WILSON VETOES POSTAL BILL Objects to Section Repealing Bank Law Clause. Washington, Sept. 12—President Wil- son has vetoed the bill to raise the limit of individual deposits in postal savings banks to $1,000 because it con- tained a provision repealing a section of the new bank law which provides that federal funds must be deposited only with members of the federal re- serve system. ‘fife President suggested that the bill be amended to extend for another twelve months the time in which banks not members of the new system have within which to surrender the government deposits they now hold. The President's message said, part: “With the most of the provisions of the bill I am in hearty accord. They the changes of law which they propose would undoubtedly be very beneficial to the postal saving system, but a por- tion of Section Ii. seeks to make a in ‘change in the federal reserve act of last December, which I venture to re- gard as unwise. “When the federal reserve act was passed it was thought- wise to make the inducements to state banks to en- ter the federal reserve system as many and as strong as possible. It was, therefore, provided in the act that gov- only in banks which were members of the federal reserve system, The prin- most directly under the supervision and regulation of the congress itself. ered in figuring the percentage.

A Most Prominent Physician Dead Dr. Adolphus G. Wood, oné of the most prominent physicians, as well as useful citizens of Shelby County, died at his home in Lentner_ Sunday morning, September 6, 1914, at 10:30 o’clock after a brief illness. Dr. Wood was born in Santiago, Island of Cuba, March 18, 1831, dur- ing the temporary stay of his parents in that country. Inthe fall of 1834 the family returned to this country and located in Hannibal, Mo., and the allowing: spring came to Shelby County where Dr. Wood has contin- ued to bea resident and an honored citizen ever since. On January 20,1863, he was mar- ried to Miss Mary Mitchell, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Mitchell, of Shelbyville. ‘o this union twelve children were barn, nine of whom are living. They ares Ferdnando, of Houston, Texas; Mrs. Maudell Reinheimer, Mrs. Zelma Smith, Miss Bunton, of Butler, Mo.; Misses Clunette and Gertrude and Dr. A. M. Wood, of Lentner; Lamar, of Monroe City, and Mrs. Irene Smith of this city, all of whom, with the faithful wife, mourn his death, and all were with him when death came except Ferdnando. Dr. Wood never wholly abandoned his profession, but’ gave up active practice to accept the presidency of the Lentner Bank, which high’ and responsible position he has held con- tinuously since its organization many yearsago. During all the years of .his resi- dence in Shelby County, Dr. Wood was a man who was held in tne high- est esteem by his friends who could |be counted almost in endless num- bers. By his faithful and tender ad- ministrations to the sick and needy he had endeared himself in the hearts of a multitude of people, who will, as long as life lasts, hold his name up to the rising generation:as a model which it would be well for us all to follow. Funeral services were held at the Lentner Christian church Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock conducted by Rev. Baxter Waters, of Lathrop, Mo. The remains were laid to rest in the I. O. O. F. Cemetery in this city.— Shelbina Torchlight. Missouri School Day Public schools of the state will have a big feature day at the Missouri State Fair on Monday, September 28, Special entertainment and educational features will be provided to amuse and instruct the thousands of school children who visit the Fair at that time. Throughout the central part of thé state it is the intent to have the schools dismiss for a holiday and visit the Fair on that day. Although this announcement has just been made it has already aroused great interest in educational circles. School boards and teachers feel very enthusiastic over the opportunity thus afforded of a day’s visit to Missouri’s wonderful display, which among hundreds of other attractions has an educational display that is of rare merit. All children under twelve years old will be admitted to the Fair Grounds free on that day, and many of the schools will attend the Fair in a body. As a special incentive to create a more general interest in “State Fair School Day’’ a beautiful _ Missouri State Flag, adopted at the last gener- al assembly, will be presented the school having the largest attendance.
