Merchandise and Service
The proper combination Of these two
elements of retailing. represent the great
est force in successful store management.
Merchandise without service to back it
up is about as potent as an electric car
with the trolley pole off the wire.
For years the McLoud Company has
been perfecting the combination of these
two store fundamental merchandise
and service. And while we have not at
tanned TO that degree of perfection which
is the goal of our efforts, we believe we
have rounded out one of the best comb
nations, in actual practice, that can be
found in any store in'Vermont.
The merchandise we buy is always
dependable and always in the best as
sentiments that it is possible to use.
Couple with this courteous and pains
taking attention by our sales force,
prompt delivery and efficient care Of the
purchase throughout, and you have a
word picture of merchandise with the
right service, and the service backed up
with the right merchandise.

NOTES ON THE STREET.


The Public Ledger Real Estate Guide
for January. just out, is a compact sum
mary Of dolngs In the world OF real
estate
1t is the official organ of the Phlladel-
phla Real Estate Board and will prove
a great benefit to city and citizen, espe-
cially in the matter of better transit and
better real estate conditions.
The transfers are arranged in street
groups in the guide, easy to refer to and
most useful in every office
The Board of Viewers held a meeting
yesterday to hear testimony of owners
for property taken in the opening of the
Parkway from 10Th to 22d streets. The
following claims were heard:
Numbers 23S and 25S North goth street,
1916 Vine street, 2011 Winter street and
-16-1S-2O-22-2S Vine street. The next
meeting will be held on January IS, at
10:3O a. m.
The contemplated demonstration, on
January H. In favor of immediate action
by Councils on the matter of rapid
transit is of the greatest interest to
real estate men. Delay by Councils will
hold up a great deal that is planned.
The real estate men of the city see no
reason why the subject should not be
submitted to the people at the March
election. LESSOR.

CITY'S REVENUES FOR 1914
INCREASED BY $1,406,310.37
Aggregate of $50, o,o74, ,e45.s5 1arg-
est Ever Recorded.

The total revenues of the city during
1914 increased by 81, 4O6 31O.37 over the rev.
enues of 1913. The city's income for the
last year aggregated $33 075, ,645S5, the
largest ever recorded for a single year.
Receiver of Taxes w. Freeland Ken
drick has compiled a summary of the re-
celpts for the year indicating the sources
OF the funds. City taxes yielded S14,932,-
1872 of the aggregate; school taxes COM
prised 1866, 6,971.O2; personal property
taxes, S2,249. 41O52 Collections for water
rents were $5,1SS, 1852
Delinquent tax collections during the
year amounted to s2,159, ,420,O4, an increase
of more than $4,000 over delinquent tax
collections in 1913. Receiver Kendrick at
tributes this increase during his first year
of office to campaign inaugurated by
him resulting in increased activity of the
deputy delinquent collectors.
The total item of S5,lSS, 1889 for water
rents is S240.6S5.S1 greater than the rev.
enue from that source in 1918. The num-
ber of delinquents In payment of water
rents is declared to have been reduced by
approximately 1000.
At the request of Receiver Kendrick,
the branch tax offices in various parts of
the city have been authorized by Coun-
ellis to make daily deposits in authorized
banks. thereby enabling a messenger to
carry certificate of deposit to City Hall
instead of cash on his daily trips. Re
ceiver Kendrick has commended his
office force for prompt work that made
possible the closing OF the work imme-
diately after the close of the year. in
spite OF the fact that the closing days OF
1911 brought almost 100000 in tax pay
ments.

Any one who doubts the fact can easily
find out for himself or herself by attend

They will learn of her existence very
quickly should they become disorderlv.
her name is Mrs. Mamie McGlona, and
she's thorough disclplinarian.
She knows when an audience should
laugh or when 1t should weep therefore.
when any "freshles" attempt to kid" the
pictures by laughing at the sad scenes and
expressing their opinions out loud a gentle
tap on the head reminds them that the
first woman cop" in Philadelphia is "on
the job"
She is likewise a diplomat. She believes

can vouch for this. They attempted to
get gay in the theatre the other night,
and while they were still laughing at their
own jokes the fair "coppess" caught them
by their necks and banged their heads to-
gether. They saw stars even through the
darkness. and didn't know any more until
they were standing outside the theatre,
considerably bumped and ruffled.
The word has gone round the neighbor-
hood that Policewoman McGlona 'is there
with the goods" Therefore the moral
effect of her first arrest has proved benefl-
cal. She is not partial to women; those
who try to hide the pictures with hats as
big as refrigerators have to take them
off. Her motto Is zone nickel is as good
as another"
Mrs. McGlona understands responsible

has been the sole support of two children
and also takes care of her aged parents.
She lives at 3512 North Mascher street.

The woman "cop" realizes that pleasure
in life is a necessity, and she's glad to be
in a position to keep the rough element
from spelling the movies"
