. .Making Philndelphians proud of
.IMntlclpliio even when in New York.
London, Paris or any of tbft otLor boast
fill cities of this placet is one of the
plans being worked out today by the
new Department of Public Welfare uu
dcr Mayor Moore.
In tcllluR of this George IX Roth, as
sistant to Ernest 1. Tustln, the direc
tor, said:
"The Department of Public Welfare
'J should reflect the social conscience of
.. ,.h6 citj of Philadelphia. 15y 'social
conscience' I mean tho kind of civic
morale which takes pride in what Phil
adelphia has done, is dolus ad will do
to make the city a healtny nnd attrac-
trye' place to linn in.
Faults to Be Curat J
"Mental slouching, religious or fur
tlonal jealousies, incapacity to pla fmr j
in appropriations, inabilty i sti, the ,
whole ct instead of only a port, social )
vnobbisliness. smugness ami othnr die
tempers must go. if Philadelphia 's to
realize the vision of Mayor Moore in
his slogan of 'Philadelphia Pirst.'
"The Department of Public Welfare
Isflghtineon the front line through an
other Argonne forest. It cannot hope
to make "everything go according to ,
schedule' without, first of all, the confi- I
,dence of the people in tho officials at its j
head, and second in the willingness of
individuals to forget many past differ- ,
oryes In a new drive for licallhy, open
ground ahead.
"The four bureaus ot this department
lltircaus ot Charities, Bureau of Cor
rection, Bureau of Itccrcation, Bureau
of Social Service certainly come imme
diately after health, safety and clean
streets in the imtnediato nppeal to the
people of this city.
"This Is just a foreword for the de
partment because action is the thing,
action directed to tho end of making
Philadclphiaiis proud of Philadelphia,
even when they are in New York or
San Francisco, or London or Paris, or
Boston or St. Louis, because of what it
is and what it is doing."

Each is the creation of an artist's
mind and a thing of beauty. There
is one in turquoise blue silk poplin

only trimming is that around the
crown and edge of the brim, where
a fold of the material has been cut
in narrow strips and picoted, giving
a fringed effect. A beautiful bag
of the same material goes with this
Hat. II is lined with whito enfin
and finished with a soft tassel. Black velvet peeps
through the cut and picoted material at the bottom,
producing a very unique finish. .$75.00 for the set
