14 JIMMY HODGES IS HERE AGAIN Popular Comedian at Majes tic Entire Week in Musi cal Shows Jimmy Hodges played liis way into tho affections of Harrisburgers last night when he and his big company presented "The Flirt" at the Majes tic Theater. Unusual crowds filled the playhouse to see something good in the musical" comedy line, and no one was disappointed. Good scenery, pretty girls and one of the best co medians on the stage, Jimmy him self, made the performance of "The Flirt" an immediate success with people of this city. To be born a flirt, always be a flirt, and die a flirt is the sad afflici tion which Nature placed upon Jimmy Humes, the leading character of the piece. And the manner in ■which Florence Humes, his wife, playfed by Marion Cavannaugh, takes Nature's verdict furnishes a full line, of laughable Incidents which, with Mr. Hodges' own characteristic wit, sends the audience into convulsions. Among the songs, "The Rose That Grows in No Man's Hand" seemed to make the biggest hit Inst night. A feature of this song was the singing of tho verses by one of the company attired as a soldier in one of the "boxes. All the audience soon took up the chorus either by singing or whistling. Besides the acting of Mr. Hodges Ptld Fa""""aor'- fi'Awxrj "t'l as Maizee Mayo, played her part Wei, .id" da..u,i.g . w...rt ••> oit .00 ordinary. The chorus also gave splendid support.

TELLS ON THE KIDNEYS llarrisburg People Have Found Tills: To Be True. The strain of overwork tells on j weakened kidneys. The hurry and j worry of business men, the heavy j lifting and stooping of workmen, thej women's household cares, tend to j wear, weaken and injure the kid neys until they can no longer filter the poison from the blood and the whole body suffers from the waste matter that accumulates. Weak ened kidneys need quick assistance. Doan's Kidney Pills are prepared especially for weakened kidneys; tired, worn-out backs have proven their merit in thousands of such cases. Convincing proof of their worth in a Harrisburg citizen's state ment. \Vm. Wilbert, machinist, 1523 Ver non St., says: "Several years agd I j was in bad shape with my kidneys. 1 3 suppose it was brought on by my work as at that time I was doing much heavy lifting. My back was so; weak 1 could hardly walk and when J sat down for any length of time, J could hardly straighten. Doan's Kidney Pills cured me and 1 have' never been bothered that way j since."

SOLDIERS HOME; GIRLS DISMISSED First Girls Retire on Middle Division Because of Re turned Employes Soldiers are returning in such numbers to the Middle Division serv ice that it has been found necessary to dismiss ten girls who had been employed during the emergency in the Middle Division freight train master's crfliee. Thus far no surplus has been created on the Philadelphia Division by such returning employes and no dismissals of girls have yet been made. The dismissal of the girls on the Middle Division is not to be consid ered at this time as the forerunner of a general suspension of the girls, it is explained, but it will be found necessary from tihie to time to dis miss some girls who were employed during the emergency. But many of these girls will be retained perma nently, it is explained. The general installation of the eight-hour system has created many new positions, some of which will be filled by girls. Officials of the several divisions of the Pennsylvania Railroad explain that positions, just ns good or better, await their returned soldier em ployes. Some girls are now filling these positions. When the men re turn efforts will be made to find other positions for the girls, but where this is impossibe they will have to be dismissed from service. Rail Terminals Are Inadequate, Says Gray, in Report to McAdoo Washington, Jan. 7.—lnadequate i terminals constitute the principal limitation on railroads' traffic ca | pac-ities, said Carl R. Gray, director 1 of the Railroad Administration's d | vision of operation, in his report for [ 1918, made pubic to-day by Director | General McAdoo.

