as

“THE PRICE OF LOVE”'
MILDRED J. BRONSON
The Word “Love” has never been
explained* Out of millions that have
tried not two have been the same*”
Now Friends, you will have to go
along with me and bring along your
excess patience- As I a^n going to
talk this topic over with you in a very
plain and sensible way- Read my in
troduction over again- You can s. e
right, away that I am up against a
very tough one this time- Millions
have tried. Not two have been the
same- I am attempting to do what
millions have failed to agree upon
To really know the price of any
thing. you should know what it is
and the quality of the product- So I
must first try to explain to you what
love is- Here is the simplest defini
tion I can think of- As Christ said.
“Be Y# Equally Matched ” I take it
for granted that in this world there
is a person for every person and when
they meet, which I am sure is the
law of nature that they will, the
faith and confidence grows so strong
within them that this word love deve
lopes and unites the two together.
The branches of this unit grows
through the offsprings of the child
ren, because I am sure, if they are
equally matched, the children will
come up and that Father and Moth
er’s Love will continue on through
the ages
If this is true, than the price of
love is indeed a very high and always
a standard price. So much so that it
sometimes is paid for with death.
Love at first sight runs in my mind,
as if it is a bargain price- Sometimes
these affairs tutrm out to be the real
love, and maybe as I said, the one
that nature held in store for you
This would be a very small price at

first, but it maybe at the top market
in a short while
In cases where the Mother or Fath
a • walk off and leave home and child-\
ren to guide *h ir way through this
trying world without the guiding
hand of them was not equally match
ed and the price of love considered
very small to them
Then there is a chance for a person
to make the mistake of giving just a
simple sweetheart affair as a case of
lovr. This has happened and has gone
as far as marriage- After a short
while he or she begans to realize the
mistake
Here is wh.re the law steps in and
the narti'-s involv'd consider the price
of love very small inde d. In these
cases it is just a misunder
stand’ng or too young to realize the
vast difference b tween love and like.
We are supposed to like everybody,
but to love means that sclm: where a
pal or mate waits for you and when
they meet a real fcme love is formed,
and the nrice is to dear sometimes
until death.
Friends, do you think that a man
or woman that has united themselves
with the marriage vow, walk off and
leave everything, sometimes homes,
children and anythink that may hap
pen to be theirs was equally matched
and was meant for each oth r? I do
not. Because therte is always a way
to adjust things and if for nothing
else, bi|t the children's sake, you
would agree to continue on, God did
not intend for you two to go through
ife together- The price of this kind
of love is very small
Then the price of love is just the
same as goods on the 'market, cheap,
medium, high and standard prices.
Somegoods have a price and when
you see the brand you can almost tell
'the clerk the price- While over on
the bargain counter, the clerk has to
look at the tag to tell you the price
So with love- There are men and
women that delight In making love to
everyone they meet Then brag about
their* ability to win the confidence of
others. Here the price of love is
considered very cheap, and has caus
ed many heart to ache for young and
foolish persons.
When to live together of 20 or 30
years and on, happy and contented
with each ether, looking down upon
their children and grandchildren,
while they celebrate those silver and
goden anniversaries, the price of love
is always standard, and death is
usually the pay master
Remember my friends, that it
always pays to be careful when you
are shopping in a love shop- Don’t
be sold on some bad goods, or have
the prices put up on you, because they
see you are coming and cause you to
carry a burden upon your shoulder
for the rest of your life- It cost
such a small sufn to get into, but so
much to get out- Remember, it's
better to be slow, than to be sorry.
Take God’s word for it- “Be ye
equally matched.”
