The Cadets and the Midshipmen are to be given “shore leave" tonight and elaborate plans have been made for their entertainment. There was very little betting on the game. Practically every one thought the Army would win heonipe it had a foster and nmr“ experienced team than the Navy and had more individual stars in Oarbisch, Wilson, Wood and Yoemans. The regular players of both squads were said by the coaches to he m ; good condition. No official predict : tions were made.

(One of a series of messages on the subject of public service.) ONE of the many encouraging signs of the times is the neverceasing growth in demand for electric light and power. It is a sure index of community progress. During 1923 the nation's electric service industry spent $750,000,000 for new construction. And new needs are constantly developing. In Indiana the Interstate Public Service Company has kept pace with the industry’s general advance. Acquiring new properties, adding to service facilities, extending our lines to meet new calls for power and light, this business continues to forge ahead. The Company’s gross income for 1923, including income from additional properties acquired during ths year, was nearly 50 T greater than during 1922. Net earnings increased over 48 : o. This established business, supplying essential service in 107 communities, affords unusual opportunities for safe, profitable investment.