That every man of this vicinity who has been wounded in tho United States service may be better fitted to achieve as high a degree of success in life as possible, offices have been opened in this city to provide means for the furnishing of vocational edu cations to such men. These new of fices are in room 20S of the Calder building and are in charge of C. J. C. Clarke, former commandant of vari ous rehabilitation camps in the United States. It is being conduct ed under the direction of the Fed eral Board of Vocational Education. In their haste to get home after discharge men often leave before the officers obtain their addresses. Thus all trace of such men is sometimes lost. The wounded men will be lo cated, Mr. Clarke explains, but ii, is mainly to reach the other men that the bureau has been opened. The. co-operation 'of Harrisburg's largest clubs and societies is greatly desired by this board. This move ment, which has been started nation ally, is meeting with favor every where. It is probable several field educators will be stationed in Penn sylvania. It will be their duty to get in communication with each and ev ery disabled soldier, whether lie al ready has succeeded in getting a good position or not. Commenting on the purpose of the board, Mr. Clarke said: "What we want to do is to get each and every wounded man who has returned. In case he has spent three years in high school and has an ambition to become a professional man, we will send him to high school for one year and then to college for four years. All the time he is in school and college he will have hi" tuition paid and receivo $65 per month in addition. "For the man who is an illiterate, in case he shows signs of intelli gence, a private tutor will be gotten and the man will be given every op portunity to make good. This will not cost the soldier one penny. He will also be paid $65 a month. "The same thing applies for the soldier who has been injured So seri ously he feels he cannot get a posi tion. For example, if a soldier came back here with both legs shot off and one hand missing, he would be sent to a school where he could learn to operate some kind of a machine which only requires one hand." Mrs. Shepard Speaks on Danger of Polygamy MRS. LULU L. SHEPARD Mrs. Lulu Loveland Shepard, who is speaking in the city under the au spicfes of the National Reform As sociation of Pittsburgh, in its nation wide anti-polygamy campaign, has been speaking to large and enthusi astic audiences. She spoke last night in the Fourth Reformed Church, tho Rev. Homer S. May, pastor. Mrs. Shepard said in part con cerning polygamy: "It is the chief cornerstone of Mormon theology. It is the royal order of the Mormon 'so cial system. It is the chief sanctity in Mormon religious consideration. In Mormon eyeB : —"celestial mar riage" or marriage for this life and through eternity is tho only lawful marriage and the offspring of celes tial marriage the only legitimate off spring. The preended command from God for* celestial marriage is entitled "Revelation on the eternity I of the marriage covenant, includ.ng the plurality of wives." The polyga mous order is the onß' order of mar riage, even a monogamous marriage in tho church must be solemnized at the polygamous altar and the par ticipants must accept the divinity of polygamy." Mrs. Shepard will speak to-night in the Lutheran Church parish house, of Hummelatown, at 7.15. She will speak to-morrow afternoon to wom en only at 3 o'clock in the Grace M. E. Church, State street, Dr. Robert Bagnell pastor.

That there is an urgent need for a police matron in Harrisburg was again shown in court yesterday af ternoon during a hdbeas corpus pro ceeding started in order to have May Holmes released from jail where she is being held for court because she was unable to furnish bail when held on a larceny charge. Counsel for the woman declared that the evidence given at. the hear ing at tho Mayor's office was insuffi cient to hold her and that Gay New man, the other woman arrested in the same case had been implicated, but the witnesseses did not include his client. Cross-examination of witnesses called before the court showed that the Newman woman had not been reached tlie night she was arrested, but was searched later and no money was found on her. She .and May Holmes are charged with taking $lOO from Steve Magaro. The court finally reduced the bail required for the latter to $lOO pend ing action of the grand jury on the bill of indictment.

