A. nen," declared Principal Frank Pickell in a short address.

VThe Y has a splendid moral effect j

upon young men. There are too mani,

Clparet smokers in the high school

mid J believe if more boys become as

sedation members this number would

fie reduced. Clgaret smoking is detrimental! to scholarship." L. A. Schwcn, athletic director of

the association, told the forty-four

young men that exercise and deep orrating are essential to proper development of body and mind.

CITY PLANT

Continued From Page One. 191C. was $186,657,32 of which J45.000.00 was obtained frbm the ac

quisition of the private plant For these twelve months our average income per K, W, R. sold was ,0310, 1,410,658 K. W. H. was the amount of busiae&s we received from the private plant for the nine months' operation, which we received $45,000.00. " t Report Shows the Cost Our cost per K. W. H. generated and delivered wa,s .01236 which would make the total operating expense' of the business we obtained from , the private plant $17,435.73. In order not to .get confused with, our annual report which shows our cost per K. W. H. generated and delivered .011135; this, however, represents the amount of money expended during the year. The actual operating expense fpr the year 1916 should be $81,874.64, which we show in our report $74,660.32, The difference between those two items is coal. We actually paid out $23,479.95 for coal during th year 1916, but the actual amount used at boilers was $30,694.27 which will make a difference in the actual amount of coal purchased and the actual amount used of $7,214.32. The reason that, we did not show this in our Annual report was because .we had to show the actual amount of money expended, irrespective of the! amount of coal consumed. But in order to get the true, actual conditions, we are taking the operating expenses Jn this instance just as they actually! are, irrespective of the amount , of I money expended. " ; Plant Shows Big Profit. ; . After deducting . the operating expense from the additional load that; we obtained from the .private plant, you will note that we have a profit of 27,564.27 for the nine months operation, or 17 per cent, plus on the amount paid for their property.

The records will show , during the condemnation proceedings that the, .city stated tt they would make, at least. $27,000.(M a year on the business that the city would obtain by acquiring the private plant, and you will ; note that the city has made good its ; promise to the people. And just as soon as we get the new equipment ; that Js now being installed at our plant j In operation, we will be able to make a greater profit from the business that' we haye obtained from the acquisition i

of the private plant and also, a still greater profit from the combined business of our utility. - " .Production Cost Lowered. As you will note, the cost of production is a little over .006 per K. W, H. and we are hoping after we get

the new ; equipment in operation to i bring the cost of production down to t

h004 pef K. W. H. at the switchboard.

We have sold $23,549.77 worth 0r equipment from the private plant Hojvever, we have not received full payment yet, but a substantial amount has been paid on the old equipment sold. .. We have every reason to believe that the city, including the building, will realize from the sale of the old equipment that it does not use $40,000.00, which would leave an investment of $172.89100. Out of the above named amount the plant has used in connection . with the city plant v$75,000.00 worth of equipment which mostly constituted wire, meters, poles and some generating apparatus, e'tc. Realize on Equipment Sale. I After adding $75,000.00 for used

material to the city plant and $40,-.

000.00, the amount that we will realize from the sale of the old equipment, is ?115,000.00; and subtracting $115,000.00 from. $212,891.00, the total amount paid for the private plant, would make J97.89l.00 which the : city paid for $60,000.00 worth of business annually. And as stated above, we have made over $27,000.00 in nine months operation of the business from the private plant, or iJ7 percent plus on the actual investment of $97,891.00. You will also, note in the report that the operating expenses this year have been made heavier than any other year before by paying to the city part sal-

' Thus, you will readily see from this report that every promise taat the city made to the people has been more than ; fully realized. . i

Says Simple Remedy Prolonged His Life

Dr. CaldweiPs Syrup Pepsin Effective as a Remedy for Constipation Among older people the various organs of the body have a tendency to slow up and weaken, and this is VHtially first manifest in a pronounced inactivity of the bowels. . Good health is dependent on regularity in this important function; whenever' there is the slightest indication of constipation a mild laxative thou Id be taken to relieve the congestion and dispose of the accumulated waste. Cathartics or purgatives should not be employed, however; these are too violent in action and their effect is only temporary. A mild laxative such as the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Tcpain. is the ideal remedy. It is gentle in its action, bringing relief in an easy, natural manner, without griping or other pain or discomfort, is pleasant to the taste, and can be obtained in any drug store. Mr, Robert LeForgee, 918 Kirkwood Boulevard, Davenport, Iowa, says he has always had a battle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in the house for ihe past eighteenyears, and that by using it occasionally as the need arises, and In this way keeping his
