The Return Trip
Filled with zeal tor the work to
pome in making Harrisburg a better
city, spiritually, morally and munici
pally, the seventy churcnnieu returned
Xi o ml ho Hazieton trip this morning
at 2.20 o'clock. Little sleeping was
iiione on the return trip, as the party
•was too tull of the good things they
iiad iearnedat Hazieton to do anything
but talk over the preliminary cam
paign plans. One of the lirst things
tnat must be taken up is the matter
of finance. At least SI,OOO must be
raised to take care of the preliminary
expense, and before the campaign is
enued lully SIO,OOO will have to be
procured by the executive committee.
Much of this amount will be raised
during the tabernacle meetings.
Several weeks prior to tne formal
opening of the campaign representa
tives oi the Stougft party will come to
Harrisburg to start the evangelistic
ball rolling in this citq. D. L. bpoon
er, musical director, and Miss tiara
Palmer, uireetor ot woman's work,
■will be among the early arrivals oi
the Stough party. F. T. Cirtright,
associate of Mr. Stough, will come to
Harrisburg several times during the
uumrner to see that the preliminary
>vork is going on as it should.
Alas! For the Worldly Resorts
Speaking of the methods to be em
ployed at tho tabernacle meeting In
Harrisburg, Dr. Henry W. Stough saiu
that lie intends malting the meetings
so interesting that the movies, tne 1
vaudeville houses and the barrooms, ,
and the public dance halls will be
practically deserted.
"To get people to hear the preaching ]
of the Gospel," said Dr. Stough, "it is
absolutely necessary that the meetings |
be made more interesting than the:
worldly attractions."
The feature of yesterday's trip was i
the evening tabernacle meeting. It
■was "miners' night'' and lully 3,000
men who work in the Hazieton col-1
lieries attended. Prior to the meet
ing a parade was held on the main
streets of Hazieton. Two local miners'
unions who had the highest percentage
of members at the meting receiveu j
prizes of American flags, nr. Stough I
urged every miner wno has "hit the
sawdust" trail to join some church, i
Many of them promised to do so.
During the tabernacle service the
Harrisburg delegation sang alone and,
In the words ot Dr. Stough, they did
It "ail to the mustard."
ln.sidc Campaign <;iancc
The Harrisburg church people got
an insldo glance at the members of
the Stough party yesterday atternoon
•when a special meeting was held in
the big revival tabernacle, to which
only the Harrisburgers, tho executive
committee and the pastors of co-op
erating Hazieton churches were in
vited.
in detail the Harrisburg people
heard how the campaign in this city is
to be waged, Dr. Stough outlining
both the necessary xjreliininary work
and the work of the actual campaign
In November.
"The campaign will not be primarily
for the church people," smiled Dr.
Stough, "but for the nonchurch
people. Not that a lot of church
members do not need stirring up
down in Harrisburg, from what 1 can
learn. Doubtless there are a lot of
people in the church who ought to be
out of it and a lot out of It who ought
to bo in it, if righteousness is taken
Into consideration."
Expects Many to Be Against Him
"Hundreds of church folk will be
against me," grinned Dr. Stough, "of
that I am sure. Many a long-faced,
eelf-righteous soul will raise his hands
In holy horror at the methods em
ployed In the campaign. 1 will not
preach to suit a lot of these good souls.
I will not talk for the benefit of those
whose delight is in beautiful rhetoric
find literary excellence. 1 am going
to talk so that the 'roughneck' on tho
back seat can understand me. I am
going to plead to the man who comes
lrom the billiard hall and the barroom,
the girl who hails from the public
dance and the brothel. And, of course,
ft lot of heterodox individuals will be
peeved about it.
" 'lsn't Stough awful?' you will hear
many a one say before I have been in
Harrisburg a week. 'Doesn't he use
the most desecrating language in the
pulpit?' they will add. 'Why, he is a
pulpit mountebank!' they will lament.

