BEN ALEXANDER, CHILD ARTIST-,'IN GRIFFITH'S "HEARTS OF THE WORLD" j Children of the stage and the mo | tion picture are ever a constant won j der to grownups The latest juvenile j wonder to be seen on the screen is I Master Ben Alexander, six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. N. B. Alexander. I of Los Angeles. Cal., who appears us 1 the smallest brother In D. W. Griffith s I "Hearts of the World," at the Or- I pheum for three days, starting Thurs . day, with daily matinees. J This little fellow, so small that he 'appears almost it babe in arms, truly ils a wonderful child actor. While "Hearts of the World" has been a tre- I mendoux triumph for Mr. Griffith and : for the beautiful Lillian Glsll and Dorothy Gish. surely when the final j score is counted, all who have seen i this remarkable production will give I credit to little Ben as being wholly 1 worthy of the Order of Merit and the War Cross for bravery. ' This little Chap accompanied Mr. Griffith and his company to France and to the battlelieds. where, within i actual rang- of the giant guns, he : proved himself us heave as any of his ' o'der associates, acting his beautiful jsenes often during bombardments by PROSPERITY IS SHOWN BY BIG BANK CLEARiNGS All Records Broken For the Amount ol'Money Handled bv Businessmen Total clearings by the Harrisburg I Clearing House Association during j the year 1918 were larger than they | ever were, At, K. Thomas, president I of the association, announced to-day. i More than three times the amount I cleared during tho first year of the! association, 1906, was cleared during tlie year, the exact figures being; $153.674,709.16. These enormous figures give evi- | deuce that Harrisburg boomed dur- j ing the year as she never did before, j The clearings during the year were j almost $117,000,000 more titan during 1918. While a big percentage of this j was due to increased business in and j about the city, some of it was due to | tlie fact that the association clear d j also for more hanks than ever. During the year a total of thirty- ( nine banks were cleared for, nine- 1 teen of them being located here and | in Steelton snd twenty more in sub- j urban and other nearby towns. The j ilearanOes during December, 1918.; totaled >12,907,281.16, as compared : with $1 1,299,368.86 in December, 1917.! BURLESON RAISES KEYMEN'S WAGES [Continued i'rbm Fifst I'ago.] dor provides that no salaries' shall 1 lie advanced to more than S2OO n ! month and that the increase shall not apply in cases or o any extent where it would result in an in crease of more than $35 a month since January 1 last. In giving a maximum and mini- j mum wage scale for traffic depart- ! ment forces, ranging from S2OO to SIOO maximum and from S9O to SSO j minimum, the order says: I "No increase in the traffic de partment forces to increase any in-' dividual salary classified beyond the| limit set out as a maximum month- 1 I ly rating: and additional amounts ■ j will be added to individual salary j | rates where the percentage increase] | does not raise the salary to the mini mum monthly rating specified for i tho particular classification." CleiW Top Figure *IOO | I'nder the maximum rating assist i ant chief operators are to receive! not more than S2OO a month, the scale dropping to SIOO, the monthly top wage for clerks. Tho increases tlpe Postiuustcr Gen eral said, were made after investi gation of a petition filed by em ployes of one of the telegraph com panies through Its officers, -who rec ommended that certain advances be made. Duplication to Do "The department," Ihe announce ment added, "feels that the tele graph employes are entitled to an increase but revenue conditions at this time would not Justify these ln creuseß unless by a careful plan of eliminating waste incident to v dup lication, und by effecting other eco nomies vlilch will not impair tho efficiency of the sorvlce, the revenue conditions can be made to meet such Increases." Employes at "nonfunctional" of fices are to be paid at their regulur sa'lury rating for hours worked in excess of eight up to u maximum of ten hours a day. For extra service in excess of ten hours a duy they will be paid time und a half] Em ployes working Sundays will he paid 'at the regular rates, or granted com l pensntory time in the week iollow- I ing, the Germans. In one scene especially, this tiny youngster risked his precious life to help in securing a very vital situation In the story. In this scene, by a fortunate circumstance, little Ben was unharmed when buried under an avalanche of plaster and laths. \\ ben audiences look upon this scene anil see the liny actor buried under the wreckage, there is a catch at the heart strings, for to many it appears as though he were caught in the awful holocaust. When the dirt is dug away and his little- form moves the audi ence sighs with relief on seeing h"fi blink tlfrough the dust arfd filth. And when he looks up and smiles, showing that he is unhurt, there is a general feeling of gratification. All this and more is la-ought out so remarkably by little Ben thai it Is difficult to believe lie is of such tender years. His emotional acting Is equally unusual, and he never fails to bring tears to the eyes of his audi ence when, with his own little cheeks wet with the tears of sorrow, be bids farewell to his big brother who is going forth to fight for France and for liberty. Little Ben will merit watching. ]||AMUSE|§jfMENTS|p MAJESTIC High Class Vaudeville "The Cor n ' Store," lively variety offering; t -'s Animal (".reus; May llaynes and .

"I'ar | lor, Bedroom anil Bath" enjoyed the ! rare distinction of having scored not able triumphs in both Chicago and | New York on the occasion of its first j presentation. It enjoyed a run of four : months in Chicago and of seven I months in New A ork Immediately fol lowing tlie Chicago engagement and j played to capacity audiences in both ] cities. The play is described as a fresh, tlippuni. farcical frolic in three acts by C. W. Bell and Mark Swan. I Mr. Woods makes it a practice not ! to disclose the plot of his productions j in advance, thus avoiding unticipat !ed climaxes, but it may be said that , the story of "Parlor. Bedroom and ; Bath" has to do with the amatol-} • x ! periences of a meek and modest > quug i husband who is compelled to live up ito his reputation as a Don Juan in l order to retain his wife's affections. His strategy in this direction results jin his finding himself iu a wayside ' inn surrounded by n bounteous but embarrassing display of feminine ! pulchritude. The situations are dis i astrous to his dignity, hut provide an I evening of fresli and abundant fun. : Mr. Woods has staged the piece in his j usual lavish manner and lias as ! semlded an unusually capable cast. Through special arrangements, David Wark Griffith's tremendous * spectacle, "Hearts of the Griffith "World," with u special ■Spectacle symphony orchestra, has been secured for a limited engagement here, and will be seen at the Orpheum for three days, starting Thursday, with daily matinees. "Hearts of the World" is the big Griffith production on which this master genius spent more than eigh teen months, ami luring the inakin - of which he wgs in th<> battlefields of France working he auspices and with the heart\ operation of David Lloyd George. Minister of England, and other I' and French war officials. 'This. ' r, does"*' Indicate that "Hearts -l.r- W< Is a war play, for Mr. Gii'l'tith ha. been exceptionally anxious to have it known that this latest effort is a simple love story with the world-war serving as the background. He de scribes it as "the story of a village; an old-fashioned play with a new fashioned theme." The unfolding of Ihe romance takes place In a French village prior to and during the Ger man occupation, und all the experi ences of the French throughout those li ving limes are graphically depleted us only Griffith run do it. Those who have seen his former triumph. The Birth "f u Nation," will realize , ml what this means, for Griffith Is a pro ducer who masterfully stops ut noth ing to accomplish his ends. Some idea of the magnitude of "Hearts of the World" may he gained from the fact that more than 1,000.000 fighting men figure in the story, as do 20,000 horses, squadron? of air planes, lloats of /''ppellns, hundreds of lumbering tanks in action and miles of at tillery.
