METHODISTS TO
EXPAND WORK IN
CITY DISTRICT
Decide to Offer Better Finan
cial Opportunities to the
Foreign-Born
The Methodist Episcopal I nion.
meeting in the Camp Curtin Memo
rial Church last evening, laid its
.plans for a larger development of the
work of the Methodist Church, in
cluding the expansion of church
property, the construction of a new
church somewhere on the llill. and
attempts to offer better religious op
portunities to the foreign element.
The speaker of the evening, Dr.
George H. Bickley. of Philadelphia,
told of the work among the foreign
Clement of that city, and laid particu
lar stress on the necessity for taking
care of these peoples. The slums
need the help of the church, said Dr.
Bickley, and with all the nations rep
incrcases strength of delicate, nervous,

many instances. Used and highly en

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
Are a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are the
result of Dr. Edwards' determination
not to treat liver and bowel complaints
ttith calomel. For 17 years he used
these tablets (a vegetable compound
mixed with olive oil) in his private
practice with great success.
They do all the good that calomel
does but have no bad after effects. No
pains, no griping, no injury to the
gums or danger from acid foods—yet
they stimulate the liver and bowels.
Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
when you feel "logy" and "heavy."
Note how they clear clouded brain and
perk up the spirits. 10c and 25c a box
TELLS DYSPEPTICS
WHAT TO EAT
Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach,
Heartburn, Gum oil Stomach, Ktc.
Indigestion and practically all I
forms of stomach trouble, say medi- |
cul authorities, are due nine times j
out of ten to an excess of hydro- j
chloric acid in the stomach. Chronic j
"acid stomach" is exceedingly danger- j
ous and sufferers should do either
one of two thiilye.
Either they can go on a limited and \
often disagreeable diet, avoiding j
foods that disagree with them, that ;
irritate the stomach and lead to ex- j
cess acid secretion or they can eat |
as they please in reason and make it |
a practice to counteract the effect of i
tlie harmful acid and prevent the for
mation of gas, sourness or premature
fermentation by the use of a little i
Bisurated Magnesia at their meals. !
There is probably no better, safer
or more reliable stomach antiacid
than Bisurated Magnesia and it is f
widely used for this purpose. It has |
no direct action ou the stomach and ■
is not u digestent. But a teaspoonful j
of the powder or a couple of live gram
tablets taken in a little water with I
tlie food will neutralize the excess
acidity which may be present and '
prevent its further formation. This i
removes tnc whole cause of the i
trouble and the meal digests natur
ally and healthfully without need of !
pop,sin. pills or artificial digestents. I
Get a few ounces of Bisurated Mag- ,
nesia from any reliable druggist. Ask I
loT either powder or tablet. it'
never comes us a liquid, milk or
citrate and in the bisurated form is
not a laxative. Try this plan and
eat what you want at your next meal 1
and see if this Isn't the best advice i
you ever had on "what to eat."

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
resentend in one huge, misunder
standing mass, the church can do a
great work in Americanization.
•"/he method of frontal attack will
fail. It is a problem to be dealt with
by siege methods, by tactful persons
of the missionary type. It is a for
eign missionary problem transplant
ed to home soil."
Another interesting problem for the
church is the development and caring
fot the community. Newcomers must
be looked after, as they seem to lose
their religion when moving from
place to place. Said Dr. Bickley:
"Why, 1 know some good people in
Philadelphia who have a hard time
taking their teligion to Atlantic City
for a summer and getting back with
it it seems to melt away from them
as soon as they are on the boardwalk
or in the water."
What -Methodism has accomplished!
i ir. this city and vicinity was told by !
Warren Van Dye, president of the |
Union. With the exception of the ]
| Camp Curtin Church, said ilr. Van j
Dyke, every church of the fourteen
I comprising the union is free from
debt, and all are in a flourishing con
dition.
It was announced that the Metho-j
dist Children's Home at Mechanics
burg will be opened Thanksgiving !
Day. Thirty-live applicants have al- j
ready been received, and only 40 can I
be accommodated. A board of man- j
agers of two women from each con- j
giegation will have charge of the in- |
stitution. All of the 250 churches of I
the Conference will finance it.
Dr. 15. R. Heckman. superintendent j
of the Harrisburg District, said that j
the foreign born element of Harris-1
burg is being taken care of by a deti- |
nite program. He also read a reso- |
lution to be presented at the next gen- J
cral association meeting providing i
that all surrounding towns connected |
with this city by car lines and within j
u radius of ten miles be included in j
the Harrisburg District. This would |
allow the district to work in Steel ton. j
where there is a large foreign born j
population.

