Authority is Bible. "The idea has been advanced that Thrift Day for 1918 be utilized in the patriotic distribution of war savings
certificates and thrift stamps. As February 3 this year falls on Sunday, I recommend that on this day in the Sunday . schools and churches there be expounded the religion of thrift,
abundant authority for such teaching
being found in the Holy Scriptures. "I suggest, further, that the economic observances be made Monday, February 4, and the subject be taken up in the schools. Children and adults should make Monday a day for buying thrift stamps and war saving certificates. BankerB, merchants and employers of labor should devote special effort to awaken interest In and fufnish opportunity for the purchasing of thrift stamps. Now, therefore, I, James P. Goodrich Governor of the state of Indiana, do hereby proclaim and set apart Sunday, February 3, as official Thrift Day, to promote the federal saving plan and encourage thrift among the people of this state, and do recommend that there be an economic observance of the day on Monday, February 4."

On The Screen
MURRETTE John Corbin is not the murderer of his wife. His confession is the sheer vagary of a mind broken by the terrible tragedy in his household. The murderers are two West Indian hallboys of the apartments in which he
lived. They are now locked up and
Chief Benton is confident of the lawyer's acquittal. Corbin can thank his good friend.
Dr. Hyde, for the establishment of his
Innocence, For it was the doctor's intimate knowledge of the scene of the murder that led to the discovery of clnes to the murderers and the establishment of the motive which was robbery. Dr. Hyde informed the detectives that certain Jewelry was missing from Mrs. Corbin's jewel case. Finger prints were found on a paper knife, dresser drawer, jewel case, and other things. The prints were photographed, but examination disclosed no similarity between the doctor's finger prints and those discovered. The detectives rounded up everyone in the apartment house and learned two of the hallboys. West Indians, had disappeared. Their capture was effected on a steamer bound for St. Rito. How John Corbin, a high-minded lawyer, declares that wealth and Influence could free a man of murder on the grounds of insanity; how he kills his compromised wife the very night of the declaration, confesses, and is released, forms one of the most gripping and powerful themes of the decade. The name of this picture is "Evidence," and It will leave a deep and significant mark in the minds of millions. "Evidence" will be shown at the Murrette theatre tonight. WASHINGTON. Into the north, among the gold seek
ers comes a father and a daughter (Jewel Carmen). The father had left his wife and son destitute. In this rough company the girl meets and turns aside many temptations. Years later come a youth and a minister. Both are attracted by this girl who has grown beautiful. One day the youth gets a letter. He must return home. His mother Is ill and needs him and money for an operation to save her life. The lad shows the letter to the girl who discovers that the youth is her brother. Waiving aside every thought of self and without telling the aid who she is, she goes to the town dance hall and to get the money for her mother offers herself in marriage to the highest bidder. A vile old miner tries to bid her in but the minister offers more and gets her. He borrows the money from the dance hall proprietor on condition that if he does not pay it back within a certain time he is to be the willing slave of the proprietor. The minister goes to dig gold. The dance hall proprietor, whose business he has hurt, conspired to put him out of the way, but the girl heroically saves the minister. The dance hall man Is killed In the fight to get the minister and the minister is free of his debt. Of course he marries the girl. Jewel Carmen in "The Kingdom of Love" at the Washington today.

