OCTOBER 17, 1919 PROMISING JOBS 7 County Chairman Seidel, who ie conducting the Republican end of the municipal1 campaign, assures the public that he is not promising: city hall jobs noV naming a new chief of police.

In view of the fact that the elec tion hag not yet taken place, and there Is more or less uncertainty a.s to which party will control the rjis tribution of patronage at city hall it cloes seem premature for eTther party to make appointments.1 Siil. It has been known in past campaigns that all jobs were promised long before election, afTcl promises far exceeded subsequent appointments. It is 'a way politicians have of keeping the'doubtful voter in line, and while it works'sometlmes it Is just as apt to fail. BRANCH LIBRARY The purchase for the Reading Library of the building at Spring and Moss streets will assure a permanent branch library 'for residents of the northeastern Section, With a few alterations the building which formerly used by the Reading Relief Society, can be admirablyadapted to library purposes. 1 As a convenience to those who live a long distance from the main at Fifth and Franklin, the branch at Spring and Mosswill be greatly appreciated.

That it will be liberally patronized goes without saying. It ought to, and undoubted ly will result in largely increasing the number of persons who patronize the city's public library. GEN. LIGGETT Tn its move to secure permanent rank for Lieutenant General Hunter Liggett the Chamber of Commerce does a graceful and appropriate thing. Like all war heroes General Liggett is modest, and if securing congressional recognition depended upon himself it would not be forth coming.

The initiative must, there fore, be taken by his friends, and there are none who can do so more appropriately than those in his home town. No one will deny that General Liggett has won the right to advanced rank by reason of distln guished service to his country hut Congress is proverbially slow to act, and unless the matter is kept to the front it is likely to be passed by. Stimulated by the action of friends and public Rentirient generallyCon gressmarf Dewalt and Senators Pen rose and Knox can speedily secure recognition for Pennsylvania's great ildier. MONUMENTS We ara. accumulating some in this country that is, places that were the scenes of our history making.

And with time we will accumulate more of them, and there should be some system for preserving them future generations will remember us more kindly. Some of the best of our historic monuments have only been preserved through the patriotic efforts of individual citizens. Some of the best examples of our splendid colonial architecture, even public structures, have been ruined by ill advised changes additions, i The home and tomb of George AVashington was only saved by the efforts of one woman, Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham of Soujh Carolina. For 60 years after the death of General Washington the property was owned and occupied by John A. Washington, a nephew of the father of our country.

He offered the prop', rty to the government and then to the state of Virginia, but both offers wart declined. Miss Cunningham organized the Mt. Vernon Ladies' Association of the Union that paid $200,000 for the house and grounds in 1859 and large additional gum was expended in restoration. Thta organization holds title to the DUildlngs and 200,000 acres of land around them, and it is made up of a representative woman from each state in the An average of 13,000 persons visit Mt Vernon per month. An' admis sion fee of 25 cents, together with the income from endowment funds, mnnv items of the orierinal furnish ings have been reassembled.

The restoration of the mansion in dicates a close and intelligent study of the manner of building and land scape gardening of its tirne even to the care and way of trimming of the original box hedges with which Washington speaks such pride in some of his correspondence. Great precaution is taken against fire, at Mt. "Vernon, and a full set of drawings of all buildings have been made so that they can be replaced in exact duplicate if destroyed from any cause. A National Commission of Historic Monuments, if one is ever established in this country, ean well take pat tern from the organization that has extended Mt. Vernon into all tini.

TABLOIDS Force to the utmost is, all verjr well in a war against Huns, but It rather expensive as a method of deciding our own industrial Questions. We are told that VJt may be some time before Wilson is readme for duty. There is one consolation. It will be fully that long before the Senate is ready for duty. The other aviators should, have i known better than to enter a com petition with an orthodox and dained sky pilot.

Simple Way To End Dandruff or Senator Nelson speaXs for ever lasting peace. He carries a wound of war. A few spent in dodging bullets and scratching cooties would make league advo cates of all our statesmen. The Wilson plan to settle labor disputes through joint boards of em Caesar and Pershing had their brief day of glory, but they never pulled anything similar to the tri umphant return of Cincinnati Reds. If you would get wealth, manu facture or sell something people do not need and would be better off without.
