11 P. E. DELEGATES SUSTAIN OLD DIVORCE LAW Defeat New Marriage Canon by Permitting 'lnnocents' to Rewed By Associated Press Detroit. Mieh., Oct. IS.—Through action of the laymen of the Protes tant Episcopal Church in the 1916 general convention, sustained by both clerical and lay delegates, the innocent party to a divorce may be rewedded in the church. Amend ment of the canons to prevent re marriage by an Episcopal priest of a person who has a divorced hus band, or wife living was defeated, de spite desperate efforts by many of the clergy and a few of the laity to secure its adoption. Both orders registered a majority against the amendment. Demand of several delegates who favored the amendment that the church unqualifiedly declare against divorce and remarriage, brought a prolonged argument on the ques tion. Judge Joseph Packard, of Balti more, could see no reason why a mjnister should not be permitted to rowed the innocent party to a di- j vorce. Dr. C. E. G. Wriglcy, of Brooklyn, maintained that the lay- | men desired to maintain a dual marriage law. Dr. Randolph H. Mo- Kim, of Washington, D. C., held the old church law to be "the best pre servative we have of the purity of the family." Preston Gibson and Mrs. Beatrice Pratt Wed in Connecticut By Associated Press New York.

SATURDAY EVENING. MORE WORK AND SMALLER FORCE Public Service Commission Adopts Plan to Speed I'p Its Bureau Efficiency Business of the Public Service Commission, which lias been increas ing, is to be handled with fewer people and more system as the result of a series of changes to become ef fective on November 1. Confronted with the necessity of bringing its expenditures, outside of statutory and specific salaries within $215.- 000 for two years instead of $259,- 000, the Commission has adopted the report of a, committee of its mem bers who have made a study of the methods in use and determined upon a series of readjustments and speed ing up of efficiency. The place of marshal, paying $2,000 a year, and filled by William H. Hartman, of Philadelphia, will be vacated and Mr. llartman take the place of J. H. Nugent. Philadel phia, inspector at SI,BOO a year, while William S. Seibert, Pittsburgh, will be transferred front the execu tive offices to the bureau of rates and tariffs as assistant chief, the position of Oliver P. Schoch, Ham burg, being discontinued. H. E. Ehlers, chief of rates and tariffs, will become assistant engineer at an ad vance in salary, Paul E. Fickensher, Philadelphia, assistant chief, being promoted to chief. The positions of J. 11. Smith, Pittsburgh, clerk, who resigned; Thomas J. Alawhinney, Philadelphia, laboratory assistant, and 11. P. liirsli, Pittsburgh, reporter - clerk, being discontinued. The Board of Grounds and Buildings will take over the janitor service, thus saving tlie cost of two persons. Officers of the Commission say j that to tiring the readjustment . within the" funds at hand, positions I had to be consolidated and changed. ! while some advances be given to the technical experts to hold them j in State service in view of outside I competition for men trained in spe j cial lines, it is expected that the ! reorgnization which has been ru | morcd on Capitol Hill for sortie time, ; will add to the efficiency not only jof the bureaus, but of the general ' business of the Commission which | has increased over 100 per cent in | a year. It is probable that Oliver D. , Schoch. of the Public Service Com mission staff, who will retire short ly, will take up work in another branch of the State government. Mr. Schoch, by reason of his long serv ice here, is one of the best posted men on Capitol Hill matters and while no announcement has been I made be will shortly lie assigned to ! a new post. I State Game Commission officials say that if the registration of hunt ers for licenses keeps up al the rate that it lias been going for sonic time j there will be close to 325.000 hunt ers licensed this year and the record lof 311,000 made last year will be I broken. The proximity of the open i ing of the small game bird season ! next Monday has had the effect iof causing a rush for licenses and ' 'here have been requests made by some counties for more licenses. Fay i ette, Philadelphia. Lancaster and Dauphin are counties which have , gone ahead of the license issue at ] this time last year and Berks. York, I Washington. Montgomeiy, Chester and other eastern counties report a I brisk demand. The bear, blackbird, ] snipe, rail, reed bird, raccoon, wood cock and water fowl seasons J are ; now on and Monday wiil see the I opening of the season for quail, i pheasants, grouse and squirrels. The I rabbit season starts with November i t, and wild turkeys tnay be shot the l last two weeks of November, deer I hunting being tlio first fifteen days lof December.

Referring to his advocacy of the acceptance by the United States of a mandate for Constantinople, Armenia and Anatolia, Mr. Morgenthau said: "Our people will expect Great Brit ain to welcome us in the Mediterran ean and Near Bast as a full part ner. I have thought that Great Brit ain best can demonstrate her will ingness by giving us an equal control of the Straits of Gibraltar. I was told by leading English statesmen they would be willing to accept al most any conditions for the United States to assume these mandates. "If we Invested hundreds of mil lions In the Near East and put our fleet in the Mediterranean, we would want to have the absolute right to go there when we like and as we like."

