NEW WASHINGTON CROSS
NG-NEWTOWN ROAD

The Pennsylvania Highway De-
partment has announced that a new
improved highway is to be built
from Newtown, Pa. to Washington
Crossing. This is another link in
the highway system merging at the
Delaware River in the development
of the Memorial Park.
The Regional Planning Federation,
Of Philadelphia, points to this as
an advantage to Philadelphia in the
opening Of new territory for home
seekers. Suburban homes for Phila-
delphia business men are springing
up all over that section, and the
beauties of the Delaware Valley are
attracting many others.

UNGENEROUS SUSPICIONS

T expect Judy, you're going to dinner with J. D. Robinson" Jerry exclaimed yiciousIy. "I must say you work quickly"
 In q moment l was quite as angry as he. Jerry Hathaway had no busi- ness to have such ungenerous suspi- cions.
 You have no right to expect any thing" I said furiously. You are not my keeper or my husband"
 No, I'm not. But I have been fool enough to think that l might be your sweetheart. Dad told me just a little while ago that you were 100 clever for me; that you would throw me over for Robinson in minute if you found that he could help you along toward your ambi- ton faster than l. Dad said you were a girl whose head would al- ways overrule her heart"
 "I don't care q continental darn what your dad says. He is a vicious old man and I'll tell him so the next time l see him. In the meantime you can tell him for me that l have cut another notch in the stick which I 1 am keeping as q reminder of what | I owe him. You may put me down 1 here, Jerry. I'm not going 10 ride with you another block. I'll walk the rest of the way to the Congress hotel"
 Without another word Jerry drove , up to the curb and 1 got out.
 As he was starting the car l turned and said: If it will give you any satisfaction I'll tell you as well as the rest of the world that I'm not going to dine with Mir Robinson to- night"
 Judy, oh Judy" called Jerry. l didn't turn my head but smiled a little as I remembered how many times l had gotten out of automo- ! piles and walked away from them because l didn't like my company.
 "Well, this is somewhat better" I i said 10 myself as I went toward the ] Congress rather triumphantly, than my last walk of this kind" Then l had trudged through the rain to my fathers house to get away from the

Gossip,s Corner

The trouble with American mar riago and divorce, says Alice Dunr Miller author. is too romantic q conception of marriage. ITO be mar ricd and not in love outrages our ideals, therefore only two courses are open 10 us, to pretend 10 our selves that He are still in love, or else 10 divorce.
 Europeans consider that th"E have truer. saner conception oi marriage than we have, because they emphasize the co-partnership idea. marriage regarded as a civil contract. Over there they have long believed that 1t was possible not 10 be in the least in love with your husband. or your wife, possible even to bc in love with someone else, and vet 10 have a solid, valuable re- latiou left, namely, matrimony,"

 By the term dangerous water is meant any water that may cause illness or death f used for drinking purposes and there ara many such waters.
 Few realize that millions Of deaths have been caused in times past from drinking water that vas contaminated with such germs as those Of cholera and typhoid fever.
 streams and Lakes
 By serving as channels Of com- municaiion. by furnishing oppor- tlnty for recreation nd by pro- yiding water supplies. streams and lakes rank amon~ the foremost or our natural resources. Not by. any means tho least useful function of such bodies CT water is that Of pro- yidng h.aIfhful recreation in the form Of fishing, boating and swim ming.
 4 commonplace thought import auf function Of water courses is the drainage of surface washings. In many instances, ma has used the stream often unwisely as a means of disposinc of sewage and indus trial wastes.
 About the most dangerous form Of pollution 10 which q body Of water can be subjected is that Of re- ceivng human waste, that is, th+ discharges from the human body,
 Even very small amount Of such pollution becomes a most serious menace, or if you will pardon plain words one person suffering from typhoid fever has been known 10 infect the water supply of an entire city causing hundreds of deaths from this disease.
 Typhoid
 A short time ago an outbreak of typhoid fever occurred in a small town in one of our middle western states. Upon investigation, if Vas found that this outbreak was due 10 2 cross connection which allowed polluted water 10 enter the mains Of the regular drinking water system.
 l. so happened that a national conference vas being held in the lit- tle town and no less than eight states have since sent in reports Of persons who were infected by drink ing this water and who developed the disease after they had returned home.
