The story of Ruth -was beautifully related at the Thursday afternoon session of the Chautauqua by Mrs. Mable Quam Stevens, in her lecture, "The Scarlet Band." She laid special stress on the custom of the people of the Holy Land even to the present aay of swoddling their children In various bands of cloth to denote their lineage. She stated that when the wise men found the Christ child in the m:nger. he was swaddled in these band3, one of which was the red band of Ruth and Boaz. The first scene of her story Is laid In Bethlehem. Clad In the Bethlehem
shepherd's white tunic, she stands be
fore her audience describing the life of Boaz. Later she discards this garb for the varl-colored raiment of the women of Bethlehem. The next scene is in the country
of Moab where Elimilek and his fam
ily went to avoid the famine in the
land of Bethlehem. The story de
scribes the castle of King Eglon at the royal city on the Anion river.
Ruth, the daughter of the king, learns
of the coming of the family of Elimi
lek to the city and welcomes them. Pictures Old Scenes
Ruth and Orpha, daughter of the
general of the Moabitlsh army, married the sons of Naomi and Elimilek,
Naon and Kelion. The husbands of
these two women died later and Ruth
and her stepmother Naoma returned
to Bethlehem. Ruth's "decisison to re
turn with Naoma is beautifully pic
tured for her hearers by Mrs. Stevens when she recites the Hebrew vow.
Upon her return to Bethlehem, Ruth
becomes the wife of Boaz and inci
dentally the immediate ancestor of
Jesus Christ.
The Bible lesson story was fol'.owe
by statements and information which was of especial interest to club women who are working for the betterment of the schools, the churches and social life generally and for those women willing to become community mothers. She also told the story of the perfect women as found in America. Mrs. Stevens grips her audience with her first appearance and her words do not have the effect of an instructive lecture but are more in the form of an entertaining story. Last Time Here Thursday afternoon was her last appearance before the Chautauqua here. Solos, duets, quartettes and specialty numbers featured the prelude performance of the Davie3 Light Opera company which appeared on th-? Chautauqua preceding the lecture of Mrs. Stevens. The quartette number, "Isn't It Great to be Happily Married?" was perhaps the best received of all the musical offerings of the afternoon, while the comic songs by Harry Davies were in high favor. The Davies Light Opera company consists of two sopranos, Misses Iren? Heinberg and Florence Conant; contralto, Louise Nichols: tenors, Harry Davies and Harry Smith: baritones. Earl Anderson and Herbert McClelland; bass, Harve Howard. They will appear on the program Thursday night in Richard Stahl's light opera, "Said Pasha." and will present two programs Friday. Sketches Joseph's Life. A sketch of the life of Joseph, his
cnaracter. personality and superior
bearing were outlined in the lecture
given at the Chautauqua Wednesday
night by Mrs. Mabel Quam Stevens. Mrs. Stevens has travelled in the
Holy,land and wore one of the beautiful garments which is worn by the chieftains of the tribes there. It is known as the coat of many colors and is such a coat as was given Joseph by his father back in Bible history. She told the story of Joseph, who,
Ohio Fuel Commission Will Fix Fear Price for Cod Mined in State (By United Press) COLUMBUS. Ohio, Aug. 31. State fuel commission, meeting here today, will attempt to arrive at a reasonable state-wide price for Ohio mined coal, which coal operators, wholesalers and
retailers will be asked to observe.
Members of the commission are
known to be divided as to the advis
ability of attempting to fix a fair price, some taking the position that
any price operators will be willing to
observe will be so high that it may tend to increase the general level of costs rather than lower it. - The commission held an extended session Monday but was unable to reach an agreement and adjourned to meet again today. The general opinion before they went into session today would agree on a price of from $5.00 to $6.00 "at the mine" as fair.
Budget For Light Plant Will Go Before Council An informal meeting of members of the city council was held in the light plant office building Wednesday evening for the purpose of going over the budget for the coming year. Books of the plant were laid open for inspection, and the plans for the coming year fully explained. The light plant budget comes up for consideration at the next meeting of the city council.
Hess Goes to Cincinnati To Study Coal Situation D. C. Hess, superintendent of the
Municipal electric light plant, left
Thursday for Cincinnati, where he will
investigate the coal situation, with a
view to assuring a continuous supply of coal for the local plant. He estimates that it will take two or three
weeks to supply the northwest with
coal, after which the local situation will be somewhat easier.
Auditor Predicts Tax
Rate Will Be Near $3.06
That the tax rate in Richmond will be around $3.06 this year is the pre
diction of the county auditor, based
on tax rates sent in from the town
ship, city and school offices. City
county school, city and township taxes make the rates total $2.78. This is
all the tax to be counted on with the
exception of the state tax which amounted to 24 cents last year. This year the state tax is expected to rise
three or four cents, bringing the total
to around S3. 06.

JUDGING OF EXHIBITS, PLACING OF RIBBONS, HOLDS FAIR INTEREST
. Judging of exhibits and placing of ribbons occupied the attention of all officials of the Dublin fair on. Thursday, practically all day being required to complete the work in some departments, which were well filled with entries. However, most of the work' was finished in time to allow the crowds to know the premium winners before the end of the afternoon. In the women's departments, with premiums awarded and published on the food and sewing exhibits, interest centered on the baby show, which was being conducted in the afternoon.
Many babies were entered, and it was conceded that the judges had no easy task in deciding between them. Conducts Examinations The examinations were conducted under the supervision of Miss Virginia Jones, a nurse of the county Red Cross organization, with the assistance of a local committee. The superintendents of this department are Mrs. Carroll Ogburn, Mrs. Alice Moore and Mrs. Edna Ohmit. Frain farmers spent much of the day inspecting the exhibits in the agricultural displays under the supervision of Charles McCann. Corn growers from Henry, Fayette and Wayne county were showing, including some from the territory of the Henry county gold medal winners in the five acre contest. A. W. Kerber, Albert Ferris, Joseph Helms, Clessie Haskett, C. J. McCann, and Horace Cole were among the professional corn growers who contested. An exceptionally uniform high quality group of samples had been submitted, in the ' opinion of many spectators. An unusual feature of this department was the display of tobacco, entered as a curiosity by George Adrion. Tobacco usually is never grown in this neighborhood and to many was an unusual sight. Plants three feet in height were shown, and in addition, one plant of rather low variety with leaves over 15 inches in width, attracted considerable attention. This plant was growing in a small tub and was displayed in the window. Recreation Feature It was announced that a trapeze artist had been secured to amuse tho crowd Thursday evening.
