It Pays to Read the Telegraph
It Is Worth While to Go to
the Victoria Theater
The Telegraph leads all others in up-to-date journalism, liberality and
results. The Victoria Theater, the largest moving picture theater in the
State, seats 2,200 people. It is most complete in all its appointments, its
beauty unsurpassed; it is the home of the $25,000 Hope-Jones unit pipe
organ orchestra, equal to a band of fifty musicians, and played by the
well-known organists, Profs. Mcßride and Mcintosh. These pictures, which
are furnished by the Stanley Service of Philadelphia, are unequaled in Amer
ica. To prove both the contentions above, the Telegraph and Manager
James George, of the Victoria Theater, have arranged a treat to the citi
zens of Harrisburg that is most expensive and unparalleled in the history
of journalism or amusement kings. All readers of the Telegraph, begin
ning next Monday by simply cutting out a coupon which will appear
Saturday and daily all next week, will be admitted free to the theater; abso
lutely free, without parting with any money whatever, as a guest of the
Telegraph. Full details will appear to-morrow. The greatest program ever
shown in Harrisburg will be offered, same to be announced to-morrow.
Come and be our guest.
THURSDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JANUARY 13, 1016. "
BIG WEEK AT
REGENT THEATER
Local Paramount House lo
Celebrate First Birthday An
niversary Next Week
The Regent Theater is going to
celebrate Its first birthday anniversary
during the week of January IT. Peter
Magaro, owner and manager of this
motion picture house which has the j
exclusive contract to display the cele- i
brated Paramount pictures in Harris- j
burg, announced to-day that he has!
made arrangements for performances j
of special merit during the whole of |
the week beginning next Monday, and j
that in addition every patron who
visits the theater during that time
will receive an appropriate souvenir
of the occasion.
Mr. Maga.ro in discussing the suc
cess of the Regent since it was es
tablished just twelve months ago ex
pressed great apreclation of the way
| the public has supported the enter
! prise. He said that the liberality
with which the motion picture en
thusiasts of Harrisburg have patron
ized this theater has convinced him
that It is the part of wisdom for the
management to continue the policy
that has been maintained in the past
year and that as a result it has been
determined to adhere to it strictly in
the year that is to. come.
"While It has been my aim," said
Mr. Magaro, "to make the Regent a
theater to which parents can send
their children with a sense of perfect
security; where ladies can be assured
of the comforts and polite attention
that are to be expected in refined sur
roundings, and where courteous
treatment from attendants is pro
vided for all, I believe much of the
immediate success that came to the
Regent when It was first opened a
year ago can be attributed directly to
the high class films that are thrown
on the screen.
"The people of Harrisburg have
come to know that winsome Mary
Pickford: Marguerite Clark, with all
her girlish charm, and the rare
artistry of Geraldine Farrar. and the
wonderful acting of all the other
stars who play exclusively for the
Paramount film service, are to be
seen only in the Regent.
"Judging from the most liberal
patronage that has been enjoyed by
| the Regent In the first year of Its
j existence, the management feels
satisfied that it can best serve the
j wishes of Its host of friends by con
tinuing to provide during 1916 the
I same sort of high class entertainment
| that has thus far met with such
hearty popular approval."
Formal announcements of Anniver
sary Week will shortly be sent out
by Manager Magaro, telling of the
J plan of the management to give a free
| souvenir to every visitor (Turing that
j week.

When Miss Yvonne Chappelle, the

i reached for a telegraph blank. Here

I porter had faithfully set down as de
scriptive of lior charm: "She typifies

of old Love shook the dew drops from
his glancing hair. Young eyes flowed,

I.OCAI, THEATERS
"The Lilac Domino," which will be <
I presented at the Orpheum on next Mon- i
I day evening. January 17, by Andreas
] Dtppel, has the reputation of being on
a par with "The Chocolate Soldier," that
| famous popular production of some I
1 years back. It is termed "a three-act 1 '
| musical success of beauty, fun. and i
: fashion," and from advance notices and
| press reviews in other cities where it i
. has appeared, it must justly deserve
I the title. It has one of the largest
companies that ever appeared In this 1
j city. 1