INDIANA BAKERS AND BARNARD TO WORUOGETHER Agreement to Guarantee ,; Frictibnless Wheat Saving Observance.-
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 28. Indiana bakers and Dr. Harry E. Barnard, federal food administrator anticipate an agreement that will guarantee a complete and frictionless enforcement of the regulations of the federal food administration which pertains particularly to the business of baking. An executive committee has been appointed by the Bakers' Association to "iron out" all differences and work intimately with the food administrator. Due to misunderstandings as to the purpose and authority of the food administration, bakers in some sections of the state have been slow to conform to the rules promulgated by Dr. Harry E. Barnard. Through the new committee an arrangement, at once effective and satisfactory is expected by leading bakers and Dr. Barnard. The committee includes the following: Frank MIddleton, Marion, Ind.; W. P. Walsh, Evansville; W. R. Thomas, Auburn, Ind.; H. C. Gove, Elkhart, Ind.; J. F. Rugar, Lafayette; C. W. Miller, Terre Haute; C. P. Ehler, Indianapolis and A. L. Taggart, Indianapolis, Ind. It has agreed to meet as occasion requires, with Dr. Barnard for a solution of any problem that may arise. The suggestion that Dr. Barnard In
struct each county food administrate!
to appoint a baker in his county to act as part of the food administration and to help in the compilation of the lakers has been carried out. H. C.
Cove has been secured to make a de
tailed tabulation of organizations in
bread production. Main Recommendations
Among the main recommendations that have been made to the food administration by the bakers are the
following:
That at the earliest possible date
that does not conflict with orders from
Washington, the observance of a no wheat meal every day and a less wheat day every day be put into effect among the bakers In the manufacture of bread at the rate of 5 per cent added cereal the first week, 10 per cent, the second week, and the rate of 5 per cent, additional each week until 26 per cent, is reached. That on wheatless Wednesday no bread or rolls be sold that day not containing at least 25 per cent, added cereal other than wheat. That on wheatless Wednesday no cakes, crackers or pastry be sold by the retail stores except they contain a substantial amount of added cereals other than wheat That all rye bread contain not less than 50 per cent rye flour and that local county food administrators see that the order is enforced. "These recommendations show that the bakers themselves are willing to make the concessions the food administration asks," said Dr. Barnard. "They are the ones who stand to lose the most. I can think of no excuse that will Justify the failure of the people to go at least as far as the bakers in helping provide the wheat fo much needed for the success of our country at war."

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR United States Public Service Reserve. What It Is. The United States-Public Service Reserve 1b an official national organization of adult males who desire to find their place for effective service to the country in the war emergency and to make it easy for the Government to locate them when It needs help from men of their capacities. It puts the record of their readiness to serve and of their capacities for service on the official Government files, where it is available for all branches of the Government concerned with the war. It carefully indexes them, according to their qualifications, so that they may be located at once when men of their abilities are needed and notifies them promptly when their country needs them to undertake employment in civilian capacity either for the Government or for employers working on Government war contracts. Nothing is necessary except a sincere purpose to respond to the call for public service when it comes, and to go about your business in the meantime. Receipt of notification of an opportunity Imposes no obligation to accept that particular call. The sanction of the Public Service Reserve will stamp the job as one in which the nation needs a man. If you accept such opening you will know that you are serving our country in its peril as truly as is the man who wears a uniform and goes to the front. ENROLLMENT IN ITS RANKS DOES NOT EXCUSE ANYONE FROM THE OBLIGATION TO BEAR ARMS WHEN HIS DAY FOR SUCH SERVICE ARRIVES. , ' Kind of Men Needed. All classes are joining the Reserve; professional men, engineers, artisans, laborers of all kinds. The Reserve welcomes every patriotic citizn who wishes to serve, whatever his qualifications. It is a democratic organization in which all classes meet in a common devotion to our country. Men especially needed are mechanics, artisans, skilled laborers of all kinds, men who can work with tools. There Is great need for such men now. Every available man of this sort must be enrolled promptly or our country's war work will be retarded. Only men who are really ready and able to respond when an opportunity for service comes should enroll. The Reserve does not want to be swamped with records of men who are merely expressing patriotism but who, when it comes down to business are not going to be able to work where they may be needed. MEN OF DRAFT AGE ARE NOT WANTED IF LIKELY TO BE CALLED SOON. Most of the positions offered to Reserve members will be well compensated. Only occasionally does some branch of the Government want unpaid helpers. Applications for membership and any further information regarding the Public Service Reserve may be had by communicating with ', GUYS. ROBIE, " Enrolling Agent for' Wayne County.
