THE CHRISTMAS
MONEY CLUB.
The First National Bank Offers a
Unique Plan 10 Provide
Christmas Money.

Someone who is evidently student of
human nature has evolved novel plan
through which we may all be provided
with an ample supply of Christmas mon
ey, not miserly little handful of quar-
ters and dimes, but big double handful
of tens and fives and ones and shining
jingling silver besides. c. H. Howick,
cashier of the First National Bank is to
be congratulated upon having secured
the plan for this city.
The concientious banker feels that he
has not performed his entire duty to the
public when he alone takes care of the
banking requirements of the business
people and of those in affluent circum-
stances. The modern bank has savings
department, designed to encourage the
accumulation of small amounts by those
who have fixed incomes from their en-
ployment, and also to provide a safe
medium for the deposit of larger sums at
fair rate of interest. Now, best of all,
comes the Christmas Money Club for this
demonstrates how rapidly money will
accumulate if deposited in the bank sys-
tematically. The boys and young men
of to-day will be the big fnanciers of to-
morrow. No one understands this bet
ter than does Mr.. Howick who, through
the Christmas Money Club, makes it pos
sible for everyone to open bank ac-
count, and to secure knowledge of the
principles of banking at first hand, by
visiting the bank at regular periods and
rubbing elbows" with the officers and
bookkeepers. And the Money Club
should be taken advantage of by the girls
and the young women-God bless them,
every one-for how they would delight
to let the Christmas Spirit" have full
sway without the necessity of counting
the cost.
Thirty-eight weeks makes up the full
club year. Two cents deposited the first
week and increased by two cents each
week will amount to S1482, and first
deposit of FIVE cents, increased by FIVE
cents each week will bring a return of
$37 .05. The club is so planned that
members may accumulate almost any
amount desired. Members may pay the
larger amount first and decrease the de-
post each week, or they may deposit the
same amount each week for thirty-eight
weeks. The plan is educational and
unique. If we wish to have a given
amount within the year for any purpose
the money may be systematically saved
in this way. The idea is SO good that we
suggest to our readers a call at the bank
for further particulars. Adv.

AGAIN IN THE
LIME-LIGHT
Wife of DR.. Dalton VI. Miller Asks
Divorce Decree, and Seems
tO:Have a Reason.

Sheriff Fisher last Saturday received
summons from the Probate Court Of
Licking County for service on Dr. Dalton
II. Miller of this city in divorce proceed
ings filed in that court by the Doctors
wife, Lottie Lavert Miller.
The plaintiff, who for past few months
has been with her parents at Newark, o.,
charges cruelty and neglect in her peti-
tion. She charges the plaintiff, who is a
physician Of some note and considerable
notoriety, with improper capers before
coming to Celina, that in 1907 and 1908,
at Newark and at the Davidson Hotel at
Columbus, he committed adultery with
one Mia Beadle, and at other times re
mained away from home for weeks at a
time, and in company with women whom
the plaintiff cannot now name"
VI NAS NSllhd Gnu Ol u6I trouble the
plaintiff, in her petition, says: Begin
ming in the summer of 1919, and contin-
tinuing up to September, 1912, he COM
mitted adultery at various times with one
Mary Wintermute in the city of Celina,
Ohio; the defendants attention to the
said Wintermute woman causing the sep
aration of her and her husband in Sep
tember, 1912, and they have continued
separate ever since said date.
Since October, 1912, up to the pres
ent time in Celina, Ohio, and elsewhere,
he has committed adultery with his Office
girl, Margaret Dysert."
Very few people became acquainted
with Mrs. Miller during her residence in
this city, but it was generally under
stood that the couple had marital trou-
bles. The explosion, while of the most
sensational character, was not unexpect-
ed. Mrs. Miller left here last December
and went to her fathers home at Han
over. She asks for a decree in divorce
and all other relief to which she is enti-
tied in equity.

LIMITS DEBATE
ON TOLLS BILL
Chairman AdamsOn Introduces
Special Rule I'm House
Prolonged Discussion.

Presentation Of Rule Held by Some
Members to Mean That Opposition
to Repeal Measure Is More Formld.
able Than Was supposed-lnterna.
tlonaI Complications Feared II Bill
ls Not Promptly Enacted.
Washington, March 12.-Chairman
Adamson Of the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce IN
troduced a special rule limiting de-
bate on the bill that provides for the
repeal Of the clause in the Panama
canal act exempting American coast
wise vessels from payment OF tolls.
The presentation of this rule means
that the opposition to the repeal Of
the bill is more formidable than was
supposed. 1t became apparent that
In the absence of a rule limiting dis
cussion that debate on the repeal bill
would be indefinitely prolonged. Ac-
cordingly Mr. Adamson, who repre-
sents the administration on this ques-
ton in the house, decided to resort to
the rule which limits debate to Is
hours and prohibits the offering of
amendments.
Only in extreme cases is a rule
such as is proposed devised by the
leaders. The tolls bill will be brought
up in the house early next week. 1t
is expected that the measure will be
transferred to the senate by March
10 or 20.
President Wilson's personal efforts
to effect the passage of the bill have
served to revive the reports that In.
ternational complications will ensue
If the measure is not promptly en-
acted.
The impression is growing in
Washington that uneasiness over the
attitude of Japan toward the United
States is the cause for the presidents
concern over the Panama canal re-
peal bill. Outwardly the administra-
ton seems bent on gaining the good
will Of Great Britain. In this connec.
tion 1t is pointed out that as an ally
Of Japan Great Britain exercises a
large influence over the far eastern
power.

OPER-HOUSE DENIED
TO LOCAL TALENT

Council held lengthy session last
Tuesday evening but transacted very
little business. All members were pres
ent but Winter and Mayor Rice presided.
Lengthy discussions of sewerage mat
tiers, bond sale, band concerts and the
closing of the opera house kept the dads
in session until after ten o'clock.
Mayor Rice stepped on the toes of the
Shakspere club and several others by
issuing an edict closing the doors of the
opera house to all gatherings, thereby
shutting out the last two numbers of the
Shakspere lecture course and putting a
quietus to compile of home talent enter
tainments. His action was based on a
report of the State Department Inspec-
ton of Public Buildings made during the
fall of 1911. Mayor Kenney at that time
closed the hail. but couple of months
later Mayor Miller, after being inducted
into Office, resinded the order so far as
the lecture course numbers and home
talents were concerned.

ASQUITH PROPOSAL
BEFORE COMMONS
Meets with Cool Reception From
the UniOniStS.

London, March 10.-The British
governments plan for the concilia.
tion of the Unionists of Ulster in con-
nection with the Irish home rule bill
was laid before the house of com
mons. 1t met with cool reception
from the Unionists.
The terms Of Premier Asquith's Of
fer were that a poll should be taken
Of the parliamentary electors of each
county of Ulster to decide whether
they should be excluded from the op-
Grafton of the bill for a period of six
years from the first meeting Of the
new Irish parliament. This would un-
doubtedly result in the exclusion
from Irish home rule of the counties
of Antrim, Armagh, Londonderry and
Down.
John E. Redmond, leader of the
Irish Nationalist party, said his party
is willing to make great sacrifices for
peace, but the premier has gone to
the extreme limit of concessions.
While the Irish Nationalists dislike
the proposals, still, If their opponents
accept them frankly, his colleagues
are prepared to do the same.
