Forty Houses Planned at Old
Orchard; Recreation Pro
visions a Feature
The City Planning Commission has
Just set its seal of approval upon
a big development and building proj
ect of Harold A. Hippie, the well- '
• '
known builder and contractor, at Old j
Orchard, near Paxtang.
Mr. Hippie has laid out a plot for |
forty houses there, work on some of
which has been started within the
past few days, and all of them are
to be of very attractive design, brick,
stucco, and brick and stucco finish.
But the outstanding feature of the
development and one with which the
Planning Commission is so well pleas
ed that It will draw the attention of
other builders in it. i 3 that in the
middle of one plot, bounded by Twen
ty-sixth street. Wood I awn street,
Twenty-seventh street and Raleigh
street, with opening in Italeign and
Woodlawn streets, there has been re
served a plot of ground for lawn ten
nis and playground purposes. The
plot is sixty by seventy feet and will
be dedicated to uses of the property
owners. It will be attractively
planted and will for all time form a
breathing-space and play place for
children, and older folks too.
Chairman E. S. Herman, of the
Planning Commission, said to-day
that he believed this to be a good
practice, and that other builders
would profit by adopting It. "I be
lieve," he said, "that the value of
surrounding property would be en
hanced sufficiently for the setting
aside of similar plots on many build
| ing operations."

cussed at a meeting of the Reichstag
auxiliary service committee, at which
Count 'VVestarp, leader of the con
servatives, welcomed General Groen
er's declaration that further attempt
to interfere with munitions work
would be ruthlessly suppressed. Count
Westarp insinuated that money had
played a part in the strike, and ac
cused the Socialist minority of play
ing the game of Germany's enemies.
Ho denied that the trouble was caus

I Making a Friend of §
I Your Newspaper 1
m Why do you make friends with one man and merely have a speaking ac
ffj quaintance with another who outwardly has just as many points to recom-
XL Simply because one has tastes in common with yours, while the other has
habits that do not appeal to you. Efl
Yet you pass no snap judgment on your friends to be; you weigh them well
before you invite them to your home to meet your family. And you would
very speedily put an end to the visits of any man who dropped in each
morning to give your wife and children the details of the latest scandal, to
-show them pictures of scantily clad women, to teach them slang and prac
tical jokes, or who ranted loudly and inaccurately about momentous ques-
E Would you encourage the visits of such a man?
E You would NOT. 9
Ba But have you ever looked at your daily newspaper in that light? Have you
K ever considered the character of the influence it is exerting over your fam-
B ily? If not, there is no better time to begin than right now. 9
ffi Of Philadelphia's newspapers that one which is the choice in the "worth- a
E while" homes is The Record. A newspaper that for nearly fifty years has
n been known as "Always Reliable," because it is clean, dependable, safe
i| sane and sensible.
B| It is a newspaper well worth cultivating and worthy of the respect of think- 9