BUSINESS MEANS
TO CRUSH LABOR,
GOMPERS SAYS
Considers Time Ripe For the
Final Blow, He Tells
Workers
By Associated Press
Washington, Oct. 2 9. —More than
ten thousand organized workers of
the District of Columbia who pa- j
raded down Pennsylvania avenue |
last night in honor of Samuel Comp
els, president of the American Feder
ution of Labor, later heard the vet
eran labor leader assert that "big
business" definitely liaj) determined j
"to give labor because of its growing j
strength a blow between the eyes."
The attitude of the United States j
Steel Corporation toward the steel J
workers' unions, he added, was only •
one manifestation of this dctermi- j
nation on the part of industry. Mr. :
Compels said that while at, the be- i
ginning of the steel strike he con- |
sidered it "untimely since learning 1
of the plans of the steel companies I
in common with all large employers j
he had changed his mind and now ;
the steel strikers had his utmost
sympathy." As evidence of this sym
pathetic attitude he appealed to the
District of Columbia workers to con
tribute to the support of the strik
ers.
Mr. Compels declared that lie pre
ferred to interpret what had been
said and done in his honor, as a tri
bute to the labor movement rather
than to himself. The American
Federation* of Labor, he said, was |
"no one man movement."
"You know of the troubles which
are before us," he told the union
men. "These include the steel j
strike. 1 regarded the inauguration i
of that strike not as wrong but as j
untimely. "You will note that I am j
speaking in the past tense."
Mr. Gompers added that at the |
time the steel workers walked j
out, information had come to himj
from two sources which he could not I
disregard that "big busines" had I
met and consulted and had deter- I
mined that the moment was a prop- |
er one to administer a blow to or
ganized labor. Labor was gaining |
so much power and inliuence, lie:
said, that business determined to |
crush it once and for all. Inasmuch |
as the industrial situation was pass- j
ing from a war to a peace basis Mr. !
Gompers charged the United States
Steel Corporation considered that in
the midst of this transition period
the moment was ripe for a show
down. The decision was made, he
added, to provoke deliberately the
workmen to strike in order to de
feat them.
"1 don't believe in strikes when I
the boss wants it," he asserted. "It |
is n science to know when and when I
not to strike."
Charging that the steel corpora
tion had discharged thousands of
men for no other reason than be
cause of their connection with or
ganized labor, he said the workers
became apprehensive and they could
not be kept from going out, even
though the strike appeared to be a
plan of the steel interests.
"Yet, if they had not walked out
when they did," he continued, "they
would undoubtedly have fallen,
sooner or later, under the malignant
inliuence of the I. AV. W. and llol
shoviki so that there was the fur
ther issue involved of preserving*
these workers in the ranks of order
ly organized labor or of seeing them
abandoned to the disorderly forces
arising in their midst."
The federation president charged
that the foreign language press had
long endeavored to prejudice the
cause of organized labor.
"Such newspapers," he declared,
"are suborned and subsidized by fhe
financial interests and especially by
the United States Steel Corporation.
All the aggi essions which have led
lo anything like disorder have been
made possible by this concern."
He expressed as his belief that the
steel strikers were in a better posi
tion to-day than at any time since
the strike occurred.
"The steel strike is not lost as
Mr. Gary has asserted," the speaker
added. "It will be won if the proper
support is given them."
As what he termed a second sub
ject of contemporary interest to the
working man, Mr. Gompers read
j one of the bills recently introduced
in Congress to prohibit strikes. Say
ing that he with the late John Mit
chell and Secretary Morrison, of the
American Federation of Labor, ondi
had been sentenced to prison, he
affirmed that he could never be for
bidden to express his conscientious
judgment on any issue concerning
the rights of the American people.
"Neither will the barking and
( howling of industrial interests af
fect me," he went on. "This bill
would reintroduce industrial servi
tude in the United States. It could
not and would not; prevent strikes.
Strikes should be avoided; so should
wars. What man regrets the revo
lutionary war? The working people
of America have a right to stop work
when their interests impel them to
stop work. The strike is only an
aspiration for a higher ami better
life."
CLOTHING FOR POLAND
Clothing weighing 1320 pounds, and
including 120 pairs of shoes was yes
terday shipped to Poland. It is first
donation from Zion Lutheran Church
and the first shipment to go to the

rected the packing and shipment. The
congregation paid all charges,
amounting to $302.

