her choice readings OF which she has
few equals as an eloqutionist in the
country. The several readings of
tragedy and drama were indeed in
spring as well as interesting and it
was quite late hour before the
company would allow the time for
departure to come. Delicious block
cream and cake were served and all
enjoyed the repast greatly. Mr.. and
Mrs. Quaintance know just how to
entertain and they are always ready
to give time and attention to those

their wish was for a repetition of the

REVIVAL GROWS IN IN
TEREST.

The meetings at the Cumber-
land Presbyterian Church are be-
coming quite interesting. The
methods of work of the preachers
and singer are free from all SEN
sationalism and their deep earn
estness show them to be men
who are in close touch with God.
If there is not great revival and
many souls borne into the King
dom of God it will not be their
fault. Their work is not along
denominational lines, they be-
lieve that all christians should
come together when there is a
effort being made to turn the
steps of men unto the pathes of
righteousness and solicit the aid
OF all people who are willing to
give some of their time to make
the world better.

COMMISSIONERS SHOULD
TAKE ACTION SAYS COUNCIL

| Evening Telegram: The petition
| signed by numerous citizens to the
commissioners asking for reduction
in the light and water rates which
will come before that body tonight
INDICATES unrest, and the commits
sioners should take some steps to re-
lieve this condition.
Since the commissioners have TAX
en- charge of the municipal plant, the
light and water biils have increased
from SO per cent to 100 per cent and
the people can't understand such an
increase in their expenses with no
increase in the consumption.
One citizen told me few days ago
that his bill for last month with
economical use of both light and wa
ter was $12 for family of medium
size.
The question now in the minds Of
| the people is, why is it necessary for
|usi to be taxed for a necessity that is
supposed to be furnished us from our
own plant at approximately the cost
of production?
There is something radically
wrong or such an increase in the
light and water expenses would not
exist, and all good citizens should
have confidence in our commission
erS and help them to solve the trou-
BILE and correct it.
We are about to vote on bonds to
put the plant in condition to furnish
light and water at very low cost of
production, and we all know that we
must do something to relieve the
condition or we will be forced to sell
the plant to a private corporation,
unless We can get financial aid to re-
lieve the condition.
The commissioners should be frank
and render a statement to the people
showing exact conditions and what
they are doing to relieve these con-
ditions, and all fair-minded should
help them in every reasonable way
to solve the problem.
1t is going to be exceedingly hard
to carry bonds by a vote of the peo-
pie to renew their taxes for addi-
tional interest when the present ex-
cessive water and light rates are in
existence, and already number of
our best citizens are advocating sell
ing the plant on account of the eX-
cessive light and water rates.
If we lived and made money before
these rates were put in effect, why
should we find it necessary to in
crease them in 1914 and levy a
monthly tax for light and water to
the detriment of all the people?
