II anything were needed to further
impress upon one the absolut" social
democracy of "our own" Tony, 1t de-
yeloped Thursday night, when he and
party of clergymen and religious
workers from this city and Whining
ton iourneyed down to Carney's Point
~ j., where the du Points are busily
engaged in turning out munitions.
and held "A Drexel Biddlc Bible Class
meeting.
Tony you know, is no rcspccter of

social democrat. and he is just as
happy apparcntly-cven more so per-
haps-when he's chatting with hand
full Of men on some slum mission as
he is at debutante reception or
afternoon tea around Rittenhouse

ford. He did so and talked, ETC, with
some boon companions. Time went on
apaCe and our young hero left for the
tea. Arrived at the house he got sue

with his hostess and the little deb and
then sauntered into the dining room.
and on receiving a cup of chocolate
smiled dreamily and, with thoughts of
the earlier hour, walked over to the
sideboard placed one foot on a nearby
chair and carclessly blew the whipped
cream off the top of the chocolate!
