In the 4th century, St. Nicholas the original Santa Claus dropped a bag of gold coins down a chim ney into a stocking a poor girl had hung by the fireplace to dry, thus initiating a lasting custom. Other colorful gift-giving traditions around the world are equally fascinating: Know in which country children go from house to house at night to collect their gifts?

BANQUET TlMl—Tfce picture above it a scene taken at the recant Hillside Band Parant't Fellowship Banquat held in the school cafatria. Th banquet i« one of the major events spon sored annually by the Band Parent's Organiation. The banquet was held in hon or of the many friends who help to support the various activities of the organization. Duke Power Asks General Rate Decrease CHARLOTTE Duke Power Company this week asked the utilities regulatory commissions of both Carolinas for permis sion to chop its charges for electricity by over $1 miilion per year. The rate reduction will be the company's sixth since Jan uary 1960. The proposed cut will become effective January 1, 1966. A breakdown on the classes of service to share in the re quested reduction is as fol lows: Residential service, $671,000; Municipal Street Lighting Serv ice, $283,000; and Total-Elec tric General Service, $93,000. Duke spokesmen regarded the change in street lighting rates, plus a company proposal to modernize street lighting, to be the most important of the rate reductions as it in volves not only a reduction in costs, but the furnishing of more light, in many cases, for the lowered charge. The new rates couple a re duced monthly charge for mer cury vapor lights with an offer to change all incandescent lights within Duke's "20,000 square mile service to mercury vapor. The company said tjhat it would change exisiting; incan descent street lights to the mercury at its expense. This would involve replacing over 40,000 street lighting fixtures throughout the company's 50- county service area at a cost of about $3 million, and would take about two years to com plete. The reduced charges, however, -will be effective on January 1, 1966. The mercury lights will re duce cost to the cities and will provide, on the average, 35 per cent more light for the lower cost. Ninety-three per cent of the street lights on the Duke system will be affected by the new rates. The company thinks that its new program of more light for legs money will assist cities now trying to raise their street light standards to deter crime and accidents. Under Duke's street lighting service, cities pay a flat month ly rat« based on the size of the street light. Duke Power fur nishes and installs all fixtures, provides the electricity, main tains the system, and makes lamps replacements as neces sary. Ninety-eight cities and towns in North Carolina and 52 in South Carolina will receive re ductions in their annual street lighting bills. The savings for the individ ual customer affected by the Residental Service reduction! will be small, but continues the 'rend of lower electric costs. This will come to more than 'wo-thirds of a million dollars systemwide. Since 1999 Duke Power ha' wved its customers several million dollars through lower- Sr. Citizens Honor Mesdames Hatfie Meadows and A.
