WOMEN, PATRONS OF UTILITIES, MUST LEARN BUSINESS DETAILS

fBy Aioclte.l Press) INDIANAPOLIS. July 23 An appal to the womeu of Indiana to inform themselves of the facts with, regard to the public utility business is being made by Charles L. Henry, president, for the Indiana Public Utility Association. Mr. Henry has sent a letter 1o the secretaries of all the women's clubs that are members of the Indiana Federation of Women's Clubs. In this

letter he calls attention to the fact,

lhat women are really the patrons of the gas. electric, water and telephone companies. They determine the amount of service used in the household and in many cases pay the bills, Mr. Henry

points out. Want Better Feeilng. His aoceal asks for a better under

standing of 'the fundamentals of the utility business and the methods by

which it is controlled by the public. On behalf of the association he offers to the women's clubs a series of historical pamphlets that tell the history of the utility business in all its branches. "In the opinion of our association." says Mr. Henry, "one of the most encouraging signs in the business world is the increasing Interest shown by women in the affairs of business and government. We believe that interest promises well for the future." The historical pamphlets regarding the utility business are being distributed to women's clubs and students of business and government from Mr. Henry's office at 220 Hume-Mansur Building, Indianapolis.

sincere when they advise us "for our; own good?" Perhaps there is an ulterior motive in their advice. Perhaps they are speaking more for themselves than for you. It is "The Devil" who advises like that. He is full of counsel that seem3 so wise and right, yet, when we act

upon it, plunges us into misery, misunderstanding and, perhaps, tragedy. George Arliss has interpreted "The Devil" for his initial appearance on the screen. It is an Associated Exhibitors feature, directed by James Young from the story by Edmund

Goulding, and will be shown at the Murrette theatre Sunday. j The cast in support of Mr. Arliss,; one of the stage's leading dramatic actors, includes such well-known screen players as Sylvia Breamer, ; Lucy Cotton. Edmund Lowe and Rol-j and Bottomley. Mrs. Arliss, wife of;

Theater, Saturday. The story deals with the love af

fair of a young American officer who is forced to put the love of his country

before the love of his sweetheart. The

girl, however, the daughter of a wea!

thy Californian, has faith in him and

her reward comes after peace has settled on the little valley in which she lives. The time of the story s in 1817 and one of th most striking features of the picture is the accurate recording of events and battles which took place between the Califcrnians ard the Americans at that time. MURRAY. No screen production that has yet been produced possesses such delight

ful qualities as does "Romance," the

alluring and fascinating love story

from the pen of Edward Sheldon, America's foremost dramatist, in which Miss Doris Keane, who played

the leading role on the stage for six continuous years in New York, Chicago, Boston and London, will play the

chief part, when it is shown at the Murray Theatre during its engagement in this city beginning Monday. This fascinating drama of New York reveals Mr. Sheldon as a playwirght of

rare sentiment and poetic gift as well as a brilliant technician, and is a most gratifying fulfillment of the promise of all of his former wonderful works. As Mme. Cavallini, the fascinating

prima donna heroiDe Miss .Keane, has won for herself many triumphs an. the international stage and is ranked today as America's greatest emotional actress of the present"-day Her impersonation of the difficult role Is one of the most brilliant acting achievements the screen has known.
