They will deliver cards bearing details of the Commission's order that all electric heaters must be switched off daily from 11 am. to 5 pm. Monday through Friday. Penalties are pro- vided for non-compliance with this order. Meanwhile the use of electric power in Whitby continues to ride high above the "allowable" quota of 17,400 kwh daily as set out by the Ontario HEP.C. Tuesday was an average day and 24,640 kwh were used. As the days grow longer more power will be demanded for domestic use. Cutting the water heaters is ex- pected to save considerable power. Since there is no master switch controlling the heaters as in many other towns, Whitby users have to do their own individual switch- pulling. Cut-offs: which have been ex- pected daily have been avoided so far by the simple expedient of al- lowing the quota to be exceeded by some 20 percent daily. Just how long high Hydro authorities will allow this to continue, is not known, A FARM WAGES UP Ottawa, Sept. 23 -- (CP) -- Farm workers wages fn August were the highest ever recorded, the Bureau of Statistics reported Wednesday.

REGISTER THURSDAY for BALLET and TAP DANCING! Council Chambers, TOWN HALL IRENIE HARVEY'S SCHOOL A Whitby Whitby was a dark town last night. Someone did misunderstand Utility Commission's order about turning out every other light. There were large areas of the town with- out street lights at all and many complaints were registered. Super- intendent Herb Pringle said that this situation will be straightened out and some of these lights re- placed. s On Dundas Street West, from Stiner's there were no lights. On Brock North from Mary there were no lights at all. On Brock South from Jeff Martin's store to the harbour there were no lights. Wal= nut, Green, Henry and several oth- er streets did not have a single light, so far as this reporter could see. On Byron North there was one light. Public feeling is that someone had been over-enthusiastic or had not understood the Commission's order. Yesterday Hydro. employees had not yet got around to cutting the lights in the business section but this will soon be done, Mean- while, many citizens thought the cutting last night had been care ried beyond the bounds of reason.
