c. F. BRISBIN

stood sponsor for the movement for
better housing conditions in Harris
burg and under his administration
big strides were made in that direc-
ton.
Mr.. Reinoehl was born in Lebanon
and after graduation at the Univers-
ity of Pennsylvania, in 1898 he en-
tered the commercial department of
the Bell Telephone Company at his
home town, following a brief expert
ence in newspaper work. He was
later manager at Lancaster, Scran-
ton, Reading, West Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh, coming to Harrisburg as
district manager in 1912. He was
also located in this city from 1907
to 1908 as chief clerk to Leonard
H. Kinnard, who was then general
manager of the Pennsylvania Tele-
phone Company. He will have his
new headquarters at 1880 Arch
street, Philadelphia. Under his ad-
ministration the business of the Har-
risburg division has grown tremen-
dously and has reached a high state
of efficiency.
G. T.. Brisbin Coming
G. F. Brisbin, who succeeds Mr..
Reinoehl. has had wide experience
in telephone work. He started his
career in Dubois in 1895 and had a
hand in the early development of
the telephone industry in this State.
He began at the bottom rung of the
ladder and his rise with the Bell
company is due to his own efforts.
He has been district manager in
Wilkes Barre since 1910, and under
his hand the development in that sec
ton has reached a remarkable point.
Mr.. Brisbin has always taken a great
interest in civic and public move
ments and was very active during
the war. He is a former vice-presi-
dent of the Wilkes-Barre Chamber
of Commerce and was the second
president of the Rotary Club, at
Wilkes-Barre. He was a member of
the Wilkes-Barre branch of the
executive committee of the Nations
Security League for three years and
director of the bureau of civilian
relief, American Red Cross.

SOLDIER FAVORS
ONELARGE POST
Former Captain Ralph C.
Grow Gives Views on
Legion Organization

Pointing out that a West Shore
post of the American Legion would
be a splendid move because an or
ganization of this kind would en-
courage municipal improvements
and cleaner politics in Cumberland
county together with other features,
Ralph C. Crow, of Lemoyne, former
ly a captain in the United States
Army, in statement to-day, heartily
endorsed the move. He volunteered
his services in bringing about the
organization.
Mr.. Crow is of the opinion that
one strong organization with such
a membership as the West Shore
post would likely accomplish
more and be operated with less
expense than number of small
ones. He declared there is much ex-
pense connected with keeping up a
post and said small organizations
will soon find themselves in n rut.
The service men want to place them
selves in a position where it will not
be necessary to solicit funds from
the people.
The former army officer reviewed
the recent election and declared
there was room TO clean up polltlCS
in Cumberland county. The soldier,
he believes, is the fellow to be an
endorser of a move for better politics
and with an organization of this
membership much could be accom-
plished for the county and the West
Shore.
Another advantage of West Shore
post, Mr.. Crow pointed out, was that
there would be a better showing for
the cross river towns on Memorial
Day, or when eX-soldiers are asked
to parade. The men could be drilled
together and fine working military
organization result. Again, too, APP
preparations from the county could
be obtained for celebrations, by the
influence of a large organization. Mr..
Crow said. He felt a large organi-
zation of this kind is bound to be
recognized.

Biz Griffith Play Comes Tomorrow

Many critics. who have been stern est in their eXactions of American dramatists. announce their belief that D. W. Griffith has put over" the great American play at last. Mir. GriffIh's wonderful spectacle drama, The Birth Of a Nation,' is referred to-unique offering at the Columbia theater. Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week. Popular prices will prevail.
 For many years American drama lists wrote able plays of particular states. cities or localities. ranging from Alabama" to the Henrietta" and from Way Down East" to "The Great Divide" But no one man seemed to grasp the whole spirit and genius of American until David Wark Griffith picked a suggestion for his theme out of DiXon's ''The Leopard's Spots" and The Clansman" ad started to de- velope it.
 A remarkable thing about Mir. Grif- fith's plan is that words (except for leaders and titles) did not enter into 1t. Perhaps words had cramped rather than aided previous fictionists and dramausts. At any rate, he replaced speech with music, and the old fashioned stage action and scenery by the pictorialized action of thou sands of players in the great out-of- doors. In brief, he staged the great battles, struggles and critical events or 1S61-'70 under conditions as nearly as possible similar to the original.
 The result of MT. Griffith's efforts IS a new and stupendous art for which no adequate name has yet been found.
 The Birth of a Nation combines specticle, romance domestic drama comedy, tragedy, music and mechani cal effects into harmonious ensemble that captivates equally the eye and the ear: In presentation lasting two hours and forty-five minutes, it epitomizes tne life of a nation. this is something the old art could never do. The obso. lete so-called stage unitiesp are thrown to the winds, and Griffith car ries the magnificent story from the introduction of African slavery right uoWn through Civil war and Recon strucuon days to the final real union or south and north in the bonds of love and peace.
 Among the distinguished actors in the cast are Henry B. Walthall IiI- nan Glsh, Mae Marsh, Miriam Cooper Wary Alden, Josephine CroweIl. Ralph Lewis, Joseph Henabery, Raoul Walsh Donald Crisp. Howard Gaye, George
