Imperial Tea Co. 213 Chestnut Street \CtyUffind the v AN Ot'T-OF-TOWN matron re cently came to the city in search of a good ladies' tailor. Unable to find one. she be came thoroughly discouraged and was about* ready to give up her quest when she accidentally met a friend at the Penn-Harris who sent her to Louis, at his shop, opposite the main entrance of the Capitol. On finding the lovely materials rich fur trimmings, ar/d excellent models that Louis is showing, she asked in amazement why he failed to ad vertise. "Because," answered Louis, "For me it is unnecessary. Jly sat isfied patrons and the garments I produce are all the advertisement that 1 need." Which is true indeed! Louis' wonderful work speaks for it self. DO you remember my speaking of an exhibition of hand-painted china to be given by one of the city's foremost artists an dher pupils at the Saltzffiver Art and Antique Store? At the time I said very little, for I was afraid of divulging a secret; but now I am free to tell you all about it. And here are the facts: Miss Quigley,'with her pupils is at present exhibiting a beautiful assortment of hand-painted china of every descrip tion and sort at the Saltzgiver store. If you are at all interested in art, you can't afford to miss it. Surely you will find i. ! ~r spare moments sometime before Wednesday, when the exhibition closes, to steal away to 223 North Second street, where a rare treat awaits you. LITTLE bits of ribbon, little bits | of lace,' plus a larger bit of j pale blue satin combine to make the charming chemise over which sd many people exclaim in admiration as they pass the Cloos Shop windows. Made most attrac tively, one.of its especially appeal ing features is the touch of orchid in its two-toned blue and orchid rib bon. Then, too, a tiny rosebud nestles in the softness of its lace. By its side star/ds the cunningest little pair of silk ribbon mules that you'd ever want to see and inside the shop is a camisole of its exact design. Many more mules are also displayed within, some silk quilted and others of ribbon, in shades of lavender, pink and blue. • • j Pride in j o One's Product 5 • • A • • "He lacks artistic conscience" someone 0 0 said about Arnold Bennett, the English' a 0 author. He was referring to the fact that 1 a Bennett is what is called a two-handed • • author. With one hand he ivrites mag- 10 0 nificent novels for the sheer pleasure of h 0 it and with the other he dashes off pot• q n boilers, "best sellers" ivith which to make * • money. His cheerful cynicism about j ; these latter is amusing. 0 A * V It's hard for me to justify Bennett's 0 0 viewpoint. It seems wrong, somehow, for 0 n one to do less than his best. I know how A 2 I feel about merchandise. Often the 2 • manufacturers show me very pretty gar- • 0 ments at comparatively low prices. But 0 0 when I study the fabrics and workman- 0 a ship I perceive that they can't give lasting n • satisfaction. I could make a larger profit 2 V on these goods. It would increase my • 0 earnings if I carried them. But I simply 0 A can't sell merchandise in which I can't 0 X take pride. I refuse to be a two-handed a • merchant. Half the pleasure I get from • V running this shop comes from my pride in ; 0 its product. If you want cheap "sleazy" 0 a materials of no wearing power you'll have A • to buy elsewhere. 1 FRIDAY EVENING, INTERESTING PERSONAL AND SOCIAL Miss Martin's Guests at a Matinee Musicale Miss Edna F.

Somehow or other they leave one with a warm, glowing feeling of happiness. And don-'t you suppose that handmade gifts mean as much to others as they do to you? .Most assuredly so. Why, a beautiful embroidered table run ner such as I saw today at the Art and Gift Shop, 105 N. Second street, would prove the most acceptable gift in the world when made every stitch by yourself and given to that little bride who soon expects to go to housekeeping. Then, too, this shop is showing sets Of heavy tan cushions, table runners, and center pieces as well as attractive, white between--meal cloths and boudoir cushions, all stamped and ready for embroidering. { \ H, BOY" No. I'm not talk- I I ing about a musical com edy or a song, or anything of the sort. Indeed not. Rather, I am speaking of a pair of shoes I saw yesterday at the Army and Navy Shoe Store on Court street. "And believe me, they're some shoes!" The man who called them "Oh, Boy" knew what he was doing, for the term expresses them exactly. Made of eordo-calf. they come in just the proper shade of brown and suggest that long, narrow effect so popular at preseirt, and, at the same time leave plenty of room for an uncramped foot. A mere touch of lighter stitching adds a smart note to one of the "snappiest" pair of shoes I've seen in many and many a day. TEA TOMORROW ATTHEY.W.C.A.

Philadelphia, Pa. t BJURJRI6BT7RG TELEGRjtPH NORMAL ALUMNI FEAST IN HOTEL Annual Banquet of Shippens burg Association in Pcnn- Harris Last Evening Two hundred and nineteen covers were laid for the tenth annual ban quet of the Cumberland Valley State Normal School Alumni Association successfully held last evening in the Penn-Hurris. Dr. Samuel Z. Shope, 610 North Third street, president of the asso ciation as toastmaster introduced the following speakers: Dr. A. L. Row land, Director of the Bureau of Training and Certification of Teach ers, State Department of Public In struction, who spoke on, "Co-opera tion between the State Department and the State Normal Schools," out lining the department's plans for the improvement of the quality and the increase of the quantity of the higher class of teachers, a class that always earns more than It is paid however high the salary may be. | He said that this improvement and increase must come through the normal schools co-operating with I the State Department of Public In struction. Dr. Rowland urged the teachers to give their best efforts I to their work, for the future of the nation depends largely upon its 600,000 teachers and he pitted out that the benefits that accrue to the teachers of this State from the Woodruff Act passed at the last ses sion of the Legislature are but an earnest a foretaste of the boon which proposed natiopal legislation will confer upon them and thus raise the teaching profession to its proper dignified position alongside j the other learned professions. Dr. John I. Woodruff, of Susque hanna University said in brief that "teachers are so poorly paid that many have been forced to leave the profession, seeking employment In another field, and so many schools are to-day without teachers. * * .®° serious has the situation of living on an insufficient salary become for them that there was a real danger that teachers might fall in with the spread of Unionism and should that happen, the Bolshevik Idea would spread broadcast." Dr. Lehman, principal of the Normal School spoke on "The Past, Present and Future Place of the Cumberland Valley State Normal School in the Educational World." He says that there is the largest en rollment in school history and the school cannot accommodate the prospective students for the spring term. * Enthusiastic Speakers Frank B. Wickersham, assistant District Attorney of Dauphin County in speaking on "The Relation of the Alumni Association to Alma Mater," insists that it is the solemn duty, and should be the real delight, of every alumnus of "Old Normal," to lend every possible aid to the Alma Mater in this great movement for the uplift of the teaching profes sion and through It, the real Amer icanization of the men and women of the future. He plead for a con stant display of real affection toward the "beneficent mother" on the part of the sons and daughters who owe so much to that "mother." Dr. H. H. Baish, chairman of the State Teachers' Retirement Board. Professor J. S. Heiges, Dean of the Normal School. Mrs. H. R. Omwake, secretary of the association and J. Clyde Zeigler, of Tech H. S. faculty were also among the speakers. The president of the association then proposed that the local alumni association of Dauphin and sur rounding counties amalgamate and thus produce a united army of workers In the great cause. This was enthusiastically and unanimous ly adopted.
