".During her tour Mrn. Mcllck helped

Gilferd IMncbet during his visits te
these cities.
Speaking of the, up-Hlate situation
among the women, Mrs. Mellck said
today !
""The women of the State nre show
ing much greater activity than before
the primary. Mere than nnc-hnlf of
the counties have given them represen
tation en the Executive Committees.
"Nearly everywhere Jlie men are rec
ognizing their value ns vote getters nnd
are learning they nre valuable adjuncts
te tbe party. At the same time the
Tcemen arc becoming nwaro.ef the fact
that all politicians are net creeks, nnd
that the organization lpadcrs nre net
'trying te put something ever qn them.'
This co-operation, of course, tends to
ward increnj-ed efficiency in party or
ganization." Mr. Mcllck nlM said that the desire
te "finish the job of ranking l'lnchet
Governer of Pennsylvania" was giving
great stimulus te tbe women lenders.

Satisfaction that gees
with owning an ESTEY
The one main tiling te consider in selecting a piano is
will it give satisfaction?
ou may be considering a piano or player-piano that is
pleasing te your eye and that meets your approval in tone,
but if it is an instrument that is going te be constantly out
of tunc or out of order, it will net be a source of much
satisfaction. '
The ESTEY is a piano of lifelong satisfaction. Its
cabinet work will net be pulling apart in damp weather.
It will net lese its beautiful mirror-like finish. Its keys will
net be constantly sticking. It will net require tuning
every whip-stitch.
The ESTEY piano is dependability itself. Once you
nave placed an ESTEY in your home, aside from a tuning
once a year, which every geed piano should have, and an
occasional polishing, it will net give a moment's bother in
a lifetime of use.

SENTIMENTS OF THE
SONS OF THE FOUNDERS
Our Oldest Empleye
Has Served This Firm
Since Its Beginning
Among the boys in blue who marched away in 1862
was a young man who enlisted in the Fifteenth Penn
sylvania Cavalry, served his country three years, and
in 186S entered the employ of Justus C. Strawbridge
at this corner. He was retained' when the partnership
with Isaac H. Clothier waa formed in 1868, and was
very highly regarded by the founders.
Wilfred H. Keely, Head Cashier
Was trusted with important accounting and financial
duties from the beginning. Fer many years he has
been our chief cashier, and has always enjoyed the
fullest confidence of the firm. He is at his desk every
day and is honored by the sons of the founders as one
who has ever conscientiously upheld the principles and
ideals of the founders.
