when you stop to think Of it, Missouri
really won the war, and if that is not proof
positive that she is some state, we dent

What 1t Costs to Grow

Every time the United States gains a million
in population, the public utilities have to spend
seven hundred million hard, round dollars to keep
their plants in shape to serve the additional sub
scribers created by that increase in population.
Chairman Calder of the Senate COMMITTEE on Re
construction and Production made this estimate in
Q recent publication by the committee.
That figure represents seven hundred dollars
for each person added to the population, or three
thousand five hundred for a family Of five added.
Because the development referred to was ser
iously curtailed by the war, utility companies will
have to put two billion, instead of seven hundred
million, into their business to pay for new con-
s~tructicn, now required.
AS the only place this huge sum can come
from is investment in utility stocks and bonds,
investors are going to be offered two billion
dollars, worth Of utility stock to pay for the need
ed extensions.

 CARR TO SING

The "Qui Vive'' club of Birmingham have made arrangement with MT. Carr to present Tennyson's s.In Memoriam" set to music by Liza Lehman, com poser of the Persian Garden" The work will be given Thursday after noon. April 21, at 3:30 o'clock in Cable hall. Miss Minnie McNeilrs boundless capacity for work and penetrating in- telligence will share with MT. Carr in making this event one long to be remembered. When the cycle had its first hearing, MT. Hubbard of the Chi cago Tribune was very enthusiastic, as judge by the following review:
 The cycle is given in II parts with out pause The composer has scored the entire work in as heavy a manner as either the piano or voice can carry. though enough contrast is brought to prevent any lack of effect The work contains some rarerly beautiful in- spirations and tasteful effects in sug- gesuon, such as the wild bird trill." and the falling of rain, all finely in- vented and introduced in a manner impossible of giving offense. MT. carr IS the possessor of a powerful voice under high state of training and his dramatic force is exceptional. |. The purely musical parts of the cycle were caught with unfailing boise and great depth of feeling, so that the audience was held as under a spell.''
