The history of Gimbel Brothers Furni-
ture business is decidedly interesting
standing of the Store in furniture selling is
unique. -. ... .. ...
Furniture selling was not made part
of this business when it opened in Philadel-
phia in 1894-there seemed to be no room
for another worthwhile furniture business.
But that decision was reconsidered in a few
years, and following the policy of thorough
ness that characterizes the house, a furni-
ture business was installed under most
capable management.
Year after year it has grown in power
to serve, and, by reason of its large volume,
in its power to control prices in your favor.
War conditions demoralized the furniture
industry-but now the war is over, and old
time values are returning.
Today the Gimbel Store stands first in
furniture worthy goods only
very beautiful and correctly fashioned furni-
ture, at prices most interesting.

10 the Editor of The Star:


The Star of Wednesday,, under
the headline, Scores Senators in
Handbook Cases." quoted me as say
ing, among other things. that 1 had
received numerous communications
from United States senators asking
that the charges against Tallant be
continued or dropped. and that
United States senators have no right
whatever to interfere in the trial of
cases in this court. 1. will not stand
FOR 1T and they might as we'll know
now as ever. This practice must stop
and will personally see that it does"
This article is incorrect and mis-
leading. l did not say Il had received
numerous communications from sena-
tors asking that the charges against
Tallant be continued or dropped" nor
have l ever received any such commu-
nfcationS The defendant in the case
to which you refer did not ask to
nave MS case continued or dropped.
but upon the contrary appeared and
entered plea of guilty and had his
case disposed of. ~ldid say, This de-
fendant has had Several United States
senators attempt to communicate
with me about his case l think this
Is bad practice and don't approve of
1t. United States senator's have no
more to do with the judgments in
cases IN this court than truck drivers
in the streets have, and the sooner
everybody around here finds it out the
better
l did not. as stated in the headline
over your article, score" any sena-

prominent officials here are subject
to frequent and great annoyance by
people charged with offenses impor-
tuning them to use. their influence
with the judges in regard to SEN
tences. Senators and other such Of
ficials are as reluctant to engage in
this as the judges are to have them
to do. but sometimes they do yield
to the opportunities and make such
communications. l regard this as a
bad practice and think it ought to be
stopped.
In community in which there are
SO many powerful and influential men,
who come intimately into contact
with the masses of the people. it is
highly important that the belief
should not exist that all that is nee
essary to avoid the penalty of vio-
lated law is to have the influence of
some powerful official.

CONFER WITH MONDELL/
ON U. S. PATENT OFFICE
Lawyers and Manufacturers Call
Conditions Deplorable and
Ask Relief.


The deplorable situation at the United
States patent office, where the trained
workers are quitting the service, and
II is impossible to get the right kind
of examiners to take their places, was
emphasized at a conference of lawyers
and manufacturers with House Leader
Mondell.
A large delegation, including spokes-
men from thS patent law committees
Of many bar associations. co-operated
with representatives of technical and
scientific societies in making the ap-
peal to Congress for prompt action on
relief measure now waiting on the
House calendar.
Warning was given that the govern
ment Is about to lose the services of
the few remaining expert examiners
because of Inadequate salaries, and
that at time when Speeding up of in
dustries Is imperative, the manufac-
turers are being delayed Indefinitely
because the patent office cannot give
them service.
Mr.. Mondell told the delegation he
would not press pending bills for that
purpose while the project of reclassi-
Tying government employees in all de-
partments was under way. The dele
CATION told the republican leader that
under the reclassiffcation bill relief
could not be obtained for nearly two
years. and carried their case to AS
sistant Secretary Finney of the In
terror Department.
The lawyers also intend to appeal to
President Harding
The same committee of patent law
yers and technical and scientific men
had a conference, with Chairman
Lampert of the House subcommittee
who made the favorable report on
the proposed legislation nd who h, 8
been endeavoring to secure action
upon 1t in the House. Chairman n
!Iampert assured the delegation that
he would call up the bill in the House
for action as soon as he could get
consideration

