Tho firemen of Philadelphia must be pro
vided for In tho ahnpa of Increased salaries
and better working conditions, declaro sov
era! members of Councils. This provision
may be made In tho disposition of tho esti
mated revenuo under an Increased tax rats
or assurance bo made that, beginning with
the first of tho now year, direct appropria
tion for the firemen bo recommended by the
finance Commltteo nnd approved by Coun
cils. This la the declaration mado today by
councllmanlc champions of the clty'a pro
tectors, who assert that otherwise the tax
rate moaauro for 1917, whether Increased or
stationary, will bo opposed by them.
These Councilman, like thousands of
ether citizens now Interested In tho fire
men's cause, admit that, until public nglta
tlon on the firemen's behalf was Instituted,
they were unawnro of the true conditions
existing In tho Bureau of Fire. Now that
they have been Informed of the urgent ne
cessity and Justlco of proper recognition of
the firemen, theso Councllmen, In common
with clvlo bodies and business men gener
ally, ara willing to agres that there shall
be no change In the tax rata unless tho first
beneficiaries under the additional revenuo
are the men who have labored silently and
patiently, whlla every other branch of the
elty government was aided to keep abreast
with modern Ideas and a living wago In
keeping with tho services performed.
WOMEN UnCJB HELP
Added to the forces supporting the causo
of the firemen today Is the Influenco of the
Clvlo Club Sirs. Edward Diddle, tho presi
dent of tho club had been out of the city
for several days. Sho returned yesterday
and with several other members of the or
ganization, listened with surprise and ex
pressed Indignation nt tho revelation of
conditions within tho Bureau of Fire as
they were explained to her by represent
atives of the firemen themselves and tho
citizens' commltteo which Is espousing their
cause.
The women wore amazed to learn that
the existing regulations made It impossible
to man the various engine nnd truck com
panies throughout tho city with anything
like a proper complement of men, that
theso men were obliged to bo on duty at
their stations twenty-ono hours out of each
twenty-four, nnd that tho meal hour nlloW
ance made It Impossible for some of tho
firemen to reach their homes more than
' once a day, or at best, to enjoy but twenty
minutes for each meal If permitted to go
home threiTtlmes In each twenty-four hours.
The fact that the firemen nro obliged to
natch what sleep they get while fully
clothed and frequently nro called to duty
ten or a dozen times In a single night were
other Instances of tho system which the
club members declared to bo Intolerable In
a modern American city. They promised to
make a personal visitation to the firo sta
tions In n few days nnd to take ncllon with
the municipal authorities nnd to bring what
pressure they could command to alleviate
tho situation.
PLAN FOn BETTERMENT
Several members of Council?,' while not
caring1 to.plnco themselves on record at this
time, have expressed themselves as heartily
In favor of the firemen and to Join In the
Widening movement for their betterment ns
soon as tho tnx-rnto problem Is disposed of.
It Is pointed out that as far back as 1911
n ordinance was Introduced Into Councils
and waa-passed nt that time, appointing 300
additional men. This measure, although
till on tho municipal statute books, has
never been cnrrled out,
Tho funds required for Balarles were pro
vided at tho time, but, on account of the
failure to appoint tho extra men, was
merged nt the end of the fiscal year. Again
In 1912 n similar measure and appropria
tion bill went through Councils, but. ay In
the previous Instance, no action In the
matter of appointment again permitted the
Tavfnr.

