GATES DECLINES OFFER TO TEACH MUSIC HERE Philip Gates, graduate of Richmond high school, now supervisor of music in the Pinna schools, turned down an
offer of the Richmond school board to coma here. Richmond offered a salary
of $2,500.
Gates played the French horn in the
Richmond hish Bchool orcneBira.
Since leaving Richmond he has rapidly
forged to the front as a supervisor of music In public schools. He organized a high school boy's band in Piqua which won fame all over tho state.
vlously accepted bid for coal, to with-' draw the advertisement for additional coal bids, and that the plant superintendent be Instructed to go on the open market for coal and keep the board informed on all propositions re
ceived.
Mr. Gilbert stated that, inasmuch as the board had ordered the advertising for coal bid without authority, he was prepared to pay his share of the cost of advertising. The ame sentiment was expressed by board members Pelt and Taylor. President Gilbert in addressing the board, declared that the financial con ditlon of the municipal plant, as indicated by the controller's report, was a
great surprise to him, and he presumed, was equally surprising to the other board members. Board Receives No Report. He called attention to the fact that it has been customary for the controller to keep the mayor advised on financial affairs, the mayor, in turn, to report such facts to the board. Mr. Gilbert then added that the board had been receiving no reports from the mayor on municipal finances. Controller Bescher, however, has been submitting regular financial reports to the mayor until the mayor left the city. "I think that we have been buying a lot of things that are not necessary, and this labor cost at the municipal plant has got to be reduced," Gilbert declared. He remarked that included
among the bills due against the municipal plant, was one received from a coal company which had been waiting for its money since May 28. "We have just got so much money to apply to these bills and we will
have to make It go as far as possible," i
the board president declared. "I think the oldest bills should be taken care of first. Roof In Bad Condition. When the board president instructed Superintendent Dillon to reduce the labor cost at the plant Dillon asked that he be instructed to stop all unnecessary work at the plant and reduce the working force to a minimum. Before the board adjourned, Dillon called attention to the fact that a wall and the roof of the boiler house of the plant were in a hazardous condition and asked the board to submit to council an ordinance appropriating $12,500 for a new wall and new roof. The board passed a resolution to that effect. President Gilbert entered a protest against a submitted bill of $74 for papering several rooms in tenant houses at Glen Miller park. Gilbert declared that this was no time for the city to spend money for wall paper. Park Superintendent Hollarn declared that he had to make the imnrovements to keen help at tho
park. He said two men recently quit the park service because of the condition of two tenant houses. "This city Is in a mighty bad shape.
financially," remarked the board president. Hollarn then reported that lack of funds prevented badly needed re
pairs to roads at the park.
While discussing the purchase of some supplies for the city building, Gilbert and Peltz engaged in a tilt. This work has been done by Peltz. "If you want to look after the buying go ahead and do so. I wash my hands of the whole thing," Peltz said to Gilbert. Causes Comment. Considerable comment was caused by the resignation of Mr. Gilbert. It is generally understood that Mr. Gilbert is considerably displeased over the way municipal affairs have been conducted of late. He informed friends that the city had no one to supervise its administration and he
called attention to he fact that before Mayor Zimmerman became incapacitated he showed a general lack of interest in the affairs of his office, seldom attending the board meetings. The action of the city council in delaying action on necessary improve
ments at the municipal plant, as proposed by the board of public works, is also believed to have entered into the
decision of the board president to tender his resignation. Believes Changes Necessary. As he left the city building Thurs
day morning Mr. Gilbert remarked to
a newspaper man that he believed the
only solution for an effective and effi
cient administration of municipal affairs was to have the legislature pass
a law permitting cities to establish
some form of the commission system of government "If this question comes
up before the legislature I will be will
Ing to devote considerable of my time in attending sessions as an advocate
of the commission plan of city gov eminent," he added.
35 HAPPY ORPHANS GUESTS OFnST. PAUL'S
Thirty-five happy children arrived In Richmond at 5 p. m., Wednesday, for a vacation of ten days to two weeks, as guests of members of the St. Paul's Lutheran church. They were accompanied from the Oestjerlin Orphans'
Home, Springfield, Ohio, by Mr. and Mrs. Fry. Not for one moment are they to be allowed to consider themselves as other than members of families, said the Rev. J. P. Miller. They will go to Sunday school next Sunday with their hosts and hostesses. Thursday afternoon the Sunday school of St. Paul's will hold its annual picnic in Glen Miller park. Here the children will receive one of the best treats of their visit. Upon arriving in Richmond Wednesday, the children and those that had come to meet them, enjoyed a most agreeable surprise when H. W. Hullinger, of Chicago, a traveling sales man, opened his heart and pursestrings and treated every child to refreshments in a confectionery.

Snaps More Expensive Bat Taken by Dozens The original cost and the upkeep of snapshots and cameras are higher this
summer than last. There is not much change in the price of printing and developing films. But a 20 per cent increase was tacked on the films this year. The 20 film roll sells for 25 cents now. The 40 cents film pack has advanced to 50 cents. Cameras have taken a 20 per cent upward hop. Developing paper has soared the highest, however, now costing 40 per cent more than last yar.
Nevertheless, a Main street dealer
says sale of cameras and supplies is greater than last year, and more snapshots are being taken.

RICHMOND MAY FACE
GRAVE GAS SHORTAGE
Richmond this winter may face ' more serious gas shortage than mrtri before, if the United States supreme ( court should bold constitutional (he. Steptoe law, which provides the state of West Virginia shall first obtain.; natural gas adequate to take care of: consumers in that state, and then the; remainder be allowed to come into Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania. , The validity of the law is now being heard in Columbus before United; States Commissioner Levi Cook.

British Quaker Tells Of Starvation in Russia Terrible conditions prevalent In Rus
sia are depicted In a report received , by Clarence E. Pickett, secretary of the Young Friends Conference, describing the trip of Hinman Baker, English Friend, to Moscow. In Petrograd and Moscow lack of fuel kept the temperature of most of the houses near the freezing point
through the long Russian winter. The
population herd day and night in the Fame clothes, including overcoats. This made a high death rate from typhus. The breakdown of transportation has cut off Petrograd and Moscow from food supplies. The population is insufficiently rationed on black bread, cabbage soup and a cerial. In brief the report saidr "There is almost no industry owing to the shortage of fuel and raw material. Under the communal law all surplus stock, crops, and goods must be rendered to the state, which gives in exchange nominal sums of worthless paper
money. The peasantry are opposed to this, and so long as the government cannot exchange for their produce clothing, machinery and a thousand other things they need, the majority of Russia will be opposed to Bolshevism."