a battle royal is expected when st.
Joseph's Prep and West Catholic High

night in the st. Joseph gymnasium.
Many regard st. Joseph's and West
Catholic as the two best teams in the
Catholic league. Both won their open
ing league games. West Catholic ran
Wild in its game with La Sale and
piled up at 4S-11 score. st. Joscph's 5

of last seasons second team. The boys
from last seasons championship five are
Martin, Breslin and Bradley. Dugan,
Lynch and Kane were members of last
years reserve five.
st. Joseph's Prep has not lost n game
so far and has been victorious in three
contests. The victims include Brown
Prep. Catholic High and Salesianum
High. In the three games total of
only seven field goals were registered
against the Crimson and Gray passers.
Bradley and Breslin will hold down
the guard posts. A better defensive
pair is hard to find in scholastic ranks.
Mike Dugan will be stationed at the
pivot post. while Martin and Eddie
Murphy will play at the forward bcrths.
West Catholic has won games from
Frankford High and La Sale, and was
defeated by West Philly by a three
point margin.
The team is one of the fastest in the
city. Coach Quinlan will depend upon
the same five that brought victory over
La Sale, namely, Blake. McIIenry,
De Filippo, Mullin and Doyle.

MRS. BOWSER'S
STORY
Mr.. Bowser Is Going to
y Write One to Beat 1t.
By M. QUAD.
OOoOoOOOOO0


Mrs. Bowser y
1t was Mr.. Bowser who spoke, and
In such deep, bass voice as made the
piano tremble on its legs.
Mrs. Bo%ser looked up inquiringly.
"a great mystery hangs over this
house That mystery is also full Of
deception. / want it solved, right
away. / want to know what has been
going on in nay own house."
g, Estate your cases. replied Mrs. Bow
ser, but in tones that showed she was
somewhat frightened.
"You ran in to see Mrs. Green few
minutes last evening. While you were
absent / picked up magazine off the
piano. / am not much of reader of
such things, as you know, because
their contents are mostly gish. just
wanted to look at the pictures to while
away the time. sOn opening a maya
zine 1 found letter, 1t had been
opened. 1t was addressed to Miss
Jean Carew,' at our street and number,
and pulling forth the letter, ! found it
was from the editor of the magazine.
He had accepted a story and sent a
check for $50 in payment. Do you
know any young lady named Jean
Carew?" 9*7if
"Why--why, 1 was going to tell you
all about it," said Mrs. Bowser. 1.-THE
editor of the magazine said he wanted
,+,~,;oe II &bo,,rh+- fhot oOIIld XUritn
one to suit him, and so sat down and
dashed off one. / did not wish to send
my own name as authoress, and so l
took Jean Carew. You see, he ac-
cepted my story and sent me check,
and / was going to ask you to get 1t
casfred for me. Is there any great mys-
terry about that?"
"Mrs. Bowser, let us look into this
thing. In the first place, you wrote
this story without saying anything to
me about it, In the next place, you
took another persons name, and there
by deceived the editor and the public.
In the next place, I have read your
story, and it is the most nonsensical
thing ever read. 1t is all mush and
gush. The editor must have gone
crazy to accept such story. You have
swindled him out of $50 and you should
send the check right back!"
"Why, Mr.. Bowser, you. talk very
strange !" exclaimed Mrs. Bowser.
'aThe editor Of the magazine is sup
posed to know what is good, and what
is bad He thought this story of mine
good enough to publish, and was worth
the check he sent me. I don't praise it
much myself, but I dent think you
ought to condemn it as you do. Mrs.
Green and two other ladies read 1t,
and it brought tears to their eyes"
"Bosh-nonsense! A woman would
shed tears over most anything. Your
story had hundred faults. There Is
no plot and no strength. You did as
well as you could, but I am not going
to have it known that the wife Of
Samuel Bowser is writing such gush
for publication. It shows a weak
brain, on your part, and laxity on
mine. People will ask why / don't
forbid you. Hereafter all the stories
