At the Teachers Convention in Mil
wallkee, last Friday evening, in a con-
test Of sixth grades in sightreading
and music memory, the Wauwatosa
representatives won second place. We
may be justly proud of our grade mu-
sic when in competition with fourteen
teams we win second place in the state
in both sightreading and music mem
DRY. When we consider that we were
in competition with cities like Milwau-
kee, Racine, Kenosha, and Waukesha,
which have many more children from
which to select, our success was even
more significant
The Wauwatosa team consisted Of
the following students: Margaret Wig
dale, Grace Hall, Jane Stauff, Jean
Lillibridge, billiard Hanson, and Ned
Mum. They were selected by tryouts
from pupils of the Sixth grades of the
Washington, Central, Aetna Park, and
Lincoln Schools.
The offset of contest of this sort
is to incite = keener interest in those
activities which are considered essen
tials in a musical education; namely
the ability to read at sight and inter
pref music material, and recognize
standard compositions with their com
posers.
In view of this fact the sixth grades
of Wauwatosa will have a contest
similar to that one held during the
convention, sometime during the Ma
tional Week of Song, in February. We
appreciate very much the cooperation
of parents, teachers and private music
teachers in helping to make this
contest a success.

nanCing This
Growth

One of the wonders of
today is the amazing
growth of the electric
service industry. Dur
ing the first nine months
of 1922 the number of
electric service customers
served by The Milwaukee
Electric Railway & Light
Co. increased from 94,797
to los, 494--a gain of TO-
697, or 11.2 per cent.
During the same nine
months the Company sold
217,403,001 kiI0watt
hours of electric energy,
as against 226,7S9,404
during the twelve months
1921-gaining at the rate
of more than % per cent
over last year.
Passenger travel on the
COnpany's city, suburban
and interurban electric
railways, supplemented
by our new feet of seven
ty motor busses Operat-
ing in city and inteTalban
service, also shows a gain
over last year.
During the same nine
months more than 5000
Milwaukee and Wisconsin
men and women helped to
finance this growth by
purchasing S shares of
the COmpany's cumula-
tive preferred stock. In
vestors who paid all cash
for their shares are draw
ing cash dividends paid by
check every three months.
Those who buy on month

We are now selling the

Possibility that the Hall-Aills murder
