GRIME DECREASE IS PROHIBITION RESULT

NOTED IN INDIANA (By Associated Press) MILWAUKEE. June 29.-Evider.ee ha3 been found which seems to indicate that prohibition, even with the difficulty of perfect enforcement, seems to have a decided effect upon criminality. Professor J. L. Gillin, ot the University of Wisconsin, told the National Conference of Social Work at its session here this morning. "The study of the situation in Grand Rapids. Mich.," Prof. Gillin stated, "showed that during the first year of prohibition there, there was a reduction of 54 per cent in court cases and of 45 per cent the second year. It i3 a well known fact that the excessive use of alcohol is connected with certain crimes more directly than with others. Crimes of violence are more influenced than crimes of cunning. Less Crime in Gotham. "Dr. Elwood told us that alcoholic psychosis had decreased in the New York State Hospital since prohibition went into effect. The percentage of first admissions decreased from 8.6 per cent to 4 per cent in 1919. "In Indiana, in 1920, the average daily number in the state prison was only 909 as compared with 1,209 in 1917. In the reformatory the number had decreased from 1,276 in 1917 to 70D in 1920; in the Woman's prison from 55 to 45. The number of women misdemeanants in the Correctional department of the Women's prison had decreased from 111 to 37; the misdemeanants at the State Farms had de

creased from 693 to 293. There was a slight decrease in the number in the Boys' school, and a slight increase in the number in the Girls' school for those years. The commitments to the State Farm dropped from 2,322 in 1916 to 993 in 1920; to the Correctional department of the Women's prison from 132 to 91; the number sentenced to jails from 9,896 to 2,192.

The Theatres

MURRETTE Followers of William Farnum and they are legion will find fine entertainment in his latest picture, "His Greatest Sacrifice," which opens at the Murrette Theatre Wednesday. In this siory Mr. Farnum's 6uperb acting ability, wnicn nas oeen a great asset to the screen, stands out more clearly than usual. He has a big dramatic part as the successful writer whose wife leaves him and their child so that she can give all her time to

her own advancement on the operatic stage. "His Greatest Sacrifice" brings up a question quite common in modern times should a wife have a career that interferes with the welfare of her husband, her home and her child? The question is answered in telling fashion in the photoplay. Still, those who. see it may have a different opinion. It makes stirring drama and pulls hard at the heartstrings. MURRAY.

extending from the 'every-man-his-own ;

law" atmosphere of the typical mining camp of frontier days in the west to the confined atmosphere of European nobility. In it there are said to be two laughs for every sigh and two thrills for every laugh. "Colorado Pluck" is the story of a successful western miner who visits New York's famous Gay White Way, and eventually ' goes to England and marries a daughter of nobility and therein his worries begin.

Earl Says Most of the skin trouble is due to the zinc and mercury in face powders. Garden Court Face Powder does not contain any of these harmful i ngredients and is so fine, smooth and cunningly prepared that it will stick where ordinary powders vanish; so charmingly prepared that every refined woman will love it instantly. It takes off the shine. Unlike any powder you have ever used, Gardtli Court Face Powder will not be streaked by perspiration and will hold up on the hotest days. It makes the skin feel cool and refreshing at all times. One trial will convince you. Come in and let us demonstrate, or call 1904 and we will send it to your home.
