" THE MIRACLE MAN," A MIRACLE
PICTURE, IS BEING SHOWN HERE
Sermon in Every Sentence; Holds Spectators in Awe and
Sends Them Away Thrilled
"The Miracle Man," showing all
this week at the Regent theater, un
questionably is one of the best pic
tures ever exhibited in Harrisburg
and certainly one of the most re
markable productions in all the his
tory of motion-picture making. No
body can see it without being pro
foundly moved, and the impression
lasts long after the last scene has
faded slowly from the screen. It is
a sermon in film form if ever there
was one.
. No better description has been
written of it than is contained in the
two column editorial—probably the
first of its kind ever published—in
the North American, when the film
was first shown In Philadelphia.
A Miracle Play
"It is a miracle play," says the
North American, and continues:
"Its elusive yet unforgettable
quality is revealed in the fact that
the story may be told in two sen
tences, yet might not be conveyed
in words filling as many pages. A
gang of tenderloin criminals hear of
the strange powers of a 'patriarch'
in a remote village, whose beauty of
life and faith have helped to bring
health and peace of mind to the suf
fering: assuming innocence and be
lief, they surround him, and stage
a pretended "miracle," through
which they plan to exploit the sight
less healer as a business enterprise.
Their cunning succeeds beyonds all
their hopes. But unconsciously they
fall under the spell which they had
sought to use —they are themselves
transformed, lifted by faith from de
pravity to a cleansed, ennobled
manhood and womanhood.
"That is all. A theme of ele
mental simplicity, yet as complex
as the human heart: as modern as
yesterday's news, yet as old as the
hills of Galilee. It is the simplicity
of the story and its telling that
makes the picture's success BO strik
ing. It has none of the magnificent
settings and ingenious theatrical il
lusions of those spectacles which
have evoked acclaim and wonder
ment. Its subtle power is compar
able only to that of one other pro
duction, 'Broken Blossoms.' And
that searching drama has the spe
cial appeal, of an idealized foreign
atmosphere, of a suggestion of livid
horror which stirs by sheer pain the
depths of feeling. But the magnet
ism of this story lies in its scenes
of beauty and tranquility no less
than in those of sordidness and fe
rocity. Its passion is masterful, but
Its quietude is irresistible. It steals
into the heart like an exquisite
poem, lives in the memory like a
haunting song."

propriate floats.
The general memorial service will
be held in the Court House yard on
Sunday afternoon. This service will
be in charge of the ministers of all
denominations in the twin boroughs,
assisted by those of the entire coun
ty, at which time the committee ex
pects to have the roll of the heroes
who paid the supreme sacrifice com-,
plete.

spondence with the National Capital
with view of obtaining the service*

Royal, with his airship to take port
in the celebration Lieutenant Mc-
Cullough was in the United States
aerial service in France during the
war, where he made an enviable rec
ord. Besides, he is a product of the
home county.
The parade will start promptly at
2.30 p. m., and it is expected 5,0u0
will be in line, while 15,000 more
will be here as spectators. It will
be by far the biggest day the county

counties in the State, Juniata is very
proud of "her -Veterans.
Dinner wi'l be served to the vet
erans of all wars, including the
nurses and other attaches of the
Army and Navy, promptly at noon.
It is one of Juniata county's boasts
that th'ere are no better providers
than its men and no better culinary
artists than its women. The ad
dresses will be in the nature of after
dinner speeches. The day will close
with a concert of the united musical
organizations in the Court House
yard at 7.30. The committee prom
ises that Harvest Home picnics and
get-together meetings of past ages
will be but small affairs as compared
with the coming celebration, the
decorations alone being well worth
a long journey to see.
tographed picture—and it is the
work of an artist from that stand
point—there runs a deeply religious
strain; a clearly depicted story of
the world-old clash between right
and wrong, and yet there is not one
word of preaching, no plea for
church or creed, only the triumph
of love over hate, of gentleness
over force, of charity over greed; of
God over Mammon.
Probably the most effective scene
is that in which the miracle of heal
ing is shown, which is described
most effectively by the aforemen
tioned editorial in the North Amer
ican, as follows:-
"Masking their purpose with
studied similitude of meekness and
appealing need, the four creatures
from the underworld insinuate
themselves into the life of the 'patri
arch.' Speech and hearing and sight
gone, his spirit is already half with
drawn from the world, and he is
easily made the instrument of their
design, although even through the
silence and darkness that envelop
him there reaches his soul some
haunting sense of the evil that en
velops him. He has no armor
against, it save his purity, no weapon
save his faith. Yet with these he
overcomes.
"The pretended 'miracle,' adroitly
wrought before the eyes of a be
wildered crowd, is a triumph of
spectacular falsehood: as the loath
some 'cripple' crawls painfully up
the cottage path to the motionless
figure of the old man, then slowly
wrenches himself, with feigned con
vulsions of anguish, into human
shape, one thrills to the emotions
of the rapt throng.
"But even while the creature
fawns in a simulation of gratitude
his face stiffens in lines of amaze
ment and terror. He sees toiling to
ward him another victim, not listed
in the criminal's drama of decep
tion—a tiny village child, with
twisted limbs and crutched arms
that can barely support the frail
little body. He has seen the 'miracle'
and believes. Faith touches his
childish soul and draws him for
ward. His gaze fixed upon the up
lifted face of the patriarch, ho
drags himself, like a wounded bird,
up the narrow path. The pitiful lit
tle figure falters, lurches on, halts
again; drops one tiny crutch and all
but topples over—then see! the
other crutch falls, the child stum
bles, rights himself and runs for
ward with wavering steps to clasp
the outstretched hand. A mere trick
of clever stage play when told in
words, the pictured scene is reality
itself to the spectators; through the
darkened theater there runs the
thrill as of a soundless prayer of
thanksgiving."

TOWN READY FOR
RED CROSS CALL
President of Meehanicsburg
Chapter Certain People
Will Bfc Loyal
Meehanicsburg, Pa., Nov. 3.—As
in all previous drives, Meehanicsburg
expects to answer the roll call in
the third annual Red Cross cam
paign. The Rev. H. Hall Sharp,
who is president of the Meehanics
burg chapter, is convinced the drive
for membership will be as success
ful now as in former years, and that
the people will remain loyal to the
organization.
Instead of a war program, the
third roll call is a peace program
tor the family and community. This
includes the teaching and training of
women and girls in home hygiene
and the care of the sick, the aiding
of the families and dependents of
soldiers and sailors.
A number of women and girls of
this place have already been trained
by the lied Cross nursing depart
ment to take care of their families
in the matter of health and to take
care of them in case of sickness. The
membership fee remains at one dol
lur and additional information as to
the plans of the local chapter will
shortly be announced.

Says Dr. Edwards, a Weil-Known
Ohio Physician
Dr.F.M.Edwards for 17 years treated
scores of women for liver and bowel ail
ments. During these years he gave to
his patients a prescription made of a
few well-known vegetable ingredients
mixed with olive oil, naming them
Dr. Edvards' Olive Tablets. You will
know them by their olive color.
' I ' These tablets are wonder-worke* -0 on
the liver and bowels, which cause a
normal action, carrying off the waste
and poisonous matter in one's system.
If you have a pale face, sallow look,
dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue, head
aches, a listless, no-good feeling, all out
of sorts, inactive bowels, you take one
of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets nightly
for a time and note the pleasing results.
Thousands of women and men take
