ON KIPLING'S STORY

THE Love That Failed" will be the
theme Of the morning sermon by Rev.
J. L. Vance at the United Presbyterian
church tomorrow. Speaking Of his
theme Mr. Vance says: "KiplinE wrote
of The Light That Failed, a tragic
story Of approaching utter and over
whelming blindness, for it was an ar
fist whose eyesight at length left him.
Mr.. Vance has begun a series Of post
vacation sermons on the book of Reve-
lations In his fifth sermon in the
course tomorrow he reaches the John
anime epistle to the Ephesians of
which he says; And the heart of that
letter seems to be when Jesus Iaments
that the church at Ephesus had gone
back on him Thou hast left that first
love He says TO them The ship that
goes down In mid-ocean, the team or
engine that stalls on the upgrade. the
stream that runs dry in summer, each
is a disappointment and vexafion.
but the heart that comes to love Christ
and the things Of Christ less than when
one first became a Christian, must be
a grief to the Saviour. Return thou
unto thy rest, 0 my sou"

At THE REGENT

To-day Daniel Frohman presents the
beautiful Hazel Dawn i'm a thrilling
photo-a adaptation of Henry Arthur
Jones' internationally famous drama,
1.-The Masqueraders."
Hazel Dawn appears as Dulce Lo-
rondie, the girl who becomes a barmaid
to keep the family out of the poor
house. Circumstances make her the
wife of a nobleman of great wealth,
but the transition in her financial and
social position does not i'm any way
initiate against her simplicity of char
acter. Then comes days of terrible
trial and suffering, as her husband
proves to be nothing but a gambler and
sensitive woman actually faces the de-
grading situation of being gambled for
by her husband, who stakes her against
the entire fortune of the man who real
ly has loved her since she was a child
Tomorrow and Thursday - Iasky-
Belasco presents the famous American
dramatic star. Laura Hope Crews. in a
picturization of the Belasco dramatic
success, The Fighting Hope" by Will
liam j. Hurlbut. 1t is the story of a
heroic woman's struggle to believe in
of robbing the bank that employed him
With all the evidence against him, she
still holds to her faith in his innocence
until she is finally confronted by the
"other woman" for whom the crime
was committed.
In addition to Miss Crews herself,
the cast includes Cleo Ridgley, Theo-
dore Roberts, Tom Forman and Gerald
Ward.

READING TO PLAY
LOCAL TOSSERS
Strong Midweek Basketball At
traction; Tallest Man in
Visitors Lineup

In securing the Reading Eastern
League basketball team for Thursday
night the management of the Harris
burg Indepents have booked real
attraction. Reading is one of the best
teams in the country.
The Reading players are all big
men, and in size alone will have a
handicap over the locals. Haggerty
and Kerr will probably alternate at the
center position. Haggerty is the tall
est man playing basketball, and is also
remarkably fast. Dave Kerr, who
was a big factor in the Garnets' vic
tory over the Independents Thanksgiv-
ing night, Is now making good in the
big SHOW" Reading secured him to
jump center when Haggerty was in
jured, and in his first game he out
scored Bill Keenan,, considered one of
the best centers in basketball, six
goals to none.
The locals are improving in their
shooting and passing, and continued
hard work will aid them in making a
good showing, against the 'leaguers,
Thursday night. They realize that
this is the hardest game they Will
probably have this season, and will
work their hardest to be in shape to
play their best game.

Chamber of Commerce shows the in
terest that other cities along the Will

Altoona, Pa, Dec. %, 1915.
Edward l.. McColgin,
Secretary, Chamber of Commercs,
Harrisburg, Pa
MY Dear McColgin:-
"The Altoona Chamber already is
committed to the William Penn High
way project as a result of a recent
sioner Cunningham and a meeting at
Harrisburg as suggested by you is the
proper thing, count us in.
IT'S a mighty nice thing of the
Harrisburg Chamber to take the
initiative in this movement and the
rest of the organizations along the
line will get tight behind you. Am
sending you this word at once and
next week will have it officially con-
firmed by our Good Roads Commit
tee. With the support of the Cover
nor and the Highway Commissioner,
there is no doubt that the William
Penn will be put over and be an
equally as popular a trunk thorough
fare as the Lincoln Highway. Be-
sides it will pass through more popul-
GUS territory, with better hotels. and
put Altoona on the map as well as
