INDIANA UP IN ARMS; CITIZENS PREPARE TO FIGHT AUTO BANDITS (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., Jan. 17. Home defense Bocietles, "Minute Men" and rural patrols are being organized to combat crime waves of more or less magnitude, which have -washed over various sections of northern Indiana. Automobile bandits, who have

been operating throughout nothern and .Central sections or the state, judging from frequent reports of robberies, may in the future find an armed citizenry ready to meet them. The numerous organizations which have been formed by citizens have brought out from the attics and bureaus hundreds of shotguns, revolvers and other weapons of defense for use in case of an emergency call to guard the village bank safe or the till of the general store against the onslaught of bandits. Result of Culver Battle. The preparations for defense are not confined to the village but also are being carried out in some of the larger cities and towns which ire supposed to have adequate police protection. Much of the agitation for protection is due to the recent battle at Culver

between automobile bandits and citizens. At Warsaw a citizen's posse is ready to get into action upon the sounding of an alarm. Shotguns, rifles and revolvers have been placed in banks and adjoining stores ready for the use of the posse. The arming of bank clerks and other persons in the downtown district has been recommended at Goshen by the police chief. Mayor Hiram O. Miller of Rochester, has organied a vigilance committee of thirty-three members to assist the polise in an emergency. Riot funs have been disposed of at strategic centers. Army Rifles at Huntington. Th Himtlnarton nollce department

has acquired 18 army rifles and a stock of ammunition to use against bandits, and a reserve force to assist the police has been recruited. Monticello business men are preparing by supplying firearms to be kept at the city hall for the use of volunteers. An extra nightwatchman also has been employed. "Home Guards" have been organized at Greenfield by Mayor Ora Myers and equipped with repeating rifles and large calibre revolvers. The mayor says he "guarantees a warm reception" to visiting bandits. The appointment or rural constables to patrol parts of Bartholmew county has been requested, but bo far the county commissioners have declined to make the appointments as they say they have no funds for that purpose. The "Minute Men" have been organized at Flora, in Carroll county, and are ready to repeal "lawless invaders." Other sections of the state also are taking precautions similar to those mentioned.

WASHINGTON

Have you ever felt the corroding effects of time? Do you feel old at thirty-five or thereabouts? Have you lost your youth? If you don't know vou should see Thomas Meighan in

his latest William De Mille Paramount picture, "Conrad in Quest of His Youth" which is now showing at the Washington theatre. This will do more for you than any physician can do. The picture is delightful and not only does the hero again regain the ftate of being he seeks, but no spectator who is becoming old can view the picture without feeling younger. The recipe for youth, as discovered by Conrad is not the fabled elixir, nor does it lie in physical culture, but in love. After vainly endeavoring to relive his past romances. Conrad falls in love and with the realization that he is in love, comes the restoration of his youth. Margaret Loomis is leading woman pnd Kathlyn Williams, Sylvia Ashton, Mabel Van Buren. Maym Kelso, Bertram Johns, Charles Ogle and other popular players appear in the cast. MURRETTE Girls or women, who can nonchalantly toss kitchen tables about with one hand, while bending a lead pipe with the other, are about as rare as the oft quoted hen's teeth, yet Fontaine Fox the famous cartoonist, discovered such a one for the part of "Tho Powerful Katrinka" in his

The fragrance of the romance of "Buddies" and the charm of Its music gripped the heart of New York all last season as a musical comedy production seldom does. From the rise of the first curtain Julie Benoit, the sweet maid of France, has the sympathy of every audience In the trials she endures through the excruciating shyness of "Babe" one of the American "Buddies" billeted in her peasant home. In "Please Learn To Love," one of the lilting melodies which B. C. Hil11am . has woven into the fabric Of

George V. Hobart's fairy story, Julie demands of "Babe" "Why are you so scared of me" but she never finds an answer because the difference of the American "Buddy" is an inherent quality which even his love cannot surmount until ultimately he is forced Into its declaration. Through the love story runs the golden thread of Mr. Hilllam's music, and the humor and pathos which attend the--daily doings of the American Boldiers as they-await their return, afte the armistice to American shores. The entire New . York cast and company will be seen in this city when this smart musical comedy comes to the Murray.

Tahiti Styles Not Like Movies, Says Resident (By Associated Pre PAPEETE, Tahiti, Jan. 17. Indignation is expressed by Tahiti residents because magazines, moving pictures and Sunday supplement pages of the mainland xhave long pictured native

Tahiti women as wearing few clothes.

when, aa a matter of fact, the average native woman's dress is a "Mother j

Hubbard" which begins behind the ears and flares voluminously to the grass tops. "The impression has got abroad that beauty unadorned la one of the chlel features of our landscape," one Tahiti resident said recently. "As a matter of fact we see that sort of thing about as frequently as New Yorkers see a band of Choctaws striding down Broadway in full war paint. "Such shocking pictures as have appeared in mainland prints and movies are merely photographer's tricks. "Missionaries changed the style of native dress long before any of the present generation were born and designed the "Mother Hubbard" for the female of the species here."

"Toonerville Trolley" Fcreen comedies, based on his famed drawings. "The Powerful Katrinka" has given such amazing exhibitions of strength on the back pages of American newspapers, that to transfer her to the screen with anything like her original powers, required the services of a veritable female Hercules, and Mr. Fox is said to have scoured the country before he found in Miss Wilma Wild, a girl who could perform all the regulation strong man stunts. Wilma is a little girl of about six feet two. and constructed proportionately. She finds very little difficulty,

it it said, in picking up, bodily, a section of street car track, or a kitchen range, and it is like eating candy for her to carry a full-sized man up and down stairs under her arm. Mr. Fox confesses that he was somewhat startled when he first beheld the remarkable strength of Miss Wild, and she was quickly engaged for the part. As the "Powerful Katrinka," Wilma has ample opportunity to display her gifts, and from all reports she gives some amazing exhibitions in the new "Toonerville" comedy "The Skip

per s Narrow Escape," which is to be

seen at the Murrette next week. MURRAY
