MARRIAGE PLAY
Is INTERESTING
Usual Story Told of the Con-
flict of Money and
Love

There is nothing sensational, little
originality and no wonderful climax
to The Marriage Question" played at
the Orpheum last night; but in spite
of this the story is interesting to n
certain extent, as all such romances
are.
The usual tale of a man with money
winning away girl from the man
she loves is told just as the program
states. "in a modern way" The girl
marries because she thinks she can
have everything her heart desires. but
when she finds an ardent lover as her
husband. discomfort starts-an old
sweetheart appears. there is n near
tragedy, and then the story ends the
same as many more. She leaves her
husband, and finally they are reunit-
end and find they love each other
Patti Mckinley, as Billie" the girl
VINO is sold in the matrimonial mar
ket, has a rather attractive person

lines did not make the impression
which is intended. Jack Boyle. as her
husband, and S. II. Thomas, as an old
sweetheart, at times did well. but the
time worn story for a play. Others
in the cast are: Guy Kibbe, as a but
Ter. who furnishes most of the comedy
part of the play; Howard Walsh and

Recruiting Officers to Use
Y. M. c. A. to Keep Fit

Lieutenant Robert w. Lesher, in
command of the recruiting party in
the Harrisburg district, is taking
steps to keep his men physically fit,
so that the change from their re-
cruiting duties to fighting service at
the front will not work any hard
ship to them. Lieutenant Lesher
has directed that all the men in the
Harrisburg office, 325 Market street,
report for physical exercise in the
Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium at Second

for setting up exercises. The war
department has furnished the men
in the party with six medicine balls.
Setting up exercises will be in
charge of Sergeants Young and

Macon, Ca, Jan. 15.-Preparations

Augustus Peabody Gardner, former
Massachusetts Congressman. who died
of pneumonia at Camp Wheeler late

Gardner. accompanied by Major Kee-

Washington. Jan. 1j.-Major Au-
Sustus P. Gardner. former Congress
man, of Hamilton, Mass, died late
yesterday at the Camp Wheeler base
hospital. after short illness from
pneumonia.
His death is directly due to his de-
sire to serve the United States as a
lighting man. He held a colonelcy,
but 1t was a staff position and he
wanted to get into active serv-
ice. Accordingly he took a reduction
in rank and was assigned to Camp
Wheeler, where he contracted pneu-
monia.
In 1914 August Peabody Gardner's
voice was crying in the wilderness
for American preparedness Probably
to him more than to any other pio-
neer is due the present state of Unit
ed States preparedness, while when
Gardner first began his "evangelistic
campaign" national conditions can
best be described by recollection
of the fact that when he gave a din
ner at the National Press Club in
Washington TO the United States Re-
serves" only thirteen appeared.
1t was the preparedness fight that
brought him into national promi-
nGElCtr pul btlOIt ll6l llIHe he ndu
proved himself unafraid to attack
any evil that earned his hatred. no
matter If the whole course of events
seemed calculated to defeat him.
With that fearlessness there was an
intellectual honesty which compelled
him to scorn conventional political
tricks.
His fight in Congress for the re-
striction of immigration caused him
Tn he dpfanfad in fha 1919
governor of Massachusetts,. Later,
solicitously, fellow Congressman
asked him on the floor of the House
if his advocacy of immigration re-
striction had had any effect upon his
candidacy. Grimly, he replied: "I was
the worst beaten man that ever ram"
Every word he used was a punch"
In the earlier days of his prepared
ness for evangelism he described the
United States as "a listless, egois-
tical. helpless giant, shamefully un-
ready to defend himself if attacked"

For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, PIN
pies, rashes, blackheads in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, $1.00. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

THE OBSERVER OBSERVES

An article in the London Observer
says: "The experience of America
shows that high wages mean that the
manufactures must adopt more eco
nomical methods of production" Thus
is issue taken with Secretary Redfeld,
who for seven years has taxed Ameri-
can manufacturers with waste and ex-
travagance in production, giving us
to understand that our industrial in
efficiency is the outgrowth of a pro-
tective tariff, and that if our manu-
facturers were not incompetent we
would need no tariff. However, Mr..
Redfeld's structures were made, for
the most part, before our big manu-
facturers were enlisted in the Govern
ment service to help win the war.

HOG ISLAND EXAMPLE

The President has ordered the At

tons at the Hog Island shipyard.
There are indications that the place is
well named-but it is not the only
shipyard where government money
has been wasted. Moreover, this much
is to be said about the Hog Island
enterprise: its managers are men who
have shown that they know how u or
ganize big industrial enterprises and
get results, whereas there are other
yards which have had proportionally
as much public money where the men
in charge have had neither experience
or knowledge of large industrial con-
ditions.
