The Board has rejected 123 directors. In the New York district 134 applications were granted and 48 denied. The Board explains that it nas conBiaerea each case on its merit, but has taken the general position that the mere purchase by two banks of commercial paper in the open market or the mak ing of time or demand loans on col lateral securities having a wide mar ket, or the purchasing of such secur ities, need not necessarily or invari ably be considered as indicating "sub stantial competition" within the mean ing of the. law. The Reserve Board aims to promote competition, and to prevent directors through their con nections with financial institutions from withholding or influencing credit in the local or general loan market. The Reserve Board pro ceeds on the theory that, as a rule, it is-impractical for the same director to serve in institutions which are naturally engaged in competition. T X .

Save Her Occasionally there is found a man who, when he loves and is beloved, looks only at the present and the fu ture, never into the past. If there has been a dark chapter in the woman's life, it makes no difference to him. But more there are who must be lieve that there has been no one else whose iealouslv reaches back into every year that has gone before. Be cause of such men, women tell lies. They conceal the misstep, if there has been one, rather than risk the loss of the man's love. Such a woman is Grace Marshall, in the new Trianirle play. "Not My bis ter," starring Bessie Barriscale and Wm. Desmond, which is coming to the Arcade Wednesday and Thursday. Wronged by a sculptor, in her early years, while working as a model for him, she marries later and is happy in her home until the artist comes again into her life, this time with his evil eye fixed upon her younger sister, whom he asks to pose. Grace has never told anyone of the man's treatment of hor. Unwilling now to confess to her husband and her mother, she is forced to allow her sister to accept the sculptor's offer, but goes daily with the younger girl to the studio, to see that no harm be falls her. Soon the husband is filled with jealousy. Shall Hhe slaw awav from the stu dio, and let her sister go to disgrace? Or shall she, to reveal ine reason aor her visits to the artist, confess to her husband and risk the loss of his love? It is an appalling problem to the woman. Before it has been solved, the artist lies dead with u knife in his heart, there has been an arrest, a murder trial, and a confession from an unexpected source, making one of the most intense series of events seen on the screen in many a day. In the suonort of the stars are Franklin Ritchie as the husband, Alice TnnftV ns the vounirer sister, and Louis Brownell" as the mother. The utnTV is the ioint work of James Montgomery, well-known as a play wright for the speaking stage, and C, Gardner Sullivan, writer of many noteworthy picture plays. GOSSIP FROM NEW YORK New York, Oct. 17 (Special) The people who live in great cities are cul tivating more and more, the "out-of-door habit." New York still enter tains its old-fashioned fondness for bright lights and the Great White Start the Day by Eating Quaker Cereals QUAKER OATS QUAKER WHEAT QUAKER PETTIJOHN'S FLOUR QUAKER CORNMEAL QUAKER PUFFED WHEAT QUAKER PUFFED OATS QUAKER CORN PUFFS QUAKER PETTIJOHN'S' BREAK FAST FOOD Way, but notwithstanding the delights derived from these sources, mere nas been a growing envy of the freedom Irom restraints enjoyeu uy peupic m less crowded communities. Base ball, formerly constituted the principal re sources of city folks in seeking out-of-door amusements. Of course, in New York there are the boat rides down the bay, with afternoons and evenings at the beaches. iBut the di versions are simply brief respites from the routine of life spent ii houses and offices. The "movies" were among the first to provide out- of door shows, and they thereby in creased their popularity. Some of the hotels established roof gardens, which became immensely popular and usual ly very expensive. There have been affairs held in New York's out-of-doors during the present season, among which was the great Shakes pearian production known as "Cali ban," produced at the City College Stadium, several weeks ago. Other important features of the out-of-door amusements were the great May day parties, and the singing of re ligious and patriotic songs by thou sands of people who gathered in Cen tral Park. The European folk cus toms have been stimulated this year, and they have not only helped to fur nish enjoyment for a part of the city population, have served to preserve and popularize this class of enter tainments in the United States. When the open-air drama was furnished it proved so popular that the Grand Opera remained as the only feature needed to complete the triumphs of the year's out-of-door performances. "Die Walkuere," "Cavalleria Rusti cann" and "Pagliacci" were witnessed by audiences of nearly 10,000 people who pronounced the open air operas charmingly successful. The regular Metropolitan orchestra was used, and Madame Gadski, Luca Botta, Emma Itarniggiu and many other Metro politan stars helped to produce the operas. Trust Question Up Again. Din ing the investigation of the so called "money trust" several years ago, there was an endless amount of inquiry into interlocking directors, and the Stanley Investigating Com mittee became famous through its in quinition of Carnegie, Rockefeller, Morgan, Baker. Schawl), and other prominent capitalists and financiers. w with mantel conaiuons. rrnai. you warn able to sell at 25. 35.or 50 cents sell at such figures now. It looks as if some time must elapse before we get back if we ever do to old, standard prices." Consideration was c-iven to the condition whereby some .merchants make a practice of cutting down on quality in order to avoid placing higher prices on their goods. The merchants were agreed that the public is more insistent than ever be fore on receiving rename mercnanaise. At their gatherings it was declared ,that the trash which sold so readily .fifteen or twenty years ago cannot any longer be forced upon the buying public. Expensive Movies Pay. That the rjublic is willing to pay lib eral prices to see first-class moving picture shows has been demonstrated by the marvelous success of Thomas H. Ince's "Civilization," which is now in its fourth month, and still playing to crowded houses. The daring Mr. Jlnce put this peace picture on Broad way at a time when the whole country was apparently blood-thirsty to get into a war in Europe, Mexico, or rhdstly anywhere else. The film "Civilization" has all of the big qual ities that in the drama have served to create higher ideals, and benefit the public mind. It is one of the most marvelous productions ever shown on the screen, and is one of the very few big moving picture productions that has proven to be a genuine Broadway success. Search Light is Wonder. The new Sperry search light, said to be the most powerful in the world, has been attracting a good deal of at tention on the water front. The light has been placed on top of a Brooklyn building, and it has a radiating sur face of nine feet in diameter.The candle power is 1,280,000,000, and the man who operates it declares that lie can see distinctly fifteen miles away. It is also claimed that people nearly fifty miles from New York are able to discover the presence of the light. According to the operators of the great search light, a beam near its source is of such intensity that a pile of rubbish 200 feet away has been set on fire by its rays. Its power is de scribed as so great that "mounted near sea level, it can outline a ship as soon as it appears on the horizon." A Self-Made Fool.
