James George has succeeded in book
ing this play for a three-day run in
this city.
The play is staged by William Fox.
with Miriam Cooper, celebrated film
star, and an exceedingly popular one
with Harrisburg movie patrons, play
ing the leading role. Assisting her
is an all around cast.
Beginning this evening, musical
comedy instead of vaudeville will be
played at the
Monicil Comedy Paxtang Park
nt l'nxtnng Pnrk Theater. The first
attraction to play
the house under the new arrange
ment will be a musical farce comedy
entitled "The Bachelor Dinner." This
is a show that its author. A. Seymour
Brown, has starred in for the past
two seasons with marked success. Mr.
Brown's fame as a song writer rests
on such successes as. "Tou, .ay
Baby," "O. You Beautiful Doll." "Mis
sissippi "When Yau're away,"
Chin Chin," etc. At the performance
of "The Bachelor Dinner" at the park
this evening. Mr. Brown will be seen
in the leading role. He will have the
support of a strong company, with
Nellie De Grasse, who has appeared in
"Tillie's Nightmare." and "His Honor,
the Mayor." in the leading female
role. Pauline Atherton. of "Prince
Chap" fame, plays an opposite com
edy pan to the star, and back of all
will be a real Broadway chorus.
While this type of show will fur
nish th park patrons with a much
more elaborate as well as more ex
pensive entertainment than the vaude
ville shows they are accustomed to
see at the park, the park manage
ment will not advance the admission
price for the present. Matinees will
be given every day exeept to-day.
"Pretty Baby." a musical comedy
employing a company of twenty-five
players, is the fea-
Musleal Comedy ture at the Majestic
at the Mnjentle Theater this week.
"Pretty Baby" needs
no description to the Harrisburg
theatergoing public, for last winter
when this piece played the Majestic
Theater for an entire week more
theatergoers were attracted by it
than any other piece that ever played
a local theater. Just as "The Birth
of a Nation" holds the record at the
Orpheum for attendance in a single
■week, so does "Pretty Baby" hold the
record at the Majestic. It is full of
pep. There are nearly a score of girls
in the show, and they wear dazzling
costumes with frequent change. There
is a carload of scenery on the stage
and the comedians keep you laughing
all the time. The music is one of the
prime features. It is catchy through
out.

THOUSANDS SEE BIG
CONTINGENT START
[Continued from First Page.]
lengthy line of cars comprising the
troop train there were weeping and
laughing good-bys. As was to be ex
peoted with the departure of such a
large quota, there were many tearful
eyes, and even in the quotas of men
themselves, there were those who
were not without tears at the hour of
parting. In contrast, others on the
train laughed and chatted until the
last moment of departure, and one
drafted man was seen to be fast
asleep as the troop train moved
away.
Bear l"p Bravely
Hundreds of families were at the
station en masse, it appeared. There
were numerous scenes of wives,
mothers, sisters and children of the
draftees clinging until the last mo
ment of departure. Every man was
satisfied to go at the call; every wife,
mother and sweetheart bore up
bravely under the ordeal.
Conspicuous in the crowd of rela
tives was Mayor Daniel L. Keister.
whose son departed with the quota.
Even the mayor did not hide the
fact that he had ample use for his
handkerchief as the train drew
away.
City hoard No. 1, sent its full quota
of 67 men. City board No. 2 sent 116
men. The remaining two will be sent
Thursday morning. City board No. 3
sent 63 men. Its quota was 64, and
its sixty-fourth man will be sent
Thursday. The Elizabethville board
will send its men to-morrow after
noon.
First Class Dwindles
Walter J. Fisher was selected to
act as captain of the first city board
draftees until they reach camp.
Charles G. Harman was selected as
captain of city board No. 2 draftees.
The officials of the city boards an
nounced this morning that another
quota approaching: the size of to
days would deplete the class A-l
men. The men in the new draft will
soon be classified for service, thev
say, to replete the thinned ranks, as
the questionnaires will be mailed,
starting to-morrow. Twenty-five per
cent, of the questionnaires will then
be mailed the four successive days.
Classification, it is thought, will take
place in July.
Many Comfort Kits
Given by Red Cross
More than a hundred comfort kits
were given at Red Cross headquar
ters in the basement of the Public
Library to draftees, since Friday.
Miss Dora W. Coe, who is in charge
of the work, was kept exceptionally
busy supplying the needs of the men
who left this morning to fight the
Hun.
More sewers for the making of
hospital garments are urgently need
ed, officials in charge of that depart
ment said this morning. The need is
very great. We are constantly re
reiving requests to speed up in our
work, ;nd orders for more garments.
If the good people of
would realize the need they would
come at once. Our difficulty is to
make them realize this," officials
stated.
HOLDING PERMITS
Two building permits were issued
to-day as follows: Pietro Salvatori.

New Machinery Installed
in Silk Mill Plant
In line with their policy of safety
first, Pelgram & Meyer, operating
the Harrisburg Silk Mills, to-day in
stalled several carloads of electric
equipment in the mill. Several years
ago the firm inaugurated the policy
of equipping the mill electrically and
as fast as possible the obsolete belt
machinery is being replaced by elec
tric equipment. The advantages are
many, officials say. Chief among
these is the fact that the belt is
eliminated and many accidents are
avoided.

PROVES WORKERS' LOYALTY
Atlantic City, N. J., June 24.—"A
great feature of the announcement
that on Indepehdence Day no fewer
than eighty-nine ships would be
launched was the evidence of the
patriotism and capacity of the men
who work in the yards and the man
agers of the yards. There could
have been no better evidence of the
unity and loyalty of the American
workmen than the fact that by their
efforts and through their patriotic
zeal so many ships would be ready
to take the water on July 4," said
Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the
United States Shipping Board.

the corps to approximately 50,000

now before Congress.
