Adjustments in gas rates to NIPSCo customers, usually upward and sometimes downward. have occurred and will continue to occur as rates from five NIPSCo pipeline suppliers qhange. as they have and will under the provision of the Nat ional Energy Act. This is the ninth purchased gas adjustment filed by NIPSCo this year. Six have been increases and three have been decreases. In May the company also filed for a decrease in gas storage charges which became effective in July. The net effect of these adjustments to the average residential customer using gas for home heating and other purposes is an annual increase ol $86.87 from $425.85 at the beginning of the year to $512.72 with this petition. NIPSCo said despite the substantial increase in this tracking adjustment, natural gas continues to be the least expensive fuel in northern Indiana for home heating and other household uses.

Block, a researcher at the University of Missouri, says onions contain a curious chemical propanethial soxide. This chemical forms a strong acid when dissolved in water. Block says. The researcher says when a person cuts an onion, the acidforming chemical is released and then dissolves in the water in the eye of the onion-cutter. The eye water then turns to acid and tears come quickly from the tear glands to wash it away. Block says you can avoid tears simply by refrigerating onions before slicing into them.

More Budget Cuts During the meeting the town made additional cuts in the budget after Clerk-Treasurer Betty Dust stated the budget was still $12,477 over the maximum amount the state has indicated is allowed. The additional amount came from OASI and unemployment costs, engineering fees and insurance. The board cut the police budget back $5,000, originially put in for a new police car in 1980; and equipment allowances were cut from the fire department’s budget for a total cut in the budget of $7,800. The budget is now approximately $5,677 over the maximum to be allowed. Much discussion followed as to what funds could be cut if it became necessary to eliminate the $5,677.

What Is Charity? It's silence when your words would hurt. It's patience when your neighbor is curt. It's deafness when the scandal flows. It's thoughtfulness for another's woes.
