 INCREASE IN GAS
 RATES IN PHOENIX

The Pacific Gas and Electric com pany yesterday filed an application with the corporation commission for authority to increase it's gas rates. The company is asking for a 100 per cent increase on it's minimum charge cf 50 cents a month and an increase of 50 cents a 1000 cubic feet. and an additional rate of 20 cents a 1000 cubic feet for high pressure gas.
 The commission has set the hearing for November g and has sent notice to this effect to the chamber of com merce. the city clerk and the press. Anyone interested, however, may at tend the hearing at which the gas company will offer evidence in sup port of it's application for an advance in rates.
 Increase in the cost of fuel oil is set forth in the application as one of the grounds for higher gas rate. Other reasons given by the company in ask ing for an increase were that working capital is required above that allowed in former years, due to the increase in the volume of business; necessary de- preciation of present equipment; re- placement costs: making necessary an increas in revenue to compensate for fuel oil increase and allowing adequate depreciation and return.

NAVY WILL OPEN
 SPECIAL SCHOOLS

The navy department has advised the local recruiting station that spe- cial schools will be started at the United States naval training stations at San Francisco, Cal, and Newport, R. l., on January 10, 1921, for instruct ing enlisted men who desire to take examination for entrance to the United States Naval academy at Annapolis, Maryland.
 The secretary of the navy has au- thority to appoint 100 enlisted men annually to the naval academy and the schools are to give the men who desire to take the examination as much assistance as possible. The enlisted men must be under 20 years of age when they are appointed.
 This is one of the wonderful oppor- tunities young men have who enlist in the navy. Any further information concerning the Naval academy or the naval service can be obtained by ap- plying at the local navy recruiting sta tion, 35 East Washington street.

ADJUSTMENTS

"Oh Lady, Lady" which arrived the
season following "Oh Boys" phenome-
nal success. is an amusing musical
comedy. but not as entertaining as it's
predecessor.
"Oh Lady. Lady" deals with the trou-
b!cs OF an almost" bridegroom on the
eve OF his. wedding. and the near
smashing of his romance through the
unfortunate arrival OF an old sweet
heart. But the calamity Of all is the
plan which the hero and his chum
think up 20 frighten away the old
sweetheart before the bride can see
her. This we'll thought out plan not
only goes most dreadfuily askew. but
results in the loss Of his bride en-
tircly.
The terrible mix-ups which follow
and his final restoration in the hero
ines good graccs, form the principal
part OF the plot.
1t is amusing and quite entertain
ing, but not particularly out of the
ordinary. The music, of course. is one
OF its chief reasons for success. for
the Songs--"All the Little Ships" You
Found Me and Found YOU" and Not
ret"-have been popular, ever since
"Oh Lady, Lady" first hit Broadway.
The cast includes Pauline I;arric,
