1,600,000 OALLQHS OF GAS BEING SAVED EACH SUUDAY

That Is the Record for Indiana, According to Oil Supervisor Felker.

Gasottneless Sunday in Indiana is saving 1.600,000 gallons of fuel each week. These figures are authenticated by A. H. Felker, supervisor of oil and gasoline inspection in the state. Mr. Felker «Ud each Sunday 200 tank c*s of gasoline of 8,000 gallons Capacity eacbr are saved by autoists.

[EYES OF METHODISM TURN TOJEM HAUTE

Conference Sessions Announced to Open Tuesday—Presiding Bishop Just Back From War.

By Anna Bowles Wiley.

Perhaps one of the largest and most important bodies convening in the state will open sessions here beginning next Tuesday, when the members of the Northwest Indiana Conference will come for their annual meeting. The conference meeting will be held at the Centenary Methodist church, with Bishop Francis J. Mc€pnnell, D. D. L. L. D., presiding.

Tuesday evening the conference will open at 7:30 o'clock with an address by Chaplain

F. Dancy, recently re

turned on the 16th of August from serving one and one-half years in France. Re*. Dancy was, before his entrance into war service, pastor of the First Methodist church at Knglewood, Chicago. He will speak on "Heart Throbs of the Great War." This will be followed by a reception to the visitors. Mayor Charles R. Hunter. behalf of the pity, will welcome the ministers and guests. Dr. Walter G. Rice will respond for the church, while Rev. Salem B. Towne will speak for the conference. The greater part of the day Tuesday will be given over, beginning at u. m.. with conference examinations, through which method the standing and proficiency of and amount of work done during the year of each minister is determined by the bishop.

Wednesday will open with Holy Communion, administered at 8:30 o'clock, while in the afternoon the Rev. Worth M. Tippy, formerly pastor of Centenary, will open his series of four lectures on "The Social Problems as They Relate Themselves to the Church," a topic upon which the Rev. Tippy is an authority and in which lie has made considerable research. This lecture, as are all sessions of the conference, is open to the public. Thursday at 11:15 o'clock, Bishop McConnell will deliver a lecture on "The European Problem." Bishop McConnell has recently returned from Europe and he will convey information of interest at this time, dealing with inside questions regarding the war. On Friday evening the Rev. Merton F. Rice, of Detroit, will be heard in his famous lecture, "Carry on, America." which is attracting attention wherever he speaks. Dr. Rice is one of the most eloquent men in America today and is so regarded vby critics, who have declared that Dr. Rice has few, if any, peers on the platform today. This lecture will not be free, but the sums of twenty-five and fifty cents will be charged for admission, and possibly forms the "dessert course" of the convention.

On Saturday afternoon and evening the program will be in charge of four men from New York city, the Rev. Paul Vogt, Rev. W. B. Hollingshead, Rev. W. Li. McDowell, Rev. E. M. Richards, who will give addresses.

A great deal of prominence will be given to war work and co-operation of the governmental plans as co-relative to church work in the proceedings of the conference.

The sessions will hold over until Monday of the following week and will take in a diversity of subjects and work, including social sessions for the visitors. Every pulpit in the church city will be filled with men of the conference on Sunday morning •and evening.
