who had never realized the way in which
mountains, valleys, seas and rivers
came into being in ages past.
The presentation of diplomas was by
Henry Bond of Brattleboro, who spoke
of this graduation as the Great Divide

the man who Will be a power in the
future is not the man who tries to re-
duce the number of hours he works and
increase his pay, but the man who sets
his mark high, and strives hard to at
tain to it, and influences others to do
the same.
A prize was awarded to j. Franklin
Mccall for the highest mark in all
studies, and one to Ray Wilder as the
best al-around scholar. The university
prizes of 500 for scholarships went to
Anne Dauchy and Willis Taft.
Directly after these exercises came the
annual alumni banquet, at the close OF

Alabama's Telephone Service Needs

The Company has 5000 unified applica- tons for telephone service Tn the state of Alabama today.
 We can not furnish this service because we do not have the facilities. During 1919 our forecast for 1920 warned us to expect and prepare for this demand. This we did.
 During 1919 adequate facilities to meet the 1920 service demand were planned, the necessary money arranged for, their imme- diate construction authorized and orders for material and equipment placed with the manufacturers.
 To complete this 1920 construction pro- gram for Alabama, now under way, re- quires the expenditure of$1, ,431, 100000.
 The 9th and 9th advertisements of this series give the details of this construction program and the reasons why the material and equipment orders have not been filled
 Until these orders are filed sufficient fa- -cilities to supply this service can not be pro-, vided.
 The demand for service continues to grow.
 Modern conditions and business methods have made telephone service basic unit of commerce.
 As the population and business of the country grow, the need for telephone serv- Ice grows.
 No one doubts that the population and business of Alabama will continue to grow.
 Our forecast for the next five years serv- ice requirements shows that, at the end of 1925, there will be net gain of 19,100 tele- phones in this state.
 These forecasts are based upon popula- tion, present and prospective, and an analy- sis of business conditions, present and pros pective. The Company's present plant in Alabama was built upon such forecasts, and experience has proven their accuracy.
 To meet the almost certain demand for telephone service in Alabama during the next five years Gin addition to the 1920 con- struction program now underway, plant must be installed and expenditures must be made as follows:
