AFTEn-JIIDNIQHT SYMPTOMS.
Tho ivmDtoms given for Just after mld-
f right must bo discarded at 1 o'clock.
After that II Is u question of your knowl
edge and experience until 4 o'clock. It Is
lltllc things that count.
Tho ripcree of nerturbntlon ill tho fnco
if of tho pedestrian Ib Important between
1 and 4 o clocK ami sometimes later.
WHEN LABOR SUMMONS.
At 4 o'clock one may discard tho rev
elers and look only at those who labor.
They begin to appear on the street from
the cross throughfares at that hour, sad
eyed women who shiver under thin
iliawls, whoso feet ahufllo closo to tho
cement In spite of their efforts to savo
shoelealher by lifting them. Tiioy are
fc the soldiers of tho silent army of clean
ers Kiuitjoiiuu, uid)tuijuiiiuuuka iihuicSi
wearily grinding out their lives. On tho
turface they aro sordid figures, with dull
eyes and seamed faces; eyes nnd faces
that by their very lack of lustre nnd
Imprint of suffering conceal from tho
world heroic, transfiguring sacrifices
stories tho world would be better for the
knowing.
Presently tho scattered stream t'nlns
out and disappears. By their numbers
you ihall know the hour. It is nfter &
o'clock when they nre no moro to be
teen In Chestnut street, for by that hour
they aro Inhaling tho dust of ofuces In
the big nnd little buildings. Tho street
then Is almost deserted, but "hero nnd
thero Is a fireman, with a tin box under
his arm you know holds his lunch, al
though It bears no resemblanco to the
cartoonist's Idea of the full dinner pall.
SIX O'CLOCK TYPE.
Thero Is tho beginning of a dull hum
In tho air at i o'clock, for tho trolleys nre
running moro regularly and the people
and types In tho street nre becoming more
numerous. You must look to the types,
. and they are many, and each tells his
own talc.
Tho breadllners nro surest. They aro
coming away from tho Inasmuch Mission
at this hour with coffee nnd bread Inside
of '.hem nnd steps that make bravo efforts
to be buoyant. A llttlo while ago you
taw them shuffling toward 10th street
with pitiful eagerness, half-famished men
Who needed food. Now they come back
and do not avoid your gaze. They step
out with shoulders back, and you know
they have been fed and It Is 0 o'clock.
Then 7 o'clock roUs around, nnd If you
are tho closo student of the types, you
know It Is near 7 before you see the young
of the alien, mostly females, on their way
to the machines of the factory. The ar
tistry of tlme-telllng ends then. It bo
comes ridiculously easy. Overcoats of tho
men get heavier as tho moments pass,
and those who walk nro better groomed
and In less hurry than their brethren of
an hour earlier. It Is 8 o'clock, and Chest
nut Btreet Is f.lllng up like a narrow defile
with the, host of an Invading nrmy.
Slowly the girth of the men Increases.
At 9 o'clock Important-looking, comfort
able men aro pattering along. They get
more comfortable every hour. Automo
biles begin to line the curb. At 10 o'clock
they aro hnntt.1 snlldlv along tho street,
;and out of them climb fat men with
orusque manners, who fling curt oruers
io cnaurreurs, sometimes in livery.
THE MIDDAY RUSII.
Eleven Is marked by tho real rush of
'the shoppers you have been watching
ilnce 8 o'clock.
Who shall not know the noon rush? And
by studying this rush as It decreases
toward 1 o'clock, with Us undertow of
those returning to desks, ho would know
when 2 o'clock had come.
At 3 o'clock tho hanks close. You know
a It Is 3 o'clock not by the barred doors,
out by the men standing outsme oi mem
biting their finger nails and talking to
themselves.
The bank clerks and some of the stenog
raphers appear at 4 o'clock, but If you are
In doubt about them you may Ignore the
types und turn your eyes to visions of
Jaiy loveliness. Looking at them 4 and S
o'clock -will go by you so rapidly you will
never know.
By the rush that follows until Ions after
o'clcfck, however, assuming you have
not forgotten all about the tlme-telllng
teat, you will know, the hour and the min
ute. The tcrubwomen going and return
ing mark the time until the theatre-goers
H you It is nearlng 8, It is 8, and It Is
:15 o'clock. After that you must go back
Jo your first study of types until the
theatres dlsgorgo their throngs, then back
to the revelers again, and soon It is mid',
msht, and you may look at the ticket
Slven by ycur uncle everybody's uncle, to
be exact-and sttfp wishing you hadn't put
your watch away.

