ANTI-VIVISECTION
SOCIETYJS ACTIVE
Members Begin Active Campaign
at Williams Grove to
Abolish Practice
Special to The Telegraph
Mechanlcsburg, Pa., Sept. I.—The
center of attraction at the Grangers'
Picnic at Williams Grove yesterday
was the Antivlvisection Society exhibit
find the interesting booth in charge of
Mrs. Margaret M. Halvey, recording
secretary of the society, and Miss Hen
rietta Ford Ogden drew crowds of en
thusiastic visitors. This marks the
inauguration of ft state-wide campaign
both by speakers and mail, the society
believing if voters understood what
vivisection really is it would be abol
ished. A book for the registration of
voters is the natural outcome of their
experience in Harrisburg at the two
las' sessions of the legislature, when
the representatives, swayed by wishes
of the voters, refused the demand of
the medical profession in Pennsyl
vania for enlarged facilities for vivi
section. A cordial reception was given
Frank Stephens, a well-known Chau
tauqua speaker, the lecturer of the
afternoon, who brought new thoughts
and facts for the lovers of animals.
He said: "Vivisection destroys moral
sense. What we urge against vivi
section Is that it brutalizes the doctor
who practices it. The practice has
grown to the enormous extent of
20.000 animals a year for one disease.
The suffering Involved is not merely
of short duration, hut long drawn out
torture, keeping the animal alive to
investigate." Mr. Stephens claimed
that 177 children of the poor were
Inoculated to determine the difference
between bovine tubercular germs and
human germs; that experiments on
animals leads to experiments on
human beings. "The interests which
are opposed are those of the medical
profession, backed with the unlimited
means of Rockefeller Institute in the

103 YEARS OLD—
AND STILL PREACHING
In the "Interesting People" depart
ment of the September American
Magazine appears an article about

years old and still a "preaching elder"
in the Quaker church. She lives In
Brunswick, Me., and for more than
seventy years has sat on the "facing
seat" in Quaker meeting-houses, exer
cising a quiet Influence for peace and
good will. Following Is an extract
from the article about her:
"As a 'preaching elder' she has la
borode among three generations. From
the families to which she has been a
minister of the Spirit have come men
who have done things; yet it is doubt
ful if any one of them has really done
as much as she has.
"The could hardly be a greater con
trast than that between Aunt Mary's
peaceful sunset and the present Euro
pean cataclasm. It is perfectly con
ceivable that this war with all Its
appalling destruction of human life
may leave the nations deadlocked,
ready to fight again, when their
strength is renewed, and that It may
not really count for so much in the
progress of the race as the quiet lives
of those who hold to the doctrines of
the Society of Friends."

ROGUISH 1.11.1.1 AN WALKER
AT COLONIAL THEATER
The beautiful Lillian Walker, fea
tured in "Hearts and the Highway." a
plcturizatlon of the romantic novel of
that name by the Rev. Cyrus Townsend
Brady. Is at the Colonial to-day and
to-morrow.
The roguish Miss Walker, with her
dimples and charm, turns rogue indeed
in "Hesrts and the Highways." which
is a tale of those rollicking old davs
of the stagecoach and the nimble
sword during the reign of James II of
England. There Is a smashing opening
—and this statement is literal as well
as figurative—the soldiers of th» king
breaking in a door and placing Earl of
Clanranald under arrest for conspir
acy. .Situations of comedy and drama
alternate as when his daughter—Miss
Lillian herself—determines to arrav
herself in man's garb and intercept
the messenger conveying the warrant
of death to the king for his signature.
When she stops the king's messenger,
she brings about her own unmasking;
but that's no misfortune—she capti
vates the handsome young officer and
off they go to Edinburgh to defy the
wicked James. Meantime. King James
plots the capture first of the officer,
then of the girl. The tables are turn
ed. first on one side and then on the
other. In a series of stirring scenes that
would be worthy of Dumas. The final
episode furnishes a satisfying climax
to the red-blood tale. Supporting Mian
Walker are such nhotopiayers of note
as Darwin Karr. Donald Hall. Charles
Kent. Rose Taple.v arid Ned Finlev.
Herman Teager will play concerts on
the big Moller pioeorgan every after
