plained that there has been
an attempt to arrive at a
rate that would be fair to
the Housing Authority and
to the Town of Edenton as
well as our other electric
customers. He pointed out
that the Elizabeth City
electric rate 9-A has been
accepted by the Depart
ment of die Housing and
Urban Development for the
Elizabeth City operation.
It was decided by the
Board to adopt the Eliza
beth City’s rate 9-A, the
same as now being applied
to .their Housing Authority,
for use by the Housing
Authority and to apply the
rate in the same manner
now being done in Eliza
beth City.
It was also decided by
the Board to offer to the
Edenton Housing Authority
the Elizabeth City water
and sewer rate and to bill
it in the same manner as
now being done in Eliza'
beth City. It was suggest
ed that Mr. Hines accom
pany the members of the
Housing Authority in At
lanta to discuss this mat
ter with utility officials
there and to try to sell the
Department of Housing and
Urban Development on a
project that would be all
electric.

How I learned to wheel and deal
I fell in love with a car last week, So I went to my car dealer and told
hut I didn’t really think I could afford the salesman I wanted to buy a car from
to buy it. But after talking with the him and I’d like to finance it on the
folks at Peoples Bank, they showed me Peoples Plan. ‘i
hov\ I could afford to buy a car financed . And that, friends is how I learned to
t he Peoples Bank way. get my wheels for a real deal.”

WHICH HEAT
IS BEST
FOR YOU?
Coal and oil companies, as
well as gas and electric
utilities work continually
to convince the American
home owner that he should
use their respective fuel to
solve his heating problem.
To a great extent, the ex
perts agree the majority
of their claims are valid.
The determining factor,
they say, is the individu
al’s usage of household
space and the family’s pat
terns of living.
It is generally agreed
there is no one fuel that
is satisfactory for all
households and all fami
lies. Since the source of
the fuel itself may well
prejudice the advantages
of it, American-Standard
suggests that the Ameri
can householder would do
better to consult the man
who is responsible for the
installation and efficiency
of the heating unit that
uses the fuel, i.e. his
plumbing or heating con
tractor. r ., .
Parents might do well to
take a tip from their
children while driving. A
survey recently taken by
Liberty Mutual Insurance
Companies indicates that
approximately twice as
many teenagers use seat
belts as their parents.
