RICHMOND
OF
FAVOR CINCINNATI
Wire Secretary McAdoo to Give Ohio City Regional Reserve Bank.
BANKS ARE STRONG
Edgar Hiatt of Trust Bank, Anxious to Have Cincinnati Chosen.
The Second National bank, Union National bank, First National bank and the Dickinson Trust company, Richmond's four banking institutions, announced today they would send a joint telegram to Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo urging the selection of Cincinnati as the regional bank city for this district, under the provisions of the new currency reform law. which local bankers have united in calling the greatest act of constructive legislation passed by congress in A decade. Local banks have received the following telegram from the Cincinnati Clearing House association: "We want a regional bank in Cincinnati. The Clearing House will appreciate your co-operation and assistance. This is the nearest large city to the center of population; has Subtreasury, which will facilitate early establishment of Regional Hank. Your interests are identical with ours. The location here will be better for us both than, to be attached to some remote territory. Telegraph Secretary McAdoo favorably and ask other banks to do likewise. Knlist co-operation of your Senators and Congressmen. Mail us copies of all telegrams. Please act quickly. Matter urgent." Wire Their Support. It was "In response to the urgent appeal contained in this telegram that the local bankers decided to lose no time in wiring to the secretary of the treasurer their indorsement of Cincinnati for the district regional reserve bank location. "Cincinnati is the ideal location for the regional reserve, bank of this district and we are anxious to lend all our influence to have it located there." was the way President Edgar Hiatt of the Dickinson Trust company put it. The following is a table showing the capital and surplus of the national banks of the larger Indiana cities: Crawfordsv.ille $ 713,000 Evansville 2,206,000 Ft. Wayne 2,066,000 Frankfort 405,000 Greensburg 482,000 Hammond 400,000 Indianapolis '. . . 10,220,000 Kokomo 610,000 Lafayette 1,158,000 Logansport 637,000 Muncie 783,000 New Albany 053,000 Richmond 1,161,000 Rushville .' 525,000 South Bend 820,000 Terre Haute 2,400,000 VIncennes 814,000 It will be noticed that the showing made by the Richmond banks is the best of any city in the state, except the four largest: Indianapolis, Ft. Wayne, Terre Haut? and Evansville the local banks even having capital and surplus in excess of the banks of South Bend, a city twice the size of Richmond. All the local banks and the trust company applied for membership in the new federal banking system, created by the currency act, prior to Christmas. DIVORCE GRANTED A decree of divorce was granted today to Forrest Hershey, an employe at the M. Rumely company from his wife. Myrtle B. Hershey, a resident of Dayton. The Hersheys' were married seven years ago in Bradford, Ohio, living together for two years, after which they separated. They have one child who is being cared for in a benevolent institution in Dayton. Among the valuable coins in the possession of Edwin Towne, of Watervllle, Me., are a half cent coined in 1804, a half dollar dated 1809 and a Spanish piece made in 1746.
No English Education For Them

Left to right: Marshall Field, III, Mrs. Maldwin Drummond and Henry Field. Mrs. .Maldwin Drummond, now the wife of an English army captain, who is spending the Christmas holidays at her old home in Chicago, with her two sons, Marshall Field, III and Henry Field, heirs to the 1,000,000,000 left to them by their grandfather, Marshall Field, has announced that the boys are not to be weaned away from their native America and brought up as Britishers. Marshall Field, III, is now a student at Cambridge, and Henry is enrolled at Eaton, but their mother declares the boys will finish their education on this side of the Atlantic and enter into business in Chicago. It is the ambition of the boys to manage the great business established by their grandfather. "The boys are Americans," said Mrs. Drummond, "and they will work and spend the greater part of their lives in this their native land."