and that they appeared with great suc
cess at Sir Henry Irving's Lyceum
Theater in and that they also
,appeared an musical courses with such
•artists as Schumann Heinle, David Bisp-
ham, Clarence Eddy and leading sym- j
phony orchestras.
Tfte new bill to be shown at the Ma- •
jestic to-<lay also serves to bring: back j
Brown, Harris and Brown, a clever i
singing and comedy trio, who were j
popular at the Orpheuni. The only
strong reminder of this trio Is the fact
that the comedian possesses the most
wonderful tongue In vaudeville. Other
features of the Majestic's new bill in

who will present a comedy playlet, "The
Eate Van Camp;" Sylvester and Vance, j
young couple, in songs and comedy, and j
Gorman and Newell, bar comedians.

Patrons of the Regent last evening
were particularly enthusiastic over
the succession of Animated Cartoons
that were thrown on the screen one
after another. This popular feature
seems to appeal to movie-lovers even
more, oftentimes, than the big head

To-morrow this theater will feature

UNCI.K SAM'S BIG WHEAT FARM :
The total acreage of wheat this year.
is G0,000,000 acres. This is equivalent'
to the total acreage of the following
states: Maine, New Hampshire, Ver
mont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island,'
Connecticut, Xew York and Pennsji-|
vania.
On this great wheat farm it is esti
mated that 150,000 men have been em- i
ployed this season, who have received i
at the least calculation $1,800,000 for!
each week's service in the fields. At this j
writing wheat is quoted in the Chicago j
market at $1.05 per bushel, but to call I
It. $1 will make it easier figuring. That
would give tts for the 1915 crop a value
of $'J 50,000,000. —Thk Christian Hkb-

FLOWERING VIRTUES
Our righteousness must be of the
flowering sort, It must express itself in
goodness. Righteousness which does
not effloresce in goodness is a very
bleak antj dingy thing. "Scarcely for
a righteous man will one die!" Mr.
Casaubon, in "Middlemarch," was a
scrupulously righteous man, but no
fragrant and exquisite goodness was to
Ibe found upon his tree. It had all the
I gloominess of the dark and sullen yew.
j Little children would shrink from
| such a shade. There were no flowers
Ito gather. Strength but uot beauty
jwas in his sanctuary.
Our truth must, be of the flowering
sort, and it must bloom in the minis
tries of love. "Speaking this truth in
love." Truth can be exhibited in such
a way as to do the work of untruth.
That is to say, true matter can be nulli
fied by an untrue manner. Even the
truth of the Gospel can be made un
attractive by the spirit in which it is
proclaimed. Said a friend to me after
a certain service, "Did you ever hear
the love of Christ preached so bit
terly?" The truth was maimed by its
witness.— Rev. ./. H. Jowett, in THE
CHRISTIAN HERALD.
NAMES AND THINGS IN THE
ORIENT
Converts from Islam almost invar
iably desire a change of name at bap
tism and are not discouraged in this
wish. When certificates of baptism
are given, it is customary to mention
the old name as well as the new one
given. Muhammad is often changed to
Abd-el-Masih, "the servant of Christ."
In our mission schools and hospitals
great care is taken of the food in order
not to hurt the conscience of either
Moslem or Jew, We make no use of
lard in any form of food. At Tiberias,
on the Sea of Galilee, the Scotch Hos
pital keeps two kitchens, and two sets
of waiters, food and dishes, in order
to avoid ceremonial defilement of the
patients. Correspondence of THE
CHRISTIAN HERALD.

For thirty-three years I have watched
American and other Bailors in foreign
ports aud have had occasion to mourn
over the painful spectacle of drunken
Christians reeling through Moslem
streets. It is a pleasant task to mark
the change for the better, during re
cent years, among sailors of all nation

can now point to our American navy
as having the cleanest, manliest, best
behaved sailors that ejiter our port.—
