MANY MANUFACTURERS
FAVOR PROGRESS DAY
Heartily Approve Plan Which
Will Enable City to Show
What It Makes and Sells.
The plait for a Progres Hay July 7,
when "made In Philadelphia" products
can he shown to the thousands of people
who will attend the national Fourth of
July celebration, has met with wlda
spread approval. Manufacturers In all
parts of the city, whoso goods are known
In households and business establish
ments ln many countries, nio heartily
In favor of the step which will enablo
this city to show the country what It
makes and sells.
Many approved of the suggestion to
have the Liberty Hell precede the Indus
trial pageant, nnd expremed the hope
that Councils' Fourth of July Committee
would Indorse this plan.
Common Councilman John It. tlalzley.
chairman of Councils Committee. Is
strongly In favor of tho event, nnd said
that it would afford manufacturers of all
Kinds nn opportunity to show their warea
lo the country.
"It would not onlj. awnken interest In
Philadelphia products generally." he said,
"but would also give an Impetus to busi
ness and revive that feeling of optimism
which Is essential to prosperity. I will
place tht matter before Councils Commit
tee nt its very first meeting."
Among the concerns which have prom
ised hearty co-operation In the demon
stration Is the Cunningham Piano Com
pany. "Tills Is Just what Philadelphia
needs," said P. J. Cunningham, "and I
think such a demonstration would re
dound to the benefit of nil. Wo shall be
very glnd to place an exhibit In the pa
geant In keeping with our line of busi
ness, and I think If all the city's manu
facturers would do tho same they would
leap good results. Throughout the coun
try theie is an impetus to business gen
citillj, nnd It is time for all to rnlly to
gether nnd show what Philadelphia con
tributes to the general progress."
The same sentiment was expressed by
tho Autocar Company, whose motor
trucks, manufactured ln this city, are
used all over the country. Olllcials of the
company declared that the concern coulu
be counted upon to co-operate In every
way for the success of the demonstration
and paid that the company would have
an exhibit In the pageant which would
depict tho progress of motive power up
to tho present time.
Arnold Louchheim & Co., clothing man
ufacturers, whose product has n, national
Held, nls'o will be In line. Joseph Loucn
hcim snid: "The plan meets with our em
phatic approval and we will, do every
thing possible to mako It a success. Jt
Is an opportunity to awaken enthusiasm
and will make for progress. Phillip Ai
nold, another member of the tlrui. said:
"Wo will arrange to have an exhibit ln
tho page.mt and will place the matter
before the Wholesale Clothing Manufac
turers' Association at its next meeting
and ask the organization's co-operation. '
It Is expected that action will be taken
by the Legislature this week on tho Dunn
bill, which provides for nn appropriation
of $10,000 for the national i ourth cele
bration. It I believed that Councils will
appropriate at least nn equal amount.
KENSINGTON COPS WORRIED
Imaginary Epidemic of Erysipelas
Gives Them a Scare.
An Imaginary epidemic of erysipelas has
broken out at the Relgrade and Clearlleld
streets police station, following the ar
test yesterday of a woman suffering with
the disease. The woman. Kate Devlin.
213 Knst Cambria street, was behoved to
be drunk when found at Williams and
Amber street but when the nature of her
ailment was realized she was sent to the
Philadelphia Hospital, while the patrol
wagon and cell which she oocupled were
fumigated and precautions taken by the
men who had come In contact with her.
Tho Incident was forgotten until this
morning, when Patrolman Louis Harper,
one of the district huskies, who weighs
325 pounds, complained of a headache nnd
that he w,is otherwise "feeling funny."
"I believe I got erysipelas," ho said. A
moment later the same apprehension was
expressed bv Sergeant Cook, of the patrol,
and his assistant, John McFarland. Other
members of the force then subjected
themselves to an examination, closely
icrutlnlzing their skin for signs of erup
tions and catechizing themselves. House
Sergeant Malone finally became alarmed
nnd sent for Dr. William Zelgler, who
had charge of the case, but even, the lat
ter's assurance that nothing wis wrong
failed to abate the fears of the men, and
a state of anxiety persists In the entire
neighborhood.
WHEN COHEN MEETS COHEN

