wise preserve order. Meanwhile
the strike situation has develop

HIGH SCHOOL TO MOVE
| TO ITS new HOME
Monday VIII Be Leaving Day.,
At CaldweI-Madiso High
Will Begin Work

Monday October 9th will be "Leav-
ing Day" at the Caldwell High
School. Caldwell High School has
been an institution in the citys life
for years. The 10:3O a. m. chimes
will ring out its life and ring in the.
life of the new Madison High School.
While Caldwell goes into history as a.
high school yet the institution is not
dead. 1t will live in the hearts of
those who drank wisdom at it's
fountains. 1t will pc remembered by
those whe were awakened in it's halls
by the call of ambition. It's memory
Will always be sweet to those who
look back with pleasure upon the
romances of youth.
AS Caldwell retires from the stage,
Madison makes her debut. While
many will experience a tinge of re-
gret at the passing of Caldwell, vet
it is to be hoped that the birth of
the Madison High School will mean
the dawn of a much greater day in
the educational life of Richmond. It
is to be hoped that Madison will not
only be a high school for Richmond,
but for all of Madison county and
that the boys and girls of the re-
motest districts will flock to it as
doves to their windows. It is to hoped
that it's courses of study will meet
the demands of the age; that they
will be practical and will offer know
ledge that will function in the adult
lives of the pupils; that the courses
of study will keep in tune with the
changing conditions of modern life.
1t is to be hoped that the Madison
High School will be known for its
splendid high school spirit; that the
high school life will be attractive and
pleasant; that the literary societies
will encourage literary attainment;
that the new gymnasium and the
spacious athletic field will offer
wholesome and stimulating athletics.
Vive la Madison High School. May
it grow and prosper, blossom and
fructify and be the mecca of delight
for the youth of our homes.
Monday morning at 1890 at the
Caldwell building the formal leave,
taking of the old quarters will be
held. High school students will rep
resent their classes with speeches on
this occasion. Mr.. Robert Malloy will
speak for the Seniors. The Juniors
will be represented by Miss Ray
Stocker. All will be delighted to
listen to Mr.. Lafon Wilson, who is
the chosen one for the Sophomores.
The Freshmen will have Miss Louise
Spears as their representative. The
public is cordially invited and re-
ouested to be present on this oc-
casion. Principal D. H. Starus will
have something to say that will be
especially interesting to the patrons.

statement made at the special
meeting of the City Council Fri
day evening by Mr.. Mcclellan, OF
the Kentucky Utilities Company
He has been canvassing the situ-
alton here this week, and said
that he had met with liberal re-
sponse from a majority Of the
business men of the city. He
felt that a strong local conurittee
might be able to make Up the bal
ance of the amount required
which is $500, with which to
purchase iron posts and lights
The council voted for appoint
ment of special committees by tic
Mayor to do further soliciting

Richmond rams who attended
the worlds series base ball games
in Cincinnati this week, had op-
portunity to see the exact type oi
light which is proposed to be
placed on the streets here, on a
number of Cincinnati's main busi-
ness thoroughfares. All were
greatly impressed with the splen-
did lighting facilities that they
afford. Stores and business
houses are lighted in a way which
attracts attention, and provides a
splendid advertisement for the
streets using them as well as the
city. The two standards in front
of the Kentucky Utilities Com
pany's Office here on Second
street when lighted up each eve
ming, show what may be expected
when the system is installed up
and down Main street.

FIRST BREACH IN
STEEL STRIKERS RANKS
(By Associated Press)


Admission by union leaders of
detection from the ranks of the
strikers in the Chicago and Beth
lehem districts was the principal
development today in the steel
strike. There is no indication
thus far~of a compromise on eth
er side over the main pointl at
issue, the right of employees to
engage in collective bargaining
through unions affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor.
In the Pittsburg and Youngstown
districts there was no material
change in the situation. At
Washington the Senate Labor
Committee resumed its investiga-
ton of the strike. T. J. Davies,
of New Castle, Pa, a tin worker,
was the first witness. He char
acterized the activities of union
organizers as having "all the ele-

PHONES MUST co
BACK TO old Rate
Council Again Refuses To Per-
NIT Company To Continue
Wartime Rate increases

After a lengthy discussion Of
the telephone situation in Rich
mond at the special meeting of
the City Council Friday night,
the council voted 4 to 1, to refuse
to permit the Cumberland Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company
Ito, continue the wartime rates,
after December 1st. This means
that the present increased rates
must be reduced back to what
they were before the war, after
that date.
City Attorney ]. P. Chc',a;,lt,
who was a member of the investi-
eating committee sent to look
into the books of the phone com
|pany, was i'll, and, could not be
present. The other two mem
bers of the special comm ttee did
not agree in their reports. Codn-
Gilman O'Neil recommended that
the phone rates be reduced
Councilman c. B. Terrill said that
the company's books showed that
it is losing about pei cent year
on its investment here, and he
felt that it should be entitled to
make a reasonable profit on its
investment.
Attorney ]. J. Gcecpleaf, lep-
resenting the telephone company
went over the situation from the
company's ,tahip.,;lt, and am
ed that the company is entitled to
make 6 per cent on its invest
ment of abo1. $l2e,C0 in X h.
mond. He said that the company
only wanted iair deal, such as
any other business ltarprise
Councilman Ro!ei. Golden said
he understood that the company
was to make improvements ir
the service in Richmond, but lie
could not see where that the corr
pany had spent any money for
Improvements or material, dur
ing the time it was claimed t,,at
higher prices for materials and
supplies made the increased rates
necessary.
The arguments were rather e.
tended. and covered much ground
but the majority of the council
could not be convinced that the
company is entitled to increased
rates with the present sort ot
service, so voted 4 to as fol-
lows: against the increase, Coun.
Gilman Golden, Mershon, Ali
man O'Neil; for the increase
Councilman Terrill. Councilman
Powell was not present.
