The reduc¬ tion will mean a saving ot over |1500 per year to the :;as u.-< rs of Nazareth based on the amount of gas consumed during the past year. With increased consuinption. the reduction \\ill of course be greater. The vote between tht; two rales was laruidy ia i':ivor of Haie "B.

This will give a reduction to all customers using more than 200 Cu. Ft. per month, and the customer using just 200 Cu. Ft. per month will have his present bill increased by 10 (ents per month. Due to a typo¬ graphical error in las: week's issue, it would appear that this rate made an increa.se of lo cents per month to ail customers, vhitli. of course, was not forrect- T!io "Item" has figured out the comparison in cost between the pres¬ ent price and the new price ot gas, and for the information ot its read¬ ers shows il herewith, Xo- ot Cu.
