THE BIG IDEA BACK
 OF THRIFT DAY PLAN
By G. Y. CLEMENT.

The big idea back of a national thriIt day IS to focus the thought of one hundred million people upon prac- ticaI ways and means of not only ad- Justment to the high cost of living but-action.
 1t is to start something We are all creatures of natural tendencies. and these usually result in habits. We establish the habit of spending an average amount of money for certain things and when that source of sup ply is changed or some other factor enters into the supply that causes the cost of production to increase, it Goes not necessarily follow that our wages increase
 With the constantly increased cost Of living, we are confronted with the necessity for an adjustment. Every individuals adjustment is necessarily different
 Thrift day is day 10 reduce waste. thereby increasing efficiency Actually taking a step in the direc- tion of thrift has been described as a combination of mental and physical action-bOth are essential to the ac- complishment
 Putting true thrift action into eff feet on thrift day is not only repre- sented by placing an added deposit to
 that nest egg being built up in the savings account to take care of the future, but can be practiced in a thou sand different ways, depending upon the environment and habits of the in-
 dividual
 hn md f,,1 thrift day by man. woman or child includes starting thrift habit or practice that had been decided upon
 and then put off. or one that has just l been suggested as the result of an | exchange of ideas on this subject. | It may include a greater thrift of | time. A young man or woman comes l to a realization that disproportion- ate amount of time has been expended | in sO-called society or amusement, ev-
 cry evening being given up to com raratively idle association and idle talk. That individual decides upon a
 course of instructive reading or a night school class of one or more eve- i nings each week Having the time | set is important. Starting course Of study on the evening of thrift day
 with this end in view, thereby prac- ticing greater thrift of time, is in eff i feet setting the wheels in motion to-
 ward the goal of topnotch efficiency
 and individual success.
 | One of the greatest objects of the
 proper conception of thrift day is to recognize the true meaning of thrift and that meaning is none other than
 increased efficiency.

HAUBER THEATRE.

Francis X. Eastman and Beverly IBayne, crowned King and Queen of mo- first chapter of the Metro Quality se- tlon pictures, are to be seen in the serial. "The Great Secret" at the Hau. Der theatre, on Tuesday,. Prepara- tions for this serial, which will con- sist of fifteen episodes, have been made on such an elaborate scale that 1t was not thought possible to get it ready until much later, but the stars themselves have do-operated in every way possible with Wm. Christy Cahr anne, the director, and have succeeded in carrying out the wish of Richard A. Rowland, president of Metro Pic lures corporation to give the first episode of this great serial to the pub lie as a Christmas gift.
 It has said that genius consists of an infinite capacity for taking pains. MT. Bushman and Miss Bayne prove that it also consists of an infinite capacity for work. No other motion picture stars have ever undertaken within so short period two such gi- gantic pieces of work as the Metro pie turization of Shakespeare's great love drama, "Romeo and Juliet" and the present magnificent serial.
 One represents the classics of an earlier day, and the other the finest Towering of present day talent Mme. Fred de Gresac is the author of "The Great Secret" Known as a clever playwright, she has fairly outdone her self in this remarkable picture play, each episode of which has distinct in- dividualitv of it's own, as we'll as being a part of a swiftly moving and ab- sorbing whole.
 The production of "The Great Se- cret," the greatest mystery story ever written for the screen. is gigantic undertaking, task quite beyond the powers of people without the tireless energy of MT. Bushman, Miss Bayne and Mir. Cabanne. It grips the in-
 terest from start to finish.

HELP FOR CONSERVATIVES.
Red Cross Commission Suggests Spec
 ial SanatOria for War Prisoners.

Correspondence Associated Press)
 Stockholm, Sweden. Jan. 3.-A spec ial Red Cross committee representing Sweden, Germany, Austria Hungary, Russia and Denmark, which has been meeting here under the chairmanship of M. Lagerhein, former Swedish min ister of foreign affairs, has recom- mended to the governments of Ger many, Austria-Hungary and Russia that special sanatoria be established in these countries for the treatment of consumptive prisoners of war. It is suggested that medical commissions be appointed in each country, each con- mission to be composed of one neutral physician, one military physician, and one Red Cross representative. The commissioners would receive and in- vestigate all complaints from prison CTS, visit prison camps, and see that tuberculous persons were removed to the sanatoria.

