CHEESEMAKER SAID
TO LOSE "PUNCH"
AFTER 40TH YEAR
Uncle Sam Passes the Word
in Seeking Experts to
Make "Foreign" Products
Dear to Epicure.
After a man's 40th year his ability na
cheesetnakcr deteriorates, nccordlng to
Undo Bam.
Ho has said ns much to all persons
seeking Jobs ns chccscmakcrs for tho
Government.
Confidentially speaking, It Is no secret
thnt Undo Sam Intends to manufacture
"Imported" chceso. If ho Is successful,
then such choice, brands as Camembcrt,
Itoqucfort, Swiss nnd others will prob
ably bo made on n farm In Conshohockcn
or Narbcrth.
Tho cost of Importing It to this city
being reduced, thcro should bo a com
panitlvo icductlon In tho price. Hut this
had to como, for Bomo chceso was getting
so dear that Jewelers wero thinking about
uslnjr It In stickpins and rings.
Tho civil service examination of cheese
makers began yesterday. In addition to
being under 40, It Is stated In tho an
nouncement of the chceso contest that
thoso who speak the German lnnguagn
fluently will havo preference.
Thoro nro many who bellovc Uncle Sam
should manufacture neutral cheeno, and
others aro nonplussed because they can
not sco whnt n man's dialect has to do
with tho matter. It may, however, cause
somo kind of a psychological condition
which may affect tho flavor of tho cheese.
Tho Government realizes that tho war
will causo n shortago In cheese, and, ns
tho welsh rabbit and spaghetti market
may bo seriously affected, desires to
"take tho bull by tho horns."
Another peculiar condition Imposed upon
all entrants Is thnt each must hnvo a
plcturo of himself and no tintype will bo
ncccpted. This Is especially emphasized.
Tho duties will bo to assist In the rxperl
mentul manufacture of foreign cheeses,
nnd Inter demonstrate tho work among
chccscmakcrs. Thoso who nro successful
III receive from J120O to JHOU. Tho lower
figure probably applies to thoso In tho
llmburger class.
No women will be admitted to tho con
test. GIRL OF 16 SEEKS FATHER
"TO MAKE HIM SUPPORT US"
Taken From Train From Faston on
Her Way to Baltimore.
Helen Parker, 10 years old, of Kaston,
Pa., Is looking for her father who, sha
sas, deserted her mother two jeara ago
and left her, tho eldest child at home, to
bo tho solo support of her mother and five
brothers and sisters.
Tho girl was taken from a ttaln nt
Wayne Junction today by Policeman
IMchardscn, of tho Gernutitown station,
after word was received from Easton that
she was on her way hnre. Sho wns senj
to tho IIouso of Detention to await fur
ther word from tho Kuston authorities.
A ticket to Baltlmoro and a few dollars
were all sho had.
"Wo had a happy family until my
father Herbert Parker, left us with a
young girl nnd went to Detroit two ycara
ago," she said. "I havo hud to work
hard, and decided that tho best thing to
do was ti Ilnd him and moko him support,
my mother and my brothers and sisters.
The youngest Is 2 years old.'
"I thought I could got a'bclter job and
save money In Baltlmoie. Then I wns
going to Detroit. My brother Harry lives
there, ami maybe ho could help mo find
fnther, who keeps,' a store In Detroit, I
think."

"Philadelphia to tho front."
That is tho slogan raised by the Poor
Richard Club in tho campaign which It
has begun to bring the convention of
tho Associated Advertising Clubs ot tho
World to Phllado plila next i car. The
convention will be held In Chicago this
year, but tho Poor Richard, not to bo
outdone by nny other organization from
somo other city, has already fired its
first broadside and will continue to flio
still heavier broadsides frcm now on
until Its object Is attalnoJ.
San Francisco, St. Puul nnd Cincinnati
are also In tho raco fur the convention,
tho coming of which to any city means
a great Increase In business for that city
and an advertisement tho value of uhlch
cannot bo estimated In money.
Taking the advlco of Sumuol C. Dobbs,
former president of the Associated Ad
vertising Clubs of tho World, tho Poor
Rlcimrtl has begun to make plnns for
accomplishing Its purpose. Tho main
line of campaign will be to canvass every
man who Is likely to bo a dcleg.ito tn
tha Chicago convention of tho associated
clubs In Juno and mako him pledge him
self to voto for Philadelphia as tho con
vention city for next year. Tho name of
Philadelphia will be cast broadcast
throughout the land from now on, so
that the 10,000 members of t'no associated
clubs may know that there Is such a
city In tho United States and that not
only was Philadelphia able to produca
goods In greater amounts und of better
equality than nny other city In the
United States, but that It was also ready
to servo tho country by selling these
goods.
