V. According to Those Who Live There No Other Place Really Exists Philadelphia is a favorite subject fdr modern American humor, but Philadelphians themselves are far from apologetic In their attitude. An article by Harrison Rhodes gives an amusing sense of their arrogance. Long our second largest city, and even now our third, Philadelphia, is, nevertheless, in the. strangest fashion, for most Americans terra incognita.

It is oonveniently situated, and yet, almost symbolically, the through trains run around it and not into it. It makes no effort to attract the stranger. It, advertises no historic attractions, it sets no Broadway ablaze, it beats no tomtoms. Of all our American towns, it is the most self-contained. It has almost none of our traditional eagerness for and sensitiveness to criticism.

There is nothing in it of the hurrah-boys braggadocio which so often marks our American civic spirit. Philadelphia does not assert that it js In any way an admirable town; it merely leels that Philadelphia exists, always has existed, and always will exist, and that in a confused and tumultuous and vulgar world, this is on uncontrovertible fact, the one solid rock, where there is a sure foothold. The true Philadelphian neither Rdmires or dislikes New York; he simply does r.ot know that New York exists. The great lady who managed to remember with difficulty the metropolis as the place where one goes to take the steamship for Europe was expressing with a conscious. satirical exaggeration the actual Philadelphia feeling.

And a pretty morocco-bound set of address books, purchased lately at the- best stationers, gives a charming concreteness to this same point of view; the three little volumes are labeled "Philadelphia, London and Paris this is the world as Philadelphia, sees it.
