LACE MAKING The process of lace making was invented at St. Annaberg in. Saxony, by Barbara Uttman, in 1561. It flourished in Holland nd Belgium for some time before its introduction into England, which tradition ascribes to some English refugees who settled in the village of Cranfield, Bedford.

A TIME OF TRIAL AND OF OPPORTUNITY To President Coolidge has iome the time of tpal and the time of opportunity. He is a man of silence and of decision, not easily swayed or misled. His intensive Americanism, a legacy from his New England ancestors. 10 doubt will continue to be the basis of his political creed. Ir .he school where Americanism is ‘aught and exemplified, he ha c been both student and teacher. He has, in the past, found som? 'nportunities to make practical demonstration of what by some -nay be regarded as mere theories. Now there is accorded to ■'im the chance to adant his simple creed to the Nation as a whole, and in some me*<nire, at least, to the entire world. No real American will regard ‘he nrospect apprehensively. In recent vears. perhans more generally than heretofore, there has been a conscious recommitment by the people of the United States to the fundamentals of democracy, for that love of country, honesty in the administration of government, free and °oual justice, and an adherence *0 the simple standards of brotherly love. President Coolidge, as the exponent of such a creed in opportunity to place himself as the lender of the great mass of the peonle but it tall be a "ringed road to travel. The House and Senate will undonhtedlv be reorganized and an “Fort made to placate the socalled radicals.

RATES AHJJJTILITIES By CHARLES L. HENRY, President 1 Indianapolis & Cincinnati Traction Co., and President Indiana Public Utility Association. The old story about Ben Franklin and the whistle tor which he paid a fabulous price carries some pertinent suggestions with regard to utility customers and the prices they pay tor service. The man who sold Ben the whistle and pvercharged him would never have made a good public utility operator. Ben did not say so, but this man must have been the loser in the end tor charging too much. Young Franklin certainly must have told all the boys in his neighborho<M about the price he paid, with the result that the merchant In all probability found his whistle business decidedly slow* thereafter. If he had been smart, or followed the custom that has been found to he the wisest, in connection with the utility business, he would have charged Ben Franklin only what his whistle was worth. This would certainly have left him a profit, and would have prevented young Franklin from giving the whistle business a black eye. Utility, managers and operators know it is common sense, as well as the basic principle of utility regulation, to charge only a fair price. This fair price is based on the value of the property, plus requirements for depreciation and maintenance. The rate charged for service is one calculated to allow the utility a return of six. seven or eight per cent, according to the times and circumstances. and from one to five or six per cent for depreciation charges according to standardized practice. Where this is done, the utility customer cannot complain. Where higher rates are sought, the utility damages its own business. A rate that is too high turns the customer against the utility and ultimately does the utility damage. On the other hand, where the rate is too low. and the customer gets all the best of the transaction, it is ultimately to the disadvantage of the customer. If low rates fail to provide a fair return and to provide a sufficient depreciation account, the utility property runs down and poor service Is the' result. In extreme cases this may be carried to the point where no service is possible. Therefore the customer suffers. The ideal situation Is one in which a fair rate to both the customer and the utility is charged. In Indiana, the situation as to rates and service has been better than in most states. Many customers have thought rates were too high, and many utility operators hate felt they were too low, especially through the ups and downs of tim .war and post-war period. The fact is that while very few if any' Indiana Utilities have made unduly high profits, practically none of them have been forced into receivership. During the war, and in the months following it, many Indiana utilities found themselves hard put to make ends ment on the low rates permitted, bnt careful management and adjustment to buxines conditions, coupled with increased rates in many eases, haa enabled these utilities In the main to pull through so that they are getting themselves on g decent footing. Only those surrounded by exceptional conditions have not as yet been able to reach favorable condition. If the public and the utility will alwnys get together In mutual understanding of the principle of a fair return, there will be understanding of the basic proposition that the best rate is the one that Insures good service and maintenance of the property by which this service is provided. Any higher or any lower rate will always be found a mistake in the long run. o Chicago hasAhe largest system of underground freight railways of any city in the world.

THE STOCKING OF FISH IN INDIANA WATERS Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 13.— Ever increasing interest is manifested by the people of the state in restocking with fish the public waters of Indiana, declares George N.

The close of the senior will see millions cf baby bas<bluegills, crappie, reck bass anc c pike per’h raised at the foir state hatcheries this summer liberated in public waters. “Our first consideration i c makinp - fish plants,” save Mr Mannfeld, “is to ascertain if the waters are unpolluted and suff’riently sunnlied with suitabk fnnd.
