ADJUSTMENTS
At the Lyric

Another tabloid musical comedy is the offering for this week at the Lyric theatre, which has already glad dened the hearts of its patrons by the announcement that Keith vaudeville will be brought back to this popular house. beginning next week.
 The title of the piece for this week is '"The Four Husbands" The company is better than the average in talent, but the material provided in the lines proves a handicap which not even hard work can overcome. In fact "Thc Four Husbands" offers meager entertain ment, in so far as the book itself is concerned, altAough some decidedly pretty and attractive costumes worn by the feminine members of the com pany brighten the stage considerably and one number entitled "The Tempta tions" would a credit to much more pretentious s.ow. The company evil dently did its best and vocalIy was quite an improvement over some of its predecessors.
 Margaret Schaller and Betty Caldwell as the two Van Courtland sisters proved to be two divergent but emit nently pleasing types and not with out charm. Miss Caldwell mas an agreeable voice and decided gifts for musical comedy, while Miss Schaller pleased in almost equal measure Among the men George w. Jinks and Howard Burkholder played the two principal parts as well. perhaps. as the limitations of those parts permitted.

DEMOCRATIC LEADERS EXPECT CONTEST FOR PRESIDENCY TO BE MARKEDLY FREE OF PERSONALITIES

St. Louis, June 12.-Democratic leaders looking forward to the campaign are virtually in accord that it will be marked With inspiring oratory, a clash of intel lects between President Wilson and MT. Hughes and markedly free from person. alites.
 None of them think of belittling the ability of MT. Hughes as a campagner. They have not forgotten his campaigns in New York nor his speech in Youngs- town, O., in 1908, when he opened the fight for Taft They also realize his physical fitness to go into four months campaign.
 To meet MT. Hughes and the repub- lican campaigners behind him, they ex- pect to call upon the best of the demo- cratic party. Whether he personally will go into the campaign will be decided by the President, but it is probable that an effort will be made to get him to speak, for no matter how much the leaders may rely on other leading demo- crats, they realize the weight of direct word of the President.
 Democratic leaders recall that al- though there has been some argument against a President taking the stump for reelection, precedents are not lack

be incorporated with its stock fully paid within the next week and the institution is expected to open for business about July 1.
 Robert Jemson, Sr., is said to be the choice of the stockholders and directors for president, and his tentative agreement to accept the position is authoritatively reported. While the name of the man. ager of the institution has not yet been announced, it is understood that a man prominent in industrial circles in the state is being considered by the officials of the company, and will probably be elected after the incorporation is completed.
 The directors of the institution will be among the most prominent men in indus trial and financial circles in the district, and the stock is held by number of leading citizens who are keenly inter- ested in the formation of the company.
 The movement to organize a Morris plan bank similar to those in a number of other large cities throughout the cour- try, was inaugurated some weeks ago, and it received the immediate co-opera : tion of financiers and industrial leaders. The principal purpose of the institution is to make loans to people working on salaries and wages at the regular com mercial banking interest rates. Plans are also provided by which people of small means can have a safe form of in vestment with liberal dividend payments, which can be turned into cash at a mo- ment's notice. These institutions have met with great success in other cities and have done much to wipe out the loan sharks and the evils of excessive in- terest charges.
 Of the capital stock, s75,0OO is to be held by local men and the other $25, 900 will be taken by the Industrial Finance corporation which originated the plan and which owns a fourth interest in the il lstitutions all over the country. The entire control will be vested in Birming ham men, but they will receive the CO., operation and help of the parent company at all times. Robert Jemison Sr., who is slated for the presidency of the local institution, has been a leader in the if -:ancial and industrial development of the district for many years.
