Women's organizations heic It is be
lieied lodaj, will arrange for an early
conference on wnvs to fight against
food profited ing. Interest in this pro
posed campaign was increased bv
suggestion by Miss Alberta Van Dusen,
nf the New Century Club, that women
icsist profiteering by refusing to buy
articles of food when they are raised
nbnie n certain reasonable level
She strongly indoised the suggestion
made by several club women of the
city that n conference of lepresentativc
Philadelphia si omen be tailed to map
out a definite campaign of thrift.
"The New Century Club heard Miss
Baron speak." said Miss Van Dusen.
"and following her suggestions, the
president of tho club afked mo to ap
point (he chairman nf a committee
which should take up the matter,"
Miss Van Dusen said that the com
mittee will eentually be oiganiscd
nud will probably engage in n etudj of
a program for thrift
"Everything has gone up in price so
that there are Tcry few articles which
can be bought reasonably." idie declared.
"However, we can undoubtedly do much
by uidicinus tiujlng,"
The proposed action of the "S'ew
Century Club is in step with tcnlathe
plans of the Philadelphia section of
the Council nf Jewish Women, ns set
forth b Mr. Max Margolis on Wed

With a unanimity of opinion as to
how I he situation should tie met by dif

and flames, leaping from the two upper
floors, threatened the adjoining struc

Firemen worked under difficulties.
Streams from their hose short-circuited
electric lights about tho place, and
they were forced to work with the aid
of acetylene torches. Finally the fire
men were forced to work from n new
building at Eighteenth nnd Hamilton
streets.
The fire, which destroyed the plant,
was discovered by a watchman, nnd
started on one of the upper tloors.
Three alarms followed In n short time.

The Details of This Sales-Event Are:
Some weeks ago, while in New York we came across a Skin
Merchant who had a disagreement with his partner. The two
decided to separate, and the man who intended to remain and
carry on the business, needed a large sum of ready cash with
which to buy out his retiring partner. It was just at the begin
