Jesse Lasky, the well-known pro

At the his latest offering, a pre-

furnish delightful entertainment with
their generous supply of good comedy,
and a program of song numbers that
are catchy and tuneful. Appearing
on the same bill Is a novelty sketch
entitled "Twice a Week," presented
by Julie Ring and a company of
clover artists. Miss Ring is a sister
of Blanche Ring, the celebrated stage
favorite, and has followed her sister's
footsteps to a Kieat. measure even into
vaudeville. The Tanean Brothers pre
sent a lively instrumental musical of
fering; Buzzell and Parker do a com

Petrova, the celebrated Polish actress,
at the Colonial . Theater to-day.
Petrova is superb as Blanca Sylva, the
beautiful Corslcan lacemaker, who
risks her heart's desire to avenge her
sister's honor. The story of the play
circles around Blanca, a beautiful
lacemaker, who shows a talent for
sculpture. A great artist makes her
his protege. While she is away in
Paris winning success, her little sis
ter, Rosa, meets with disaster. Blanca
swears vengeance. Meeting a. secret
service agent, she enlists his aid in
finding the man who caused her sis
ter's death. The trail leads straight
to the man she loves. The picture
ends with a genuine surprise—and

her womanhood. The many charms
and quaint situations of "Rebecca of
Sunnybrook Farm" are brought out
in the Artcraft picture as only Mary
Pickford can. This production will
be shown again to-day also to-mor
row.
As a little girl of a New England
village, she goes to live with two old
maiden aunts. How she fights with
the Smellle children, sells soap to get
a lamp for Mrs. Simpson, gives a
circus in a barn and how she meets
Adam Ladd and how after flraduat
ing from school, they are again
brought together is all brought out in
typical Pickford style.

company with his brothers, who are

looking for a suitable site for such a
purpose, and several buildings in

ficulty is that of securing adjacent
trackage for his twenty-five sixty-foot
cars. In conversation with Mr. Shees
ley, he stated railroad conditions in
the country were almost unbearable,
and with the added task of providing
transportation for the troops who are
going South, it would be nigh impos
sible to go far into the southland as
heretofore.

wholesome play, especially adapted
for children with a real child's ap

A Mother Wants Her Let
ter Published
Eaton, 111.—"I wish you would
publish this letter for the benefit of
young girls. My daughter suffered
greatly from female trouble with
cramps, and headache, and backache
most of the time. She never felt like
working and it seemed as though s=*ie
was sick all the time. I decided to
try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound and it has helped her in
every way. In fact it. has really cured
her, for she no longer has periodic
pains, and no more headaches or
backache, and I want all young girls
who suiter as she did to know about
it." —Mrs. Alma Mills, Eaton, 111.
Another Girl's Experience.
New Castle, Ind. —"From the time
I was eleven years old until I Vas
seventeen I suffered each month so I
had to be in bed. I had headache,
backache and sugh pains I would
cramp double every month. I did
no* know what it was to < e easy a
minute. My health was all run down
and the doctors did not do me any
good. A neighbor told my mother
about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound and I took it, and now I
feel like a new person. I don't suf-
I fer any more and I am regular every
month." —Mrs. Hazel Hamilton, 522

Girls who are troubled as these
young women were, should imme
diately seek restoration to health by

Y. M. C. A. at Camp Hancock
Fast Getting Prepared to
Care For Wants of Men
Under the direction of Camp Edu
cational Secretary George B. Landis,
the educational activities at Camp
Hancock, Augusta, Ga., are rapidly
assuming definite form. At the pres
ent time, the association buildings
are not finished, but the 5,000 men
who have arrived are being served
in a religious and educational way
with the aid of three large tents, lo
cated at strategic places. The admin
istration and storage buildings, with
the garage, are the only ones ready
for service but it is expected that by
the time the remaining 22,000 Penn
sylvania troops arrive, everything
will be ready for a full schedule of
religious, educational and physical
work.
A Georgia battalion has been
guarding the camp, while the Motor
Truck Corps of the Regular Army
and a regiment of Engineers has
been ministered to by the secretaries
and their assistants. Some of the
regulars came direct from the bor
der, where they were familiar with
the association's activities, and the
men sent in request as soon as they
arrived, for the services of the as
sociation. Reading matter and writ
ing materials were supplied at once
and religious services were conduct
ed among the men.
Arrange Social Service
An Army chaplain sent a formal
request to Camp Secretary Tomlin
son for a man to conduct a sing-song
and Prof. A. L. Tebbs, of Dayton,
Ohio, had a great success with the
Initial effort. The new Army songs
were sung and the soldier boys en
joyed the Innovation immensely.
Prof. Tebbs expects to have the 5,000
men in shape to greet the new ar
rivals with their songs and soon the
whole camp will be singing "Over
There."
One of the encouraging features of
the work at Camp Hancock is the
hearty co-operation of the ministers
of Augusta. They have been most
cordial and willing to assist in every
way and it augurs well for the re
ligious activities of the camp under
Dr. M. W. Lampe, student pastor at
the University of Pennsylvania.
On Sunday, the Y. M. C. A. work
ers will occupy the pulpits of Au
gusta to present the needs of the as
sociation, with reference to work in
the Army camps as well as in the
Augusta City Association. The city
association has been over taxed al
ready and a number of important im
provements have been planned,
among them the addition of eighteen
shower baths.
Social affairs have been arranged
for the troops and the sixty-three
students of the University of Penn
sylvania who have been in training
at the Augusta Arsenal for ordnance
department have enjoyed a number
of functions in the homes and
churches.
W. C. Timmons, one of the build
ing secretaries, and Dr. Lampe were
the chief speakers at the Rotary
Club meeting on Tuesday and both
made a deep impression with their
admirable addresses, presenting the
Army work of the association.
Citizens of Augusta are co-operat
ing admirably. On Sunday, scores of
leading citizens will place their cars
at the disposal of the soldiers for a
ride throughout the country. Under
the direction of prominent women,
dances are being given for soldiers
and officers with great success.