A tremendous battle wns raging. Kleid
guns were blazing, great shells were
bursting over the Uttered field of enr
tiago nnd smoke filled the nlr. Then came
nn Interruption.
"Wlintdnyoumean, sliootlnK my coat
tnll that way?" demanded n dare-devil
private, censing business to confront
one of the enemy.
"Keep you coattnll nlltcr the wnv
then," letortcd the other contemptu
ously. " 'S that so?" sold the Ilrst, dropping
his gun and swinging at the enemy's
Jaw with his tiusty right.
Then they mixed.
Far up tho lino wns heard n howl of
rage. The commander-in-chief, red in
the face- nnd terrible In (low nf language,
ranted, danced In wrath and visited vitu
perations upon tho belligerents, for grim
biittlo hnd censed while both sides
watched the fistic action wlt'n high glee.
Incidentally tho h'ellg camera hud
stopped In the middle of the climax
scene of "Tho Hideous CSod. War," for
no battle, houexir strenuous, could lm
pres an audience with two of the enemy
clinched like two Kilkenny cats on a
back fence.
After the two offending extrn men had
been fjectcd from the Held and Director
H. A, Martin had used up nil the ndlei
tlvcs In fiif hook nnd his own repertolie.
the entire battle scene had to he made
again.
Klclnc to Film Popular Plnys
Negotiations hnvo been completed be
tween Oeorge Klelnc nnd several well
known New York playwrights lo lllm .
long list nf popular plays this year. Fif
teen of Owen Davis" comedies nnd dramas
have been acquired, Including his "Tho
Sentimental Lady," "An Kveryday Mnn,"
"Tho Inheritance." "Tho Jack of Spades,"
"What Might Hae Hecn, I'ho Woman
Next Door," "Ileggars on Horseback."
"When the Shadows Fall," "Tho L'nwcl
como Ouest," "The Oreen Cloak." "Cupid
nnd Mr. Jordan," "The Chest of Hold,"
"Queen of Poverty Flats," "Among thn
Poor," "The Mnn Higher Up."
"Tho best guarantee of a successful
picture 13 a successful play." said Mr.
Klelno In discussing his plans, "t have
always favored the play as against the
novel for picture purposes. Any play that
stands tho grind of the circuits for sev
eral seasons Is n sure success In lllm. It
must have plot and heait interest, and Is
not so dependent as the novel upon
language and Its nuthnr's name I think
wo demonstiated that very clearly In 'Du
Harry,' 'Ofllcer KV nnd "Stop Thief.'
Knch one of those was brimful of action
and each had shown Its entertaining
powers long before It wns (limed. Furthor
ermoro, n successful play Is more widely
advertised and better known to tho
masses than a novel of corresponding
merit, which makes It a better drawing
card for exhibitors."

fJeclaro Business Has Been Wiped

The Philadelphia Itapld Transit Com'
pany, by removing trolley cars from

the business of that section, according to
I a complaint ngalnst the company which Is
to no su-omiiteci to tne ."Mate l'unuc serv

fallen and merchants, hnvlng lost the
bulk of their business, arc moving anny,
It Is alleged. The reult Is that Front

a residential rnther than a business sec
tion. ln connection xvlth Its fight before the
commission, tho association, which Is
represented by Isaac S. tJrnssmnn, Is
preparing to subsidize six Jitneys. These
cars, .according to arrangements under

It Is hoped to bring bnck traffic which
has been lost since tho transit company
rerouted Its cars.

Tho fair maiden of ancient Greece, how

Every Hup Owner a Hupmobile Salesman
A car's reputation depends upon the consensus of
opinion of its owners, because they know the car best.
The people who know the Hup best are the best Hup
mobile salesmen.
Almost every Hup owner will tell you
"I bought a Hupmobile because of its reputation for consistent and
satisfactory service. i, v
"The non-stallable motor gives mo a feeling of safety in all kinds of
traffic, It's the most economical and most dependable car I know. luet
more than 18 miles to a, gallon of gasoline. I have less tire trouble than those
who drive other cars. I have had no repair bills or expensive adjustments in
thousands of miles of Hupmobiling, I could not get equal satisfaction hm
any other car on the market."
Hup demonstrations are briefs of all-year-'round Hupmobiling-. $