As the "Colonel," Mr. Harsh is in imitable, his personality is irresitibly joy-compelling, he is one of the high lights of musical comedy players and to liis'eccentric characterization many of the laughs in this successful com edy are due, still and e'en so, he is not happy. Speaking of his "(big) pet peeve," he declares he was not always fut. "Time was," he said, "when I tit in a regulation Army uniform. I fought.in the Spanish-American War then. Now, and ever since 1 left tho Army, I've been fighting avoirdupois.that's why I only tip three hundred and ten." "For tunately," he sighed, "my tendency for comedy began with my stage career, what," he soliloquized, "would have' been my fate had 'Romeo' parts beckoned me on? O, Lord!" Then, philosophizing, he defined —paradoxi- cally—"a fat man and a 'mun who is merely fat.' "The first,' lie said, "is a fat-headed, self-congratulating, obviously complacent person obsessed witli the feeling of achievement, while the other is a living personification of nature's strange workings and with out reason for gloating thereof." Con cluding, he observed with pathos, "and the old saying, 'Nobody loves a fat man,' seems like it must be true." Many are the stories told of which Al. G. Field Is the central figure. In his long career as a Al. G. Field public entertainer he I Minstrels lias toured the snme route year after year, i and has many friends in every city ; visited. I In a certain Southern city a friend invited Mr. Field to visit his home and partake of a family dinner. The invitation was sent Field several days prior to his arrival in the city where he was to dine. Manda, the colored cook, was apprised of the fact. Manda began preparations for the dinner, constantly informing her mistress that she knew Mr. Field, that she had seen him ever so many times. She did not say that she had only s<#n him on tlie stage, under the guise of burnt cork. The day of the dinner was one -of hustle and hustle with Manda. The family, with Mr. Field, arrived rather late. The lady of the house alighted from the automobile, skipped to the kitchen inquiring if dinner was ready. Mada assured her that all was ready. "That's good," chimed in the hostess, "Mr. Field is in a hurry to get to the .theater and dinner must be served at once." I "All right," Manda answerd. "Mr. ! Field can cut right now. I've done , set a table for him in de kitchen." ! The coming of tlie S. H. Dudley "Darktown Frolics," the famous troupe of all-star col js. 11.

That "The Callaux Case" is aptly J called "the sensation of tw6 conti- j nents" is the general verdict At the of the big audiences, which Victoria saw this splendid William Fox photoplay at the Vie- J toria Theater yesterday. The picture will he shown again to-day for the last time, and judging from the im pression it made at the first showings, I it Is certain to attract groat crowds. | Impressive in the extreme is the great courthouse scene, in which Mine. I Callaux is acquitted of murder, fol lowed by the wild demonstrations of the Paris populace. And the murder I scene itself is positively tremendous. I Also a weird, uncanny clement is in- I looted into the play by the workings ■ of the secret order of the Grand Ori- I ent.. All North France Ruins, Says Hoover Washington, 'Jan. 7.—ln an out spoken cablegram recived here, Her bert Hoover, Food Administrator and chairman of the Commission for Relief in Belgium, tells of the wan ton destruction wrought by Overman armies in parts of Northern France which they occupied, and states that the work of rehabilitationo lias been made so difllcult by these outrages that it will he impossible for the commission, as it had hoped, to turn over the task at this time to the French government. "The entire industrial life of the region has been destroyed by the Germans," Mr. Hoover states. "There is scarcely a single factory that can be operated without a very large portion of new equipment. The coal mines are totally destroyed and tlie network of railways in this region has been rendered almost hopeless of reconstruction for many months. "The German method of destruc tion was to bend every single rail by exploding a hand grenade under it, rendering it useless for all time. The Grand Canal du Nord, which con nects this section of France with the Belgium canal system and is the na tural entrepot for goods for Antwerp or Rotterdam, was itself practically the lighting line for months and is so badly destroyed that it will take fully ayear for its complete recon struction." Discussing general conditions, Mr. Hoover states that the relief is based upon the allowance of fpod to the vahfe of about thirty-five cents a day to the destitute, those having any resources or employment being re quired to pay. The whole extent of destitution is not yet known, he as serts, but appears to include fully sixty per cent, of tho people. Car Repairman Struck and Killed at Eiizabethtown Frank L.
