LOCAL EFFECT OF
GOLD CERTIFICATE
ISSUE BUT SLIGHT

Action of the United States gov
eminent, replacing federal reserve
notes with gold certificates will
have but little immediate effect
here, according to Rock Island
bankers.
No yellow backs have been issued
since August, 1914, and the news
that gold and gold certificates are
to be issued as soon as the federal
reserve certificates are retired
from circulation will have no par
ticular bearing upon the banking
business in Rock Island at least
for some time, because in order to
secure the gold certificates gold
must be exchanged for them, and
but little gold is in the possession
of the banks.
The gold certificates will reach
Rock Island in due course through
the natural currents of trade and
exchange, but it is not expected
that any Rock Island bank will be
in possession of large number of
gold certificates in the near future.
With the necessity for retaining
an enormous gold reserve in the
national treasury no longer ap
parent, pre-war conditions in which
gold and gold certificates were in
general circulation will gradually
return.

This year still fewer of the
proud, white-haired old heroes OF
's1-65 will bear their colors and
their flowers to the sacred ground
where their comrades are in eternal
bivouac. Last year the thinning
ranks were filled with sturdy, tan
ned youngsters in their army drabs
and navy blues who were honoFed
to march at the side of the veteran
patriarchs on their holy mission.

Gertrude Thieleke, Disfigured In
Auto Skidding Accident, Set

Gertrude Thielcke, 17-year-oid
Rock Island girl. who was thrown
through the windshield of A +.
Connor's auto on the Harrison
street road in Davenport last No
vember when the machine skidded
on a turn, will receive $4,000 from
Conner for the loss of her beauty.
Suit to collect $4,000 damages
on the ground that the girls good
looks were disfigured as a result
of the accident was settled out OF
court after the case had been cali
ed for trial in the district court OF
Davenport and attorneys were
starting the task of selecting a
jury.
Conner, who is heir to a fortune
of $3.50, 900 to 100000 in Hagers-
town, Md, had offered the girl his
Stutz 5-passenger machine in an
earlier attempt to settle the case,
but the offer was rejected and the
cash proposal of $4,000 was then
rendered and accepted.
Miss Thielcke sustained a frac-
tured nose and decorations about
the face when she was thrown
against the windshield of the car.
The wounds left deep sears, and
according to her petition to the
court, detracted from her personal
appearance.
