WHIP CURRENCY
BILL INTO SHAPE
President, Cabinet and Congress
siOnaI Leaders in Accord
Original Draft Revised.

Number Of Reserve Board Represen
tatives To Be Appointed by the
President ls Increased, While Mum
ber Of Federal Bank Representa-
tiVes ls Cut Down-Measure Likely
To Be Launched Monday
Washington, June 10. - After fur
iher conferences on the currency bill
President Wilson and his cabinet
members and the administration lead
ers in congress find themselves IN
substantial agreement on the princl
pal features of the measure.
This bill is the one which was
agreed upon by the president, his ad
visers and members Of the banking
and currency commissions in con
gress a day or two ago. The presi
dent himself now asserts that chang
es decided upon later at the White
House conference related only to mat
ters of minor detail.
One Of the changes made in the bill
at the suggestion of the president was
in regard to the composition of the
federal board of control. AS printed
and originally agreed to the bill pro
vided for the appointment of three
members of this board by the presi
dent, with the consent of the senate
the election of three by the federal
reserve banks and the remaining
three were to be ex-ofiicio members
the secretary of the treasury, the sec
retary of agriculture and the comp
troller of the currency.
The change that has been made in
the bill is in the direction of giving
the president greater power over this
federal reserve board which will con
troll the issuing of the new treasury
notes to the federal reserve banks
1t is understood that Secretary OF
State Bryan and others expressed tha
fear that the plan as originally drawn
would give the banks too much power
in the federal reserve board. 1t is
believed that the number Of represen
tatives to be appointed by the presi
dent has been increased and the mum
ber to represent the federal reserve
banks decreased.
This, however, is merely a matter
of detail, and the general principles
underlying the bill and the system
to be put into effect remain the same
A slight change also was made in
the phraseology Of that section of the
bill relating to the retirement of the
per cent bonds now used as a basis
of circulation or a national bank
currency, 1t was learned, however
that this change did not affect the
general purpose or plan of the bill as
originally agreed upon.
Present indications are that the
measure will be introduced Monday
and that on the same day Mr.. Wilson
will deliver in person his message
urging the enactment of the measure
into law before the current session
comes to an end.

NUGENT TO ORATE
At CHAUTAUQOA

The patrons of the Celina Chautauqua
are looking forward to the appearance OF
Father Nugent with great deal of pleas
ant anticipation. When such men as
Governor Larrabee, of Iowa, declare his
lecture one of the greatest he has ever
heard when the great Brooklyn Eagle
comments on the brilliance ofthe address
as compared with the best in the metrop-
oils and when the Chicago papers report
a triumph in that city before great crowds
we may feel assured that we may conf
IDENTIFY expect something really splendid
in which we are told the eloquent orator
does,not always find itpossible to exclAde
his delicious celtic humor which pre-
vades all his work, even the most serious
such as his famous lecture on the Phil
osophy of Civilization.
Father Nugent is physical and mem
tai giant, and best of all has warmth OF
heart which at once wins his audience,
which his eloquence and brilliance of
word picture later completely captivates.
He will be looked forward to afternoon
of August 3 with pleasure.

To INCLUDE MEAT
AND ITS PRODUCTS
President Orders Extension Of the
Pure Food and Drug Act
Effect Far-Reaching.

Department Of Agriculture viii Have
Full Jurisdiction over All Meat and
Meat Products In Interstate Com
merce, With Power 10 Seize and
Destroy - Blow at Unwholesoms
Meat.
Washington. June 1S.-A long step
toward insuring pure and wholesome
meat and meat food products has
been taken by the Wilson ad
ministration. The action consisted
in the extension by executive order d,
the pure food and drug act so as 70
include meat and its food products
This was accomplished through the
revocation Of an executive regulation
which has exempted these items from
the operation OF the food and drug
act since II became a law.
The extension Of the governments
activities under the act is the most
radical and far-reaching yet made.
Hereafter the department Of agricuL
ture will have full jurisdiction over
meat and meat products which have
entered into interstate commerce,
with the right to seize and destroy.
For the first time, manufacturers Of
meat foods will be required to com.
ply with the food and drugs act as
we'll as the meat inspection law. II
will be possible for the government
inspectors to seize meat in both retail
and wholesale markets which NAV
be unwholesome.
The secretary Of agriculture has APP
pointed a committee to adopt and
carry into effect suitable regulations
for the extension of the scope of the
governments activities. Heretofore,
after meat has passed out Of the
packing house, the government has
lost all jurisdiction over it. Now, If
it becomes the subject of interstate
commerce, the government will have
the right not only to follow it ami
seize it, but to prosecute those re-
sponsible for its being adulterated,
misbranded or unwholesome.
Officials of the department Of agri'
culture say the revocation of the reg
ulation will have a far-reaching effect
and may in particular Danish from
the market many potted meat delica-
cies which would pass muster under
the meat inspection law, but which
may not be able to meet the require.
ments of the pure food and drugs act.

YOUNG LAD BADLY IN
JURED WHILE
BATHING

Emil Weisman, the 14-year son OF
Fire Chief Weisman, suffered an injury
last Monday evening that nearly proved
fatal. Young Weisman, with a number
of companions, was bathing IN the res
ervoir, and was swimming toward raft,
from which the boys were diving when
he struck nail which extended from
the frame work. The rusty wire pene-
trated the lads right breast, piercing the
lung. His companions helped him home
and DR.. Ayers was called and dressed
the wound. The nail only penetrated
the lung slightly and the physician feels
the wound will not be serious unless
gangrene sets in, which is not regarded
as probable.

THE FEAST
Of THE TENTS

Why not go back to old Hebrew law
and custom and observe the feast of tents
by living in a tent at the Celina Chautau-
qua July 27 to August 109
If the American people are to remain
sound mentally, morally and physically,
we will have to obey some of the eternal
laws of life. We know that man or
woman who drudges seven days week
and twelve months a year very soon
wears out in mind and body.
Few nowadays, however; seem to know
that the feast of the tents is absolutely
commanded by scripture, and for the
same reason that the Sabbath rest and
complete change is commanded.
Even those who live in the town in
which Chautauqua Assembly is held
owe it to themselves to turn the key i'll
the home door and live in tents for at
least a week, and forget household and
business cares as completely as may be.
Read Leviticus 1884 and Deuteron-
omy 1913 and see if we do not have Just
the same injunction to live i'll tents for a
week each year, beginning and ending
on Sunday, as we.have to throw of work
OH Sunday.
The man or woman who works the full
fifty two weeks a year at the same thing
and never takes a complete rest by engag-
ing in something entirely different is
simply eating up his principle instead of
the income of his mental and physical
store.
The high cost of living to-day keeps
most of us figuring pretty close, but we
owe it to ourselves to forget it and give
the soul and the mind and the body a
chance.
Why not a week under canvas at Ce-
lima Chautauqua?
