Cheers Shut-InS
With Photograph

BELLEVUE. Ohio. Feb. 19.-When
Thomas A. Edison invented the
phonograph he had no idea what
part il would play in cheering up
sick folks in Bellevue. Ohio. If Edi-
son were to see Frank w. Smith. of
Bellevue, pushing wheelbarrow
containing a phonograph. he'd per-
haps ask what Smith was doing.
Smith cheers up the sick with his
phonograph. He has been visiting
sick persons in Be levue for years.
and he always wheels his talking
machine. Wherever he hears of
"shut-in'' he starts out.
Flowers aren't just the thing for
sick folk declared Smith. "A
phonograph record does them more
good"
Sickness in any family is a sure
sign that Smith will read 1t in the
paper and be on his way with his
phonograph.

VENGEANCE FOR SEDAN
London Story of Wholesale Slaught
err of Germans There
(Signed)
~ - NH~,1ls.

London, Oct. 3-During the strateg
cal retreat of the Allies southwark
from the Belgian frontier, the French
troops exacted from the Germans
bloody revenge for the French defeat
at Sedan forty-four years before, ac-
cordng to the Paris correspondent of
The Daily Mail, who says the Germ
ans were led into a trap which cost
them thousands of men. The French
could have held their position indef-
initely but strategy required them to
continue falling back with the remain
der of the Allies along the line. Here
is the correspondents story OF the
second battle Of Sedan:
The French general ordered his
troops to fall back across the river
and take up positions on the opposite
heights. The bridges were mineo.
but were left standing in order to de-
ceive the Germans into thinking that
the French were retreatng hastily
The ruse succeeded The Germans
advanced across the bridges in close
formation when several German
regiments had crossed the French
blew up the bridges and the French
artillery started firing at score of
German columns. which retreated
hastily to the river, only to find the
bridges gone.
The French regiments then adyanc-
ed with quick firers and the merciless
Staying continued until dusk Many
Germans threw down their arms and
attempted to swim the river and
large numbers were drowned When
nightfall came the French brought up
searchlights and continued the earn
age
The artillery threw shells at the
rate of a dozen rounds a minute into
the German ranks. and varied its tao
tics by throwing incendiary shells into
the forest, where part OF the German
force had taken refuge. The burning
woods lit up the whole front OF ff-
ten miles
In the morning an armistrice of
two hours was granted to allow the
Germans to bury their dead The
French had suffered the loss of only
a handful

their attention to the financial situa-
ton, urging them to furnish all the
money needed for legitimate business
needs of citizens of Vermont, and
asked them not to loan money to
speculate in stocks. Since that time
| have made a weekly call upon all
the banks and an examination of
those reports, with the information
which / have received directly from
the officers of the banks, personally,
shows that there has been no hoard
ing of money by Vermont State
banks during the past two months,
and that they have met all legitimate
demands for loans by citizens of Yer
mont, with the possible exception of
a few large loans to manufacturers
and dealers who have previously Dor
rowed of Boston and New York banks
Some of these manufacturers and
dealers have been refused the usual
accommodations in those cities I'M
less they would pay or 8 per cent.
for the money, and they have asked
Vermont banks to accommodate them
which has been done in nearly every
case SO far, at per cent. and in fact,
the State banks of Vermont so far as
| have been able to learn, have not
increased the rate to borrowers since
the European war began, and the
maximum rate here has been and is
now per cent.

HAVE NOT RAISED RATES
Commissioner Says Vermont Banks
Are Not boarding Money

Newport, Oct 5.-The cores

ing of money by banks has been Civ

lows:
Washington. d. C., Sept "A, 1914.
Frank c. Williams, bank commission
er. Newport, VT
Reports now being received by the
comptroller of tho currency from ma
tional banks throughout the country
indicate that a money scarcity is be-
ing occasioned in large measure be-
cause Of the boarding of funds by
many national banks which are
carrying reserves in some cases two
or three times as great as required
by law and also that credits are be-
ing restricted and excessive rates OF
interest are being charged to custom
ers. There is at this time more cur
rency in the country than at any time
in its previous history. There have
been issued through the treasury de-
partment since August fourth more
than $500 900 900 of additional ma
tional bank currency, which, together
with the relaxation in business.
should create an abundance of loan
able funds This department will
withdraw government deposits from
banks found to be boarding money
and charging excessive rates of inter
est, and will re-deposit them with
banks whose funds are being loaned
at reasonable rates to meet the legiti
mate demands of business and for
moving the crops. This department
would like very much to have your
cooperation by its efforts to remedy
these unsatisfactory conditions and
respectfully asks If it would not be
possible for YOU to secure from all
State banks and trust companies in
your State. statements which will
show thei. cash reserves as of re-
cent date. the rates of interest which
they are charging on existing loans
and the rates which they are demand.

this department the benefit of the in.
formation disclosed by these reports.
Il is confidently believed that if all
banks can be persuaded to use their
resources intelligently and consider
ately and at reasonable rates OF in.
te1est to meet the legitimate demands
in their respective communities. the
whole situation can be greatly reliev-
ed and business restored to a salts

to the green. If I had hit rubber
core with equal force, the ball would
have gone far over.
In putting, as in the short ap-
proaches, there is no denying that the
guilty. may be hit with confident force,
That is to say, the player feels that he
can aim right at the pin and not fee
that the ball will go far beyond it,
On the putt the guilty seemed to roll
exceedingly true when hit firmly, and
il could be hit with a firmness that
meant much greater accuracy in di
rection. Putting first the guilty and
then the rubber core, from point fif-
teen yards from the hole. / found that
the hard ball to be up had to be hit
with enough force to make the club
head finish several inches higher than
was the case after putting the rubber
core On the short putt, too, there
had to be a more pronounced follow
through of the guilty to get satisfac-
tory results