IS.—lt is all right to sit in the wrong chair in the Senate for a short time, but the length or tenantcy should not be such as to infringe upon the laws of hospitality. Senator John Sharp Williams took up quarters at Penrose's desk when the latter was temporarily absent. The Senator from Mississippi Is somewhat deaf and he often moves to the Republican side of the Sen ate to hear speeches of majority members. Senator Williams went to sleep in Senator Penrose's chair and cltim bered on for some time to the em barrassment of the gentleman from Pennsylvania, who wanted his scat. Finally Senator Penrose addressed a note to the Chair, In which he In dicated that it was a matter of personal privilege that he be per mitted to .return to his desk. The word was passed to the Democratic side and Senator Harrison, of Mis sissippi, woke his colleague, who then retired to the cloakroom to complete his nap. Senator Penrose was no doubt prompted by the fact that several visitors in the galleries, after study ing the charts showing the desks of the various senators, to-day were led to the conclusion that the legis lator asleep in his chair was the senior Senator from Pennsylvania, whereas Mr. Penrose was a wide awake exile from his accustomed place In the Senate.

Part of Program For National Thrift Week, to Begin January 17 RULES FOR THRIFT The ten commandments as recommended by Walter W. Head, of Omaha, vice president j of the National Rank section of the American Bankers' Associa tion, the: Make a budget. Keep an intelligent record of expenditures. Have a hank account. Carry life insurance. Mnke a will. Own your own home eventual ly. Pay your bills promptly. Invest in War Saving Stamps and other Government securities. Spend less than you earn. Share with others. Thrift without benevolence Is a doubtful blessing. St. Louis, Oct. 18.—Ten command-' ments for the guidance of a man's I financial life have been drawn up by a National Committee of bankers and others to aid in the great drive of 1920 against the cohorts of high cost of living. This decalogue for the frugal man to stiffen his mora's in a battle to save something from the profiteers and rent raisers is part of the pro gram for the National Thrift Week to begin January 17 next. Plans for rallying the armies cf money savers for the 1920 drive by holding this thrift -week were ap proved by the American Bankers' Association in its recent convention in this city. The idea already had the endorsement of the United Stutes League of Building and Loan Asso ciation. National Federation of Con struction Industries, Retail Credit Men's Association, National Associa tion of Life Insurance Underwriters, National Credit Men's Association, the American Life Convention and other national bodies. Thrift Program The eight days of the National Thrift Week have been named after some points of the financial creed as follows: Saturday, Junuary 17. —"Bank Day" or "National Thrift Day," to emphasize the need for individual thrift and the service a bank renders a community. Sunday. January 18.—"Thrift Sun day." with sermons in all American pulpits 011 the relation of economic life to religious well-being and the need of sharing with others. Monday, January 19.—"National ! Insurance Day," to stress the need of protecting one's family. _ Tuesday, January, 20.—"Own \our Own Home Day." to show why it is desirable and how it is pos sible to own your own home. Wednesday, January. 21.—"Make a Will Day," to urge "men to make wil's. Thursday, Jnnuary 22.—"Thrift in Industry Day," to advocate factory thrift and co-operation between can'tal and labor. Friday. January 23. "Family Budget Day." } Saturday. January 24 "Pav Your Bills Day." Big leaders Interested Supporting this movement in an address to the hankers in their con vention here, Arthur M. East of New York, national director of' the thrift week movement, said: "Finan e'al and industrial leaders are in terested in the increased cost of liv ing because they know that In most cases the bill for the increased cost is handed by the worker to the em ployer Tor liquidation. The bill for the cost resulting from the ineffi ciency of the average man and housewife in the spending of monev and their failure to get full value for money received is also handed to the employer for payment either in increased demands for wages or in increased dissatisfaction and in dustrial unrest. "So, many employers are learn ing that, along with plans for stim ulating the interest of the worker in his job, there must go hand in hand with it an education of em ployes ip fundamental economics and in the use and value of money."

MARRIAGE SUPPERSTITIONS lit is an old belief that marriage should take place when the moon is waxing and waning, if it is to be a lucky match, and in many north country districts a strict inquiry is made as to the state of the moon before the wedding day is fixed, ac coding to a writer in London An swers. In the north too, no wise bride wil ask an odd number of guests to her weding feast for an old superstition has it thot if this be done one of the guests will die befor the year is out. II theHighlnnds It is taken as a terrible unlucky sign if a dog should run between the bridal pair on their wedding day; wlii'e in Derbyshire prispeclive brides still tell the bees of their wedding and decorate the hives for the occasion. In parts of England and Scotland there exists an ancient cutom for which reason is hard to find, by which part of the wedding cake is broken over the head of the bride and the guesis scramble for pieces. Non of these marlage manners, however, compare with the Chinese cutom which causes bacon and sugar to be hung an the sedan chair of a Chinese bride, in order to keep the demons from molesting her on her wedding journey. The Chinese bride to-be, too, has to stand in~a round, shallow basket while she dresses for the wedding, in order to make her a good temper and "amtabde disposi tion.
