VV y/ RABBI DENOUNCES VICE PROBLEM PLAY Declares Home and Not the Stage Is Place For Discussion of Such Matters Philadelphia, Jan. 12. —Two promi nent Jewish rabbis, in sermons deliv ered at their synagogues yesterday, discussed two vital topics of public interest. Rabbi Isaac Landman, in Temple Keneseth Israel, denounced the wide publicity given to vice prob lems, declaring that persons who would have no knowledge of the sub ject otherwise are being made familiar with it, so that a bad effect upon pub lic morals is produced. Rabbi Henry Berkowitz, at. Rodef Shalom Syna gogue, defended the much-discussed address of Dr. Charles W. Eliot, presi dent-emeritus of Harvard University, in which he expounded his views of modern religion. Rabbi, Landman said the present RUB BACKACHE AWAY HIHJU NE OIL The Moment You Rub Your Sore, i Lam* Back AH Paid Goes OLD TIME ST. JACOBS OIL Get a Small Trial Bottle and Put An End to Lumbago and Backache at Once When your back Is sore and lame or lumbago, sciatica or rheumatism has you stiffened up, don't suffer! Get a small trial bottle of old, honest "St. Jacobs OU" at any drug store, pour a little in your hand and rub it right into your back, and by the time you county fifty, the soreness and lameness is gone. Don't stay crippled! This soothing, penetrating oil needs to be used only once. It takes the aohe and pain right out and ends the misery. It la magical, yet absolutely harmless and doesn't burn or discolor the skin. Nothing else stops lumbago, sciatica and lame back misery so promptly and surely, it never disappoints! ■—Advertisement. MONDAY EVENING, anti-vice agitation was based on a psychological fallacy. He said the abuses of prudery could not be elimi nated by indiscriminate publicity to tho base and foul, but only by frank discussion in the home between par ents and children. "To transfer the underworld to the stage and on moving picture films, labeled 'strong moral lesson' as a| warning to the youth of the land! against immorality, is another psycho logical fallacy. These plays and pic tures invariably conclude their stories with 'a happy ending.' They never carry their audiences to view the in evitable wages that are paid for sin. Boys and girls, who lack the power gained from moral and spiritual train ing in the home, will be more readily led to follow evil inclinations or fall into the net of temptation by exhi bitions such as these. "The agitation of suffragette lead- ' ers. in New York, to continue the I showing of Illms and plays that have j been prohibited by the police, is in line with their idea that the possession of the ballot by the women will cure all our ills. No more than the ballot 1 can vote strength of character into the souls of men, can publicly flaunted loathsomeness inspire morality In the souls of children. Home; Not Stage "The place to teach morality is the home, not the stage. The place to mold character Is In the home, through parental influence, and not in the ballot box, through legislative enactments. If the character of em ployers and merchants were the result more of a mother's creation than of the influences resulting from wide publicity, there would be little need for most of the moral legislation that ts now being waged. I "The agitation for public instruction ! of sex hygiene has a similar and more j vital weakness. It ts a sign of the degeneration of the modern home and of parental Influence. The State edu cates our children, teaches the boys a craft or a trade, - and the girls home economics." Dr. Berkowltz's sermon was a reply to the critics of Dr. Eliot's views. He denied that Dr. Eliot was Irreverent and charged the average minister with being out of touch with the news of the day, knowing nothing of modern politics and his mind a blank on lit erature and art. UEBS-WELKER WEDDING Special to The Telegraph Halifax, Pa., Jan. 12.—Charles Ed ward IlesH, of this place, and Miss Anna M.

Letters to the Editor A GROWL AND A HOWL IX THE NAME OF ART To the Editor of The Telegraph. Did you hear that Harrisburg lias been taken? Xo. I don't mean by storm, but by tho movies. There isn't a town or city in the country that can boast the surfeit of films of Pennsyl vania's Capital City. Good Lord, de liber us from de destroyer! Run all the *\ay up Market street, or down for that matter; and he who runs may read—"Movie! Movie!" Hurdy gurdy music clashes and drones out that the films are on, and they're making shoot-the-chute time. The tourists that come to our city must certainly have a strong opinion of Harrisburg's good taste. Posters, fear fully and wonderfully made, stare bra zenly at you from half a dozen bijous in three minutes' walk along Harris burg's Broadway. Pathe's posters are about the worst. They make you think of the night you ate Welsh rabbit, and piked off to bed and dreams. Xow the übiquitous movie has in vaded our one high class theater, the Majestic—the last place In the town for It. Months agone, we. In an evil hour, went to the Majestic to see the "Prisoner of Zenda" films with the handsome James K. Hackett cavorting before the camera. Oh, Jtmmie, why did you do it? The Majestic—we are judging from :he Hackett firms —is the worst place in town for moving pictures. The "Zenda" firms were all out of focus, and handsome James looked as If he had been dragged through a clothes wringer. His lead ing woman suggested the sea serpent —no fault of hers, just the focusing, you know. We paid forty cents for two seats, and had seen better photo . plays in other houses for a nickel. I Xow listen, Majestic! We all love you | since you've cut out the burlesques, and given us so much that Is worth while. Go just one step farther, and say, "Nevermore!" to any movie that taps at your chamber door. "These "white slave" films! In Phil adelphia. the authorities got on the job, and pulled In or off a few offend ing feet of the well posed "really truly" tales of the "traffic" business Are those the pictures that are at the Majestic? We don't know. So many "reformers" are now filling their poc kets with vice movie proceeds that it's hard to tell which Is which or who's who In the "traffic" pictures. (If you don't take me word tor it about the "pulling" read the Philadelphia notes. In the current Dramatic Mirror). Re form! What crimes against good taste and decency are done in thy name! The vice films have all about town posters of a masculine snake sporting a man's bead and a olgaret. Do you know.the tapeworm picture suggested to me HIOHO very movie vice stories themselves! Last week waa a bIK week at the HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH Majestic. Anticlimax this week! We all went back to "The Old Home stead," and felt young and innocent. Most of us I hope. skipped the "High Hollers." Then came "Dam aged Goods" which tried to give a lot of advice. Everybody rushed out be tween acts to get peppermints—and other things—to take the dark brown taste out of the inouth. First act, a doctor's office and much hygiene; sec ond act, good dramatic work; third act, doctor and medicine again—for all the world, like taking a pill before and after dinner. But the acting was mighty good. Then we went back to our classics, and with the aid of pe tite, dainty Annie Russell, brushed up our Goldsmith. My, my, but 'twas a delight! Then came "Within the Law," the sure-tire hit of the twentieth cen tury. Not the best company of "With in the Law," by any means—not Jane Cowlnor, Margaret Illington nor Helen Ware, but good, with Virginia Mllli man In the lead. This week at the Orphcum, we have the cigarot Fatima adorning the boards. We have not seen her—her picture was quite enough. Not having very much face, she wins her salary by showing her stomach; but face, stom ach and all, she's about as wholesome to look at as the Fatimas you get for fifteen cents a bunch. We're hoping for better things next week. HOWELL AYS. SIX FOR A QUARTER To the Editor of The Telegraph: It's not push buttons in trolley cars or whether the traction company man agement permits its men to smoke or does not instruct them in the first principles of ventilation that interests us daily riders. It's when is the trac- I tton-company going to give six tickets for a quarter. The company, if we may believe the bond prospectuses sent out. is making money, and as it got by its reorganization without hav ing to give the city anything in the way of an agreement like the electric company did, it is up to the company to mhke some concessions to the peo ple. The management could very well afford to put the six-ticket book on sale again and it would make it friends In the time when it will need them. TENTH WARDER.
