general assistance in - the. raisins of the budget of $6,000 to carry on the work of the bureau during the ensuling year. . Mr. White' letter follows: rjo the Citizens of Richmond: i , The Governing Committee of the ! Social Service ' Bureau of Wayne County desires to call your attention to the fact that on ;.Tuesday, November 16, 1916, the members of the Governing Committee of the Social Service Bureau and the Commercial, Club, of Richmond,' Indiana, through 1U Welfare Committee, will call upon you to renew your subscriptions of last year to the work of the Social Service BuIreau and its affiliated organisations. Our plan is to call upon the citizens tot Richmond but once each year to raise a fund sufficient to" tnance all affiliated charity organizations. It is necessary to raise for this year a budget of $6,000.00. which amount will be. needed and is sufficient to attend to all of the. charitable and social service needs of all affiliated organisations as follows:. Social Service Bureau. Associated Charities, Domestic Sclenee Association, Tuesday Aftermath Club, Penny Club, Wayne (County Anti-Tuberculosis Society. The Social Service Bureau has been 'in operation for one year. and we feel ithat it has thoroughly demonstrated jits usefulness in this community and th value of co-operation
and is doing the very best social service work, in that it puts charity work on a business basis, yet retains sufficient sympathy towards those, in
need of its service. i At the ' recent state charity conferfence much interest-was manifested in our plan and the purposes of our Social Service Bureau. " It was considered by the delegates present that the plan of the bureau was the most sue ceesful effort in charitable co-operation, between all private and public agencies. " Francis H. McLean, executive secretary of the American Association of Societies for Organised Charities, has recently expressed his approval of the plan of the Social Service Bureau. We, therefore, ask those of you who subscribed last year to renew your subscriptions and desire that Others who are Interested In the work will gladly contribute toward the expense, GOVERNING COMMITTEE, Frederick ' G.

SOUTH SIXTH DECORATED FOR FIRST BIG OPENING
Enthusiasm is rife on South Sixth street over the big time on Saturday when the thoroughfare will be opened to traffic. Merchants are getting ready to give farmers a hearty welcome. Work on decorations was started this morning so the. block from Main to A will be in holiday attire when the city band of twenty pieces starts playing at 1:30 o'clock. Alfred Bavis, president of the Board of Public Works and Dr. I. S. Harold president of the Wayne County Old Trails Association will be the speakers. Sixth street, formerly Marion street, has many historic connections. During the Civil war the soldier's hospital was located next to the market bouse. The public library always has been on this street and it is the outgrowth of the township library. For many years the wood market filled this street with hundreds of loads of wood and as many farmers. Farmers Congregate Here. The street has always been a center for farmers and has been the public market for hay and grain. It today attracts more agricultural business than any other thoroughfare in the city. During the Civil war the "Home Guards" were drilled around the market square on South Marion (Sixth street). These companies were organized to protect Richmond from the inroads of John Morgan, great Rebel raider. The old stage coach yard was located in a tavern at the northwest corner
of Sixth and Main and trips were made from here regularly to Cincinnati for 50 cents the round trip.
The first carriage factory was locat
ed on this street under the firm name of Linnineott & Co. r-
This business was continued by Philln Schneider. The pump works of
