A feature of last night's-service in
the tabernacle was the singing of a
I song composed by a Steelton young
man, Charles A. Pieice. The Rev. Mr.
] Hillis poke on the atonement. "The
j story of the blood was all through the
' Bible, and if you take that storv awav
| you take away the verv life of the Bi
! ble. Jesus shed his biood for the life
|of many. Our religion is a blood re
i ligion. If you are ever saved, it will
be by the blood of Christ. Atonement
makes us one with God. You are re
deemed by the blood of Christ, but you
are not saved until you accept Jesus
Christ.''
About 500 members of the borough's
volunteer fire department are expected
to attend next Sunday afternoon's
meeting in the Hillis tabernacle to hear
a special lecture by the evangelist.
The executive committee has had
extensive improvements made to the
building for the purpose of making the
atmosphere inside more comfortable.

FINE MOLLEifPiPE ORCAN
INSTALLED IN THE RECENT
Manager Magaro Announce* He Will
Soon Have An Opening Recital By
a Prominent Musician For Market
Street Motion Picture House
Continuing his policy of constantly
nddiug to the attractions of his motion
picture theatre, The Regent, 410 Mar
ket street, Peter Magaro, owner and
manager, announced to-day that the
$10,04)0 Moller pipe organ recently
purchased from the manufacturers in
Hagerstown, has bpen completely in
stalled. Mr. Magaro ie now planning
a fine concert the date of which will
soon 'be announced, on which occasiou
the oiyau will- be used for the first
time in a recital by an artist who will
be especially engaged.
The Regent is the newest motion
picture theatre in the city, having
been in use only a few months since
it was Ibuilt. It is modern, artistic and
comfortable in every detail and the
addition of the organ, which is a part
of the manager's originallv announced
plan, is intended to be the crowning
touch to this beautiful theatre in the
heart of the business district. The M.
P. Moller Organ Company is an old
established firm noted for" the fine in
struments it produces. The organ that
has been installed in the Regent has
3o tops and the tone is pronounced
wonderfully mellow and melodious.
Two of the group of pipes are arrang
ed, one at either side of the gallery in
the front part of the building. These
latter constitute the chimes and echo
features of the organ.
The instrument will be played from
a keyboard in the pit of the house, di
rectly in front of the screen, by an ar
tist of rare musical attainments who
will be regularly employed by Mr.
Magaro. His name will "soon b'e an
nounced.
From this keyboard also will be
operated the unit orchestra consisting
of a group of various kinds of mistical
instruments near the motion picture
screen. The orchestra will ibe so ar
ranged that the various instruments
can be played, individually or collec
tively to produce effects to correspond
with the action in the film plays. It is
proposed at certain times during the
regular programs in the theatre to have
organ recitals of popular and classic
music apart from the screen produc
tions and at other times the organ
music will be used to make the motion
pictures the more effective.
The Regent is constantly maintain
ing the quality of its programs of pic
tures which from the first have been
fine. The paramount program is used
daily and in addition thcro are manv
Schubert productions thrown on the
screen. The policy of daily introducing
a famous stage star through the film
medium has been most effectively used
by Manager Magaro.
DR. CAROLYN CEISEL WILL
ADDRESS WOMEN ON FRIDAY
Her Associate Speaker, With Flying
Squadron of America, Will Be Dr.
Ira Landrith. Educator and Former
Moderator of Presbyterian Assembly
Of interest to women of church, civ
ic and temperance societies of the city
will be the meetings of the Flying
Squadron of America on Friday at 2.30
and 7.30 p. m. in the Grace M. E.
church when Dr. Carolyn Geisel of the
Battle Creek, Mich. .Sanitarium aud
noted woman physician of the-country,
is to make addresses, according to Mrs.
M. Margery Steese, who is in charge of
the effort of rallying the women of
these societies to the meetings of this
organization with speakers of national
importance engaged in the nation-wide
movement for a national prohibition
amendment.