NO QUARTER, IS CRY
OF NO-LICENSE COURT
Montgomery County Temper
ance Forces Spring Many
Surprises in Court.
XOnniSTOW.V, Pa., March 19.-A sen
satlon was sprung In License Court to
day, when counsel for tho No-llccnso
I.enguo filed a. remonstrance against tho
Colonial Inn, of Bridgeport, tho nppllcnnt
for which (s John Dillon, a member of
Urldgoport Town Council and Itepubllcan
leader of tho borough. Dillon has con
ducted tho hotel for years and is prom
inent In Bridgeport politics. Up to this
time the Colonlnl Inn hns escaped a 10
monstrnnce. Tho ono filed was specific
It declared Dillon has sold lttiuor to p
sons of known Intempcrato habits, nam
ing them, and alleges that ho bought
empty whisky bottles from n man of
known Intemperate habits.
Thero was another furoro in court
when a witness for John Wood, appli
cant for tho Eaglo Hotel, or Pennsburg,
said that a witness who testified yester
day had told him afterward that the Hcv.
O. S. Krlcbol, Dean of Perklomcn Semi
nary, had paid him $12 to como to Norrls
town and testify for tho dry forces.
Dr. Krlcbcl, on the stand, denied abso
lutely that he paid this sum to tho wit
ness, but admitted that he paid him 1.G0
for his expenses nnd Jl.fiO for the ex
penses of his son. Dr. Kriebcl testified
also that Jerome Graff und Daniel Hlrsch,
wero both men of known teinpcrato habits
and both men hnd obtained liquor at tho
Knglo Hotel.
Lawyers, doctors and businessmen of
Pennsburg wero unanimous In their alle
gations that tho two men drank to excess.
Tho License Court elate has been shat
tered, owing to tho strenuous fight In op
position to tho Eaglo Hotel and tho Palm
Station Hotel.
Attorney "Wangcr contended that, under
tho evidence, the Eaglo Hotel had not
been properly conducted. "When question
ed by tho court why tho other two
hotels In Pennsburg were not opposed,
Mr. Wnngcr replied that tho Eaglo was
tho ono for which thcro was tho least
necessity.
A scoio of witnesses wero called by both
sides. Some of the best evidence obtained
by tho dry forces wnB from witnesses
called by the applicant.
In arguing In favor of the hotel, counsel
said that tho remonstrance against "Wood
was signed by less than EO persons, nearly
half of whom wero women, whllo tho two
petitions for a license Doro the signatures
of 222 persons, out of a voting population
of n. fow over 300.
In his own defense, John Wood, who
was charged in tho remonstranco with
being a person of known Intempcrato
habits, admitted on tho stand that he
took a "glass of beer onco In n while."
Ho denied using foul and violent lan
guage In the barroom and telling "smut
ty" stories.
PRODUCES HEGISTElt.
Ho produced his register, and upon ex
amination It was found 14 guests had reg
istered during May, June, July and Au
gust of lnst year. Wood admitted that
ho had more guests, but sold he had not
been careful to havo them register. Ho
could not tell how many of tho 14 regis
tered stayed over night. In two years ho
nerved several funeral parties. Ho dented
allowing young boys to congregate In
tho barroom, as had been testified to.
When asked why the boys como Into his
barroom at all, Wood said that ho kept
candy there.
Mrs. Wood testified that she only tended
bar when her husband wns called nway
unexpectedly. She denied using foul
language In the barroom, but said sho
did use It on ono occasion, when she
heard men In the "barroom teaching her
four-year-old girl profanity. When asked
by tho court why tho child was permitted
In the barroom, she said that she could
not keep her out; that the girl Insisted
on being with her father.
A bouquet of white carnations was on
tho desk of Attorney Wnngerof the dry
forces, when court convened, with a card
bearing this Inscription:
"For George Wanger, from the W C. T.
U., In appreciation of your efforts in the
no-llcense cause."
This afternoon will be devoted to the
hearing of Perklomen Heights Hotel, In
Upper Hanover, a case left over from
yesterday. Tho hearlng-of the Wisconsin
Hotel, in Lower Merlon, will be had
later.
"Man With Punch" Appointed

