John Hemphill, Democratic-Liberal candidate for Governor, and other Democratic candidates were to re-unite ir Erie today and continue their tou of the northern tier of counties ir an effort to carry northern Pennsylvania to the Democratic standard.

Yesterday, handicapped by the absence of Hemphill as head of th ticket, the party split into two sections and toured through Bradford Tioga, Potter, McKean, Cameron am Elk Counties. Hemphill was con fined to his Wc-st Chester home witi an attack of grip. Sedgwick Kistler, Democratic can didate for the Senate, and Guy Bard, candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, headed the party into Camerot and Elk Counties, the feature meet ing being held at Welisboro, homt of William B. Wilson, former Secrej tary of Labor in the Wilson Cabinet who has bolted to the Gifford Pin chot following. George Douglas, candidate foi Judge of Superior Court, and Mrs Lucy D.

Winston, candidate for Secretary of Internal Affairs, former the second party, which toured the remaining counties SCREEN STARS IN COMEDY AT ZEMBO TEMPLE The first of the series of plays to be presented by Zembo Temple in its effort to provide the city with first class theatrical productions drew an encouragingly large crowd to the Mosque last night, when the Broadway-bound comedy. "Cherries Are Ripe," made a one-night halt here. The production demonstrated that mechanical defections of the talkies are not entirely to blame for the inability of audiences to tune in on the voice of Vilma Banky, who with Rod La Rocque stepped from the silver screen to headline the play. For although her vivid personality and blonde loveliness penetrated among the craning necks even to the reviewers' row at the back of the those who sat beyond a few yards of the foot lights complained of simply not being able to understand what the woman was saying. Consequently the show, from beginning to end, was La Rocque's.

His non-chalant and melodious droll, which gives him a highly individual stage manner, rolled soothingly through the auditorium. Some cigaret company is neglecting a wonderful opportunity in not going after his endorsement. Of the other six characters, the women all shared the defect of Miss Banky. Richie Ling, as the husband, gave an amusing and sympathetic interpretation. Although it is explained that the comedy was written by Anita Loos and John Emerson, who "acknowledge their indebtedness for the central idea to a story by Gyula Somogyi," one looks at the program a second time to make sure that Mol-nar is not mentioned somewhere.

The dominance of the sex theme in social relations, the attitude of men towards women and women towards men, the lines themselves, are strongly in the tradition of and the final outcome a deluded husband and success to those who hold it lightest all are strongly in the tradition of tlve ironic Hungarian. ford street, spent Saturday in York.

LIFT DETOUR Oil JONESTOVVNROAD The Harrisburg end of the Jonestown road was opened to traffic late yesterday afternoon, and through traffic from the Capitol to Allen-town is now possible without detour. Few motorists who used the detour between this city and Pax-tonia will ever take the ride again, and many car owners went out of their way by way of the River road and Linglestown to escape it.

The opening of this section means a continuous concrete road betw'een Harrisburg and Allentown, except for a few miles west of Hamburg, where there is good macadam surface. It also means a shorter route to New York and the relief of the William Penn out of this city. Later steps may be taken to change the William Penn, which now goes into Newark by way of Reading and Allentown, and route it over the Jonestown road from this city. The Jonestown route has clipped about eight miles off the road distance between here and Allentown and it will be used extensively by tourists from the western part of the State who have been using the William Penn and the Lincoln highways.

21. Every man has his own way of telling how bad business is. The head waiter at the Del Monte Hotel was telling me of a big banquet held there the night before by a well known organization, and he lamented: "It wasn't nothing like the, years before. Why, we cleaned up after 'em in less than an hour this morning." That means times are so hard they are carrying their empty bottles home with 'em. But there was a real barometer of business in the news yesterday.