Wallace and S. Miller Kent are some
jof the well known und liked players
j who will come to the Orpheuni to
morrow evening in Walter llast's
i prediction of the new drama, "Eve
and the Man." Miss Holmes, who has
appeared here as a member of several
.successful attractions, gained an im
mense popularity with local theater
goers and her return in the leading
I part of a new production is certain
Ito gain for her the warmest of wel
comes from her thousands of local
admirers, Mr. Wallace, who is one of
'the best known of the younger lead
ling nicr. of the stage, was last seen
jliere playing opposite to Laurette
i Taylor in "The Wooing of Eve." Mr.
'Kent is an actor of proved ability
and has made, many appearances
I here, often at the head of His own
c impany.
"GOOD MOHXING, JUDGE"
Shep Camp, who will lie seen oppo
site George Hassell in "Good Morn
ing, Judge" when that musical
comedy comes to the Orpheum Thurs
day night, divides honors with that
rotund star when it comes to avoir
dupois as well as humor. Camp is a
great favorite on the road, but will
probably he seen little by theater
goers in future, for lie has developed
into a regular business man. He has
long been known as a successful song
writer and somewhat of a play
wright. Fast year he invested his
earnings from those sources in a sea
side hi to! at Rye, N. Y., and did so
v.oll that when his present contracts
expire he will retire from the stage
to devote himself to the hotel busi
ness. His 245 pounds weight and ex
pansive smile constitute an adver
tisement or his business that is too
valuable to lose, even for the salary
he-receives in musical comedy. At
odd times he will continue to tinker
with songs and plays while garnering
the prosperity tax from summer
boarders.
"I'NDKR ORDERS"
The presentation of "Under Orders"
at the Orpheum on Friday and Sat
urday matinee and night promises, it
is claimed, to be one of the most
notable events of the theatrical sea
son. No play of recent years has so
distinguished a place in the esteem of
both the press and public. "Under
Orders" was presented at the Eltingc
Theater in August, 1918. by A. H.
Woods and remained at that theater
for nearly six months, after which it
toured the big cities of the Fast with
enormous success. The New York
newspapers were unanimously of the
opinion that the play was one of the
most artistic, original and interesting
dramatic novelties that the American
1 heater has yet offered. So conserva
tive a magazine as Current Opinion
said. "Tv is undoubtedly the most
novel drama yet produced by the
war." Fouls Y. PeFoe. the well
known critic of the New York World,
said, "An an example of amazing
technique, this domestic story which
has the war as its background, has
not been equaled. 'Under Orders' is
as well rounded and complete, purely
as drama, as if a dozen characters
were concerned. It contains all the
needed suspense and surprise." "Un
der Orders" is presented in four acts
end is the work of the well known
English author and actor, Bert
Thomas, with revision and elabora
tion by Roi Cooper Megrue.
AT THE MAJESTIC
Palifra, Hall and Brown, the sec
ond scer.ie act. with plenty of come
dy. is scoring a tremendous hit at the
Majestic Theater. But to-day is
their last appearance along with the
other four headlincr Keith acts. To
mor9w McWaters and Tyson. Har
risburg's favorite vaudeville team,
will appear here. This couple has
played to every Keith house audience
in the world and have more than
made grod. They are known uni
versally. Several months ago they
l'laved here and Harrisburgers liked
their act beyond a shadow of a doubt.
This time they will present an en
tirely different act. Miss Tyson and
Arthur McWaters just returned from
a vftudeville tour of South Africa and
had many novel experiences. Harris
burgers may be fortunate enough to
have, some* of these amusing Incidents
told to them. Four other headlincr
| acts will complete the bill.
Heavy Loss Is Caused by
Restaurant Fire Which
Spreads to Apartments
Fire, which started when a pot of
grease boiled over in the Ttusy Bee res
taurant. 9 North Fourth street, at five
o'clock last evening, caused considerable
damage to the restaurant and offices
and apartments located above it. Dam- 1
are from water resulted to the shoe
store of W. F. Paul, 11 North Fourth
street, and to the Woolworth Five and
TVn Cent store. •
An employe o.' the restaurant, Andy
Paulas, Jiad placed a pot of grease on
the oil stove for the purpose of render
ing fat for soap. On the stove for sev
eral minutes It boiled over and the
kitchen was soon enveloped in flames.
It spread to the apartments on the sec
ond, floor.
The fire had spread considerably when
the firemen arrived, but was speedily
gotten under control. The flames had
just eaten through the walls to the
Woolworth store and seriously threat
ened the Paul shoe store. It had- eaten
through the floors of the building and
had caused damage to the second story
above 9 and It North Fourth street.
Water increased the damage. Included
among the offices damaged were those
of Dr. M. G. Schantz and Jesse K.
Sechrist, optometrist, together with a
suite of rooms of Peter Mcgaro, pro
prietor of the Regent theater. Four
apartments above the Paul store were
damaged.

The motion picture
with an amazing soul
"The Miracle Man"
is laid in two worlds
that sharply contrast,
New York's China
town, and the world
of simple natural
happy existence in a
New England village
in summertime. There
is a strange fascina
tion about the Chinese
section of New York,
but the main excite
ment of the picture is
felt when Chinatown
characters are seen in
all their villainy
against a rural New
England background