As to Knockers
"But I will talk for the man and

me despite the knockers. If the lan

Dr. Stough introduced each member
of his party, explaining the depart
ment work each has to do. He showed
that by thi3 departmental work men
of every class are retched—men of
the shops, the factories, the mills, the
saloons; those in the homes, tho
schools, the public institutions and
wherever folk can be reached. He
explained that there will be workers
for men, workers for women, work
ers for boys and girls and workers for
children. The campaign will be city
wide in its scope and its magnitude
cannot be understood, he said, until
once the work is really begun.
To War on Booze
Dr. Stough announced that he
favors some site in the Capitol Park
extension area for the erection of the
tabernacle. The big building will cost
about $3,500 and will seat 10,000.
Speaking of the work to be done
next Fall, he said that the fight on

booze will be the biggest part of the
Harrisburg campaign. Speaking on the
liquor question, Dr. Stough said:
"The liquor people will have the
most perfect organization this Fall
,that they ever have had. As you
doubtless have heard, a taxe of from
5 to 10 cents is being levied on every
barrel of beer brewed to help in the
fight on the anti-liquor people. But
I believe thet liquor people and their
dirty interests are doomed. With Billy
Sunduy in Philadelphia and with tho
Stough party at Harrisburg next Fall
wc will give the rum men at least
something to think about, and that is
certain."
Dr. Stough then explained how he
purposed carrying on his campaign.
The entire city will be districted and
personal workers from each of the
thirty-two co-operating churches will
get into touch with every man, woman
and child in the city from week to
week. The business of tho campaign
will be carried on so systematically
that a personal invitation will be given
each resident of Harrisburg and its
suburbs .before the revival is ended.
Following luncheon supper held in
the Diamond Methodist Episcopal
Church a conference • was held with
the Stough party, wherein the Har
risburgers were given an opportunity
to ask questions concerning knotty
problems which they had in mind.
Before the question meeting was over
every member in the Harrisburg party
was convinced that the business of the
campaign will be conducted along the
lines of modern business methods.

Where They "Hit the Trail"
It was the tabernacle which, per
haps, proved the center of most in
terest to the Harrisburg church
people. The building Is a rough
wooden shed covered with tar paper.
Inside are rows of rough board seats
set on a sawdust floor. Here can be
| seen the origin of the phrase "hitting
the sawdust trail."
The tabernacle is well lighted and
the crowds are perfectly handled, a
special member of tho party having
j charge of the seating and order. In
file rear of the building low-priced
j Bible and New Testaments are sold to
[converts who want to read the Word,

the doors with fully 5,000 people,
IStough's voice could be heard in every
corner of tho vast auditorium. The
ventilation of the tabernacle is per
fect. One of the things that inter
ested the Harrisburg folk were the
collection plates, tin stew kettles be
ing used because they hold a lot when
occasion demands. The building Is
draped with American flags. Dozens
of ushers attend to the wants of the
people in the audience.

The State Board of Picture CensorS
to-day issued a statement in which

which the law is to be operated. It
Is stated that manufacturers are not

submit to censorship and co-operate
with the board. The board has pass
ed upon about 120 films and exam
ined about fifteen or twenty each day
at the temporary projecting rooms
of the board in the city of Philadel
phia where they will be located for
about three weeks, or until their per
manent headquarters have been equip
ped. The Universal and Mutual com
panies, according to the present in
dications, will have no censored films
as they intend to tost tho constitution
ality of the act and will endeavor to
have the court direct a restraining
order. This will, however, not pre
vent the board from passing upon
other films which may be submitted,
and unless such suit is brought by
the companies in the next few days,
any persons violating the act will be
arrested and fined.
"The board desires also to call the
attention of the manufacturers and
producers that a great many of the
old plays are being reproduced on the
screen, and cautions the manufactur
ers that the mere fact that these were
permitted on the stage Is no Indica- 1
tlon that they are necessarily fit. for
the screen as there is a vast differ
ence between the protrayal of char
aiters, parts and the play itself on
the stage and on the screen."
