NEED WATER POWER
FOR THE INDUS TR|ES

ATLANTA, Ca, April 17.-Atlanta
and other Georgia cities will have no
additional power to drive the wheels
of industry unless the local companies
are able to increase their supply by
developing water powers in this terri
tory, and this cannot be done without
increased rates to provide for increas-
ed wages, increased cost of materials
and equipment, and in creased costs Of
operation. Atlanta real estate men,
who are planning great drive to
bring news industries to the city, are
very much concerned over the situa-
tion.
Generally speaking, business men
here who have investigated the situa-
tion express the opinion that benefits
of interurban street car and electric
light and power service cannot and
will not be extended to the homes of
the people in the rural sections un-
less the state is governed by policy
of allowing the public utilities to earn
a revenue sufficient to provide for ex-
tensions and developments. Just at
this time peculiar situation exists on
account of the war, which has raised
all costs from so to 400 per cent, in
Guiding very much higher wages paid
by public utilities.
Coal has gone UP 100 per cent;
steel rails so per cent; copper wire
81 per cent; oils, spikes, creosote,
cement and poles approximately 80
per cent In the fact of such in
creases, and the necessary increasa IS
il payrolls due to the higher cost of
living, it is impossible for public
utilities to secure capital for improve
ments and extensions unless they can
show investors that they are to be al
lowed sufficient increases in their
rates and fares to warrant profitable
operation.

II has been charged that we are
boarding children and getting rich
by so doing. In reply to this | will
state that board is being paid for
about twenty-five inmates. These
are children of parents who have
met with disaster of some kind, who
need temporary help but are able
to pay for it. In such cases we deem
it no more than right that we should
do so. Ninety per cent of the in
mates here are strictIy charity cases.
Every cent received from boarding
children is credited to the funds of
the Home the same as any other
money received here. l shall be
pleased to show any one our board
records and the reports in the Home
paper in which credit is given for
these sums If these statements are
found to be incorrect in any partic-
ular, l will give one hundred dollars
personally to any church or charit-
able institution in your town or
county.

ton to this great work.
The Home has gone through many
trials and tribulations. 1t has been
only because of the loyalty Of its

REGARDING THE CHRISTIAN
HOME ORPHANAGE OF
COUNCIL BLUFFS, IOWA
To the Editor of the Republican,
Audubon, Iowa,

hO'"r
Dear Sir:-During the past week
1t has come to my knowledge that
certain parties have made accusa-
tions against the Christian Home Or
phanage which, if left unchallenged
will no doubt work harm in the
minds of some people.
We believe that all old friends of
the Home, who know of the 35 years
of hardships and struggle, of the
sacrifices that have been made, Will
agree with us that the Home has
proved itself.
However, we deem it our duty to
make this public statement and ask
you to give this article space in the
first possible issue of your paper.
1t has been charged that the Home
does not have the number of inmates
claimed In reply to this | wish to
state that for more than two years
the daily population of the Home has
not been under 240 inmates. | will
give personally one hundred dollars
to any church or charitable organi-
cation in your town or county if this
statement is proved to the contrary.

FAMOUS KENTUCKY
MANSION RUINED BY KIDS
Louisville Youths Ransnck Famous
Norman Mansion and DO
$4,000 Damage.

Louisville, KY, December 21-The
old Norman residence, unoccupied
since the death of c. p. Norman, two
years ago, has been the prey of youth
full bandits for weeks, who have carted
away imported tapestries, rare china,
old wines, jewelry and other booty
worth thousands of dollars, and dam
aged luxurious furnishings to the eX-
tent of additional thousands. Discov-
cry of the systematic depredations was
not made until today, when police
were notified that boys had been seen
lurking around the famous mansion.
Two boys, apprehended by detec-
tives, boosted of the part they had
played in the ransacking of the house
and implicated three other youths, all
of whom were arrested. Some of the
stolen property was recovered from
the attic of a house which the boys
used as their "clubroom" One of the
boys when arrested had toy pistol in
holster at his belt. The pistol shoots
water.
The youth wantonly defaced the his
toric furniture and fixtures. Arthur
Board, one of the Norman heirs, es-
timated the damage at 100000.

MAYSVILLE HIGH WINS
OPENER FROM MANCHESTER
NJ. II. 3. Five Takes First Basket Ball
Game Of the Season From Ohio
Team Friday Evening.

The Maysville High School Basket
Ball team which has been showing
good form and speed in practise for
the past two weeks, played its first
game of the season in the local gym
nasium last night and won the honors
for Maysville by defeating a five from
the Manchester High School by score
of 3S to 10.
The game was very well attended
and was well played. All during the
battle the locals showed splendid team
work which will in most every case
win. Manchester has a team of
which they need not be ashamed but
the locals just had them bested a lit
tie in most every way.
The next game of the season will be
played next Friday evening with Sc
lect team of the alumnae.
The lineup in last nights game
was:
Tulley, center; Dawson and Kennen
forward and Collins and Dickson
guards. William Mathews played for

INSTRUMENTS FOR The
SCHOOL BAND ARE COMING
Director Young Of the Maysville
School Band Reports That So In
struments VIII Be Here In
Less Than Ten Days.

Prof. Young, director of the Mays
Vile School Band, has just returned
from Cincinnati where he had gone
esl ecially to place orders for instru-
ments to be used in the Maysville
BOYS Band and to urge the manufac-
tut ers that they give the Maysville
gin at practise in short order.
Prof. Young returns to Maysville
gr atty encouraged. He says he
RI. ED orders for Sc instruments and
TIL he has the promise of the manu-
fat curing companies that the instru-
ments will be in the hands of the
20 ing musicians in less than ten days.
Immediately upon receipt of the in
struments work at practise will begin.
1t is more than likely that Prof. and
Mrs. Young will use the second floor
of the Swift Drug Store building for
their class work and the High School
auditorium will be used for the as
semble of the whole band. Prof.
Young's system of teaching is to take
two or three boys each hour after
school has closed each day and give
them personal instruction until they
have learned enough about music and
their instruments to bring the whole
band together