"What's your name?" Inquired
Chief Scribe White as a young West
Indian appeared before the court
charged with disregarding an officer's
signal.
The offender never blinked.
"Remoremountchetts," he replied.
"Do that again," begged Mr. White.
"Remoremountchetts," was the
reply.
The chief scribe fixed the victim
with a cold eye.
"Leek here," he said, "that isn't a
name, that's api line. Come across."
"R-e-m-o-r-e, Remore. M-o-u-n-t

"Oh, I see," said White.
Remore was driving nothing more
excitable than old Dobbin, but he
cut up so with Officer Dutton that he
paid a filne of $5. I
The old adage that "talk is cheap" ;
doesn't apply any more, at least not
in all quarters. Notable examples :
are the Bell Telephone Company and '
the Harrisburg police court.
Yesterday afternoon Daniel P. j
Banks, 1116 North Third street, a j
driver for the Fink Brewing Com-'
pany, was before the court, charged 1
with violating a traffic ordinance.
According to Thomas Channel, 313
Hamilton street. Banks refused to
turn from the street oar track and
kept ahead of crew No. 450 from the
subway to Eleventh street. Banks
was also charged with profane lan
guage when asked to turn out.
Banks denied the charge, saying
that it was impossible to get out of
the car's way. Alderman Landis
was not convinced, however, and
imposed a line of $5.
The youth paid his fine and was
about to leave the courtroom when
he called out to Channel: "I'll watch
° x ,r or you fellows, and I'll get you
yet."
Wait a minute," said the magis
trate. "We'll make your fine $15."
Banks paid the extra assessment,
nut hurriedly left without further
conversation.
_ Augustus Donetella, of South
Third street, Steelton, was fined in
police court for impersonating an of
ficer. Officials of the police depart
merit say that frequently persons who
have no connection with the depart
ment of justice pose as officer's, usu
ally in barrooms.
Telia announced to some com
panions that he was an officer and
had come to Harrisburg to serve a
warrant. His remarks wove reported
to a policeman. Telia had a war
rant which had been given him by a
Steelton justice of the peace to be
turned over to an officer in Pottsville.
Telia confessed that he had taken
too many drinks, but protested that
he had no intention of trying to serve
the papers, even had he encountered
the proper person. A fine of $lO
was imposed.
F. R. Laverty, 193 6 Briggs street,
was fined $3 yesterday for disobeying
the traffic instructions of an officer
at Third and Walnut streets.
George Brown. 128 Baum street,
was fined $3 for violation of a traffic
ordinance.
STATE OILING ROAD
Lemoyne, Pa., Sept. 21.—A force
of workmen from the State Highway
Department is placing oil and stone
on the road between this plafle and
Camp Hill. The road has recently
been rebuilt and when the oiling is
finished motorists will have the ad
vantage of a splendid road from here
to Chambersburg. There are a few
bad places in Camp Hill streets, but
borough officials are keeping after re
pair work, pending action on the
paving proposition.

exemption papers he was called by
the district board and did not pass
the physical examination at the lat

Ever Gone
Smoke-Hungry ?
DO you know what it means to find yourself at the end of a good, hard day's
work with nothing to smoke? You women-folk ask your men about that
feeling. You men—remember the last time you were caught without the
"makin's" or a grain of tobacco.
Now think of Uncle Sam's fighters in France, out there in the thick of things
fighting your battles.
You men and women of Harrisburg don't let them go smoke-hungry. They're
fighting a good fight—see to it that they have at least this bit of comfort.
Figure yourself, or someone you love, standing in a trench with death jufct
around the corner most of the time, and then when relief comes, digging into the
tobacco pouch and find it empty.
This sort of thing will never happen if you come across promptly and gener
ously to-day and send in your contribution (anything from a quarter up) to

Arrangements have been made to buy the tobacco at cost, so that your quarter