E. W. Weaver is chairman of the
local executive committee arranging for
the meetings and looks forward to ca
pacity audiences to greet the Squad
ron which has now conducted three-day
campaigns in over :!u0 leading cities
of the country, making splendid prog
ress in the fight to crystalize public
sentiment for national prohibition with
its eradication of the liquor traffic
from American life.
With Dr. comes as associate
speaker, Dr. Ira Landrith, a well-known
educator and former moderator of the
Presbyterian General Assembly, while
the soloist will be Frederick Butler, of
New York, who was formerly leading
basso of the Alice Neilsen Opera Com
pany. Airs. Butler will be the pianist.
A graduate of the University of
Michigan Dr. Geisel later took ad
vanced courses of study at Petrograd,
Russia, after which she did much re
search work at the Pasteur Institute
in Paris. She also holds three Ameri
can medical diplomas. Some years ago
she took up the study of the'scientific
temperance phase of the liquor traf
fic, of the effect of alcohol on the hu
man body, and in her forthcoming ad
dresses 9he plans to tell of the ravages
of runi on the human system from the
viewpoint of the pathologist. Her
topic will be "Alcohol and the Mau
Himself."
Dr. Lan.lrith has been for years a
leader of the International Y. M. C. A.,
and at the last convention of the or
ganization was made president. He
was one of the founders of the Ten
nessee Anti-Saloon League and has al
ways been a leading official of the or
ganization, being now a member of the
executive committee. In association
with Dr. Howard Grose he wrote at the
Atlantic City convention, the prohibi
tion campaign slogan of the great
Christian Endeavor Movement, (of
which he is one of international trus
tees), "A Saloonless Nation by 1920,
the Three Hundredth Anniversary of
Landing of the Pilgrims," the slogan
which has since been adopted by al
most every temperance organization in
the country.
Those early impressions that the drug
users had quit appear to have been too
early. It is now feared that the worst
is not yet known. IMany cities report
an astounding increase in the number
of cases found by the police and hos
pitals. The evil was attacked none too
soon.—'Pittsburgh Dispatch.

: DIFFERENCESJN GRAPHITES
i
j Information Especially Valuable to Mo
torists Who Doubt Superiority
of Graphite Lubrication
The other day the writer was in a
garage in town ami happened to witness
ja demonstration of graphite as a lubri
cant for automobiles. It appealed so
I forcefully and he got- such a new point
of view about graphite that he thought
| motorists would appreciate knowing
; what he learned.
The man demonstrating is an expert
on auto lubrication for the Joseph Dix
jon Crucible Company, 0 f Jersey City,
I First of all he explained the two
j different kinds of graphite—crystalline
| (flake) and amorphous or plain graph
! 'te. ft was stated that the flake, no
i matter how microscopically divided,
j can never be anything but a flake. The
| amorphous briaks up into a tine powder.
He then took some of the latter kind
! into the palm of his hand and began
j rubbing it with his finger. We noticed
| that it could not be rubbed off. That
I was due to its adhesiveness. As far as
| that, plain graphite proved very satis-
I factory, but to go a little farther, he
wet the fingei* which he was rubbing
j and it could be noticed that it slid over
I the hand with difficulty, though the
I graphite still remained. Some one asked
I why, and he explained how the plain
| graphite had worn off the high spots
I and remained in the pores, giving the
impression that it was all there. IHe
repeated this process of wetting his
finger and rubbing his palm several
times and every time'it became black
I after a slight contact with the graph
i ite. This proved how easily the
amorphous graphite would wear.
To show the superiority of crystalline
j he placed some of Dixon's Flake Motor
Graphite in his hand and repeated the
I same experiment. This time, after
i wetting, his finger moved over the palm
easily and smoothly and did not black
| as rapidly, proving the ability of Dix
on's Flake Motor Graphite to resist
wear.
The amorphous graphite when rubbed
between two pieces of paper under
pressure rolled up into little granules.
| The flake, the tnore it was rubbed,
worked up a smoother, shinier, more
slippery surface. This explains why
people who buy plain graphite find it a
poor lubricant, while selected flake
graphite makes bearings better and re
duces friction.
