lANCASTEIt, Pa... Oct SI. At this
mornlng'H closing session of the conference
of social welfare Judge Charles L. Urown.
of the Municipal Court, of Philadelphia, said
this State had been fortunate In having: a
founder like Penn, but the people of today
should watch the character of legislation at
Ilarrlaburg so that Penn's principles aro not
violated. Much unhapplneas Is caused by
the failure of the probationary arm of the
law to Investigate the real cause for di
vorces, whloh la one of the creatcst evils
of the land.
Pittsburgh waa chosen aa tho next meet
ing place.
Judge William H. May, of Pittsburgh,
was elected president.
The other principal" speakers were Mrs.
Jane Deater Reppln, supervising probaton
oftlcir of the Municipal Court of Philadel

"President Wilson made a move in the
right direction when he told Jeremiah
O'Leary, of the New York bureau of the

"American flags are scarce In Berlin to

and Stripes in the mire. Last Fourth of
July Charles Mueller, a! so-called Ameri

Caffrey Says

ally Items of Advice
TON'T be a girl; be a man."
L' There, Mra. Itouaewlfe, In a nutshell
li the advice of n groceryman, bred In the
business through three generations, when
raked by the Kvenind Lkdokr what he
M)uld recommend to the housekeeper as a
rtmedy for her constantly growing house
hold expenso bills.
Physically Impossible, of course, but vir
tually simple enough, If you accept the ad
vice In the sense nnd spirit of the giver.
Tin- latter, by tho way, li Francis J. McCaf
frey, secretary nnd treasurer of the firm
of James A. McCaffrey A Sons, Int. at 4007
Market street. Tho more was established In
18JC by Mr McCaffrey's grandfather and
he himself was born, as he expresses It, "bo
hind the counter."
So wnen he speaks to you, Mrs. House
wife, It Is with the wisdom gleaned from
those ninety years' residence of hts fnmlly
Ir your neighborhood. But bear In mind
from tho ery outset that he Is not using
the language of caviling age, for Mr, Mc
Caffrey Is far from old In yenrs or Ideas:
Neither Is he singling out his own custom
cm In the application.
You may live on llltlenhouse square or In
apartments In one of the many palatial
houses that are converting sections of West
Philadelphia Into n local Central Park West.
Again, you may bo Juat settling down to
"love In a cottage" with much of the wed
ding rice shower still clinging to the rugs
and furniture: or again, you may be n
icildent of nny part of tho v Ido-sprcadlng
and rapidly growing city.
GOOD ADVICE FOB. ALL
But whoover you are and wherever you
may bo striving with your husband and
family to make home a place of happiness
nnd your table well stocked, and all within
your Income, Mr. McCaffrey's words aro for
you as well as tho representnttvo of tho
I'vknino Ledoeu to whom ho addressed
tlitm.
"Don't bo a girl ; bo a man. That's what
I Tell my daughter, who ta about to be
married, and that la what I would say to
etery woman who would ask my advlco
on how to make the cost of living cheaper
In snlto of the present high prices of food.
"If the women of today would only use
tho same mcthodB In their household affairs
aa their husbands do In their business, or I
am compelled to do in mine, they would find
a saving In expense that would be as aur
pilplng ns It would bo profitable. And their
grocers, too, would profit more, even If tho
gloss sales were less.
"But they won't," Mr, McCaffrey mused,
women and do not look upon things In
'They won't. Maybe It's because they aro
the samo way that men do. Anyhow, they
don't, and that Is why. If they onty knew
nnd realized It, that their grocery bills
and household 'expenses aro going up.
There's one of tho secrets of the high cost
of living that monopolists and 'food corners'
have nothing to do with and cannot con
trol. "The women simply take too much for
granted. They don't know what they are
getting. They think they do, but they do
not. They are paying for things that they
should not pay for, Just because they do
not use the proper Intelligence In buying.
Many of them never look on the package
where tho weight of the contents ta printed
to see what quantity they are getting. It
would startle some of them If they did.
It Isn't the fault of tho manufacturer or
the grocer, Tho law requires tha niaker
of package goods to label every onafwlth
the exact net weight or capacity Tha
woman may know It Is there, but she
doesn't stop to think whether that weight
Is a nound or only four or five ounces. It
looks like a pound, so sho takes It for
granted It Is a pound.
Q IVES A DEMONSTRATION
"Look here," Mr. McCafTroy tore open
a packngeof washing powder. Ho poured
the contrtfTS on a scale, showing an actual
weight slightly In excess of Ave ounces.
He held up the empty box. It was stamped
flvo ounces.
"Thero ia no fraud there," he said. "That
package contains Just What It Is supposed
to contain. It sells at ten cents, and Is
In great demand. Three of those packages
would weight about a pound. That would
cost thirty cents. A bar of soap of the
same weight sells at five to seven and a
half cents. Yet we sell far mora of those
packages than we do of the soap. The
difference Is In tho more convenient form
In which It Is prepared; but would a man
pay thirty cents for a pound of five-cent
soap, or twenty-flvo cents for the little
labor-saving Involved?
"Now, again, here Is a coffee prepara
tion, stamped thirty-three grama to the
package, which costs thirty cents. Does
the woman And out how much that meanaT
That package welgha two ounces, one
eighth of a pound. She pays at the rate

women pay It, because the l6ose packing

"If tho women would come here and do
their own buying, we could tell them many
of these things, that would bo to their profit,
llut they don't. Tho clasa I mean Is tha
which lives In apartments or who does the
ordering through a solicitor or by tele
phone. Of course, they find It much easier
that wny, but It is far more expensive.
They call us up, give an order to the cash
ier, who turns It over to a clerk, and often
they ask immediate delivery, which may
mean n special trip by automobile. Then,
If It Is a charge account, there Is the book
keeping expense. All of these Items cost
money. In wages nnd equipment, and the
customer must pay for them.
SOMETIMES DEALEU LOSES
"Oftentimes these orders actually cause
us to loso money. Hero Is a specimen. A
woman orders five pounds of sugar nnd a
leaf of bread. There Is no profit what
ever In tho BUgar nnd about ono cent tn the
bread. It coifts Ave cents for tho handling
and dollvcry, so you see how sometimes our
business is not all profit
"If the women today would deal with
their grocer In a business way be a man.
In other words It would be more profitable
all around, and go far to bring down the
cost of housekeeping.
"Tho Ideal customer Is tho woman who
goes to' tho store herself, sees what she
wairta and buys It ns It Is weighed out In
fiont of her, pays the price In cash and
then, wherever possible, carries Its home.
If my trade was of this sort or even tho
greater part of it I would make more monoy
and my customers would get more satisfac
tion and could live much more cheaply. But
remember, I am not talking about my cus
tomers; I am talking of tho women who
deal elsewheVe."