CO-OPERATION THE WATCHWORD.
Speaking on this matter today, Mr.
Dobbs, whose homo is In Atlanta, vvhero
he Is thn viae president of tho Coca Cola
Company, said:
"I do not urge tho Poor Richard to enter
the raco for the convention In tho spirit
of competition. I think that wo ate en
tering upon an era of co-operation, an
era when all the great industrial cities
and centres will co-opcrato for their mu
tual benefit rather than try to do each
other out of something. Tho troublo with
Philadelphia In particular Is that she Is
too modest. She does not advertlso
enough. Philadelphia makes some of tha
best goods In tho world nnd makes them
In greater volume than any other city In
the world. Yet the pcoplo of this coun
try do not rcallza It. It Is up to Phila
delphia to mako them realize It. You in
Philadelphia wore making good clotlies
when wc, in the South, were going
ragged. I suspect that Philadelphia is tho
best town for making goods and the worst
town for telling about them."
E. J. Cattcll, City Statistician, said:
"I think that this is a great opportunity
that Philadelphia has ut hand. Wo should
leave no stone unturned In bringing tho
convention of tho Associated Advertising
Clubs of tho World to this city. Phila
delphia must simply learn to advertise
more. Wo are doing ourselves as well
as tho future generations a grave Injus
tice by keeping the fair name of Philadel
phia In the background. Our productive
capacities aro unexcolled by nny other
city In tho country. Wo can produce
more goods and better goods than any
other city, but we don't seem to be able
to tell tho world that we can do this. It
Is time that wo begin to do this. With
proper advertising Philadelphia should
have a population of 3.600,000 In 20 years,
nnd should stand as the Industrial me
tropolis of the world."

The Wreckers
How tons should It take nn Infuriated
mob of workmen to wreck a saloon?
Authorities on these rough-and-ready
statistics being rather silent on tho mat
ter, Bnrry O'Nell, tho LuMn director,
aided nnd abetted by his specially trained
mob of I.ubln extras, stops forward nnd
claims tho btuo ribbon. O'Nell's mob
wrecked beyond repair tho extorlor nnd
Intorlor of n snloon In exactly 2 minutes
and 31 seconds.
O'Nell Is filming Henry Arthur Jones
drama, "Tho Evangelist," nnd ono of
tho big scenes calls for tho wrocklng of
a saloon by an nngry mob, Tho nctlon
Is supposed to tnko place In Trontlstown,
En p., and to get tho right atmosphera a
perfect reproduction of an old English
public liouso wns built. Tho exterior was
complcto In every detail, from tho old
fashioned lanterns and leaded pane win
dows down to tho keg-o'-nlo scats out
side. Insldo was a completely equipped
tavern. At tho front -were tho usual old
tables, chairs and cozy corners, nnd
nt thn back a long; Amerlcnn-typo of bar.
About tho room wero hundreds of bot
tles of nil Brts of Intoxicants, dozens
of glasses, mugs, Jugs and everything
necessary for tho soothing of oiio'h thirst
or inclination, whtlo platc-glns mirrors
and lanterns noro In ovldcnco everywhere.
a?f"cv''nss' f.
KATHLYN WILLIAMS
Ol the Selig Players.
It took the Lublii carpenters und artists
thrco weeks to build tho tavern.
When O'Nell turned his mob loose o
the tavern tho proprietor of tho latter
place wns doing a rushing business. Two
dozen pcoplo were quenching their thirsts
nnd four pretty bar maids were working
hard to keep thorn all supplied.
O'Nell Instructed his mob, equipped with
wooden locks and stick, to rush the
snloon nnd smash everything In sight
Five cameras wero tiained on the scene.
Hartley McCulIum nnd Miss Frnnkio
Mann led tlio "wrecking brlgadn" when
O'Nell gavo tho word to "let hor go."
Seldom has such a wild sccno taken
plnco In th Luhln studio. Every ono
smashed everything brealcablo In Bight.
Glass (low In every direction. It was
mad frenzy. Men and women were
knocked down In the wild rush and
trampled on. The wooden bricks smashed
glass and landed on heads and faces.
No one cared. It was riotous fun. Every
mirror, every bottle, every glass; In fact,
everything outsldo nnd Insldo, was
smashed to bits. Tho bar was srnnshed
to kindling wood. So were tho chairs
and tables.
At tho end of tha 2 minutes and 31 sec
onds nothing remained to smash. Several
of the players were cut by tho flying glass
or wooden bricks, and quite a numbor got
bruises ns a result of being knocked
down and walked on, but no ono minded,
for tho result obtained exceeded every
expectation.
