Although Frank Strayer and DIR. w.

ed that they would seek the nomina-
ton for mayor on the Republican
ticket at the May primaries in 1921,
no Democratic candidate has come
forth.

clerk, whose name has been mentioned
as a Democratic candidate said he
would not try for the nomination. Il
am out OF politics" was his answer.
Henry Farwig, who has been the
Democratic nominee in several cleo
lions, said he had not considered max
ing the race.
No definite Improvements of can
didates for the Democratic county
ticket have been made.
No State Announcements.
The paucity of Democratic candi-
dates for office is reflected also in
their attitude toward the state ticket.
DIR. G. B. McCulloch, of Indianapolis,
has been mentioned for the nomina-
ton for governor by the Indiana Dem
ocratic club.
Henry N. Spaan and Evans Wooden,
both of Indianapolis. have been men

WOMEN BANKERS
BETTER Than men

Here's to you, lady bankers! Tell
lers in Richmond banks say that wom-

careful banking. More women have
bank accounts nowadays, too.
The average woman takes pains
to keep her checking stubs straight,
and does not overdraw or near the
limit OF her account with as much
freedom as the average man." said the
teller In one bank. This overdrawing
of accounts is the greatest menace
we have" he said. "Of course, It Is
unlawful, but lot of people have to
be reminded of this fact"
Deposit blanks are practically ignor-
ed by many, teller explained. He
pointed to the patrons tables In the
bank lobby where deposit blanks were
strewn in plenty.
ut always simplifies matters for
both the patron and the bank II when
making q deposit he counts his mon
ey and makes out the blank to the
amount he wishes to turn in. A large