today a special Inspector in tho Depart
ment of Public Works at a salary of

'MOVIE' FIGHT MAY GO
BEFORE COURT TODAY
Film Exchange Men and Ex
hibitors to Decide on Method
of Procedure.
Tho light agaliiBt tho motion picture
censor, J. Louis Brcltingcr, may "bo takon
to court today. Film exchnngo men nnd
exhibitors of tho Stnto will meet to dc
cldo on notion against what they declare
aro Illegal nnd unjustlllablo actions of
tho censor. Tho Executive Committee of
tho Exhibitors' League met this morning
to discuss ways nnd means of combating
what they term censorial evils. The ex
change men will meet Into this nfternoon
to hear a report from a special commit
tee nppointed to consider court proceed
ings. The cntlro matter hni reached a stago
whero action will supersede the verba
battle that has been waged. Tho ox
hlbltors are furious over tho order of
tho censor that hereafter each reel shown
must bo accompanied by a ccrtlllcnto
signed by tho censor, such paper to bo
displayed In the lobby or entrance of tho
playhouse. They point out thnt there Is
nothing whatsoever concerning such
certificates In tho law under which Mr.
Breltlnger acts. This question, as well
as others, will bo threshed out In court.
George Q. Horwltz, who Is counsel for
tho motion-picture men In their light
against tho censor law, In discussing
tho constitutionality of tho act, snld:
"If you will turn to the records of tho
Supremo Court of Pennsylvania, for tho
Eastern District, nnd open at tho caso
of the Buffalo branch of tho Mutual Film
Corporation and the Mutual film Corpo
ration of Pennsylvania and lnteratnto
Films Company vs. J. Lou3 Breltlnger,
chief censor, and C. E. Ntwr, assistant
censor, constituting tho Stnto Hoard of
Censors, you will Und that among tho
facts nfllrmed by tho court uio:
"That under tho provtaloni of Scctlun -of
tho Act of Juno 10, 1011, It Is Incumbent
upon both tho censor and assistant censor
both to examine each and every film to
bo rented and exhibited In l'ymiylvanln.
"That tho defendants (thecensor and
his assistant) or none of them, have tho
right to appoint any assistants, exam
iners. Inspectors or any other person
or persons whomsoever for the purpose
of examining or passing on nny film or
films beforo or after tlie exnioiuon.
"Both of theso Instances explain nt
least In two ways how tho present cenBor
Is violating tho law. He has admitted
that ho has appointed Inspectors, whllo
one moving picture exhibitor In this city
hae said he has had as many as 15
of tho Inspectors show cards at his the
atro In ono day.
"The law has been violated In tho sec
ond way by the manner In which tho
censor and his assistant havo worked.
They havo seldom sat as a board to
censor tho pictures, while a great num
ber of releases havo not been examined,
except by assistants not provided by
law, or by tho censor who has sat as a
board by himself."
Temperance Campaign Planned
Plans for furthering the temperance
cause have been formulated by the Inter
church Federation Committee on Ab
stinence. Tho work is to be In charge
of Dr. Rufus Miller, John Wnlton nnd
J. Garden Guenther. All of the pledge
signers of the Bryan meeting last Mon
day night nre to bo asked to get at least
10 more men to sign pledgo cards, which
are now being distributed. Noonday
meetings are to bo held at various In
dustrial plants, whero the evils of In
toxicants will be shown by tho means
of Bteroptlcon pictures. Well-known

