TUBERCULOSIS DEATHS III INDIANA DECREASE '45 PER CENT, REPORT By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. Oct. . 24. A 45 per cent decrease in the Indiana death rate from tuberculosis In tho past five years was announced today by Secretary Murray Auerbach, of the Indiana Tuberculosis association. There wwe 1,268 fewer deaths In 1921 from the white plague than In 1917. "Anti-tuberculosis work, .featuring simple education for protection against the disease, has had much to do with this decided reduction in the -tuberculosis toll," said Mr. Auerbach. "Eighty-eight counties now have active organizations carrying on perpetnal warfage against the disease. We have held clinics this year in 65 counties, and the modern health crusade in the schools is in progress in 65 counties. Nursing service has been made available in 35 counties, and there are sanitorium provisions in 11 counties. These things, all of them made' possible by the yearly sale of
penny Christmas seals, are due to con
sistent and persistent efforts by volunteer workers. Figures Startling. "The figures are as startling as they are gratifying. In 1917. there were
3,980 deaths in Indiana from tuberculosis, and the decrease has bren steady. The figures are, for 191S,
3.969: for 1919, 3,268; for 1920, 3,151; for 1921, 2,712. The death rate in 1917
was '137.7 per 100,000 population, but
in 1921 it had been brought down to
22.8 per 100,000 population.
"Indiana has reason to be proud of this figure, for it means not only
steady Improvement in conditions, but
a front rank in the nation as regards anti-tuberculosis effort. But even so, there is a great deal to be done. The loss of. 2,712 lives, most of them
needlessly,, means an economic wast- ; age of approximately ten million dol
i lars to the state. It behooves the peo. ; pie of Indiana to continue the pro- ! gram end even enlarge upon it, to
1 cut down, the ravages of the plague.

MURRAY A beautifully produced feature at
traction is being offered patrons of the
Murray theatre in "Don't Doubt Your
Wife," the first of the series which Leah Baird is starred in for Associat
ed Exhibitors.
If they all measure up to the same
standard as this first one, they should prove a boon to the Jaded photoplaygoers. Written by Miss Baird herself.
Don't Doubt Your Wife" deals with a
series of domestic entanglements that
evolve principally from the fact that
the husband is a man of extremely
jealous nature. He unfairly doubts
his wife and orders her from his house. The subsequent happenings , give a
vivid portrayal of the evils of divorce.
and introduce a real and practical so
lution of the problem.
Miss Baird has never been so force
ful, poignant, convincing and beautiful as in "Don't Doubt Your Wife." Her
performance is flawless. S also is the work of Edward Peil as the husband, and Emory Johnson as the rival.
James W. Home's direction is smooth,
finished and artistic. There is a wonderful night storm with effective light
ing. "Don't Doubt Your Wife" remains at the Murray theatre until
Wednesday night.
' MURRETTE Most of the residents of Jamestown. Cal, known in fiction a3 "Jimtown," were employed by Tom Forman, director of "If You Believe It, It's So," when he took Thomas Meighan and a com
pany of Paramount players to that place for location scenes representing
a small town. , A good many night shots were made and to properly illuminate these, in
addition to the arcs, about a dozen
flares, similar to those used on the
battle front during the world war, were burned for every shot. The flares last about two minutes and
make a brilliant light.
When the. first ones were set off, the director found be had more extras
than he needed, for everybody in town turned out to see whether the town
was on fire. As a result the crowds were greatly augmented and the effect was more realistic than could have been hoped for. As a matter of fact, practically every inhabitant of "Jimtown" who was not bedridden, came out to see the fun. The scenes for the most part were taken around the town hall and at the railroad station. Everybody was
most hospitable and helpful and thv
work of the company was rendered extremely pleasant as a result.
Perley Poore Sheehan wrote the story from which Waldemar Young
adapted the picture version. It deals
with the reformation of a crook por
trayed by Mr. Meighan. "If You Believe It, It's So," i3 the feature at the Murrette theatre now. PaulineStark plays opposite the star. VICTORY THEATRE DAYTON
With the Metropolitan scenic produc
tion and the original cast headed by that clever comedienne, Estelle Winwood, "The Rubicon," the internationally famous and discussed French comedy, comes to the Victory theatre.
Dayton, as the attraction for three
nights commencing Thursday evening,
Oct. 26, wtth a special popular price
matinee on Saturday. The companj comes almost direct from Chicago,
where it was the sensation of the year,
to fill in three days of a three weeks
tour, after which it will be presenter in Philadelphia, .where it will remain
for the balance of the season.
Last year during its entire season's
run at the Hudson theatre, T,ew York
the Metropolitan critics declared it to be the most daring, outspoken and brilliantly brazen play ever seen on
the American stage. It deals with tho
sex riddle as applied to married life, but through its delicacy of diction and its strong moral, it can truthfully be
said to be the furthest from the type of bedroom farce, nor does it make
its appeal through scanty apparel

FEED DYE TO TREES
TO MAKE HARD WOOD By FERDINAND C M. JAHN , (United Press Staff Correspondent) BERLIN, Oct 24. Several acres of "dyed" tiT "vaccinated" trees are growing in the vicinity of Hannover, their leaves red and black and other unusual colors, their wood similarly stained. This is the result of the newest achievement of German science, which converts ordinary wood into an imita
tion hard wood by feeding the tree dyes while it grows. The process can be further amplified, so that an actual hardwood mahogany, ebony and so on is developed under hydraulic pressure.
Holders of patents for the new pro
cess say that they will make the German furniture industry independent of
import of costly foreign woods, while, with the hardening process it is ex
pected that a substitute for hardwoods in furniture making and In bobbin manufacture will be achieved at low
nrices. The Overseas Week In Hamburg displayed a number of samples of the vac
cinated wood, the promoters claiming
that these specimens were scarcely to
be distinguished from the genuine
There is a question, however, as to whether or not the color would remain
