INDIANA CATCHES
STEP IN MARCH OF
MODERN PROGRESS
New System of Central In
diana Electric Company
Marks Advancement,

Indiana, though very progressive in
many respects. is somewhat tagging
In the super power system of elecri-
fication. Under old methods, electri-
f1cation was confined to a number of
small independent plants. soon out
grown in the rapidly increasing popu-
lation. and modern civilization, the
basis Of which is electric power, which
demands, instead an immense uni
fed system that covers extended
areas.
This. in a word, describes the pur-
pose of the Central Indiana Power
Company in constructing through the
Indiana Electric Corporation the huge
power plant in the heart of the Indi-
ana coal fields on the Wabash River
where adequate supplies Of fuel and
water are most accessible at a mini
mum cost.
This great power plant is now in
course of construction and the plans
are that it will be completed in 1924
Transmission lines will be built and
the Central Indiana Power Companys
entire system, now connecting 112
cities and towns in central and north
ern Indiana, including this city, with
additional new connections in pros
pect, will be unified. the great plant
on the Wabash River augmenting the
local plants and supplying greater
service, so inperatively needed.
AS a community grows. the de-
mands increase upon the public utili-
ties. especially upon the light and
power stations. Nobody wants to wait
long for service in a new home, and
in industrial and business circles serv-
ice must be furnished Immediately, as
all know. To meet these ever=increas-
ing demands in it's territory, the Cen
trail Indiana Power Company is now
building one OF the greatest power
plants in the United States.
So great, indeed, are the advantages
of the super-power system, that sew
eral of the leading nations, including
England. Japan, Canada and the
United States, are preparing to under
go the costly process of revising their
power systems in accordance with this
method.
In the United States, commission
appointed by Congress has submitted
plan for a super-power system for
the important district lying between
Boston. Mass, and Washington, D. c.
This system is to utilize all local water
powers and in addition is~to have f1f-
teen large steam plants, located on the
seacoast and navigable rivers.
Should these plans be carried out,
over 500 small power plants now serv-
ing this area will be shut down and
an estimated saving of $4,000 tons of
fuel will be made every year.
Indiana is falling In line in this big
work Of utilizing natural resources to
the best advantage for efficient serv-

Evil Heart VIII Cause
People to Find Own Level

I'm addition to the Bible statement
that evil communication will corrupt
good manners it is also a fact that
the evil heart in its possessor will
cause people to find their own level
in society. Even though we make the
exception that some good boys fall
into bad company. and are thus in
fuencad to do things that they never
thought of doing, yet, we chum as a
rule with our own class.

clared Sunday afternoon in a sermon
on 1.-THE Sin Nature of Judas" at the
Salem Park camp meeting.
During our war with Spain" he
said, "a man in our Navy, who had
been wearing the uniform and draw
ing the pay from Uncle Sam for three
years. was caught in the act Of put

of the vessel to sink the ship. He was
a traitor to his country.
so carnality is a traitor to man. 1t
has put enough sin in his heart to
sink him into hell unless fully saved
by the all-cleansing blood Of Jesus"
Declares That Sin
Had Starting Point
Continuing, Evangelist Cox said:
There was a starting point to sin in
the life Of every person who is now on
the downward path to eternal ruin, but
back and beyond the act Of sin, there
was the disposition to sin-the sin
bias, or downward tendency to sin.
Perhaps for the want of a better
name, you might call it the DISPOSE
stion or the depraved congenital stain.

Name it and
Get the Bounty
County Clerk Holderness is Puzzled
Over Pelt Sent in from
Bassetts for Bounty.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire,

Wy <1ooONAdISO TeSS Leased Wlrel
County Clerk Charles Holderness
was puzzled this morning when he
opened an express package to find a
pelt within it with a request for bounty
from NJ. E. Hoffman, of the town Of
Bassetts. He was puzzled because
after looking over the pelt several
times, he could not decide whether
it was wolf or a fox or what it was
and consequently did not know what
bounty to pay.
He will have some time to investi-
gate inasmuch as the hide has not
been punched three times in the ear
as provided by law in order to estab-
lish the fact that the animal was
killed in the town named. The county
law provides that the person claiming
the county shall take the hide to the
town chairman and have it punched
properly before it is presented to the
county clerk for payment.
The pelt has earmarks of either a
fox or wolf and County Clerk Hold
erness is waiting for letter from the
slayer to find out just what he claims
the animal to have been.

NASH MOTORS
IN NEW RECORD
May Proves to be Biggest
Months Business in His
tory Of Firm.
SHIPPED 6,2O8 CARS

May was the biggest month in the
history of the Nash Motors company.
Shipments for the month exceeded
those of April, the previous record
month, by 582 cars and eclipsed the
record of May, 1922, by 1913 cars. In
other words, Nash Motors shipped in
May of this year 6,2O8 passenger cars
as against 5,125 cars in the same month
last year.
while we actually shipped 6,2O8 cars
in May" said E. H McCarty, general
sales manager of the Nash Motors COM
pany, 1--WE had on our books orders for
more than 5000 cars for May delivery.
There apparently is no let-up in sight
for June. Nash dealers throughout the
country have practically no cars in
stock and most of them are arranging
deliveries to buyers in the sequence
that orders were received.
New Record in June.
Because Of the backward weather
Of the spring months, June is likely
to be even heavier selling month than
usual, many buyers, because of the
recent uncomfortable weather, having
postponed their purchase of new car.
Practically ever since the new Nash
line of cars was shown to the public
at the various automobile shows, the
Nash factory has been in an oversold
condition with the result that since
March 1st we have never been able to
fill all of the orders received by the
factory. Production, of course, has
been increased, but on very careful
basis, safeguarding the quality of Nash
cars"
