ALL GRAINS SHOW SLIGHT RECOVERIES; MARKET HESITANT
CHICAGO. Aug. 26. All grains registered slight recoveries this week from the extreme depression of the previous seven day period, but the market was hesitant and without
leadership by either side. Wheat was to lc higher this morning than a week ago; com was up c to lc and oats to lc. Provisions were unchanged to 17c higher. Uncertainty over the European situation, both as regards the financial situation and the nrobable demands
for grains this year, dominated wheat, i
noiaing the swings to narrow limits. Export demand was slow. Improvement in the domestic industrial situation will be a bullish factor and gave the market what firmness there was to discount bearish cables. Permission for India to export sixteen million bushels of wheat and reports that Europe's imports for the current year probably would be considerably under last year's were principal bear factors. Low prices for the season were scored Monday on all deliveries but the dip brought out heavy buying and a strong upturn followed. Corn Holds Firm Corn was Influenced primarily by weather and crop reports and held firm on the bulges as news of serious deterioration In some Important sections became more insistent as the
week wore on. Export demand throughout the entire week was practically negligible. Oats were dull all week and registered only slight changes, entirely technical In nature. There was no fundamental change in the provision market, but prices see-sawed on hedging operations.

INDIANS TO RECEIVE BETTER EDUCATION IN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS
CBy Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26. Plans for the improvement of the condition of the Indians, with particular reeard to
health and education, are being work-
ea out by Commissioner Burke of Indian affairs with the approval of Secretary Fall, and an increase in the estimates for the Indian bureau probably will be asked in the next Indian
appropriation bill.
The American Red Cross recently
acceded to a request from the interior department for the assignment of
tnree trained nurses to be detailed to the Indian bureau for one year, as the first step in Commissioner Burk's
piugram. in addition plans tor enlarged school facilities to educate 20, 000 Indian children of school age not now in school are being worked out Approximately 6,000 of this number belong to the Navajoe tribe and have never been to school. To Make Survey t The nurses assigned to the Indian service, it. wa3 said at the Indian bureau, will make a survey of condi tions on Indian reservations and give a demonstration of what may be accomplished by women trained as nurses and in welfare work, to lay the foundation for asking congress for
appropriation to enable the Indian bu
reau . to employ on the reservations women of a higher grade for matrons and general field service, according to Commissioner Burke's plans. "There is a great opportunity," Commissioner Burke said today, in commending on his plans, "for improving home conditions among Indians and in teaching sanitation and looking after the health of children.
The American Red Cross at its recent
house at that time. I can remember the names of two of the three brick; masons who worked on the new house. They were John Price and Henry Murphy. The other one was never an acquaintance, but I remember what he looked like." Mrs. Allen was born In Center township, Union county, on August 26, 1830, and was married to William Allen in 1850. She is the mother of 13 children and the foster mother of five more, who are not related to her. She now has 16 great grandchildren. Time Brings Changes "People lived much better 70 years
ago than they do today, said Mrs. Al
len. "They did not dissipate, keep
late hours, and do the things which shorten the lives of the people of the
present generation. We had less then i
but we were much happier. The people of this territory were mostly farmers living as they could by making almost everything necessary to their simple life. I remember the time when my father drove his team 50 miles to Cincinnati, just to get a barrel of salt. It took him four day3 but we had enough salt to last for a long time." "I saw the first railroad constructed through Richmond. Thr.t was in 1847 when the Pennsylvania lines started through this section. I remember the
occasion very distinctly. I roue up with my father to bring our crop of wool to Test's woolen mill just north of town. Richmond was just a village then and I knew just where everything was. If I were to go down-town now Id probably get lost for I have not been able to keep up with the growth of the city." Grain Harvest Mrs. Allen traced the development of the methods used in harvesting of grain in this district. When she was a girl the wheat was cut with a sickle and threshed with a flail. Fifteen bushels per day .vas good production with a flail. "Then followed the horsedrawn thresher which turned out 50
bushels and we thought that was wonderful," she said. "This was about
the time when the cradle came into use and we thought we were going as fast with our harvesting as it was possible to go. The reaping machine came later and the engine driven thresher followed." Mrs. Allen has made most of her clothes since she was married and
"I don't like the girls dresses as they wear them today. They don't wear enough to keep them warm. We used to make our own clothes of homespun, spinning the cloth and making all of the clothes used by the family." "Modes of travel have changed also. I can remember the time when we had to provide the way to go if we went any place. Then came the stage coach, which ran from Hamilton, Ohio through Fairhaven, and then to Richmond. I can remember seeing the large coach with its eight galloping horses which were always under the whip. The horses . were changed at various places along the way. Three Brothers in War.
"I had three brothers in the Civil war. Two of them went all the way through, but the other came home on account of sickness. The state was under martial law during the war because the state was Democratic and the Democrats were called secessionists. The greatest sin which followed the war was the amalgamation of the
negroes with the whites. I believe President Lincoln meant to segregate
the negro but did not do this be
cause of his assassination. "I have lived in Richmond for 17 years," said Mrs. Allen. "I occasion
ally return to the place of my birth
in Center township, Union county. My friends thereabouts are always glad to see me and always have a cheerful word for me, so I guess I must have been of some account while I lived among them. I have tried to live a good life, and have never quarrelel with my neighbors. I was a lively girl and have been happy throughout my life and thus far I have escaped all harm." A celebration of Mrs. Allen's birthday will be held at the home of her grand-daughter, Mrs. Clyle Thomas, near Fountain City, Sunday. Two of the great grand-children are Mrs Thomas's children. Others who will be present are Samantha Goldsmith,