REV. E. E. DAVIS TO PREACH HERE
Post C will entertain the wives and , lady friends of the members this even- j
ing in the club rooms. The committee having this affair in charge has made every effort to please the ladies and have prepared a nice entertainment. A large attendance is expected as the ladies look forward to these entertainments that are given for them by the post.
January the first, like July the first, is always a date most important in the T. P. A. calendar. The members are always anxious for these two dates to come around because it is then
! they part with $5.50 their annual dues, j It's amusing to see the boys rush to pay their annual dues and if the sec
retary nappens to De away wnen tney drop in he is at once accused of failing to do his duty. When one gets as much for $5.50 as the T. P. A. offers he surely can part with that amount with ease.
Rev. E. E. Davis of Alexis, 111., will preach at the morning and evening services at the Second Presbyterian church tomorrow. He was called by the church as a trial' preacher to be considered at the next meeting of the session. Rev. Davis is known here, having preached in Richmond four or five years ago. He now occupies the pulpit in a large Presbyterian church in Alexis.
BURTS IS TAKEN TO PENITENTIARY
EARLHAM If! FINAL EFFORT JNCAMPAIGN Trustees Must Raise $5,000 During Coming Week to Get Endowment.
MAKE LAST ATTEMPT
Kelly Says It Is Not Likely That $325,000 Will Be Obtained.
Unless the trustees of Earlham college secure at least $5,005 during the ocraing week, the institution will not be retained on the list of beneficiaries of the General Education Board, and will not receive any of the promised $75,000, to be given in case the college secured $325,000 in donations from other sources to the endowment of the college. When it was seen that it would be impossible to raise the entire $325,000 by the first of the year, 1914 the General Education Board Informed college authorities that if one-third of the original amount were secured, onethird of the $75,000 would be paid by the board. In a final spurt to secure the necessary amount, the trustees have been working during December to raise a fund of $25,000. the amount nrrded to complete one-third of the original amount, and this special camp;ipn has resulted in securing onlv $20,000 to date. The other $5,000 must
be secured before the first of the year, if Earlham is to succeed in the campaign. Kelly Makes Statement. President Kelly, in di scussing the matter today, said: '"On our special campaign card for twenty-five thousand dollars during the months of November and December we hare secured approximately $20,000.00 On this special effort we have $5,000.00 to raise in a week. The twenty thousand Is made up of one pledge of $5,000.00. one of $3,000. one of $2,000. one of $1,000. four of $500.00. seven of $250. thirty of $100. fifteen of $50 fifteen of $25. and some of miscellaneous amounts. Besides this we hare secured some donations on the annuity plan, and on long time notes." "It does not seem likely that we shall obtain the entire " $325,000.00 within the next week, but we. do hope to accomplish one thing we hope to secure a sufficient amount so that the General Education Board will retain us on their list of beneficiaries. Every hundred dollars we get now before January firt means really $123.00. and. as the General Education Board gives donors the privilege of making their payments in five annual installments, the friends of the College have an unusual opportunity by making pledges now to render the College and the community a great benefit. I m sure nothing would make the trustees happier than for the last $5,000 of this special fund to come from our friends in Richmond.

But two transfers of real estate have been recorded since Christmas. Samuel McCain sold to C. F. Schweitter lot S2 in Benton Heights for $215. John It. Miller sold half an acre of improved ground on the Richmond and Williamsburg pike for $500.

BUMPS ON THE SHOES. That's Because Our Footwear Is Not Polished Properly. "Do you know why it is that American men's feet always look ugly?" said a bootmaker. "No? Well. then. I'll (ell you. "American men's feet look ugly because they have their shoes polished while wearing them, an iniquitous
I practice that is followed nowhere else
, in the world.
"Everywhere else mon on retiring slip trees into their shoes and set the shoes outside their ledroon) doors. A servant takes them and polishes them, and after the dampness of their polish ing they rest for some hours in the trees, and this does to them what a hot iron does to a suit of clothes it presses them, so to speak, taking out all the ugly bumps and wrinkles, making them like new. "But we Americans drop into an armchair on a high brass stand. Our shoes are polished on our feet. The ugly lines of wear, instead of being removed or brushed out by the process, are confirmed, rubbed in. And that U
ugly as our clothes would look if we never s?nt them to the tailor to be pressed." Cincinnati Enquirec

THE NEW SASHES HAVE A DECIDED PURPOSE
Although the sash ends may float in the wind as of old with no aim aside from the decorative, yet they may be decidedly useful, too, in more ways than one. To merge waist with hipline was their first mission, and they have gradually found many other little ways to add to the effect of the gown. A clever arrangement of sash ends may be seen in 8061. Here they serve to bring about the effect of a pannier by catching up the tunic. They also lend a pretty finish to the blouse. Lace is very popular this season, and this model shows an excellent way of employing it. A delicately patterned shadow lace is combined with a cling
ing silk. It is an exceptionally smart afternoon gown. For size 36 this design requires 4vfc yards of 36 inch material wuh 29i yards of allover lace. Another design charmingly suited to the filmy fabrics of the moment is 8062. A transparent tunic of chiffon, its pointed edges smartly outlined with fur. is hung over a slightly draped skirt of charmeuse. A bit of the tar trims the bodice and sleeves. To make a frock after this design in size 36 it requires Z yards of 42 inch silk with 3Vi yards of chiffon. No. 8061 sixes 34 to 42. No. 8062 sizes 34 to 41 Each pattern 15 cents.