MODERN r ARTAGNAN
 SUCCUMBS TO ILLNESS
Rouzier- r-Dorcieres, Who Had Partici- pated in More DuelS Than Any
 Man Contracts Fatal Disease.

(Correspondence Associated Press)
 Paris, Dec. 3O.-The only French man who of late years had kept alive on the boulevards of Paris some of the traditions of the epoch of d'Artagnan and Cyrano de Bergerac. Rouzier Dorcieres, is one of the wars latest victims. "The Last Musketeer," as he was often called had participated n more duels than any man of his time and perhaps he held the worlds rec ord He fought for his own account more than score of times and di- rected as second more than a hundred encounters.
 Like both d'Artagnan and Cyrano de Bergerac. he had the quick blood of the South of France in his veins and was romantic in speech and act. His wide brimmed felt hat, his shining black locks and aggressive bristling moustache and imperial were familiar to every habitue of the boulevard cafes, nearly every one of which had at some time or other resounded with his discourses, controversies or procla- nations He was one of the figures of Paris that were pointed out to visit ing provincials.
 He was not himself a particularly expert man with a sword, but his inn petuousity often made up for lack of skill and overwhelmed his adversary at the outset.
 At the outbreak of the war he en- listed as a machine gunner in the avi- ation corps and contracted in the ser vice the illness from which he died.

| gayest, most charming and artificial Of the girls Of the Follies. To Diane. Phillips Christy falls captive He tells his sister he will lift Diane of the Follies to their Ievel-to the heights.
 Poor Philips Christy realizes that his theory has proved false-his wife, after the most careful training toward the uplift. has sought her level in the chorus and filled his house with ciga- ret-smoking, cocktail-drink;ng women Of the theatre. Resentful at her hus- bands attitude regarding her friencs, and his intolerance of them. Diane de- termines to leave and seek happiness in the freedom Of her early environ ment. She deserts her husband and child and is installed as the star of the Follies. Later, in the midst of her triumph message comes to her from her husband requesting her presence at the sick bed Of their child. Before she arrives little Biiou, the child has passed away
 After the sad rites over the little child are performed Christy. never forgetting his breeding, asks Diane if she desires to remain in his home un der the protection of his name. She answers him truthfully from the depths of her soul:
 q am going back to my own life. to the people who understand me. You and I walk different paths and talk different languages. Our paths need never cross. and we have nothing to say to each other. The one interest that bound us together. our little girl, ir N"oit of hac thing to forgive, nor to remember. wish you success and happiness. Il am going now to seek them for my self"
 The husband and wife separate. and each knows the separation is as final as if the world has ceased being.

BEST THEATRE.

Monday-Alice Brady and the World fine five reel photodrama-An inter- esting study in contrasts is presented
 by the rustic and city experiences of the heroine in this film, role aptly and artistidally portrayed by Miss Brady, whose emotional powers arc given full sway in depicting the joys and sorrows of the young wife. The story will please many motion pie ture patrons through it's sheer sim plicity of plot, and because it deals with ordinary phases of human If }. intermingled with pretty sentiment and pathetic appeal. Edward Lang ford as Tom Blaine. and Arthur Ash ley in the role of the seductive Steph- en Mallery, are both we'll cast ami render capital performances.
 Tueslay-Beautiful Lenore Ulricn
 has splendid role in her latest Morosco-Paramount photoplay "The
 Road to Love-" In fact, this attrac- ton that comes to the Best theatre Tuesday had a very strange origin. Blanche Dougan Cole. the author of the story visited Algeria in her trav- els and chanced to form friendship
 with Hafsa, a beautiful dancing gir! The story the girl told fascinated this
 woman of culture and back in Amer lca this screen story was written
 especially for Lenore Ulrich, the only
 star judged able to portray exactly the real Hafsa. The result is this
 fascinating screen star has a vehicle
 that thrills with the realiyt and the
 strange way of that vastly different land.