KITTY CHEATHAM RECOEDS '
.DELIGHTFUL .FOR CHILDREN
Charming Entertainer, Coming Here Saturday, !Makes
Diverting Disks for Juveniles Other Offerings
for Boys and Girls
ny the rhonoftrnph Editor
Announcement of tha mmlne nt vfiiiv
Cheatham la like a preliminary nnd de
llRhtful Christmas celebration. This artlt,
with her subtle and never-falling appeal to
children and irrown-ups elmutnneousty.
never bores, never recites or sinus uninter
esting numbers: always has something up
her capacious sleeve which will cauVo a.
chuckle or a tear from any boy or girl
with ths allghtest appreciation of comedy or
pathoa.
T!.?rs ,a U'uatly a houseful of eager and
Intelligent kids when Mlas Cheatham np.
peara. and she takes good enre that they
nil go home with pleasant memories of her
selections, which she culls from tho best
sources In music and narrative. Unuatly
this "dlssuse" chooses the Academy of Mualo
for her recitals! ah has done many a d.
verting ami memorable thing there. This
week she Is coming to Wltherspoon Hall
on next Baturdny afternoon, to be exact
and her coming brings up tha toplo of ree
orda for Juvenile audiences.
There Is a. lot of these, too. The litera
ture of boyhood and girlhood, ns disclosed
by the catalogs, explains partly why this
sort of entertainment the phonograph Is
so universally beloved. And Miss Cheat
ham, admirable performer that she Is, Is
far from hating n monopoly on the sub
ject. There are any number of disks suited
to the nursery repertory turned out by all
the manufacturers. Consideration of them
la made doubly Important by the fact that
holiday times are drawing near. Thanks
giving and Christmas should be borne In
mind, especially, for appropriate records
celebrating these two pre-eminent children's
eents are easily found and make capital
gifts.
Only recently Mlsi Cheatham made sev
eral fine records for the Victor. 8he Is In
variably happy In her selection and Inter
pretation of southern darky melodies, nnd
tvf of theso, combined on Record No. 1,
both deal with the land of cotton In a way
that will probably please sons nnd daugh
ters both. Tor slightly younger auditors,
those not et out of tho sugar-plum nnd
doll-baby stage, No 2 will bo fpund accept
able. This collection of rhymes has tho
charm of simplicity and qualntness No. 3
will provide entertainment for those kiddles
who like the old favorite hymn tunes,
crooned many n time by mammies to their
little charges In Alabam' nnd deorgla.
Columbia offers nil aorta of records In
line with those mentioned nboe No, 4
tells n pretty Yulotlde story (It Is n talking
record) with a gingerbread conceit on tho
other side. No, 5 combines two subjects
which children always loe animals and
fairies.
Childhood music finds Interesting ex
pression In No. 6. Little folks develop a
tnste for melody extremely early when they
nro given half a chance Such a chance
la offered In No , where a miniature sym
phony Is played with effect, with a de
scriptive specialty on tha reverse side
No. 7 Is n familiar piece, containing the
brisk and merry Haydn symphony.
An entirely different school of children's
records Is represented In Nos 8, 9 and 10.
Mr. Davenport, a 1'hllndelphlan. by the
way, gives a well-spoken recitation of 'Whit
tier's famous eraes. 'Tho Charge of the
Light Urlgade" would be a good addition
to a boy's collection. For youngsters old
enough to appreciate Mark Twain, No. 9
Is an excellent choice, while the Riley selec
tions mentioned In the guide wilt amuse
almost any child.
No 11 la a plr.un.nt combination of musi
cal pieces produced by Edison. There are

Plckford approves of It
The Ingenue-star of "la Than the
Dust." which, by tho way, will bo shown
tonight at the Oreat Northern Theater,
Uroad street and Krle nvenue, nt Its re
opening, feels "Pollyannn" about tha aerial

"adoration notes" that much tho quicker.
Miss Plckford receives about tOO such let
ters n day, her press agent ner, nnd "any
thing faster than the smoky old trains"
has her approval.
Already assigned to n permanent place
In her archives nro a special delivery letter
and three postcards post marked 6 a. m.
In Chicago and recehed by her before
noon ine next nay. The lette was from
the students of the University of Chicago,
Inxlttng her to be their guests during tha
winter whenever she found It convenient
to visit Chicago. Aa Mary had n. "beautiful
time" with the summer students nt the
university n few months ago, sho expects
to accept the Invltntlon Tno editors who
always favor news of Mary Plckford In
their departments sent cordial greetings,
nnd tho management of n big theater pre
dicted that, '!, as Than the Dust" would
bo tho biggest winner of tho season.
Speaking of tho Great Northern, tho "alt
dlenco" that assembles tonight at Its re

motle producers undergo. The recent cloud

delivery department worked all night to distribute these machines.
But last year we were very fortunate to secure enough Victrolas
to supply every order.
All possible disappointment can be avoided if you place your
order with us now; we will then reserve for you a Victrola of the
type you want
t We will deliver any style of Victrola, all delivery charges pre
paid, to any point in the United States.
Settlement may be made by cash, or charge, or rental lease.

Thanksgiving at Grandma's
with the rollicking fun that came after the pumpkin
pie and other goodies had disappeared, was a day
you still remember. The magic of the
EDISON DD?.cnd Phonosranh
will enable you to live again in memory the good old days vthen
every goose wns a swan lad ond every lass a queen. You and
your guests will be thrilled by
music's Re-creation
For the Edison is the only instrument that actually re-creates
the living voice of the singer, the subtle tones of the violin and the'
sweeping grandeur of band or orchestra.
We cordially invite you to attend our daily concerts and hear
your favorite selections. You will be under no obligation.

IS SOMETHING MORE THAN S
MCKfc. lUINfc REPRODUCTION "
Artificial tone reproduction is wonderful indeed,
lint it is not musical. A beautiful voice that is
marred by mechanical timber in its reproduction is '
no longer beautiful.
Wherever good musicjis understood in homes
where art is appreciated there you will find the
Edison D,DiTd Phonograph
No NetdltM to Chang t Indttlruelibla Accords
Come and hear this wonderful instrument and you will understand
why the Edison is the first choice of those who want the best.
