' TPWT^TffiKm^yitiTigmggiiiiWiiiif ¦ i JUST RIGHT There U a certain point at which anything is Just right: not enough is bad, too much is worse. The good cook browns the roast to a turn. The wise mother rebukes and praises just to the right degree. Tlie good wife is not too cold, not too loving—she's Just right. The good friend knows how to compliment us Just "to the saturation-point." Thc good tragedian is Just tragic enough, and the good comedian not too funny. There is just one exact place on the violinstring where you must put your finger in order to produce the perfect tone. Don't speak too low ar you will be a nuisance because you will annoy those who try to hear you; and if you speak too loudly you will also be a nuis¬ ance, for another reason. The art of life is to eat, drink, laugh, cry, work and play, love and hate—Just right. I read somewhere the happy phrase: "He was dressed more like a gentleman than a gentleman ought to dress." —DR.

This problem is not primarily one of munklpai or private ownership, but rather one of the Isolated plant as against the central station which ita accompanytag high tension lines. There Is a question whether the in¬ creased economy of the large central station ever compensated tor the ex¬ tra cost of expensive equipment and costly transmission lines except in the cases where this service was sub¬ stituted for very small obsolete steam plants. Be that as It may, to¬ day the so-called superpower plant has a close competitor in the mod¬ erate-size Isolated plant and even the very small plant can compete with these large steam plants.

The wise mother rebukes and praises just to the right degree. Tlie good wife is not too cold, not too loving—she's Just right. The good friend knows how to compliment us Just "to the saturation-point." Thc good tragedian is Just tragic enough, and the good comedian not too funny. There is just one exact place on the violinstring where you must put your finger in order to produce the perfect tone. Don't speak too low ar you will be a nuisance because you will annoy those who try to hear you; and if you speak too loudly you will also be a nuis¬ ance, for another reason. The art of life is to eat, drink, laugh, cry, work and play, love and hate—Just right. I read somewhere the happy phrase: "He was dressed more like a gentleman than a gentleman ought to dress." —DR.

There Is a question whether the in¬ creased economy of the large central station ever compensated tor the ex¬ tra cost of expensive equipment and costly transmission lines except in the cases where this service was sub¬ stituted for very small obsolete steam plants. Be that as It may, to¬ day the so-called superpower plant has a close competitor in the mod¬ erate-size Isolated plant and even the very small plant can compete with these large steam plants.
