DAWES BANK
imp RECNABLE,'
He TELLS CITY
Former Vice President Puts
ChiCago's RumorS at
Rest in Hurry.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, June 2s.-The Dawes
bank" the Central Republic Bank
and Trust Company, began business
today with enough cash in its vaults
to pay every depositor down to the
last penny.
This "impregnability" was Gen.
Charles Gates Dawes way of OBJ
serving his return to activity in the
institution he founded thirty years
ago.
After almost a score of years of
allowing public demands first place
IN his career, he leaped into the sad
ole at directors meeting Sunday
when he was restored to his former
position as chairman of the board.
The Central Republic had been
subject to heavy Withdrawals. Mer-
ger talk was in the air Liquidation
was discussed by sideliners.
Changes 1t All
In slightly more than TWENTY
four hours of the dynamic action
that made him famed, Dawes
changed it all.
A statement was issued, forcefully
denying merger rumors.
Loans of $95 1000 900 were made
from four other big Chicago banks,
New York correspondents of the
(tonfFnl
construction Finance Corporation.
Then, while rumors still flew, he
stepped dramatically from his Of
flee Monday, a statement in hand.
1t read:
The demands on the Central Re
public Bank and Trust Company
during the last week made necessary
recourse to borrowing to meet them.
These loans have been completed
and place the bank in an impreg-
nable position"
Then He Goes Home
Then Dawes damned his upside
down pipe into a corner of his
mouth and went home to rest.
The Central Republic was formed
through merger of the Central
Trust Company and the National
Bank Of the Republic in July, 1881.
The Central Trust was organized in
1902, when Dawes retired as con-
troller of the currency. While
Vice President, ambassador to Great
Britain and head of the Re-
construction Finance Corporation,
he was honorary chairman.
Dawes resigned as head of the
reconstruction finance corporation
to return to private life, but
his friends doomed him for Vice
President during the Republican
national convention two weeks ago
and he was compelled to issue a
statement making it clear that he
was not a candidate.

With both Oakland and Friends
vile high school basketball teams

Oakland have won three out of four

camp by the score of As to II. The
Oakland girls defeated Kitzmiller 35
to 6 in their final league game.

New Food Circulars Released By
'U" Extension Service

Three recently printed circulars on
milk, vegetables and meat were writ
ten by Miss Margaret McPheeters, nu-
triton specialist of College Park, and
may now be secured from the Extern
sion Service of the University, &C.
cording to Miss Burtis, home demon
stration agent for this county. The
publications are entitled "Milk for
HEALTH" Vegetable Dishes" and
"Meat in the Diet" and their num-
bers are 80, 81 and go, respectively.
In speaking of milk and its value
as food Miss McPheeters says, "It
is the duty of every homemaker to put
forth her best effort to meet the nu-
tritional needs of her family, and
milk is the basis of these nutritional
needs. However, it is not necessary,
nor always wise, to take all of our
milk as a drink. 1t lends itself well
to many combinations with variety
of foods, and can be served equally
we'll for breakfast, lunch, supper or
dinner" ,......
With regard to meat in the diet the
author states, Every thrifty house,
wife on the farm should know the food
value of meat, the cost and amount
to be used by her family, how to select
meat and how to use all parts, includ-
ing the various organs" --.s 49,
Concerning vegetables, Miss Nc
Pheeters also points out that a FAM
lily, to be happy, healthy and con-
tented, according to present day
knowledge, must recognize the impor-
lance of this item in the daily diet,
since it is through vegetables that we
get the majority of vitamens and
bone and muscle building materials.

Someone Unknown Cuts Down
Trees In Washington Spring
Park

During recent days someone I'M
known has thoughtlessly or malic-
iously cut down two of the trees
which were planted in Washington
Spring Park at the tree planting GER
emony, it has just been learned. The
trees were those planted by the work
men and were chopped off close to the
ground.
In hopes that those who are inclined
to tree cutting might think twice be-
fore they act, Miss Lottie Loar, pres
ident of the local Civic Club, has for
warded to this Office poem with a
word of explanation, as follows:
HARM NOT THE TREE
Sometime ago, in one of the parks
of old Seville, Spain, was found a
most unusual "notice" that might well
be an appropriate plea to use in con-
nection with trees we are planting in
our park:
To the Wayfarer
Ye who pass by and would raise your
hand against me
Hearken ere you harm me!
1 am the heat of your hearth on cold
winter nights,
The friendly shade screening you from
the summer sun.
Ny fruits are refreshing draughts,
Quenching your thirst as you journey
on.
am the beam that holds your house,
The board of your table,
And the timber that builds your boat;
I am the handle of your hoe,
The door Of your homestead,
The bed on which you lie,
The wood of your cradle,
And the shell of your coffin.
1 am the bread of kindness and the
flower of beauty.
Ye who pass by, listen to my prayer:
harm me not!

REPORTS ON ACTIVITIES
Twenty Families Are Aided !;
Work Is Given In Return

The Grantsville unit of the County
Relief Committee, of which Mr.. Harry
C. Edwards, Grantsville, is chairman,
met in the high school building on
Tuesday evening at which time Mr..
Edwards reported that twenty fam
lilies had received aid and in each case
work of a constructive nature was
done in payment for the food and
clothing furnished. There were four
cases in which aid was refused be-
cause the applicants declined to work.
Considerable work has been done by
those receiving aid which has reflect
ed itself in a number of ways, such
as repairs on streets, especially in
places which have been neglected;
work on the road leading to the GEM
etery, cleaning of lots in the bury
ing ground which have been allowed
to become unsightly, chopping of wood
for churches and other things.
The committee, the report states.
finds itself in the middle of the task
with supplies of food and clothing
running low and the treasury nearly
empty. Plans were discussed whereby
help may be secured to carry the work
forward until such time as the various
parties aided can again help them
selves. Among the suggestions for
help was an appeal to the various
churches of the community, Sunday
schools and other organizations. Sun
day evening Rev. A. C. Bell, pastor of
the M. E. church, preached a sermon,
his theme being 'The spirit of help
fulness," following which a collection
was taken and the money thus con-
tributed was turned over to the re-
lief committee.
The committee invites the public to
it's meetings so that all may know
the details Of the work; also inquir-
les, which it will be glad to explain in
order that the public may understand
the scope and nature Of the work nee
essary to keep a large number Of
children properly nourished, clothed
and in school.
