RICHMOND PLAN OF AUCTIONING IS BRANDtDAS DAD Professor Stockton , Declares Rentals on Market, Here Are Too High. BLOOMINGTON, Ind.. June 21. Cities planning to establish municipal or public markets this year to fight the high coet of living are advised to proceed v with- more . or less caution in a bulletin issued by the Indiana University Extension Division.. The bulletin, which quotes Prof. F. T. Stockton, gives the following directions and advice: "Cities which contemplate the establishment of a market this season should not set forth on too ambitious a program. A mere outdoor or curb market will suffice at present. Lay out eight or nine foot spaces on a well located street and let the farmers or gardeners back their wagons up to the curbs in such spaces. Allow only the actual growers to sell on the market. - "Peddlers and hucksters aremlddle men and it is the purpose of a market primarily to eliminate their kind so as to cut out their profit. Since the curb market will put a city practically to no -expense, no charge need . be made for space. A city policeman can oversee the market temporarily, if need be, or the city sealer can be used as market master in adition to bis other duties. South Bend Is Lauded "South Bend is the one city in the state which seems to have its public market best organized to serve the interests, both of producers and consumers. It follows the plan Just outlined.

"In the larger towns markets easily

can be held three days a week. In the smaller communities two days a week is advised. Markets cannot be

established very successfully in towns

of less than 10.000 population, but it should be noted that the mere paying of its own way through fees is not the prime purpose of a market nor the chief test of Its value. Provisions of cheaper and fresher foodstuffs is

the prime purpose of the public mar

ket. "The Richmond plan of auctioning off stalls is a bad one. Some of the talis in the central market are sold for as much as $S0 a year. The higher the price of the stalls the more

excuse the dealers have for charging

the public higher prices for the food stuffs sold. The best plan Is to have a low fixed price for stalls, varying perhaps according to location. For curb space ten or fifteen cents a day is enough. Richmond charges 75 cents on Saturday and 60 cents on other market days. These rates are too high and tend to keep away the farmer who has only a small lot of stuff to sell.

"Xo dealer 'should be allowed to

have more than one stall. In Richmond a dealer may have as many as three stalls. It so happens that one man has three stalls and two others have two each. These three men have a corner on the best places in the market. Accordingly it is easy for them to combine to keep prices up to the top notch. A market suffers

when a predominating influence In it is placed in the bands of a few deal

-era. The small grower everywhere should be enecouraged."

On The Screen

MURRETTE House Peters and Myrtle Stedman are co-stars in the Pallas-Paramount picture "As Men Love." which is the featured attraction at the Murrette this week. Keith Gordon, a wealthy architect, and Paul Russell, a noted physician, have been the firmest of friends from boyhood. Diana, Keith's wife, is a society butterfly and thinks herself in love with Paul. Keith's little sister, Marjorje. comes to spend the winter with them, and Paul, who has known her since childhood, falls in love with her. The two are mutually attracted. Diana overhears Paul's proposal to Marjorie her jealousy is still more aroused and she throws herself into Paul's arms declaring her love, and Is discovered by Keith. To save Keith's faith In his. wife. Paul takes the blame upon himself and is ordered from the house. Diana, becoming reckless, leads Marjorie into, fast society and the two are going a merry pace with the social parasites until Paul, in answer to an emergency call from a gambling palace, discovers them and threatens to disclose the truth about the scene to Keith If Diana does not take Marjorie away and behave herself. There is a wave of Infantile paralysis over the city and Paul, by his methods, is able to save a number of cases. Diana's 'little girl is stricken and she is advised to send for Paul. Keith sees Paul as he Is leaving the houe and upbraids him. refusing to have him attempt to save the child's life. Diana then shows the note Paul bad previously written and which has been seen by Marjorie, and the past is obliterated. WASHINGTON Adjectives may have been overworked, and terms of commendation stretched beyond recovery in describing so-called "wonderful motion pictures," but even with that knowledge a common .possession there are times when adjectives are really needed to describe a picture. This applies with especial force to "Enlighten Thy Daughter." the seven-reel Ivan feature production which will have its first showing here at the Washington theatre on Thursday and Friday, and is booked for a run of two days. When the Park Theatre in New York City is jammed for four consecutive weeks, to such an extent that at one time the police reserves had to be called out to keep the crowds in check; when the big daily papers and the trade press unite in a chorus of approval; when societies of various sorts, ministers of every shade of religion belief, physicians In every branch of the profession, to say nothing of thousands upon thousands of mothers and fathers not in professional life, join in approving the theme of the great production and the manner in which it was handled by Ivan Abramaen, the author and di

rector, it would 6eem that adverse"!

DARKEN GRAY HAIR LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY Grandma's7 recipe of Sage Tea and 8utphur darkens so naturally ihat nobody can tell. Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and

life-less, is caused by a lack of sulphur

in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mixture improved by the addition of other

ingredients by asking at any drug

store for a 50-cent bottle of "Wyetb's Sage and Sulphur Compound," which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied, You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening - the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toilet requisite to Impart color and a youthful appear ance to the hair. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention' of disease.

Girl Strikers Wave 1 'Old Glory" , When Picketing Streets of Paris;

America Has Become

Popular

PARIS, June 21. American flags were worn by a great many of the Parisian sewing girls during their recent strike. Asked why they chose, the Star Spangled Banner as the' standard of their revolt, one of them replied: "Why because we demand the 'semaine anglaise'" (the English week with Saturday half holiday.) "Then wouldn't the British flag be more appropriate?" it was asked. "Perhaps, but the 'drapeau etoile' (the stars and stripes) are much more becoming." i That was a real Rue de la. Palx reason, but there was another, entirely unconnected with coquetry; it was the new , meaning the . United States of America have acquired In France. "Uncle From America." To the French common people in general, who travel little and are not very strong on geography, America had long been a country In the vague distance, celebrated for its billionaires and from whence long absent relations returned with fabulous wealth to save the financial situation of their families. The "Uncle from America" became legendary through popular fiction and sentimental drama. George Washington, Lincoln and Wilson are now taking his place in the French mind. France learned much about the United States during the first two years of the war through American motor ambulances and hospitals, American comforts and relief of all kinds sent to soldiers and civilian sufferers, and through American tobacco of which nearly every soldier had a share. She was all ready to pour out her heart to America, which she has done freely since the United States became her ally. No one in France has the advantage of the Parisian sewing girl or "midinetts," as they call her, in either sentiment or patriotism; no strike in the French capital ever had so much sentiment mixed with it; consequently there was nothing more natural than their choice of the colors of their new ally. . Girla Help Sale of Music. Music dealers say that it was the "midlnettes" who helped most to ex

haust the available supply of American national airs in sheet music In the first few days after the United States declared war on Germany. The sewing girls could be seen during their noon hour at certain street crossings and up tranquil courts, gathered around that old familiar institution of Paris, the street music vendor. With a sheet of words without music in hand, they were learning a French translation of the "Star Spangled Banner" to the air played by the music vendor on his violin. None of the Parliamentary, Sorbonne, Academic or official functions, was a greater tribute to the United States of America. Many of them can hum the "Star Spangled Banner." "Columbia" is less known, and "America" utterly neglected because the air Is the same as that of "God Save the King." "Yankee Doodle," on the other hand, is something of a favorite, being familiar to the French people as the air of an old French revolutionary song.
