NEW MUSIC FOR
MADISON SCHOOLS
Big Carnival Booked For Fall and
City VIII Be In Gala
Attire

There will be change in the
music in the schools of Madison
county this year, the second year
that music has been prevalent in
every school of the county, this
record is rivaled by few counties
in the state. Every teacher in
Madison county, although it is
vacation time, is hard at work,
studying. This method of keep
ing abreast of the situation which
was inaugurated last year, is
proving very beneficial. The col
ored teachers Of the county are
said by Supt Edwards to be
among the most energetic en-
Iployed.
Their examinations will take
place on May Fl and r. and it is
expected that there will be better
averages this year than last, since
the persistent study upon the part
OF the instructors during the va
cation period will result in an itl-
Iproyement generally.
Plans are. to be under way soon
Ffor the school carnival to be held
in Richmond and this affair will
Eoutdo former ones, in point of
elabOrateness and extensiveness,
| if the theories Of the County
Board and Supt. Edwards are
realized.
1t is hoped that the Street paw
| ing will have been completed by
this time and that the city will be
in good condition to receive and
entertain the hundreds who will
be here. 1t is the intention to
provide abundance of music and
to give the children a treat in the
way of a day Of enjoyment. The
program has not been completed.
however, nothing will be aniss in
the way of entertainment, par
ents OF children from the entire
county, as well as others will be
allowed to witness a spectacle in
the way of a children's pageant
| tht is seldom if ever equalled by
a county school. Definite plans
! for the event will be announced
later.

BANK PROTECTION
DOUBLY ASSURED
Noted Pinkerton Agency to Take
Hand In Suppression of
Crime

Bankers Of Richmond, all of them,
are to be recognized as the foremost
in the state of Ketucky, in being rep
resented by new phase of protection
by Pinkerton National Detective Ag-
ency and will doubtless be followed by
banks throughout the state, which is
being canvassed by representatives Of
the noted organization held in con-
slant dread by the criminal
banks throughout the state, which are
ty comes with great satisfaction up
on the part of the bankers, and, fol
the first time, absolutely insures
against any and all losses from small
forgeries and petty thefts, to the
celebrated cracksmen, general safe
blowing etc. The unlimited service, of
fered by the agency will not cnly be
represented at the banks of the city
but q number of jewelers.. Dcpositors
in Richmond banks are not fearful OF
losing their savings, should q robbery
occur, as a matter of fact, however
they will be ably assured henceforth
that nothing OF the sort" which
might happen, will cost them any
thing. This IS the first time, it is
believed that the great organization
has been officially represented by the
Richmond business men in this gener-
al manner and lisa compliment to them
in the way Of desiring all possible
protection to themselves as well as
their depositors.
The agency, as is generally known
operates Oh a worldwide basis, and
the fact that the insurance Of the
! banks has been included in its cate
CORY Of Investigations, rc1ders it al
the more important MIR. Ii. f. Boul-
ware, of Cincinnati, was :. visitor in
the city Friday, and as a result, the
| four banks of Richmond soon become
patrons of this insurance feature.
The banks will be provided witt
cards which will be hung in the win
dows, signifying that they and theil
l'depositors are guaranteed safety thru
the operations of this great institu-
ton. Kentucky has lately been The
scene of operations upon the part
of gang Of very persistent and sue
] cessful bank robbers during the sew
eral months past and this extraordin-
.aFy degree Of safety will, it is be-
! lliesed, cause them to hestltate, since
/ they win have the shrewdest class OF
man-hunters in America, TO content
with if a robbery is pulled off.
| The fact that all of the bankers OF
/ the city become affiliated with the
agency is indicative of the progress
siveness of the city and Richmond will
be at the head cf the list thus rep
resented.
