question answered by Mrs. Murphy :
Every good citizen at this time should do
his share toward strengthening the Federal
Keerve Banking System which n:r Govern
ment has created with its billion dollars of
resources to stand ba'k of its member banks
and all their depositors.
You can contribute directly to the strength
of t'.iis system, and at the same time secure
its protection by depositing your money,

posit with us gut's directly into the new
system, wbo'v it is always ready for you
when wanted.

Chief Rayburn, on information lie
received went first to Lyman'.-tfhouse
at First and Jefferson and placed
him under arrest. When asked
whore he had left Roberts ho said:
"I left him at the Foley hotel at
about 2:15 but that he had a room
at the Grando Rondo Hotel.

Roberts wore a hat and Lyman a

Dick Roberts Is a Eon of a Meth

for tho past two "or throe years, at
tended the local high school, drove
taxicabs and worked at other jobs.
Young Lyman has always had tho
name of being a ery Industrious,
quiet young man. He worked in the
railroad shops, was a good workman
and in two months would have been
a full-fledged mechanic. So far
apparently his connection with the
hold up is not fully established, ps
only one man "stuck up" the restau
