ords showing that thousands of soldiers have
been fed by them.

suggests that strong feeling Of democracy
prevail and the personal side Of coworkers
not TO be considered.

tional League for Women's Service in this

3744 Walnut street where he still lives, to
his business every day, and would drive out
again on the minute Of o'clock for dinner
lie is a dear old man, not very tall, rather
stout and the gray beard has turned to
white. He had five sons. Abel, who mar
red Sara Mullen; " ebster, whose wife
was Georgena Cresson; Herbert, whose
wife was Mary Dunn; Doctor Henry, who
lives at the beautiful old Wetherill place
at Port Kennedy, not far from Norris
town, and the Rev. Francis Wetherill, who
lives with his father at Thirty-eighth and

certainly made of his fourscore natal day
something, let us hope, he will live long to
remember.
