MODERN DANCES TO LURE
TRADE TO DEAD TOWN
Borough to Use Charm of Fair Maids
Against Counter Attractions
Close at Hand

Chester, Pa.-The modern dance
craze and unkept finger nails have
been hit upon by industrial boomers
and merchants of Leiperville as a
means to advertise the town and draw
trade. The plans will be worked out
and the traps set thru the happy me-
dunn of host of Delaware County's
finest specimens of femininity.
The thrifty and wide awake borough
of Leiperville adjoins Eddystone, but
with Chester on the other side of the
Baldwin and Remington arms plants,
merchants and citizens tf Leipervill"
receive little or no benefits from the
industrial boom and the army of work
ers in these mammoth mills usually
head Chester way in search of pleas
ure and supplies.
To divert some of this traffic into
Leiperville, the citizens evolved a
novel celebration to be known as
Get 'em here week"
1t is planned to attract the work
men to the borough thru the lure of
the latest dance steps, and the fair
maids with dainty and well trained
feet have volunteered to enlist as in.
structors. The new quarters of the
James f. Dougherty Fire Company
will furnish the dancing floor.
Another group of the fairest ones
will arm themselves with manicuring
implements and be in constant readi
ness for a movement upon t!ackeneG
finger nails of the workmen when the
shifts change.
Only three new dwellings have beer
erected in Leiperville in the last sew
enty-five years and the residents dc
clare they will no longer furnish ma
terial for gibes and jokes from neigh
bo- ng towns.

turn the property, an article having
ppeared in the local paper relaive 10
IL. Mr.. Gillette's relatives in this sec
ton told him of the discover. and he
decided to call for the stick the next
time he came to this city.
For the first time in thirty yeas he
.eturned to Watertown, and after
shaking hands with old time friends
he started in search of his cane. Sec
rotary Bugbee was compelled to tell

Mr.. Gillette did not exactly need tn

A Clever Stroke.

An eminent lawyer was once cross
examining clever woman, mother of
the plaintiff in breach of promise
action, and was completely worsted in
the encounter of wits. At the close,
however, he turned to the jury and
exclaimed:
You saw, gentlemen, that even I
was but a child in her hands. What
must my client have been?"
BY this adroit stroke of advocacy
he turned his failure into a success.