Dainty bits of Dresden china, which had

In tho presence of nugust assemblages
played a prominent part In a kitchen bnt

It's hard to mako pate-dc-folc-gras and

Then Cathnrlne, It is snld, told her em

Rev. Fredei-ick Edwards Says
Too Many Ministers Lack
Earnestness.
"When I went to hear 'Billy' Sun
day," said tho Hev. Frederick Edwards
at tho noonday Lenten service In the
Onrrlck Theatre today, "t expected to
seo an Individual In red socks Jumping
nround the platform. Instead I saw a
dapper Individual dressed In a J60 suit of
clothes. Ho looked as If he might be on
Instructor In nlhlctlcs and English nt
Orolon.
"I do not think he would get on very
well In tho average conservative church,
for his slang would not wear well. But
I ndmlro his punch nnd tho conviction
ho carries to his congregation. What we
need In tho church Is fewer ministers
who do not devote all their time to tho
scrvlco of God, but who forget some of
the time tho duties of their position nnd
play golf, or billiards, or ride In motors.
They cnrry"too much excess baggage.
"Wo should pay moro attention to tho
selection of ministers to occupy our pul
pits." REPENTANCE. LENTEN THEME
Rev. W. N. Parker Spcnks at Old St.
Paul's Church.
At tho Lenten service In Old St. Talil's
Church, on Third street below Walnut, nt
noon today, tho Jtcv. William Newman
Parker, rector of Epiphany Chapel, Sher
wood, continued his scries of addresses on
tho prayer of tho publican "God, Have
Mercy on Me, a Sinner."
"Tho publican's appeal to God to for
glvo him ihls sins was not formal," he
Enid. "Every look and motion of tho man
Indicated that ho was troubled. Ho was
ashamed to approach God and would not
,. imiMi no tire bin m-ca to Heaven, but
smoto himself on tho breast. Ills whole
attitude Indicated a broken nnd a contrite
heart. Ho was troubled not from n Bcnso
of fenr but because of sin Itself.
"nepentnnco Is something much more
than a verbal acknowledgment of what's
wrong. 'Bend your' heart nnd not your
garment thnt Is the state In which wo
are to approach God. Bcpentanco Is
mo-o thnn a fear of punishment, present
01 future. Tho crudest form of obedience
Is that Inspired by fear. A child In his
oarlv stages learns to obey his parents
partly from n fear of punishment, but
wlwn ho becomes older he obeys because
ho loves his father and mother.
"True pcnltenco Is sorrow becauso wo
havo sinned against God and broken His
laws."
SERMON AT ST. STEPHEN'S
Rev.
J. II. Melish Preaches at Lenten
Service.
Tho Ilev. John Howard Melish, speak
ing at tho noon Lenten servlco at St.
Stcphon's Church, 10th street above
Chestnut, today compared man to tho
rocks out of which a splrltunl temple
hns been built.
"Tho temple of your lives." he said,
"must be hewn of Htonc, rightly laid. If
tho stono Is laid contrary to the way It
4b found In tho quarry, It will Inevitably
disintegrate. It may tnko time beforo
tho Blow crumbling Is visible. Tho per
son whoso life Is not built on right may
appear outwardly as tho person whoso
llfo Is built on right. But tlmo will tell.
Tho rain fnlls upon tho Just nnd the
unjust, but tho unjust stono disintegrates
and the Just stono stands firm. Tho
snmo sun shines upon tho good nnd the
ovll. But the evil loses, Its strength un
der It and tho good Increases. Wo nro
not living In a hnphnzard world, but a
world or law which admits of no enprico
or favoritism."
COMFORT FOR THOSE WHO FALL
Those who fnco dally temptation and
cfttlmcs succumb were comforted and
defended today by the Itew Harry D,
Vlots, Junior curate, In tho noondny
Lcnton services In St. I'eter's Church,
at 3d an dPlno streets. Ho said: "If
wo havo patience or fnlth we already
possess the soul of tho virtue. Wo freely
Judgo our fellow men by their actions.
Yet wo must admit wo see with imperfect
senses. Wo know nothing of tho Inner
conduct. God looks beyond their nppear
nnces to tho goodness of the will. Our
moral standards are often the result of
environment, temperament, education
nnd foeedom from temptation. How
many of us woutd stnnd upright If we
wero obliged to live tho lives nnd face

children living in this clty7 God takes
Into consideration our will, our purposo
