WOMEN URGE PREPAREDNESS
Philadelphians to Attend Meeting of
Navy League Auxiliary in Wash
ington in November

Several prominent Philadelphia women
are on a committee of the woman's
section of the Navy League, which is
planning a national defense conference to
be held in Washington about November
Is. The gathering, which will be the
first of its kind. will assemble in
Memorial Continental Hall, headquarters
of the Daughters of the American
Revolution, to discuss womans part in
the agitation for an adequate army and
navy.
The Philadelphians whose names appear
on the committee are: Mrs. George ID.
Widener, Mrs. Craig Blddle, Mrs. James
Potter Mrs Gardner Cassatt and Mrs.
Moncure Robinson.
In accepting her appointment, Mrs
Robinson wrote the projectors as follows
II do not need a new pledge, as I have
been preaching against our foolish un-
Preparedness for many years. I am glad
that women are at last awake to its
menace and hope they will now help to
undo the great harm they have caused
by their short-sighted peace propaganda
in the past"

Federal Employees in State Be-

Purposes
SUFFRAGISTS FLATTERED

Federal oficeholders throughout the

various Democratic committees for
money to assure the election of men who

The suffragsts here are greatly pleased
by the committees including the women
In the employ of the Government in the
class that "can always be relied upon

public affairs, especially when they are
granted the ballot.
The jobholders are paying little atten-
ton TO the appeals of the committees for
contributions, for solicitation of this
kind Is a fragrant violation of the Fed
eral civil service law. The Progressive
Democratic Organization Committee of
Philadelphia is handling the work in this
city and has established itself at the
Democratic Club, where Roland S. Nor

posed w. Horace Hoskins in a bitter
struggle last spring, is now the leader.
The officers of the committee are James
Gillespie, chairman; Harry d. Wescott
Joseph T. Kingsley and John w. Glover.
Glover is Assistant Deputy Internal
Revenue Collector for this district. but
his official position does not interfere
with active duties to distinctly politi-

Gillespie was formerly with the biparti-

captured by the Palmer Mccormick fac

DIR. ZIEGLER WARNS PARENTS
School Children Should Be Examined,
Director Says

Parents Of all school children are urged
to have them examined by physicians
before the opening of the school term, In
this weeks health bulletin. issued by Di-
rector S. Lewis ziegler of the Department
OF Public Health and Charities
"One of the most important ailments to
be attended to among school children is
detective vision,' says the Director.
Medical inspection has shown the fact
that at least 25 per cent of the pupils
have eye trouble.
Good hearing is also a very important
asset to the child, and especially so during
the period of schooling. The supervision
and correction of the condition OF the
teeth are also of extreme Importance.

ATLANTIC CITY. Aug. 3O.--The minia.

crowds Indoors woshed the Boardwalk as
clean as 10 II had been scrubbed, and up
set all the calculations of business men
for a record-breaking crowd. The last
Sunday in August fell below the average
Those who did come enjoyed day that
was cool and pleasant, with gray skies
shutting off the rays OF the sun and
with the ocean ideal for bathing The
temperature of the water was just right,
cool enough to make the nerves tingle,
and the breakers were the highest of the
season.
STOCKINGS STILL THIN.
The ''near-naked" stockings worn by
many women on the beach yesterday
gave many short-time visitors the i'm
preston that the Western fashion of
hare-legged bathing had found its way
here. The new styles of hosiery are
made OF sheer material and are so trans
parent that unless an observer is keen
and detects the wrinkles near the knee
he thinks the fair bathers' limbs are de-
VOID OF covering. A few young girls, who
bathe every day during the season, have
discarded stockings altogether. but the
promised fad for misses and matrons has
been conspicuous by it's absence.
The dieavy tides OF the last two days
have been ripping up the beach in spots.
MANY OF the huge rocks placed beside
the new tetty at the foot OF Tennessee
avenue have been swung by the tides to a
point many hundreds OF feet distant
from the spot which they were supposed

Bun cameras have been much I'm
evidense on the beach during the last

cameras were daily beseiged by men and

REQUESTS were complied with and then
the obliging photographer was compelled
TO so TO a lot OF expense for the
developing OF films and printing OF pic
lures. Becoming tired OF this a number
or regulars on the beach banded to-
Etther and agreed 10 snap every one that
asked, but that the camera was not TO
