Mrs. Armor in Bellefonte.
A splendid representative audience
filled the Scenic theatve last Wednes-
day evening to listen to an eloquent
address by Mrs. Mary Harris Armor,
of Georgia.
Many automobile parties came from
neighboring towns, and notwithstand-
ing the big Democratic rally in the
court house many mer were attracted
to the theatre to listen to the great-
est woman orator known today.
Mrs. Armor’s rapid and forceful
flow of words has caused her to be
rightly termed the “Georgia Cyclore.”
She held her hecrer’s rapt attention
for nearly two hours. Her subject
was temperance.
She took up the arguments mest
used by the liquor interests against
prohibition and with sound reasoning,
good logic, together with data and
figures showed her audience how
fallacious these arguments are.
For example: Much stress has been
laid upon the revenue derived from
the sale of alcoholic liquors. This
argument of the liquor interests ap-
peals to many persons who forget to
figure out where this revenue comes
from, namely, their own pockets. “1f
a man takes out of one pocket ani
puts it in another 1s he any the
richer?” asked Mrs. Armor. A very
small percentage of the money invest-
ed in liquor gees into the treasury.
The liquor interests and szloon get
the bulk of it; the consumer gets an
empty pocket-book and all the at-
tendant misery with drink—too often
a lost body, mind and soul. When the
revenue argument is put forth by the
liquor interests they neglect to men-
tion the gross expense of maintaining
almshouse, jails and insane asylums,
also of the court in trying criminal
cases—at least seventy per cent. of
which are directly traceable to the
liquor traffic.
She dwelt at length and with sound
good sense on the time-worn argu-
ment of “Personal Liberty,” showing
that the people enjoy civil liberty
under the protection of the law—
where the law is removed there is no
protection and no liberty. The effect
of the saloon is lawbreaking in everv
form. Mrs. Armor ridiculed the ar-
gument advanced by the Republican
candidate for the Legislature in this
district, that hotels must have liquor
licence in order to do business, refer-
ring her hearers to the magnificent”
Chalfonte” and -vell-known “Haddon
Hall” hotels at Atlantic City, strictly
temperance houses, where even the
use of liquor in cooking is debarred,
to say nothing of the flourishing ho-
tels where she had stopped in Califor-
nia and other wet States.
She also spoke of Georgia and the
other eighteen dry States where
thousands of temperance hotels, with
first-class cuisine and service do good
business, in many instances better
than before the States went dry. The
improved financial condition of the
dry States was spoken of, with figures
showing the marvelous increase in the
peoples’ savings after liquor was ban-
ished from their territory.
Mrs. Armor said she believed in
nation-wide, state-wide, county-wide
and = town-wide. She has little
patience with the man who claims to
endorse prohibition but cannot work
for state-wide prohibition because he
believes in nation-wide; or can’t do
anything tc help along county-wide
prohibition because he wants state-
wide. “Hit the serpent wherever he
sticks his head up,” said she, “hit him
every time.” “We all want nation-
wide prohibition, but will work for any
kind of prohibition until we get it.”
She showed that the loss of life
through this world’s war—as appall-
ing as it is—would not compare with
the loss of life and efficiency through
the ravages of rum.
Many phases of the liquor question
were so efficiently handled by Mrs.
Armor that the large audience could
not control its enthusiasm, but fre-
quently broke out in applause. ***
Chester, Pa., will speak in the auditori-
um of the High school on Monday even-
ing, October 30th, at 8 o'clock. Mrs.
Foulke belongs to the Department of
Agriculture and to the Bureau of Farm-
er’s Institutes, and is a recognized au-
thority in her department. She will
speak on “Sanitation of Home Econom-
ics,” a subject with which she is mighti-
ly conversant. She is an interesting and
forceful speaker and should be welcom-
ed by a large audierice. Since the sub-
ject should appeal to everybody, the
Woman's Club urges both men and wom-
en to be present.
GOODHART—BLAUGH.—A quiet wed-!
ding was celebrated in the parlors of the
Franklin street Methodist church, Johns-
town, last Saturday evening, when Ralph
S. Goodhart, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Wil-
liam Goodhart, of Millheim, was united |
in marriage to Miss Della Blough,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. J. Blough,
of Johnstown. The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. Walter E. Burnett, in
the presence of the immediate relatives
of the contracting parties. Mr. and Mrs.
Goodhart are now on a wedding trip and

vember first, Mr. Goodhart being an

Maid to Order.
It is a well known theatrical belief !
that one song can make a play. In
“Maid to Order” the rapid-fire comedy
with musie, which the Castle Produc:
ing Company, (Inc.,) will present at
Garman’s Saturday, October £3th,
matinee and evening, there are at
least a dozen distinctive hints, includ-
ing the various types of musical
{ numbers that are popular at the pres-
ent time. “Mary Ann Montague”,
| “A Little Girl Like Me”, “Oh! Happy
| Day”, "Movie Mag”, “Traveling Uncle
| Tom”, “U. S. Regiment”, “Love's
| Wireless,” “Perooza” and “The Rum-
| ble Bee’s Heart” are a few of the
| songs that are destined to be sung
: and whistled 2ll over the country.
| Rose Botti, who will take the part of
Molly Brooks in the play, began her
stage career only ten years ago.
During her early “teens” she attract-
ed the attention of Henry W. Savage,
who engaged her for “The Prince of
Pilsen”, after hearing her sing at a
recital given by her teacher. Her
voice coupled with an inborn dramatic
ability, won for her immediate ‘recog-
nition from the theatre-going public
and she rose rapidly to a position of
prominence among the best known
prima donnas on the American stage
Her work is such that all music lovers
should hear her.
