But Lecturer Defines 1t So Not

Last night at the Fourth Reformed
Church, Sixteenth and Market, late
corners were obliged to stand in order

Long before the time for the lecture
to women in Zion Church this after
noon all of the seats were taken and
even the choir loft was occupied. The
subject of the lecture was How Wives
Are Made" and the doctor said, in
part:
There are four phases of the rela-
tionship of woman to granddaughter,
sister, wife and mother. The first two
are preparatory to the third; the
third finds fulfillment and glory and
crown in the fourth. God created
the first woman with all the qualities
of wife-she was a wife by creation.

COMMITTEE WORKS
ON SELECTION OF
CITIES FOR BANKS
Only 800 Of $500 National Banks
in Country Not Under Fed
eral Reserve System
Bp Associated PkesS


Washington, d. c.. Feb. 1S.-With
the return of the reserve bank organ
ization committee to-day active work
began upon the definition of the geo.
graphical limits of the reserve dis
tricts and the selection of cities for
reserve banks.
Under the law, national banks, re-
quired to enter the system or event
ually give up their charters, have until
February 2 to signify their intention
to become members
Although only 500 national banks
of the $500 remained to-day on the
list of those which had not taken such
action, 1t was understood that the
committee would withhold announce
ment of cities and districts until the
time limit expires.
Although the committees trip
through the country may have
changed it's opinion of the proper To-
cation of several banks, 1t is not doubt
ed here that banks will be placed in
New York. Chicago and st. Louis,
central reserve cities in the present
national bank system. The location of
the others was still regarded to-day
as an open question.
While the committee is working out
that problem, it's members will consult
with President Wilson about the
makeup of the Federal Reserve
Board, the organization which is to
govern the new system.
The personnel of this board is OF
great interest in banking circles, and
it is known that President Wilson has
examined all names suggested with
the closest scrutiny. Five persons are
to be chosen by the President before
the board is complete, but it is under
stood that all the names will be sent
to the Senate for confirmation at the
same time.

ried into the little church the funeral
procession was still in the process OF
formation at the hotel. The church
was too small to accommodate even q.
small fraction of those who wished to
