Hanover Man Wins His Point On Water Heater Rebate
Hanover residents learn the Ontario Hydro Commission will rebate 50 percent of installed water heater costs, with about 24 580 heaters in Ontario and a $500 000 hit to Hydro contingency. The Hanover drive began in 1932 to boost heater sales at a flat rate, installing heaters at no local cost with billed charges shared by the Ontario Commission. After years of dispute over back charges, Kalte and Hanover commissioners prevailed at three to four meetings, leading to the 50 percent rebate and continuation of the Hanover program to fairness and peak load relief.

Weeping Willow Story Tied to Pope and Linnaeus
A Canadian account traces the weeping willow to an English poet Alexander Pope and a box of fruit from England. Gardener George A. Stevenson recounts Pope planting a slip from that box, leading to a lineage of willows across North America. It notes a British officer bringing Pope’s slip to America during the Revolution and mentions Linnaeus naming willow traits.
