lfrSt Philadelphia Magistrate
' Has Badges and Trophies o
Many Campaigns
A collection of ulna. badres. ribbons and
liaga uoh At have always adorned tlift
lapeta of good rtepubllcAtia In ths week
tmctdlng lotl6n day la a prlned os
Mslort of Magistrate William J. Harris.
KVer sine tha "JUdfra" bcama politically
ftctlva thlrty.flvo years atro, tha collection
bf bmblemt and lnalgnla of Ma party baa
been his hobby.
In tha glass cn which hangs In hla
elite at S72 Market street ara to be found
Mementos of the Hayea-Tllden campaign !
faded ribbons bearing tho names of Me
Kinley, Hobart, Rooievelt, Tatt, former
Governor Stone, Senator Qitay, Philander
C. Kno, former Mayors "Weaver and Itey
burn and other Itepubllcan standard
bearers. Tha case contains a memorial to every
An tt tho Itepubllcan conventions to which
Magistrate Harris haa been a delegate.
s" Pictures of Itepubllcan candidates for
Rational, State or municipal ofllce look
down Upon the crowds which have business
very day with the busiest Magistrate In
Philadelphia,
"mien showing his trophies to friends
the "Judge" generally lingers a little longer
evir" the badges he wbre aa a supporter of
State Senator Edward S, i'atten, his bosom
.ft-lend and political ally In the TWenty-He-renth
Ward.
It Would be dintcult to find a briefer yet
wore satisfactory summary of the fortunes
of the Itepubllcan party during tho last
throo decades than that which may be
gathered from the Magistrate's trophy case.
It la remarkable that thero Is no badge In
the collection which haa not been worn
officially by tho collector.
The Illness of Magistrate Harris has
necessitated the postponement of a llttlo
'ceremony which takes place annually In
Ills office.
In November aftor election, when the win
ners havo been announced,, tho case Is
opened and tho latest additions are mado
to the collection, which at the present time
totals seventy-six pieces. The Judge makes
this the occasion for recounting to his
Irlthda tha choicest oft his political x
perlences. An odd feature of the collection Is the
absence of any picture of the "Judge" or
t elia of his own campaigns, although he has
been three times a successful candidate
for election to the, magistracy.

COUNTRY FACES SERIOUS SHORTAGE

$100,000 Plant at Wayne Junction
Tha American Metal Works haa pur.

(100,000 n tract of about four nnd a halt
acres, extending from Jtocltlnnd to Lou
den street and from Stcnton avenuo to the
Heading Hallway, near Wayne Junction.
Tho ground was sold by Olyndon Priest
man for 451,000, for tho estate of Alfred
Smith to UonJamlri'H. CJordon, who has
convoyed It to tho American Metal Works.
It's no use. There JuAt aren't enough
blue-eyed, golden-haired girl bablea to go
around.
New" Tork Is searching for such babies.
Pittsburgh Is searching for them. Charf
table workers In that city say they could
use fifteen a week, or nearly 700 a year, If
they could get them.
Investigation shows that Philadelphia Is
In tho same class. It has not enough golden
haired, blue-eyed baby glrla to go around,
either.
Mrs. C. V. Shuman, superintendent of the
application department of the Children s
Aid, tie South Fifteenth street, says thero
aro more than 100 Philadelphia people's
names on the waiting list now, hoping they
can find tho desired baby.
"You nsk If we can help Pittsburgh out
and send somo blue-eyed, golden-haired
baby girls there," said Mrs. Shuman. "No
Indeed. We can't BUpply our own city's
demand. We can't think of helping Pitts
burgh until we can supply our own people,
Wo can't spare a single baby here. The
trouble la that so many of the children we
get havo 'strings to them' and cannot be
legally adopted, and people are all partial to
tho girl baby and the girl with tho blue eyes
and golden hair.
"By strings to them, I mean that the
parents are not willing to give them up, or
thoro Is some reason, physical or mental,
that tho children are not realy desirable
for adoption."
The recorda for this year are not availa
ble, but during tho Inst year, January,
1915, to December, 1016, tho Children's Aid
handled 2400 chl'drcn. Of this number, but
thirty-four wero over legally adopted. Of
that number, 1174 were placed In the coun

while undergoing dental and medical treat

During that time 1444 boys wero received,
