THE PHILADELPHIA RECORD | If .you are a reader f The Philadelphia Record, daily and Sunday, skip thi* brief article— it's a recital of facta with which you are already familiar. The ! information it contains il for your ' friends and neighbors who do not know ' why you prefer Tbe Record to any other 1 city newspaper— because they don't konw The Record. There are as many kinds of newspapers as there are interpretation* of the word NEWS. The Philadelphia Record interpretation is popular. News , in its estimation, is information of current events of gelferal nterest, presented without any other censorship that that involved in excluding the unwholesome, eliminating tiresome detail and triviality, and . correctly measuring the space allotted to each item in accordance with its importance and its value to the average reader. In Record news there's no skimping and no padding; no artificial manipulation to serve hidden interests; no animus and no favoritism, no inaccuracy that's humanly avoidable; and thousands of correspondents in atl parts of the world are alert to see that there shall be no omission. - Besides being an indefatigable new*gatberer and an impartial chronicler, The Philadelphia Record specializes in many fields. Its produce market reports, its financial columns, its sporting department, its women's and fashion pages, 11 its reviews of plays and books, etc., are authoritative. Its cartoonist Is the best in the country. Its editorial policy is as square as ist news policy; the down- ™ rivlit sineeritv of its attitude on de18

batable questions commands the respect ^ of those who do not agree with It. And Wl —what's of special interest to the worn- a' en folks — The Philadelphia Record car- Wi ries the advertising of all the Philadelphia department stores. The Sunday Record is the daily's big 01 brother. Its rapid strides in circulation are proof positive that the publishers e% have struck the right note In furnishing m a bigger Ind better Sunday paper, with an illustrated magazine filled with the best fiction as one bf its strongest at- rc tractions. There are also five pages of 8' comics, four of them in color, for every- 111 body who enjoys.a wholesome laugh, and an enlarged feature section chock-full 111 of interesting reading. No need to take anybody's work for e5 these facts about the daily and Sunday a' Record;' Buy one copy of each and put ® the matter to a test. That will enroll w you in the large army who believe that The Philadelphia Record, daily and Sunday. ought to be in every home. 91 g B

Warmer nights with the aeQowfag sunshine and very much milder temperahave made all nature smile — dotting again the fields and trees in living green, as the sweet harbingers of summer. A visit to Cdld Spring church on Sabbath greatly enhanced our enjoyment as we drove 'up through the *ms inland" of thrift and -comfort of so many beautiful and tasteful home place*, large and small, of ever changing and cheering view. And our hearts went oat In ' loving sympathy fer the young Wind preacher of the day, whose eyes warn holding from him an this delightful and happy enjoyment of the first Sabbath of real Spring. How grateful we then thought should we be fur the full enjoyment of all our powers to make life happy and useful The borough is beginning a progressive period, throwing off its drowsineea. The lively Freeholder* have invaded It with Broadway and West Peny street# to be treated, as fairly and finely a* Washington stiyet with that splendid and perhaps a* permanent roadbed of asphalt and concrete combination, a* can be laid. The contractors, Sutton , and Corson began the work on Monday. The contract provides for the construe . tion of a bituminous surface upoir^a layer of concrete. And as the .new , Broadway is not to be broken up for . perhaps some years, for the purpose of , taking wator, gas, etc., into houses, the

citizens were notified by the borough to take advantage of the intervening tima the Freeholders proceed with thir work of reconstruction. Consequently that wish to avail themselves of water or gas have eithed dpne it or are doing it now. The gas company is putting their pipes before every vacant lot Broadway. Council met in regular session Monday evening and among tbe features of the meeting was the informal discussion of the verbal report in regard to a new borough hall, but nothing tangible waa reached as to the size, cost and site. A good many of our people are opposed to building at this time on account of tha high taxes and the new street improvements. Mr. Ramshew, the very practical and experienced plumber, seems to be doing all the work of laying the water pipes. and his men have been very busy thia week.

The Freeholders bought 10 feet of the front of Samuel Taylor's property to straighten or take out the very dangerous curve which formed at that spot on Broadway. The work is about completed and is a very 'desirable improvement. After making' extensive alteration# and thoroughly renovating the store of J. Woodruff Eldredge corner of Broadway and Mechanic street, was on Wednesday re-opened as the 'Side ice cream parlor, under the personal management of Mr. Charlta Stites. May great success attend this new and attractive business.

This country could well be content without a war, if it could have peace and honor, but only with honor. In the matter of diplomatic notes this country believes in "scraps" but not In "bales" of paper. Reports regarding Villa's intermen^ possibly; mean meqgly that lie has dug himself in. I Germany may be in straits, but bringing her to bay is something else again. Our own theory is that what that Chihuahua man really wired was that Villa was dead drunk, and somehow or other the last word got lost. NoJ a few of those Mexican report* are coming from our rifles.
