GREENVILLE GARAGE BURGLARIZED; TIRES AND TOOLS REMOVED

GREENVILLE, O., Sept. 7. A bold theft took place In Greenville recently when the garage In the rear of the residence of George "W. Roesser, 114 Central avenue, was burglarized, entrance being made by breaking the lock on the door, whlchjja-. securely locked before Mr. Roesser retired for the evening. A new Buick car, belonging to Mr. Roesser, which, had been in use only about four weeks, was stripped of four Goodyear cord tires, tubes and rims, the owner's tools which were in the car being used, and later carried away. A chicken which was In a coop nearby, also was taken. Mrs. Ed. Sigerfoos, who has rented space in the Roesser garage, also was

relieved of a new cord tire from the rear of her Nash car, but the rest cf the automobiles were not molested in any way. Sheriff Joel Wagner was called and he will have the finger prints which were left on the fenders and radiators photographed. This is the first theft reported in Greenville for some time. Schools Show Gain. Greenville's public schools opened Monday, and the enrollment for the first day showed an attendance cf about $1,500, which is a gain of 10 per cent over last year. This is indeed a considerable gain. The attendance at the Greenville high school this year will be about 500, which i3 in excess of the attendance last year. The duties of the school youth be-

The Theatres . - MURRETTE "Through the Back Door" is the latest film at the Murrette theatre. This photo-feature, the basic Idea

for which was supplied by Little Mary herself, was prepared for the screen by Marion Fairflax, well-known scenarist. It is said to be quite different

from anything Miss Pickford has yet

attempted in that the story toucnes upon an angle of martial relations new to the screen.

The problem of restoring happiness to this household falls to the lot of Miss Pickford in one of her Inimitable

character roles. There are Innumer

able complications, some of them

laughable, others quite tragic all lead

ing ud to the denoument logical and

satisfying. Admirers of Mary Pickford will see her in a little girl part

in this picture, and many pleasant sur

prises are in 6tore for those seeking

something new In the way of comedy WASHINGTON.

which is to be the attraction at the Washington beginning Sunday, Is the

first dramatic work of Virginia Warwick, the former Mack Sennett bath

ing beauty. Ln taking this part in which she enacts the role of a sister of Julio, Miss Warwick is said to have exhibited genuine dramatic ability. This is the genuine role of the picture and Miss Warwick is said to have put into the part in t3 early scenes balanced proportions of beauty and girlish coquetry. She is then seen as the young wife whose husband goes to the front, and later she is the kind sympathetic nurse-wife when her young husband returns a maimed and disfigured youth.

PASS ANNUAL BUDGET BY UNANIMOUS VOTE; WEEDS MUST BE CUT Richmond's annual budget was passed without a dissenting vote by council at Its meeting Tuesday night. No changes were made from the tentative budget which was threshed out at a special meeting of the council. The tax levy of 93 cents which was agreed on at that time was fixedjby an ordinance passed at Tuesday's meeting. This levy will raise tha $208,246 estimated as the expenses of the city for the coming year. The light plant budget was fixed at $437,800.

Members of council were considerably concerned with the weed situation in the city. Mayor Zimmerman

referred the matter to the city attor

ney and police department, v Urges Signs. Councilman Johnny White urged im

mediate action by the board of works in putting "Drive Slow" signs near

school houses. He was particularly

concerned with the second ward

school neighborhood.

Mr. White statedthat ball bats and shot guns probably would be more ef

fective in stopping speeders near

school houses, but advised the signs as a first step towards protecting the

children.

Several local councilmen will attend

the Indiana Municipal league meeting at Vincennes, Sept. 21-23. An appropriation of $300 was made last year to help pay the expenses of local officials attending these meetings. This will be proportioned among the ones attending. Attention was called to the condition of the North Tenth street bridge, leading to Reid Memorial hospital. The matter was referred to the street department

GREEN, IOWA (Continued from Page One.) finance corporation will take, as it has heretofore, only bonds that are weil secured. "The question is naturally asked by those not familiar with railroad financing: 'Why fund this amount? Why not pay the railroads what we owe them and wipe off the slate? Just this: The government took all the receipts while in control, and if it now deducts all that it spent for permanent improvements there will be so small an amount left that lie railroads cannot

buy the supplies and equipment neces

sary for their efficient operation. When the railroads were under private control, they were always compelled to borrow on long time the greater part of what they expended on

permanent improvements. Had they Tint HnnA Ert tliAv miicf fiavA AithAr

the improvements. The bill meiely puts the companies in the condition In which they would have been had they

been under private control

"The fact is that the railroads can not carry on without marketing a large amount of securities and all that the

bill does is to enable the securities to , be marketed through government agencies and the companies to get the cash. The war finance corporation has been so successful in the past, having neither logt a dollar for itself nor for any

of its customers, that it is confident of finding a market for any security which it takes.

Uses Concrete Illustration. "The nature of the situation and the

reason why it is necessary to fund part of the railroad debt may be better

understood from an illustration. Sup

pose that Farmer Smith wishes to

move into town and rent his farm, with all machinery to carry it on, to Farmer Jones, and he is to be given credit for permanent improvements. At the end of the year Smith calls for his rent. Jones says: "Well, there isn't very

much due you. I have built another

barn, have torn down the hog house

which wasn't built right, and build a

bigger and better one, and I have

bought a tractor. 'Great Scott, man,' Smith exclaims, 'how do you expect me

to live? The improvements were necessary, but you will have to help me to negotiate my note for the most of that stuff you have been buying." It is -the same ay with the railroads. If two-thirds of their rent must be applied on permanent improvements

how are they going to pay ordinary expenses and repairs?

"Meanwhile there Is a strong demand on the railroads for reduction of rates, especially on agriclutural products. This demand is justified and while the railroads have made some reductions they have not gone far enough, but unless the railroads can put their lines in more efficient condition we can have but little hope for further reductions in rates." More than 200 farms on government reclaimed land will be opened to entry by ex-service men this month. These farms are located on the North Platte and the Shoshone irrigation, projects ln Wyoming. The North Platte project will be opened Friday of this week, and the Shoshone propect, one

week later. The department of the interior announces none but ex-service men will be permitted to make filings until sitxy days after each project opening. At the end of sixty days, if any land remains unclaimed, others will be per

mitted to make filings. Veterans can secure detailed information in regard to these projects by writing to the General Land Office, Washington, D. C.

$4,000 Barn Destroyed on C. F. Williams Farm A $4,000 barn on the farm of Charles F. Williams, four miles south of Richmond, on the Liberty pike, was burned Tuesday night, the fire Etarting at 8:30 o'clock. Insurance covered part, but not all of the loss.

No stock was in the barn, except possibly a few chickens. The barn : contained 100 bushels of wheat and; 100 bushels of corn, however. 'and sev ! eral tons of new hay. It is thought i that the fire may have started either

from defective electric wiring, or from .spontaneous combustion in the hay. Fire Chief Miller, of Richmond, drove out to the fire when it was reported.
