"The conservation of infant life." said Dr. Phillips, "is a problem largely of the home surroundings of the child for which the parents are responsible. There are about 10,000 still-born chil dren reported in Pennsylvania each year. Most, cases of stillbirth are due to disease conditions in the parents (one or both), which, unfortunately, even they may have inherited. The i social diseases must be wiped out in j order to greatly reduce stillbirths. The ; parents' responsibility is very great. In addition to the moral responsibility, the Legislature has made it a legal responsibility to protect your child and mine."

Since conference convened last Wednesday, interest in changes that are probable in the various districts, increased when tne rumor was circu lated that more changes would be made than were expected. This morning the delegates met at 8:30 o'clock and devotions wore con ducted by the Rev. Dr. J. Ellis Bell. At. 11 o'clock the delegates were ten dered reception by the Altoona Min isU-iial Association, with an address for the conference. The Rev. Dr. John D.

MARJORIE'S FUND TO GET A LIFT [Continued i »„ Sl 75,000 people have contributed, repre senting the following States: Cali iornia, Colorado. Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts'. Montana. New Jersey, New York Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, r lorida, Virginia, and West Virginia. Harrlsburg is doing its share, but there is room tor lots more contrlbu tions. The contributions in this city have passed the JIOO mark, with the amount materially boosted by the hearty co-operation of the employes of Kaufman's Underselling Store, who through the collective eftorts of Mrs. Mary Haldeman and Miss Jean Camber amassed $8.40 for the fund, with the sanction and approval of Mr. Kaufman. Nor have the Lucknow Shops of the P. R. R. been idle; a second contribution of over three dol lars came in last week and the Irving College girls, headed by Miss Cass andra Musser, have not let the pcace at-any-price idea permeate their patriotic spirits. They too have done tbeir share. And now, at a great leap, the Tele graph wishes to double or triple the amount already collected, and to this end has made arrangements through the New York Tribune to have the spectacular and dramatic motion-pic ture film, "Defense or Tribute?" ap pear in this city. The Public Service Film Company is making all arrange ments through a special booking agent and the picture will bo produced at th>} Victoria Theater on Wednesday of this week, for one day only. This is the first appearance in Pennsylvania of this preparedness lilm. Exactly one-third of the receipts from the film will go to the Marjorie Ster lctt. Battleship Fund, while the re mainder will bo divided between the producing company, the local man agement who is providing the house and several additional features on the same bill, and the expenses incident to the production. There will be seven two-hour per formances, starting at 10:45 on Wed nesday morning, and continuing every two hours thereafter with the last show at 10:30 that night. Although this is the first appearance of the film in this State, it is not the last, and the demand for it is great in other sec tions. Consequently it can appear for but one day. Popular prices will prevail, being established in order to reach the pocketbooks of all and to give every individual an op portunity of seeing again just how unprepared we are against war. The title itself is a comprehensive one, but the picture shows even more than the title suggests. It is a worth while production put on in a worth whiie cause, for each man, woman, or child who attends the performance knows that he is making a concrete contribution to the consummation of Marjorie's great idea, whether his Ideas and those shown In the picture coincide or not. The picture appeals in both its spec tacular and dramatic form. Armies In battle array, squadrons of battleships, Zeppelins, bursting bombs furnish the sensational elements Jiat arc so popu lar in motion pictures. But the senti mental, the pacific sides predominate. The opening of the picture Is specially telling:—the shades of Washington, Lincoln, Grant. Lee. Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Daniel Boone, Patrick Henry, William McKlnley assemble and pre sumably discuss the unprepared con dition of the United States. The spirit of peace having appeared to them, the places of the snades are taken by the chairman and council of the American Branch of the Cosmo Peace Society. The chairman acts, virtually, as the interlocutor of the productions. He quotes President Wilson on unprepared ness. A Bible, with a linger pointing to a verse from the prophet Ezekiel, is photographed. "As chairman of the board," says the chairman, "I have called you to discuss the momentous qestion supreme at this time." He goes on to point out how the unprepared Jews of old paid tribute in bondage by reason of their unpreparedness. With this exordium the picture starts.
