Now, ere is one for the young folks:
What is the difference between an olive and a water
melon—one is green without, being green within, and the
other is green, without being green within. Oh, slush.
And here is one for the grownups to ponder over:
If the companies serving the following towns and cities
are only allowed to make a fair return on the monev in
vested, where the output in electric current runs up into
the million kilowatt hours per month, how can a small nlil
ity in Alaska, with a total output of not over twenty thou
sand kilowatt hours hope to exist on the rate that this
company is going to put in force December 1st?
But, then, it is outside capital and we don’t have 10
worry about how it is squandered.
