WANTS MARKET
!. ST.BRIDGEFIRST
DR.. Watt, in Brandywine
Church Sermon, Thinks
Structure Needed
SIDE FOLK
KEEP UP FIGHT

Addressing the congregation OF
Brandywine NJ. +. Church at tho
services yesterday morning. the Rev.
Robert Watt, district superintendent,
remarked that he would be pleased
II the State Legislature would decide
to build a new bridge TO replace the
present Market street bridge over the
Brandywine creek before building
Eleventh street bridge.
When Or. Watt, touched on this
matter he was speaking Of persons
making a choice in life and drew an
analogy from the controversy as 10
whether the Eleventh street or Mar
ket street bridge should be built
first.
While the bill authorizing the
Levy Court OF New Castle county 20
borrow 100000 for the replacement
OF the Eleventh street bridge has
been reported favorably from COM
mittee, and one TO authorize the bor-
rowing OF a similar amount for the
construction OF a new bridge over
the Brandywine al Market street is
still being considered In committee,
the controversy as TO which OF these
structures should have preference
still wakes warm.
II is understood that the report OF
the consulting engineer who recent
~ made an examination Of Eleventh
street bridge for the county engi-
neering department. and in an ex-
haustive report pronounced that
structure as unsafe-that is unsafe
for present traffic. When the Elev-
enth street bridge was built in 1881
It was not anticipated It would be
required TO carry Acton cars, 5-tor
trucks and other heavy traffic
While the bridge has been altered
at times. the examination OF the
bridge has shown these alterations
weakened rather than strengthened
the structure. The report, 1t is un.
derstood, deals entirely with the
physical condition OF the present
bridge. regardless of any purpos'
others may think a new bridge
might serve. such as connecting will
the proposed boulevard develop
ment. or its effect on commercial
or landed interests in that section
Several members Of Levy Cour
have expressed themselves as feel
ing that inasmuch as feeling tina
the Legislature should authorize tn
| Issuance OF bonds TO cover the con
struction OF both bridges ana loav'
the matter as to which should b
/ constructed first to the good judg
ment Of the county's engineering de
/ partment and the county's elected
/ representatives.

County Funds, OH
Deposit in Closed
Bank, Made Good

Representatives of the National Sc
curity Company and of the New York
Fidelity & Security company, were in
Tombstone yesterday to confer with
the board of supervisors and county
treasurer Guy G. Welch, in regard to
the money that was on deposit in the
First National Bank ut Tombstone
and which was secured by those CON-
panies. After checking over the books
OF the county treasurer and the depoS
its slips in the bank IL was discovered
that there was $97. G61.03 of county
funds in the bank at the time 1t was
closed. The bonding companies yes
terday made good this amount and it
was paid into the county treasury.
1t is understood that a representa-.
tive of the casutlay company which
was on the bond of W. P. Walker for
the sum of $4,000 will be in Tomb
stone today and will make a settle
ment for this amount.
The balance of the money, some
$4,000 alleged to have been embez-
zled by Walker. is to be recovered
from the Maryland Casualty Company

Chain Stores Gain
While Mail Order
Houses Are Losing,

j. c. Penney Company, the opera
tors of a countrywide system of
chain stores, did 25 per cent more
business during the first seven
mouths OF this year than during the
corresponding months of 1920. while
Sears. Roebuck & Co, and Montgom-
cry Ward &, Co., the two leading mail
order houses of the country, suffered
loss of 81 per cent. in the same
period, according to figures obtained
by the Daily Garment News.
E. c. Sans, president of the j. c..
Penney company, when asked why 1t
was that in that period of depres-
sion the Penney stores had increased
their sales so tremendously while the
business of the catalog house had so
greatly fallen off, ascribed the fact
in part to the poor business condi-
lions.
When business is flush" he said,
people are not so particular where
they buy and do little shopping
around. When business is bad they
are anxious to find out where they
can obtain what they want at the low
est price. Because we have pursued
policies which permit us to sell at
rockbOttom, prices ]. c. Penney COM
pany has prospered through the de-
preston.
The chief point in the policies of
the Penney stores that brought this
about he said were:
l. That the Penney stores on JAN
uary 1st, took a $3,O0O,OOO loss on
their inventory to make It possible
to base selling prices on replacement
values.
2. That the Penney stores have de-
voted an increasing amount of money
to aruse interest by the public in the
values offered them.
3. That the executives of each OF
the Penney stores is interested in
the business and for that reason nave
the same personal interest in their
stores which the man, who owns a
single store possesses. This Mr..
Sans points out is an element which
is entirely lacking in the big mali
order concerns.
4. The Penney stores sell for cash
only.
>. The Penney stores do not deliv-
err any merchandise to their cuSto-
mers. -
6. The Penney stores derive all the
benefits that are obtained through
large scale buying.
