Nancy Wynne Chats About
Known Old House in Chestnut Hill Philadelphian
Practices on Organ in "Movie" ,
WELL, after October, Chestnut Hill
will feel as If It had lost Us eye
brows or something, because the Dust
Pan Is to be torn down. Just Imagine
Chestnut Hilt without the Dint Panl
'Do you know ihe place? I'm sure
,yoave heard of It, If you don't know It.
If stands at the intersection of German
town avenue, Bethlehem pike and Sum
mit avenue is it Summit or Sunset, 1
always get them mixed? The real and
proper christened name is Maple Lawn
Inn, but it's always been called the
Dust Pan, probably on account of the
dusty location, and it always sounds
sort of familiar and affectionate.
The house is more than 200 years
old, and was originally a wayside tun
I suppose people traveled out Bethle
hem pike as. much then ns they do now,
although possibly not so fast. After
that for a time It was a .country store,
where all the people used to gather to
gossip. Perhaps that's how it came to
be so well known, because ever) body in
Chestnut Hill docs know it,
I don't believe there arc many fam
ilies that haven't stayed' theiefor u
time, while the hou.o was being done
over or something of that kind, and
ven if they haven't stayed there they
knew they could. And lots of prom
inent people liavo lived there I mean
pcoplo liko George Washington. It
probably was his hcadqunrters once,
almost every old house has been nt some
time during its long life. Wouldn't it
be funny to feel that a perfectly plain
brown-stone house may some time be
visited by people from all over the coun
try just because you once lived there?
But did I remark in passing why the
Dust Pan is to be torn down? 1 did
not. I always forget the point when
I get started on the surroundings of it.
Well, tho reason is that the room is
needed for a , trolley station, for )ou
know the trolleys up there are going
to turn around or go on up Hcthlehvm
pike or Something that they never did
before. And it may be that the pleas
ure of having an extension of the trolley
will make Chestnut Hill feel better
about losing the Dust Pan.
I HEARD such an interesting thing
about Elizabeth Casnnave the other
day. She and her mother and all her
brothers she has about five are down
in Atlantic City for the summer. Eliza
beth is very musical, and her special
talent is for the organ. She is study
ing here in town, and while she is away
she still works at it and every morning
she goes to one of the movie houses
down there and practices on perfectly
wonderful organ that is instnlled there.
She is there before the movies start,
of course, but at that time the elec
tricians and things, whatever they all
aic, are trying over the new picture
fit the afternoon, and if she cared to
look up from her work she could get
first rhot at all the new plays, but she
prcfeit to practice because she loves it
so. Her mother plajs beautifully on
the harp. The Casanaves live in Over
biook in the winter.
DO YOU know any of thoso discon
certing people who see something
amusing in a very nearby neighbor, and
turn to vou and remark auietly in a
conversational jtone, "Do you see the"
same thing I do?" and keep their faces
perfectly solemn and expect you to do
thcvsame thing? Difficult, very. There
are so many of them in the world. But,
at least, they know what you are going
through. With children it's different,
and yet so often .they cause tho same
effect.
It happened that way the other
night. Mother and Father were taking
little Mary out for a walk in the eve
ning after the sun went down, andthe
street waj a nuie cooler, one was
swinging along ahead of them (Mary's
about five), hitting every slight incline
with a little bump, and steppipg a bit
faster on the way down again, making
a very irregular affair of it, and sing
ing a merry little song of her own com
position which, was quite as jerky as
her promenade i
And then pretty soon some one ap
nrnnched k man. one of those men
triio would so obviously be taller if
there weren't so much of him on the
trround. that the only thing you can do
Is speak of it. And Mother, obeying
the impulse, remnrKed in a low tone
to Father, Just loolc at tnose tcet."
And Father merely looked his horror,
being" beyond words'. And neither of
them realized the worst.
For Mary had heard, and in an inno
cent tone, swinging her arms and halt
ing her uneven song, Bhe exclaimed just
as the man passed, "Oh, look at those
feet!"

THOMAS TROPHY DANCE
Movie Producers Going to Invade
Europe
The popularity of movie stars was
once more attested last evening at
D.inceland, Willow Grove Park, where
the final contest was held for the Olive
Thomas trophy in the "Upstairs and
Down" fox trot contest which was do
nated by Lewis J. Selzuick.
It wns the largest crowd of dance
and movie enthusiasts which ever us
sembled nt the pnrk, according to the
officials, which applauded the ery ex
cellent dancing of Miss Virginin Kervvin
and George Miller, Jr., the winners of
the event. There were n number of con
testants for the prize, nnd they fur
nished many tin ills ns they ascended
nnd dc-cndcd a number of steps which
sv mbollzcd the movie, "Upstaiis nnd
Down."
There is to be nuother Lewis Selznick
trophy given away on Thursday eve
ning at the Point Breeze Velodrome in
honor of Eugene O'ISiiui's new picture,
"The Perfect Lover." The piize will
go to the w inner of the motorpace race.
Mom- of the movie producers are en
tering the European field, and so far
the reports from the scouts have been
fnvorable to the American producer,
whose products should receive n hearty
welcome. There seems to be some fear
upon the part of some English thentre
owners that American capital will spoil
their game.

Resolution Adopted Protesting ' fi
.
Kendrick and Kenyon Bills
Now in Cbngress
At a meeting of independent nneker
In the city a resolution was passed nro
testing against the Kenyon and Ken' j?
flrlcK Dills now pending In Congress.
There were present nt the meetinj f
representntUcs from the following "
Philadelphia firms: D. B. Slnrtin Com
pnny, F. G. Vogt & Sons, George
Hnusmann & Sons, Louis Burk, J. J.
Felln & Co., Consolidated Dressed Beef
Company nnd the Produce Exchange.
A committee wns appointed to rep
resent the independent packers at the
hearings on these bills. The committee
comprises Henry Cook, Charles Har
lan, Bajnrd C. Dickinson, John J.
I'elin nnd Frank Rogers Donahue,
counsel.
The two bills provide for the estab
lishment of government operation of
the packing houses of the United States
by means of n license system. As a
result of passage of these bills, persons
engaged in the business, of slaughtering
livestock or preparing livestock prod
ucts for sale will be compelled to sell
nnd dispose of within two years any
stockyards or interest therein owned by
them. The hills also provide for the
prevention of those engnged in livestock
business from participation in any other
business or in the sale or manufacture
of any other foodstuffs.
Independent packers believe passage
of the bills will hamper efficient opera
tion of their business, increase the cost
of commodities to the public and per
mit an "unwarranted nnd unprece
dented interference" in n business in
which independent packers are legally
engaged.
