VATICAN MAKES DENIAL.
Says Pope Has Not Taken Steps to m-
 tervene in Ruhr Squabble.

Rome, March 31, (By Associated Press) The vatican today issued q categorical denying that Pope Plus had taken any steps to intervene in the Ruhr situation because such a rumor is destitute of any truth"
 The Giornale d'Italia says it's re- ports from other sources had already convinced it that no such action had been taken.
 It recalls in this connection the feeling aroused in France by the pope's allusion to hedge of bayon- cts, during the Genoa conference. It observes that Pope Benedict XIV. is sued an appeal for a cessation of hos tilities in 1917 but submits that the conditions are radically changed now.

CHURCH NEEDS
MORE MONEY

INDIANAPOLIS. May %. - DR..
Henry b. Master. OF Philadelphia, to-
day submitted to tho Presbyterian
General assembly, tho esth annual
report Of the Presbyterian Board OF
Ministerial Relief and Sustentation,
OF which he is general secretary.
He said the fact that more than
one-half Of the Presbyterian churches
had a membership OF less than 100
apiece made II necessary for pen
sion system sustained by the larger
and richer churches.
The Presbyterian church was a
pioneer in such pension system, but
II was inadequate, he said. The relief
department Of the board needed 81.
100000 a year. for income for retired
ministers, widows and orphans Of
ministers. and for support of the
three Presbyterian homes and the
tuberculosis sanitarium. The board
needed another 100000 year for
the church's share OF annuities in the
sustentation department, which is
one-fith supported by the previous
savings OF the annuitants.
DR.. Master pleaded for an cndow-
ment fund sufficient TO care for tho
growing demands of pensioners, and
asked tho general assembly TO set
up new laymen's movement TO
raise additional endowment OF $751;
100000 during tho next three years.

LOUIS }. BUTCHER, South Dakota.

Louis ]. Kutcher has n chain Of
five general merchandise stores in
South Dakota. His story is frought
with dramatic excitement and sus-
pense, and for that reason | am go
ing TO let Mr.. Butcher tell il, as fully
rs possible.
If was always crazy TO go out
West, and sixteen years ago achieved
my desire, when quite n child. For n
year | worked for various concerns in
the Dakotas, and from the years prof
its saved S25. With this l paid for
course in bookkeeping and business
correspondence, in the meantime max
ing my living in restaurants after
school and Saturdays and Sundays.
IL realized after working in n store
that | could not save any money III
the city. so with $50 l got horse
and q little clothing and set out ped
ding. Being young, ! took the hard
ships as a lark.
"Later | worked out n regular
route in the vicinity of Freeman and
Marion. S. ID. Through honesty |
gained good trade and the confidence
of the farmers.
when we opened our first store,
with savings of $500, all the mer-
chants in town looked down upon us
as peddlers. Some of them gave an
ultimatum to the grocery houses we
traded with that if they sold us goods
the other stores would stop buying
of them. After Il month. two or three
of the leading houses refused to sell
us. We had TO get the goods from
farther points, aud th,S encourage us
TO greater effort. We sold goods on
a still lower margin and got the big
gest share of the business in town,
though our stock was very small.
"A lot of the country business is
on trade basis; the farmer brings in
the eggs and takes merchandise. As
soon as we came into this town one
merchant began paying three and four
cents above market for eggs, thinking
TO put us out of business or make US
raise the price OF our goods. We lost
money for three months, but event
ually he gave IN his game, as he was
losing more than we.
In another town three merchants
were on the city council. and made
an ordinance that any new man in
the general merchandising business,
of whom they had any doubts what
ever must pay license of $40 >
month for the first year.
Il was arrested twice. and threat
ened a third time; finally l told the
