THE Ooorite t'nekards have certainly

does' know how to entertain! Her
parents, the William Oaner Welder

and ended up nt the Central Y. M. t
A., where they had a swim in the pool,
eats provided by Ihe Y., and a splendid
vaudeville entertainment given by the

It wot ono of the largest parties Mr.

milE Dunnlugs had a house party overly """ ' "" "ukc '" "i'
A the week-end and Labor Day at
their cottage at Hay Head. Have you
ever been down there? It's n perfectly
great place. The sailing is so fine, be
cause jqu have Harnegat bay on ouc
side and tho ocean on the other. The
bathing is n bit rough, but then iCa
often smooth nnd old Friend Ocean is
apt to carry on, on any part of tho
coast, is he not? I.iv Kiddle was at
the Diamines. You know Nancy Dun
ning is coining out next year und
Eleanor, though not of the debutante
age, is as attractive as she can be,
too, so there arc always good times in
that family. Eiv Hiddle and Jack
"Whclcn motored from Chelsea to Cape
May and then I.iv went on back to
Bay Head to the Dunnings, while Jack
stopped off nt Chelsea, where his
mother, Mrs. 'William Allison, is
upending the summer. Hoth Llv nnfl
Jack go back to IMncefon next mouth.
MOTHER was very young, you see,
and she did love her small boy and
girl awfully much. So much, in fact,
that it wan sometimes a misguided
love nnd little naughtinesses were al
lowed to ptus because it hurt Mother
to punish them.
She was pretty weak, too, I'm afraid
for very often there were threats which
were not carried out. And she was
eueh a good play-fellow it was hard to
obey her.
However, one afternoon Junior was
so naughty that mother could not let
things go any further. She simply had
to correct him nnd pretty severely at
that. Finnlly she said, "Junior,
Mother cannot nljow ou to disobey her
like this, you force her to punish you ;
come up stairs."
Auntie, who was in the next room,
heard some loud yells of protestation
and the sound of a slipper wcll-wlelded
wa nso to .be discerned. Then a
silence for a minute, broken by aston
ished and Indignant sobs while n small
Yolco said in no low tones, "All tho
children's mothers I know arc fat and
an havtf gruy. hair an' n'evtry
thin' nnd you'ic only n girl."
Poor Junior! If only Mother had
been a bit older he'd have been lew
humiliated. NANCY WYNNE.

Capital Punishment for Looters
To the Kclitor of ihe Kitnlna PubJio Ledger:
Sir In connection vtith the Xorth
I'enn Hank outrage, mny I call the
attention of your readers to the follow
ing quotation from a recently published
book, "Prefaces," bv Don Marquis,
who used to be a newspaper man iu
this city:
It is possible that it h not right
to kill people at all ; that view hai
been held sincerely for n long time by
many people. Hut if any deserve
death it li certainly the thief on a
large scale who ruins so many lives.
When he loots n hank men who have
saved and struggled for years glo up
hope; growing children lose the chance
for education, ouths who have been
striving nnd suffering ami overwork
ing against tho time when they might
lenrn n profession or nn art or n
business are flung back into the
slums; talent is crushed; majbe, now.
nnd then, even genius is blasted. The
hand of the thief reaches into tho in
wards af society and Miches the stuff
of life. The future is impoverished
of the soul that would hae come to
bloom.
The essential sin of the thief is that
he cannot rob humnuitv wllbcut rob
bing (iod ; these worlds, these stars
on which we dwell need more life of a
better quality ; great men help God
create! A thief is a rat in the gran
ary which holds the seeds of Heaven ;
monej, properly come by and iiop
erly used, U a sacred thing. An .ion
est financier, who renlly irucs the
world, uay be something ot n prit.
This passage is found iu Mr. Mar

Philadelphia' Alrahlp Opportunity
To (lie Keillor of (he KvmIno PuMlo Ledger:
air Your splendid editorial, "Want-
C( a Jjew 1 e lor nciiun i.mkiiici
Wonder," i verr """ly ni1 ul'e
that it stimulates the community spirit
of Philadelphia.
m.i- T offer a suggestion? With the
absolutely sure coming of the greatest
of all trainporiaiioii, cue ngm uiikuip,
U should be an easy nmuer iu cruns
form within one month our great Hog
Island into the greatest airship manu
facturing renter, and consequently Phil
adelphla would be the greatest airship
harbor in the world. Not only by reason
of the splendid manufacturing facilities,
but alto by reason of the ideal cllraati
cal and meterological conditions of Phil
adelphia. The average American is usually
quicker to see the chance for quick
profit than any other national on earth.
But the average American has allowed
the airship to get by him with its poa
nihility of quick returns on the invest
ment. The British capitalist has seen it.
Amtrlean Investors never hsvo been
shown the real point of view. It is
not the cost of building tho alrshin.
It la the earnings made possible by fait
car)-carry Int airships that havs'ftwt
I chance. When the Amerlcnn Investor
lcnrns that an airship can earn its own
icoxt of construction In less thnu one
1 5 ear and nt the Mime time pay dlvi
drnls of IIMHI per cent over nnd nbove
sinking fund, itisiirnuce nnd cost of
1 maintenance und opera t Ion, he will be
gin to realize that something is slipping
'nut of his hands.
I llillnin Ik awake She Is already do
ling the inevitable building iiirships.
I The nage of the ll-ill was 11 crude
, trx cmt for 1111 airship. It wns the first
serious attempt In an airship to cross
I Hie Attnntlr. And the verj lirst nt
tempt was successful. The H-34 carried
I thirty persons knfely arross the ocean

We, in the Tinted Stntes, have been
told that we cannot build airships; that

The foregoing is moath British

main points. My cap is In the ring:
First. if nominated and elected
Mnj-or of Philadelphia, not Vnro Vil

throw It aside and use a tiu horn ; the
society man said he would, but I am a
good mechanic and I need it lo nail up
the leak holes to pievent the waste of

used ftipnll up about one-third of the
offices,i,niy Hall (now city haul) and
the remaining officials will do time nml
earn their salaries with the use of time
clocks and time cards. A jearlj list of
every officeholder, with his residence,
salary nnd nature of work, will be pub
