BURGLARS REVEL
IN LEWIS HOME
Residence of Army Officer
Looted During Family's
Absence
RARE SILVER STOLEN
Thieves stole $1000 worth of clothing,
Oliver, tabic linens and fine liquors from
tho home of Mrs. Daud Iwla, 26 South
Twenty-necond street, while tho house
was closed during Major David Lewis's
absence in tho army.
The theft was discovered by Mrs.
Lewis Thursday, when she went to her
home to show a friend through it
While Major Lewis was away the house
was closed and Mrs. Lewis was living
at the Lincoln Apartments, Thirteenth
and Locust streets. MJor Lewis has
Just returned from the service in the
army .
So far no arrests hae been made. The
theft was reported to the police late
Thursday. Mrs. Lewis waited several
hours after discovering it, In an effort to
get in touch with her husband before
she called in the police.
The thlees left the house In a state
of great confusion. They evidently took
their time about the robbery: going Into
every room, and Benrclflng every possible
hiding place for valuables.
Mrs. Lewis found the contents of
bureau drawers scattered over" the floors
of the 'bedrooms; trunks forced open
and clothing strewn eeryuherc; even a
phonograph smashed in the searcli for
aluables.
Among the articles taken were a
number of pieces of Sheffield Bllver, Mrs.
Lewis's whole collection. Other large
and small pieces of silverware were
stolen.
Two overcoats, three suits of clothes
and half a dozen pairs of shoes were
carried off by the thlees. From the
linen closet they took fine tablo linen,
tablecloths und napkins. Tho wine
closet was broken open and u quantity
of fine liquors taken.
There was nothing, to Indicate v. hen
the theft took place. Apparently the
thiees had forced their way into the
house by prying open a shutter In the
back kitchen.

TYPHOID ALLEGATIONS
SURPRISE DR. NORMS
Vaccination Not Absolute Im
munity as Army Men Be
lieved, Colonel Here Says
Surprise was expressed oer charges
concerning typhoid fever In the Ameri
can Expeditionary Forces today by Col
onel George W. Norrls, noted medical
authority.
He was consultant on General Persh
ing's staff during tho war. The charges
are contained In a bulletin Issued by the
public henlth service In Washington.
Colonel Norrls spent eighteen months
In France, remaining there until after
the armistice was. signed. Ho went
oer, with the runic of major, as medi
cal officer of the Pennsylvania Hospi
tal Base Unit No. 10. Later he was
called to army headquarters nnd nttach
ed to the staff as a consultant.
My experience did not lead me to
believe that there was a large amount since Mr. Kendrlck Is proud of his gifts
of tj phold In the army," said Colonel and frequently displays them nt the re
N"'s' I quest of friends. The collection In-
'The report says that typhoid was, eludes a Lu Lu. emblem made up. solidly
heavy after Chatcau-Thlerry. I was 0f diamonds and presented by "Buffalo
not there, but I, talked to arlous men um
wno wye. ah are agreed mat tne luin
nnd flies were terrible. These condi
tions could not be avoided
and perhaps
In part explain thn spread of typhoid.
I cannot say from my own observa
tion that thero was carelessness on tho
part of tho medical men. Of course,
thero may hne been individual Instances
of carelessness, and I have no doubt
thero were.
"I Baw more cases of tj phold In the
British than in the American army. This
Is explainable because, vaccination was
merely optional with the British, while
It was compulsory with us.
"The army's experience on the Mexi
can border led medical men to believe
that vaccination gave a largo degree of
Immunity from the disease, so largo a
degree of immunity that It would re
quire a very virulent Infection, such as
from a badiv polluted well, to give a
man the dlsenso. ;Every one lecognlzes,
however, that tne immunity given by
typhoid vaccine is not absolute In the
sense that smallpox vaccination Im
munity Is absolute."
The report Issued by the public health
service ascribed to; the surgeon general
of the expeditionary force the charge
that there had been many epidemics of
Uphold and paratj phold among the
troops, especially In the last months of
the war, and that medical otlicers had
been grossly careless' In preventing the
development and spread of the disease.
SHORE RATES DOWN MONDAY
Fares to Other Resorts May Be
Cut Later On
Cape May, Wlldwood, Wllduood Crest
and Anglesea will hae jear-round tour
ist rates of J3.50 a round trip beginning
next Monday.
This was announced officially by li. J.
De Long, assistant general passenger
agent of the Pennsylxanla Railroad. The
order was telephoned to Broad Street
Station by C. M. Burt, chairman of the
general passenger traffic committee of
tho eastern territory of tho United
States railroad administration.
The same order contained the infor
mation that the extension of the j car
round tourist rales to Ocean City. Sea
Isle City and Stone Harbor Is still under
consideration. It in understood, how
ever, that the privileges will be extended
to these resorts within the next week.
The order grows out of cumpiuints of
discrimination made to the United States
railroad administration by a committee
representing all the South Jersey sbore
resorts.

PRICELESS MASONIC JEWELS
Diamond-Studded Lodge Emblem Collection Lochcd in City Hall
Safe Whch Robbers Secured $1500 in Other Personal
Property at Home of Tax Receiver
Diamond-studded Masonic emblems
worth a small fortune escaped thieves
wh; looted the homo of Receiver of
Taxes W. Frecland Kendrlck, for the
reason that Mr. Kendrlck keeps his col
lection In his safe at City Hall.
A desire to obtain tho diamonds mak
ing up pins and emblems that hae
been presented to Mr. Kendrlck during
his occupancy of various Masonic posi
tions Is believed to hae actuated the
thieves In breaking Into his home ,at
1120 Duncannon aenue, Logan.
The Kendrlck home Is next door to the
dwelling of Superintendent of Police
Robinson, who lives at 1127 Duncannon
avenue.
The Kendrlck collection Is well known,
Some of the emblems aro so heavily
laden with precious jewels as to pre
clude their being worn with any degree
of comfort. Should the register array

Institutionalize
The very latest thing is "institutional advertising."
It is even gaining in favor over "merchandising" as a
word with which to conjure.
Institutions are not created offhand, even with the
copious use of printers' ink.
You remember Noovo Reech Porkbar who patron
izingly asked the English gardner how he got such
excellent turf "Oh we rolls it and we brushes it for,
say two hundred years, and there you are, sir!" was
the reply.
The reasons that underlie a great business success
usually furnish the best material-for its advertising.
Colgate is great because of the recognition by the
public of quality and service, and not because the
house was founded in 1806.
The house of great accomplishment is usually so
intent on greater conquests that it avoids the seduc
tion of "Board of Directors' copy."
With1 quality service and time any advertised
product will make of its maker, an institution.
Advtrtuinz space in the Butterick publications
is for sale by accredited advertising agencies.
