$2,8OO,000 DEPOSITED
IN SAVING ACCOUNTS;
EVERYBODY SAVES HERE

Approximate figures on savings ac-
counts carried at the present time by
the five local banking institutions and
the three building loan and savings
associations show about $2,S00.O00 on
deposit or being invested in homes.
Richmond has a population estimat-
ed at $4,000, SO the approximate pro
rata saving account would be little
over 500 for each resident of the
city. Probably a fourth Of the city's
population, however, carry no savings
accounts.
1t was estimated today that there
were $50 Richmond people now pur-
chasing homes for themselves through
loans obtained from building loan
and savings associations.

HAMMOND WINS
ON Law POINT;
May GO FREE

Wayne circuit court has no juris-
diction over Homer Hammond" Judge
Fox ruled in circuit court today.
Hammond, former president of the
board of public works, charged with
failure to provide for his wife, was
found guilty by the jury before which
he was tried month ago.
The attorneys for Hammond pre-
sented a motion asking that the suit
be dismissed because the defendant
had been resident Of Ripley county
fof more than year previous to the
time that suit was brought and that
therefore the local court has no juris-
diction over him. Judge Fox did not
pronounce sentence but instructed
Hammond's attorneys to file petition
fer new trial. The petition was
granted today and Immediately after
wards the judge ruled favorably on
the lack Of jurisdiction" motion.
Tomorrow morning the judge will
either dismiss the case entirely or will
certify it to Ripley county.
Attorneys for Mr.. Hammond contend
that If the suit is dismissed, he will
go free and that suit cannot be brought
against him in the Ripley circuit court.

She said that she realized that
prices now charged for some food
stuffs were justifiable, although ex-
cessive, because of scarcity of sup
ply Of abnormal expectation but, Mrs.
Wilson added, she believed that prices
charged for other foodstuffs were be-
ing manipulated without cause or rea-

for instance, there was no justification
for the prices now charged for butter
and eggs. for several kinds Of vege-
tables and fruits and for certain kinds
of canned goods, notably baked beans
Mrs. Wilson said that if certain
staples were now bringing excessive
prices not founded on an economic
basis she believed the housewives Of
the city would be justified in attempt
ing to bring such prices down to a
normal basis through the establish

Meat once day is sufficient when
supplemented by other tissue building

Nuts, dates and raisins may seem to
be expensive foods but are not in
proportion to the available nutriment
in them. They are concentrated foods.
Nuts, dates and raisins may be used

New York. July 15-Hotel and boarding house keepers all over the state were notified today by local health officers that they would be expected to do their part in prevent ing the spread of infantile paralysis The local health authorities acted under instructions from Dr. Hermann M. Biggs. state commissioner of health, who was led to send out a new circular of information owing to the fact that thousands of families have left New York for the rural dis tricts to safeguard the health of their children.
 ? Proprietors of hotels and boarding health officers of the arrival of any children from infected districts. Those who fail to do so, Dr. Biggs said, will be held personally responsible for any unfayorable developments. The state health department charges local health officers to see that glasses, dishes. spoons and other utensils us- ed in eating and drinking in public places are thoroughly scalded or oth- erwise disinfected after use. This rule has been enforced already in New York City. The instructions apply particularly to soda fountains.
 Commissioner Biggs' circular said:
 'It is earnestly hoped that as, lit tie inconvenience and hardship will be inflicted upon the people of the state as compatible with the vigilant care for the health of those under the Jurisdiction of health officers
