Personality counts for a great deal in the business world, and
it is that factor, more than any other, perhaps, which has broufjht
the Chestnut Street Shops to the notice of those who appreciate
quality. Each of the shops mentioned in this column has an indi
vidual and direct appeal to the readers; each of them advertises
something thut you really need, for the first article of their creed
iB service, and service is. of the essence of personality.
THOSE large, white, freestone
Peaches from Georgia, the most
delicious of the season, are now
at Hallowell's. Honey Dew Melons,
luscious Cantaloupes; large red
, California Piums that fairly drip
with juice; bur black Bine Cher
ries from Oregon; Alligator Pears
from Florida, the finest crown.
and those wonderfully colored
1 Jrulgoba Mangoes are among the
fruits that Henry R. Hallo
well & Son, Broad Street below
i Chestnut, are shipping to summer
resorts and other points within 1000
mi!c3 of Philadelphia. They guar
antee perfect delivery and the fruits
are m transit only a few hours
longer than a passenger making the
sa:ro journey. Out-of-town people
appreciate this service particularly,
for fruits of such quality as Hallo
well's are not obtainable elsewhere.
RARELY does one pass a shady
veranda at any summer re
sort at this time of year with
out discovering interested "groups of
bridge players. Or, if it is not
bridge, it is some other card game
that is holding the attention of the
occupants of the comfortable wicker
chairs. I dropped into Bailey,
Banks & Biddle Company's store the
other day to refresh mine eyes with
beauty, and I was delighted to find
that it is possible to buy there some
most appropriate and useful articles
for bridge prizes, and really there
are a number of these that are in
expensive crystal cracker and
cheese dishes, lemon dishe3, candy
jars, preserve Jars and many other
things, decorative, as well as useful.
A gold pencil is an acceptable bridge
prize, especially when it comes from

A until tho warm weather
came," said an enthusiastic home- j
keeper, "but when I remember the
broom we used on the rugs in other
summers, and the beating that was
necessary to shake out the grit, I
am exceeding glad that we dis
covered the Hoover." The Hoover
has an electrically driven brush
which dislodges grit, while the
air suction removes the surface
litter. Such a process lengthens the
lifo of the rug immeasurably. With

CAMDEN
FIREMEN
GET TWO PLATOONS
Win Fight in Councils After
Three-Year Campaign
for System
WILL COST ABOUT $50,000
As the result of n plan approved by
City Council yesterday. Camden fire
men arc now assured of a two-platoon
s.istem The plan was presented by
the file (oniinittee of Council, of which
Joseph Porsj th is chairman, and marks
ONE of the most healthful of
exercises is cycling, nnd the
best thing about it is that you
don't huve to set apart a certain
number of hours a day -in which to
practice it You can cycle leisurely
in to your place of business in tho
morning and home again in the
evening, feeling much better for tho
exercise. Physicians recommend it,
too. I was in the store of A. G,
Spalding & Bros. at 1210 Chestnut
Street, several days ago, and saw
the new Spaldine racinir model.
The tubing ued in this bicycle is of
! steel and practically unbreakable.
United States tiica are used on the
wheels and there is a New Denarture
coaster brake. This model has the
ram's horn handlebars and a spring
seat. It comes in black, red ana
various other colors.
I HAPPENED upon an interest
ing bit of information this week
when I visited the storo of Fritz
t La Hue, at 1615 Chestnut Street.
Their annual summer salo of Ori
ental lugs is to be held July 19 to
August 31, and you may inspect
the rugs now and make selec
tions in advance. This is really
a wonderful opportunity to secure
rugs for fall at a saving in price.
There are few things that add so
much to the character of a room.
that give to it such an air of lux
I uriousness, as the Oriental rug. A
well-chosen Persian rug, with its
marvelous coloring, or a Chinese
ruir. with its soft nan and rich tones
of mandarin rose, Imperial yellow
and blue, is suggestive oi comrort
and luxury. There is a particular
advantage, too, in buying at Fritz
& La Rue's, where each salesman
is an expert in his line.
KITTEN'S EAR is a fabric
which, Paris says, is to be
much in favor for fall wear.
Hence, the wise womao who is buy
ing a dark afternoon dress for wear
during the summer months chooses
kitten's ear, nnd finds it still wear
able in tho fall. The Blum Store,
1310 Chestnut Street, has just re
ceived some new models in black and
navy blue kitten's ear which are alto
gether charming. A black gown has
a plaited tunic and a girdle showing
touches of old blue. Another black
gown has two plaited frills, peplum
wise, on the skirt and a plaited tunic.
Its girdle is of roman-striped ribbon.
A square-necked blue gown has Its
tunic heavily embroidered in jienna
color, The short sleeves and, square
neck are likewise edtred with the
embroidery. ,
LEDGER PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1920
the culmination of n three- ear fight fpr
the new system.
Sir. Korsjth said that a study will
be made of other titles having the two
platoon a; stem so that Camden may
hae the best possible one. Fifty ex
tra firemen will be necessary to carry
out the new plan. Mr. Forsth said
that It will be necessary to ask the fire
committee of Council to recommend
about S'iO.OOO for this purpose in No
vember. He belleies that it will be
possible to put the new system into
effect by the first of January.
The new system calls for two shifts,
a day shift of ten hours nnd due at
night whlih will be fourteen hours
long. The men will, of course, alter
nate In these shifts.
Cnder the present plan of bavins
only one shift, the men arc compelled
to remain at the fire house the while
twenty-four houis of the day, with no
concession of eery fifth day off.

LAUNGH SHIP SATURDAY
Day State Will Be Christened at New
York Yard, Camden
The 13,000-ton combination cargo and
passenger steamship Hay State will be
launched at the New York sldpyard,
Camden, on Saturday afternoon at Htlfi
o'clock. This is a sister ship of the
Pan Handle State, Creole State nnd the
Talcum All Over
In college gymnasiums, in palatial athletic
clubs and at fashionable watering peaces, athletes
revel, after bathing, in talcum powder on the entire
body.
Talcum manufacturers, in their advertising,
picture a gentleman using a pinch or two after
shaving. '
If that portion of our male population which
enjoys exercise, a shower, and rub with a harsh
towel, could be introduced to the free use of tal
cum, what an increased consumption would result 1
The familiar. Greek Gods in the clothing adver
tisements from Chicago or Troy could lend the
authority of fashion to talcum's generous use.
Instead of covering square inches on the face,
to cover square feet of surface on the body !
To increase the intensity or quantity of use
from present customers could broaden the market
for many commodities in the ratio of square feet
to square inches.
Consider if this might not be true in your
business.
