MALT SUGAR IS NEW SUBSTITUTE
 FOUND BY U. s,

A real sugar substitute has been found that has the sanction of the U. S. Department of Agriculture and has 8 high food value and delicious flavor, closely approaching cane sugar.
 The product can be made In the same plants with practically the same equipment formerly used in making beer. Malt sugar syrup is a brand new sweet which has arrived on a commercial scale at the psy- chological moment to relieve the sugar shortage says the specialists in the Bureau of Chemistry of the U. s. Department of Agriculture, who have investigated various substitutes for sugar. In addition to being a sweet, malt sugar-syrup has a de- licious flavor, somewhat resem bline 2 that of honey, which adds much to it's palatability and value as a sugar substitute.
 Malt sugar has been known to chemists for long time and it's pro ductton as a commercial scale is only beginning. Two factors have stimu- lated it's production recently The shortage of sugar has developed a market for it and the recent proft- bition law has made available both
 
 needed for its manufa cture.
 Malt sugar is made from the same grains as beer and may be made from corn or potatoes or any plant con- tatning starch. Barley which was used until recently in the manufac- ture of beer, can be used now to pro- duce malt sugar syrup. Up to a cer- tain point the process of making malt sugar syrup is the same as the process for making beer. Evaporat- ing pans is the principal additional equipment required by breweries to become malt sugar syrup factories
 Malt sugar syrup is now being used in the manufa cture of candy. in large bakeries and in soft drink man ufacure. The whole price quoted recently ranges from 1 to cents Der, pound. Many grocers do not handle it yet because there has been little demand for the product on the part of consumers. Grocers can obtain It and give their customers a chance to utilize many products that require sweetening with sugar. It is useful for every purpose for which sugar is used in cooking, baking and even on the table for sweetening grapefruit and cranberries. The new substitute te comes in at the present time as a plnch hitter and specialists assert that they expect the new product will make such a high hitting aver age that it will hereafter have a reg ular place alongside of Mir. Sugar Bowl.

IN
 RUSSIA QUICKLY
 SETTLE STRIKES

London, Oct. 16, (By the Assocfat- ed Press. )-The Communist govern ment at Petrograd has a rather pri- mitive but exceedingly effective me thod of settling strikes within it's confines, Paul Dukes, a British se- cret agent, told the Associated Press. They kill the leader and without any leaders probably no workman in the world is so helpless as the Russian.
 Labor leaders involved in a strike have employed many ingenious me thods to hide their identity. but a large number of them have failed and have been seen no more" MT, Dukes said. When a strike is call ed the Communists Government tries to find the hidden leader In most cases he finally is ferretted out and some morning the strikers awake to find their leader gone. Without their organization they are ineffective and generally go back to work under worse conditions than when they had left"

Game Protection.

There are many more hunters than there used to be, while the supply of game has steadily fallen off. Most sportsmen complain that hunting is not the sport 1t used to be. Many forms of wild life once very proli- fic have disappeared. For others sportsmen have to go long distance from home.
 The killing of game for sale pur- poses has greatly relped to deplete it. In order that high livers and swell hotels and restaurants and club in large cities should have their deli cacies, many species necessary for the ton of crops have been sac rificed.
 All over the country protective as- sociation have been formed to se- cure the enforcement of game laws The people who love hunting for it's own sake will have to give hearty support to this movement. The kill ing of wild game to sell as market delicacy is generally contrary to pub lie interest.

TO PRESENT HAPPINESS.

Tomorrow evening begins a new series of Sunday evening services at Park Street Congregational church, on Barnum avenue. A new combina- lion machine has been installed, nnak- ing it possible to present from time 10 time both still and motion pictures, that these may bring their pleasure and profit to the eye as well as the spoken voice to the ear.
 This Sunday still pictures will be used, which by the aid of the double lantern 1t will be possible to dissolve into one another. The effect thus producing is far more artistic and plea sing than the ordinary way of shifting slides in a single machine.
 j. Hartley Manners play 'Happ1- ness" as starred by Laurette Taylor, will be presented at the service to- morrow night. Happiness" as the author represents it, is not primarily the result of a philosophy, but is even more a contagion- It is catching, like he measles. The author does not set an actor on the stage and have him tell you how to be happy. He turns Inc matter over to Laurette Taylor, uhn ia hanDineSs itself.

JERSEY PASTOR
 RESIGNS AFTER
 SERIOUS CHARGE

New York, Nov. 15.-The Rev. Will liam J. H. Miller, pastor of the Re formed Church of North Hackensack, N. J., yesterday resigned his pastorate after he was prevented from deliver ing a church lecture in the village fire house the preceding night.
 North Hackensack is deeply agftat- ed over the affair, and is condemning g and approving the pastors conduct The situation is a strange one and has not been fully explained to the villagers Rumors concerning the pas tor have been rife in the village for several days, and feeling has been high against him in some quarters.
 Barred From Two Meetings.
 On Tuesday evening Dr. Miller was scheduled to make a speech at a wei come home beefsteaE dinner in honor of local war veterans, but was barred from the meeting because of the ru- mors involving him. On Wednesday night he was to have Iectured on ''The YeIloYstone Park at the fire house, but the audience was surprised q when the lecture he had written was read by Mrs. J. Pell Seabrisl1ie, and he pastor did not appear
 Imme ediateIy after the lecture incl dent Dr Miller is said to have re- quested a hearing by the church consistory on whatever accusation might have been made against him. A hurry call was sent for members of the consistory, who assembled at 10 A. M. The Rev. Albert VonschIie- den of the First Reformed Church was called to preside, and the Rev. E. I. McCulIy of Oradeu was invited to attend
 Dr. Miller demanded to know the basis of the rumors about him, and was informed that he was said to weild a hypnotic influence over some of the boys of the village He was told the fathers of four boys had complained to the church officials The pastor denied the charge.
 The meeting of the consistory last ed until 1 o'clock, yesterday morn ing. Later in the day a statement was issued by J. Pell Seabriskie, who attended the meeting, partly explain ing the situation. He said:
 T can't believe these startling charges against the pastor He was a little more broadminded and liberal in his views than some of the pas tors we have had He became very much attached to the young people in the church and saw no harm in dancing. He often attended the dances in Riverside Hall, but never danced himself.
 He was very popular with the young folks and l think he has been mis- understood He has often declared that he would just as soon have a boy pure in mind and body as have him a member of the church. There are some who insist the pastor had a hypotic influence over some of the boys.
 Pastor Miller said at the hearing that it would take a considerable time to prove his innocence through the medium of the courts and before his people. Realizing that he could not continue in the pulpit in the face of such charges he did a noble thing in resigning and thus sacrificing his position.''
