Lowry's magnificent photo spectacle being: shown to-day. to-mor lOW and Friday at the Colonial Thea ter to raise a fund for the Harrisburg Chapter, •Daughters of 1917, National War Aid, is one of the greatest and most timely patriotic motion picture tilms ever produced, according to those who have seen it. At a time when the entire group of civilized nations is engaged in malt ing the world safe for democracy: when virtually every home every where is feeling the pinch of war and millions of lives are being sacrificed on the altar of Mars, the appeal of this drama is universal. It is not n propaganda picture filled with sordid scenes of battle- and barbarism, but the story it tells is one of absorbing interest quite apart from any other appeal. At the same time it is an educational feature of the highest order. It shows the whole possible career of that son of the family who enlists in the service of his country, from the concentration camp to front; it shows the work of the, Red Cross nurse: the life in the trenches, and the other details of the vast war ma chine, presented with all the vivid ness of the motion pictures and the verity of actual happening. Regarded as a feature, it presents on the screen some of the most power ful battle scenes ever recorded. The AMUSEMENTS "THE ORIENTAL" 435 SIAItKET STREET DANCING FROM n,nu to 11.30 P. M.

It is said to be one of the most astounding scenes ever filmed for a motion picture, is "The Freedom of the World." It comes as a climax to soul-stirring- story of love and war, with the great world con flict now rasing- as the background. The young and beauttful wife of an officer of the American Legion of the Canadian Expeditionary forces, violat ing an iron-clad rule of the War Of fice. disguises herself as a nurse and goes to visit her husband at the front. Through the machinations of a cow ardly officer, once a suitor for her hand, her presence and her husband's knowledge of it is exposed. Husband and wife are arrested and ordered be fore a court-martial with the knowl edge that their trial can result in nothing: short of the verdict prescrib ed for every such violation of the regulations—death before a firing souad. Uather than see his bride suf fer such a fate, he shoots her with his service revolver, and she falls at his feet breathing her gratitude with "Thank you, my husband." Motion picture critics who have seen .advance showing of "For the Freedom of the World" are unanimous in proclaiming this one of the most thrilling moments they have ever seen in films. One of the most unique as well as 'the most remarkable photoplay pic tures ever shown "The Warrior." in this city or any !at the Victoria where. is "The Warrior." being shown to"-day for the last time, and in which the central figure is Ma ciste, the world's strongest man. who will also be remembered for his al most superhuman feats in "Cabiria." It is a drama, not a war picture, that is filled with thrills, laughter and tears nnd cheers. Aside from the marvelous feats of strength displayed by Maciste, one sees the Alpine troops scaling the lofty peaks of the Alps, which in itself is highly instructive as well as entertaining. Right now the Italians are doing the identical thing while battling with the Austri ans and Germans in Northern and Western Italian Alps.

The statement made that Christian i Scientists deny "the reality of sin and the judgment of man for sins" contains but half a truth. They do not deny the judgment for sin, which is ever condemned by righteousness, but they do deny sin as being any part of God's creation, and as a real i ity in that sense, and do it success ! fully, for the simple reason that one j cannot serve two masters. It is a i case of either denying sin or deny [ ing God. | We can concede the correctness of one statement, namely, the de j nial of the personality of Satan, and | we believe that the most intelligent j clergymen are with us on this point. | That Christian Scientists deny the "necessity of prayer," the "resurrec- I tion of the dead, ministering of an gels, atonement of Christ, the exist . enee of angels and the (Jootrine of divinity" is so far from the fact as to deserve no special mention, and readers need only peruse the writ ings of Mrs. Eddy on the subject in order to be convinced of the fact.
