Lover Tries to Pick From Three;
in Year They Marry His Friends

A young man residing at the Y. NJ.
c. A. dormitory, employed in a high
clerical position in a local industrial
concern, was in love with three maid
| ems. blonde, brunette and one with
raven locks. The blonde was bright
and intelligent, the black haired a So
cial butterfly and the brunette very
domesticated.
Here's the story of how he broke
i their hearts, unwittingly supplied the
balm that cured the wound, and now
like the villain in the plot, enjoys the
hospitality Of each and the friendship
of their respective husbands.
The young lover had sense enough
to find each of them charming in her
way, and as he was somewhat of a
philosopher, who understood how to
get the most out of everything, he talk
ed art and literature with the fair, was
very tender towards the darkhaired
one, and appreciated the good dishes
the brunette set before him when he
/ called. Things went on beautifully I'M
til an unkind fate made the three girls
! meet and revealed to them the fact
that their lovers were one and the
same person.
Now this did not please the girls at
all. and they lost no time in telling him
what they thought of such behavior
The young man was thunderstruck
In vain did he bring all his eloquence
and logic into play, he finally had to
realize that if he did not want to lose
them all he must choose between them.
| In his despair he decided to turn for
advice TO his three best friends and
invited these. an Earlham college pro-
fessor. a local artist and bank clerk,
to the Y dormitory one night and ask
ed them to help find him a solution

their best and it was arranged that the
professor was to meet the intelligent
blonde, the artist the passionate maid

clerk the brunette of domesticated
habits.
The young man introduced each of
them to the particular girl and all
three promised to give him the benefit
of their advice in a short time
Soon after he found three letters,
and opening the letter of the artist
first, he read:
MY Dear Friend-Having thought
the matter over most carefully. l have
come to the conclusion that the bru-
nette is the ideal wife for you
The professor wrote:
! My Dear Friend-If God ever made
girl fit to be your wife, ii is the fair
haired one
This narrows down my choice.
said the young man, and it was not
without misgiving that he opened the
| letter from the bank clerk:
IF you want to be happy. listen to
my advice and marry the maid Of the
raven hair"
Any other man would have been
crushed. Not SO this Y. NJ. c. A. boy.
After reading the three letters over
again, he lit good cigar. threw him
self into an easy chair and thanked
Heaven for three such splendid
friends

The method by which new members
pay their initial assessments was
changed by the National convention
there being simply a reversal in the
order of things, the short term dues
going over into the second half of the
year instead of the first. The law as
amended reads: All applications for
membership shall be accompanied by

COMMERCIAL CLUB
SEEKS TO ATTRACT
SMALL INDUSTRIES
Committee on New Factories
Adopts Different Plan to
Safeguard City and Labor
ing Men.

Richmond will soon have a scientific
plan of inducing new industries to To-
cate in the city. Members of the COM
mittee on new industries OF the Com
mercial club, decided last night, to
make a study of the most advanced
methods in the country, by which in
dustries are induced to locate at any
certain place.
Gifts of power, light, land, money,
exemption from taxes and such induce
ments were condemned The COM
mittee also decided to strive to add
small industries with varied products
rather than big industries with one or
two products which are disposed of in
limited markets.
This will be a safeguard to the city,
the members believe. BY concentrate
ing on one or two big industries a
year, the club might induce them to
locate here. However, such indus
tries, often just finding a market for
their products, might easily fail. The
market for the product might collapse.
But if many small industries were
brought to the city. there is less
chance of failure and with a wide
spread market, there is less likelihood
tndt such markets would fail.
To See Tractor Work.
H. A Dill, chairman and other men,
bers of the committee will go to In
dianapois next week to witness a
demonstration Of the work of the
Baker Tractor company's product. the
one-man tractor From all indications,
the tractor on paper is a success. The
practical demonstration as seen by
the committee members is the hinge
of future action on their part towards
locating the industry in Richmond
This company would capitalize at
$4,000 sold in small share lots in
order to interest small investors.
Local capital would be asked and
farmers in this county would be
solicited to subscribe for stock in the
company. This would assure strong
local support of the company S
product.
Substituting Unpopular.
In this day of square dealing, the
idea is not to give bonus said
Charles Jordan. 1t is not fair for a
man making his way in the world to
give part of his money or land to
assist some one else in making his
way. But it is fair for him to lend
him some of his money to help him
along.
The system Of Substituting is rapid
ly becoming unpopular. Some cities
offer new industries exc mption from
taxation. In some places. money
bonuses are offered while offers are
often published Of free water, free
power or free lights until the COM
panics are financially able to support
themselves. It has been found that
companies brought 10 a place under
such cOnd tons are often not success
full.
1t is far, though to offer to take
stock in a legitimate proposition. 1t
l. also fair 10 arrange for a line Of
credit By giving our endorsement. The
study OF the most up-tO-date methods
OF the live cities of the country will
be made by the committee to ascer-
tain what other propositions are made
as inducements

value. Such tax payers must accept
the increases in assessment at the
same rate of others who failed to car
~ out the law.
The city OF Richmond itself shows a
decrease Of $4,000 in the assessment
OF personal property whereas it
should have shown a like increase
This means a deficiency of almost
5000, 900 in assessment or $500 in
actual taxes at its present rate OF
$l.10. Even for the personal assess
.ments i'll the city to have remained
equal to last years, the city would
be the loser by more than $1,000.
Although the figures of the city
sound big, the per cent of decrease is
small. Charles Potter, township trus-
tee, stated that the citizens failed to
give i'll their property at the true val
ue. thus accounting for the poor show
ing. Wayne township will not come in
for a part in the sweeping increases
as the ass osSmentS were about equal
to last years.
1t is impossible to estimate what
the loss to the county. cities. towns
and townships would be with such de
CrpaSes. under the present tax rates
1t Is merely question OF either ia is
ing the assessments now or adding to
the tax rates in September when they
are fixed. as a certain amount of mon
ey must be raised from the source of
taxation.
Banks Show Increase.
All banks in the county have shown
substantial increases. in most cases
greater than the increase of 1913 over
1912. The banks have not been as
sessed as Yet by the board, but will
remain at the assessed figures accord
ing to present indications.

impact and Immediately turned over
The aviator had been strapped TO his
seat, and he hung helplessly in the

death was only matter OF few
minutes. Some of the victims had
all their clothing burned off. and their
bodies were so black and charred as to-
be almost unrecogniZable.
