Dec. 6—Philadelphia’s experiment of giving free Sunday afternoon concerts in halls hung with beautiful paintings and holding world-; famed statues has met with success. | More than a thousand persons have crowded the galleries of the Philadel-1 phia Academy of Fine Arts at each of the concerts gix-en thus far. In planning the “musicales” the committee of the academy wanted to "fill the j need of music for the people on Sunday" and to give music in “sympathetic surroundings.” Although hundreds of seats are provided a complete Informality reigns at the concerts. Those so moved walk from gallery to gallery viewing the paintings while listening to the music. Some of the leading musicians in the country have been engaged. Ancient j Quaker “blue laws” keep Philadelphia i closed on Sunday, it is, however, per-1 missable tc give entertainments where no admission fee is charged. The concerts will be continued as long as the contributed funds last. WAR SONG, “OVER THERE,” NETS AUTHOR sl6l A WORD. fTTnttpU Pros Service) New York.

PUBLIC SERVICE I National Council of Defense Suggests Plans for New Body of Reserves. TO REPLACE GUARD Quick Action Has Been Obtained in Many Counties of Indiana. Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 6 —lndiana is preparing in a definite and practical way. in advance, to meet extraordinary. war demands of all kinds of labor, by working out in Hoosierdom the large plans suggested by the I National Council of Defence for the creation of a United tSates Public ! Service Reserve of volunteer worki ors who are to take the places of ‘ workers who have gone to the colors. County Councils of Defense have been asked by Will H. Hays, chairman of the Indiana State Council of Defense, to name county directors to act with N. E. Squibb, a member of the State Council of Defense, who has been appointed Federal Director for Indiana of the United States Public Service Reserve. Quick action has been obtained in many counties, and the work or organizing throughout, the state is going forward at full speed. As in the cases of the food and fuel administration in the state, the United States Public Service Reserve has found it advantageous to use existing and efficient agencies of co-ordination, and fe building its organization through the State Council of Defense and the County Defense Councils. An advisory committee of the I nited States Public Service Reserve is to be established in Indiana under the State Council of Defense. Mr. Squib has already opened headquarters for the movement in the offices of the State Council of Defense, at the state house. In each county one or more enrolling agents of the reserve are to be active. County agricultural agents will be enlisted to help in working out farm labor problems. It Is not the purpose to make a drive merely to get "members ' for the United States Public Service Reserve. Neither Is this planned as a i "boiled shirt club” or a means of evading patriotic duty. It is for workers of the kind willing to man any sort of machine, and to struggle, iif necessary. When there is a need for adult males in a certain line of industry, and the call is made for workers in that line, it will be the business of the United States Public ■ Service Reserve, operating through the Councils of Defense and its estab- . lished. state-wide organizations, to go out and get the men who are need- ■ cd to meet the specific emergency. Discussing the work, Mr. Squibb I says: I | “Certificates and buttons will be j issued to men who volunteer as workers in the Public Service Reserve, and xvho thus seek places in which they can make themselves effective in xvar service. Enrollment in this organization means that the willing worker makes himself easy to find when the government needs him for war duty back of the lines. Enrollment in the Public Service Reserve does not excuse any man from taking arms for • military duty when he is called. The Reserve does enable men who are not called to military service to do their part in bringing about the unification and organization of the nation’s man power to work and fight for the safety of our country, the preservation of civilization and the future peace of the world. “Every man in America must devote his whole energy to the service of the nation. Every ounce of our power must be made effective. While more men have volunteered for service than can be placed at this time, the day is coming when the demand for men will go ahead of the supply of man-power. The United States Public Service Reserve is a forehand- > ed movement. It. is preparing in ad- : vanee. It proposes to develop its > forces and to be organized and ready : to go out and get man-power when ; that power is needed, as it surely xvill : be needed as our work grows and as : our man-power more and more is : drawn into military service. ; "It is the purpose to create a great and effective organization for war : service without thh confusion that inevitably would result from a s scramble for opportunities to render s service. The reserve work would c seek to fit the individual into his war ! task according to his capacity.” A LITTLE WANT i AD : NOW AND THEN. WILL ALWAYS HELP THE I MOST PROSPEROUS OF t MEN.
