employed to win back the warm love
of a husband by his charming, hut

Colonial
The Colonial Theater's New Year's Day attraction will be "The Secret
of the Storm Country," the latest picture made by that ever-pleasing star,
Norma Talmadge.
"'The Secret of the Storm Country' will have a lesson for everyone
whn sees it." declared Xorma Talmadge, in discussing the picture. "In my
opinion it is every motion picture actress' duty to uphold the sanctity of
the home, and inasmuch as the tiftli estate plays such an important part in
moulding present-day public opinion, this photoplay will appeal not only to
one class, but to every rank of society, rich 01 poor, worldly or homelov-
Ing. ,
"It is beiause it has this appeal that I think it the greatest picture I
have ever done. The story depends for its climax on love's sacrifice. And
inasmuch as this is an era of sacriQce, it will teach every woman who
sees it a lesson which will make her want to sacrifice herself for a worthy
cause, either for home or for country.
"True, 'The Secret of the Storm Country' is a melodrama, but the big
gest successes in New Yo 'k this year have been melodramas. The heroine,
Tess, runs the gamut of emotions before the story is completed," continued
Miss Talmadge. "Mother love is glorified, if there is such a thing as glori
fying the noblest emotion of which ihe human heart is capable. The
scenario has heart-interest, love, action and sacrifice, and a more complete
formula for a screen triumph cannot be imagined.
"It raises the great question as to which a mother would sacrifice if
she were compelltd to choose—the welfare of tho man who had made her
his wife, 01* their child. That certainly is a problem which any woman
would watch worked out with interest."

plenty of action throughout the five

Holiday shown at the Regent
Attractions Theater to-morrow,
ut the Urgent Wednesday and
Thursday, "The Judg
ment House." This is presented by J.
Stuart lilackton, the recognized mas
ter of screen-craft from the famous
novel by Sir Gilbert Parker.
- It tells a delightful story of Jas
mine Grenfel, a beautiful and frivol
ous Kngliah girl, who has two suitors,
and who plays fast and loses them
both. Finally she marries one of the
two and enters upon a life of unhap
piness, because of her husband's dis
sipation. A thrilling and mysterious
murder, scenes of the Boer War. and
moments of emotional power that
would be hard to excel are some of
the features.
Fannie Ward, the evdr-popular star
of the stage and screen, will be at the
Regent to-day only in "Her Strange
Wedding." On Friday and Saturday
there will be a double attraction of
vnusual merit. "Nan of Music Moun
tain," the star of which is handsome
Wallace Reid, of Paramount fame,
will be the headline!-.
It is a western story full of thrills
from start to whirlwind finish, but
has many entirely new angles and
contains a love story of the most ro
mantic interest. The Mack-Sennett
comedy, "That Night," will provide
the second part of this twin bill.
William A. RradV, who has been a
noted figure jn theatrical development
for many years, will
Alice Brady present another of
in "The >liii<l his wonderful feature
of nelgium" film plays at the Vic
toria Theater to-day
and to-morrow, entitled "The Maid of
Belgium," In which the winsome star.
Alice Brady, is featured. This picture
is without question one of the most
gripping and absorbing pictures ever
shown anywhere. As tile title indi
cates. the picture has to do with the
story of a Belgian maid a refugee
who is brought to America by a
kindly, wealthy couple. The girl is
half crazed by the terrors she has
gone through. Her memorv is gone
and when it is discovered that she is
about to become a mother she is un
able to remember who the child's
father is. Remarkable developments
come from this situation aind the
story ends with a totally unexpected
climax.

erful and timely picture showing this
popular woman in a different sort of
role than any she has ever had
INCREASE IN
FOOD SUPPLY
NOW PLANNED
| Dauphin County Committee
Also to Take I p Problem
of Distribution
To develope war gardens, replen
ish livestock, increase the egg prod
uct, and to raise bumper crops in
every necessary farm commodity is
the aim of the committee which has
just been appointed by Donald M<-
C'ormick, food administrator for
Dauphin county.
This committee includes: J. Wil
liam Bowman, H. A. Boyer, <J. W.
Olemenson, M. A. Cumbler, F. E.
Downes, Mrs. William Henderson, D.
I- Keister, J. K. Eentz, 1,. E. Mc-
Ginnis, H. D. Heel, 11. U. Nieslev,
Mrs. John W. Roily, F. E. Sham
baugh, Albert ShenU and D. E.
Tracy.
East year's work was more or less
experimental. It is expected that in
the approaching season practical les
sons will be put to use, so that Dau
phin county may make a record for
production. It is likely that the com
mittee will concentrate on potato
raising for one thing. The Pennsyl
vania Department of Agriculture will
be able to give suggestions on this
activity, having made a study of
last year's results. In some parts of
Dauphin county growers got as much
as 324 bushels to the acre, but the
average production was only 82.
Some stable method of treating the
land will be adopted and it will be
the committee's business to acquaint
the unskilled with practical methods.
Labor Scarcity .
The scarcity of labor is the one
thing that threatens to balk the plans
of the food conserving officials. "It
may be necessary to call upon the
schoolboys," observed Mr. McCor
mick, "and after taking a census of
those who are willing to aid the gov
ernment in this patriotic cause, select
a sufficient number to supply the
needs.
"Many more will probably be
needed this year than answered the
call last fall," he said. "Many farm
ers found that some of the men, who
volunteered for this service could
not stand t'.ie work of the farm, so
this committee may employ a selec
tive method in securing available
material to till the gap in farm help
caused by the experienced men going
into military or naval service."
It is altogether probable, he
thought, that it will be necessary to
call upon schoolboys to help if the
effort to raise bumper crops is to be
made.
It is apparent now that, owing to
the big demand, many farmers have
them in the smaller towns through
and if this continues prohibitive
prices will reign. Not only that but
there would be a great diminution in
the available supply for the troops,
if the war lasts several years. Be
side the farmers, persons living in
town, with however small accommo
dations, will be urged to raise chick
ens and eggs. It Is imperative, said
Mr. McCormick, that Dauphin coun
ty makes an increase in the produc
tion of crops, animals and all farm
produce. "I count on the war gar
dens to be of great help. We intend
to make special effort to establish
them in the smaler towns throughout
out the county."
In the matter of markets, which
falls under the work of this com
mittee, there can b<? 110 definite fore
cast at the present' time. In larger
cities, municipal markets are being
established, but there is no need here
as Harrisburg is well supplied
through the preseht markets. How
ever, in special instances where price
agreements can be consummated to
the benefit of the consumer, this
committee will endeavor to establish
the new basis.
