An enthusiastic movement to obtain a pipe organ for the church was started and it is probable that enough funds will be secured to purchase one before the arrival of the new pastor. The Rev. Mr. Davis will not take charge of the church until some time in March as he has been conducting revival services in an Ohio town.

WHY LOUISVILLE CANCELLED GAME The game scheduled for next Saturday night between the "Y" five and the team hailing from Louisville at the latter place, has been cancelled, for the evident reason that the Blue Brass bunch became a trifle scared, on hearing the record of the local team. Early in the season the southern outfit wrote Manager Dunning for a booking saying at that time that they desired a game with a team that would guarantee them a good game, as the fans of that place desired a game with a first class team. Dunning replied by sending the Kentuckians a record of the games played this year. A day later the local manager was called up over the wire and the following conversation took place: "Is this the manager of the team that, beat Earlham?" "Yes." Tm sorry to say that Louisville has a conflict in its schedule and can't play your team. Good-bye."

WILL GAS RATES INCREASEBECAUSE (Continued from Page One.)

did not represent past mistakes In management or other things which should not enter Into plant valuation. Valuation Overlooked. So far as known the state commission never made an effort to get at the real valuation of the plant of the Light, Heat & Power company, as it is doing in the case of the local water works company, and yielded to the pleas of the Light, Heat & Power company that its old bonds and notes were maturing and a new $850,000 bond issue to retire them was imperative without getting down to the real facts in the case. The action of the commission in authorizing the issue of $850,000 in bonds is taken to mean the commission believes the value of the plant is in excess of that amount. During the negotiations for natural gas the question was brought up by the Light, Heat & Power company that it must continue its artificial gas plant in order to be ready to serve artificial gas when the natural gas failed. Outstanding Stock. The company claimed that since this was necessary it should be allowed to carry the valuation of the artificial gas plant as a part of the whole valuation and on which amount the rates for natural gas and electricity may be fixed, at some future date. Besides the amount of the bond issue there is $300,000 in common stock and $85,000 in preferred stock outstanding. The company made a statement to the commission that it considered the property of the company to be worth $1,110,813.43 at the time it took over the contract for natural gas. Many Richmond people believe. It is very unfortunate for local citizens If the state commission, by its authorization of the $850,000 bond issue, has recognized a ficticious valuation of the company's plant. If the company by showing to the commission that its revenue from electricity and natural gas is insufficient to meet its operating expenses and the interest on its new bond issue, which at 5 per cent, would amount to $42,500 annually, it would be up to the commission to provide ways and means for the company to make a profit on its investment. Affects City Rates? The city is now petitioning the commission to have its electric lighting and power rates reduced on an average of 25 per cent, and the question now arises would the commission authorize this additional competition to the Light, Heat & Power company, if it could show its revenues to be insufficient, or would it permit the city to lower its rates and authorize the company to maintain its present electrical rates but increase its natural gas rates? If the Light, Heat & Power company uses the money derived from the sale of its new bond issue, which at 90 cents on the dollar would net $765,000, to retire its old bonded and note indebtedness there would be a surplus of $65,000, which would probably be used for paying interest and for recent improvements. SUE TO COLLECT MONEY FOR COAL John Liebhardt and William Lovett brought suit against George N. Syijder in circuit court for the recovery of $68.84 alleged by the plaintiffs to be due for 46.000 pounds of coal delivered to Snyder and not paid for. In the United States cities there was last year one bank to every 9,700 people, and in Canadian cities one to every 3,100 persons. In the United States there are 27,000 banks, or a bank to every 3,407 persons. Children Cry The Kind You Have Always

THE THEATRES

TbVSign of the Pour," by Conan Doyle In which he presents Sherlock Holmes, was offered last night at the Murray Theatre and played to a capacity house. Guy Harper is with the company again and his popularity was demonstrated last evening by the applause which greeted him upon his first appearance on the stage In the part of "Wiggins." After the performance the Country Store was held and many useful articles were given away. A small boy was given a sack of flour and an order for a ton of coal was given a little girl. Interest centered In the baby given away last night. It was presented to Clell Morrow and was a baby Pig. The regular matinees will be given this week. Next week "What Happened to Jones" will be presented. STARVING DEPENDENTS IMPEL JEMPLOYED (Continued from Page 1.) rather starve than ask for help, but that he was not alone, that he could not see his wife and children die of starvation. Mrs. Candler told him of a farmer several miles from the city who needed a hand. He walked to the farm and back without delay to get the job. He got it. Money Is Needed. Because of the great increase in the demands the funds of the organization are running low. Last month nearly $400 was required to pay the expenses. This month much more has been spent. Officials fear there is not enough money to pay the bills. They are hoping the Grand Charity concert will help tide over the season. Not only are many people in actual need said Mrs. Candler, but there are others who will be if conditions do not improve. The small grocers who have been carrying many of their customers whom they know will pay as soon as they find work are beginning to feel the pressure. The purpose of the Associated Charities is not to make beggars, but to help people to retain their self respect and instill, where necessary, the desire to earn an honest living. Many persons who give are hurting the recipients of their aid more than they are helping them, she pointed out. The giver does not know the conditions in the home and encourages begging. As an example one family has been begging clothes of sympatheic, charitably inclined persons, and burying them when they are dirty instead of washing them. Mrs. Candler's observations are corroborated by Township Trustee Howarth, who reports more calls for assistance than ever before in his experience. Many of the appeals are from persons who have always been consideredself supporting. The office is assisting more than ever before.
