A three and one-halt story building "which will contain a reproduction of the Cadillac sales room in Indianapolis,

said to be among the most beautiful tales room in America, will be oDened In Richmond on North Tenth street in October, by the E. "W. Steinhart company of Indianapolis, of which E. W. Steinhart is president. The building Is to be used for sales and service to Cadillac owners in this vicinity. Steinhart has chosen Richmond for the first of a series of branch agenE. W. STEINHART cies for the Cadillac car. Five counties, Wayne, Union, Fayette, Randolph and Henry wil lbe served. Erection wil begin on or before July 1, and the building will be completed in time for the opening in October. The structure will be of re-enforced concrete and .will be an exast reproduction, on a smaller scale, of the Indianapolis plant. It will occupy the entire lot at the corner of North Tenth and Sailor streets. Of the three and one-half stories, two will be used for the sales room. About 75 feet back, there wil be a mezzanine floor, where the offices wil be located. The service room wil be above this and the third floor wil be used as a storage room for new cars. 1 Interior of Mahogany. The interior of the sales room and offices will be of mahogany-and the decorative effects will be like those in the Indianapolis plant, with which many Richmond persons are familiar. The building has been designed by J. Edwin Kopf, of Indianapolis, who designed the building now occupied by the E. W. Steinhart company. Stienhart has the Cadillac agency in Indiana and has approximately 50 owners in or near Richmond. The fact that he has served so many persons in this, and adjacent counties, has been an incentive for him to build here. It will be far easier for Cadillac owners to come to Richmond from Newcastle, Liberty, Connersville, Winchester and other laces near here,. than to go to Indianapolis for service. There will be no garage in connection with the building, but service will be given Cadillac owners and the man agement will bring service men here. Steinhart believes that personal atmiation is the best way to serve. Clarence Grieger, who has been as sociated with the Terre Haute agency, will be the manager of the Richmond Dlant. He will employ service men and a general office force. A local representative will also be a part of the organization, but has not yet been se lected. Truck-Home, Bound For Coast, Goes Through City A large, roomy auto truck passed through Richmond Friday afternoon. It contained a family enroute to- the Pacific coast. The body of the-truck was hung on large easy riding springs. Besides this, large upholstered chairs were fastened in, for the five travelers. An electric cooker prepared the foods and at night screens were put in the places for windows and the leather chairs were converted into beds.

McCullough of tort Wayne, fomen s state chairman oi me secona, third and fourth Liberty Loan drives was elected first chairman of the Democratic women in Indiana when the women's state committee was organized at the party headquarters in the Dennison hotel Friday.

Mrs. Fred Laurenstein of Evansville was appointed treasurer and Mrs. Ben ' F. McKee of Lebanon, secretary. INVESTIGATE HOG LOSS. NEWCASTLE, Ind.. June 21. Investigation is following the recent loss by a farmer living near here, of hogs valued at $4,000, which loss he attributes to a stock regulator purchased in Newcastle. Otis S. Roberts of the state chemist's office, was here this week. If the stock food was sold without the state chemist's analysis, it is a violation of the state law.

GREAT CHAIN OF RETAIL STORES TO BE STARTED BY GIANT CORPORATIONS

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN That fact is indeed often stranger than fiction is amply proven by a study of the financial and commercial annals of this country, during the last fifty years. Slender beginnings have resulted in collosal personal fortunes, and pigmy enterprises have grown into giant corporations within the memory of the present grayhaired generation.

As in the life histories and accom plishment of men, so of nations, there is always the day of small things, of modest and humble beginnings. Many of us never get off to a running start; we are not built that way; we are plodders and content to enjoy life from day to day; unambitious to dominate or control in any field. And who shall say that we are not the happier for it? Give me neither poverty nor riches, said the Psalmist. Another thinker tells us that a contented mind is a continual feast. The piling up of a great fortune may undoubtedly be a source of great satisfaction, but the pursuit and final responsibilities are too all-absorbing.

Because the structure is being built back against the east bank of the river, a space of 80 feet was reserved from the remainder of the floors so that a skylight could be placed in the roof at the rear to town of Durham, North Carolina, which town was then, as now, surrounded by tobacco fields.
