P. T. Barnum was a great show-
man, but that was before the days of
Bill Muller. Last Friday and Satur-
day the Narberth Players' twenty-
fifth production of "Sun Up" indi-
cated the rivalry the grand old circus-
man can expect in the future. W. H.
Muller's showmanship, if possible,
eclipsed all other features of one of
the finest performances the players
have given to date. The scenery, cos-
tumes, dialect, properties, lighting
and snow effects, and the final finish-
ing touch of hill-billy music by a local
orchestra place Mr. MuIler on a ped-
estal of showmanship that should
create envy in the hearts of other
nearby little theatre groups.
The scenery was outstanding. The
interior of the log cabin with exposed
beam and fireplace designed to the
utmost perfection by George Werner,
and the artistic finishing by Jack
Clarke that made the logs so true
even to the dovetailed corners and the
graining of the woodwork in the win-
dows and door created one wish, to

Two bills advocating the elimina-
tion of the eight-miJl personal prop-
erty tax on securities which yield no
dividends within the year, were in-
troduced to the State Legislature last
week by Lambert Cadwalader, of Vil-
lanova.
Cadwalader, as representative for
the First Legislative District, de-
clared that the bills answered a State-
wide protest against personal prop-
erty tax laws.
As the law now stands, Cadwala-
del' declares, it discriminates unjustly
against many thrifty but compara-
tively poor people who have put their
small savings into mortgages or other
interest-bearing bonds or dividend-
earning securities.
He pointed out that many of these
investments, once considered gilt-
edged securities, are now not earning
a penny.
"Yet their owners," he said, "thou-
sands of them people of small means,
are required under the present laws
to pay the unreasonable rate of eight
mills' tax on every dollar of their
unprofitable investment.
"Administration leaders talk much
of relieving the people of unjust bur-
dens," Cadwalader continued. "Here
is an opportunity for them to prove
their sincerity. If it is right to re-
lieve the million dollar bidder for
Government and State bonds from the
of any tax whatsoever on
the guaranteed interest he receives
from his investment, then it is cer-
tainly right to do as much for the
people who have put their money into

Flower Abundance for All
Occasions
By W. O. Hird
of I. N. Simon & Son
The highest ambition of the Home
Flower Grower, is to have an abun-
dance of flowers for all occasions,
and much of the delight in having a
garden comes from being able to sup-
ply fresh cut flowers for home decora-
tion, and at the same time to have a
fine outdoor display. Annuals are
the cheapcst of all garden flowers,
and a careful selection of varieties
can be made to meet all requirements,
and give a profusion of blooms ft'om
early summer to late in the fall.
Annuals are divided into two gen-
eral groups-the Hardy and the Half
Hardy or tender varieties. The
Hardy varieties should be sown out-
doors any time after the middle of
April; the Half Hardy varieties
should be started indoors any time
during ·l\1arch and April, or they can
be sown outdoors after the first of
May.

Girl Scouts are one of the 141 agen-
cies in an organization which is try-
ing to give the youth of the commu-
nit)· the experience which will train
them to be intelligent participating
citizens. Our achievement and suc-
cess can only come when gil'l scouting
is seen as an essential part of the
whole picture of community better-
ment. All the financial support ex-
cept for the outdoor program, comes
from this fund.
The largest Patrol Leaders' Con-
ference ever held on the Main Line
took place at the Bryn Mawr Pres-
byterian Church. Forty-eight girls
were present and both the younger
and the older groups were repre-
sented equally. Many excellent sug-
gestions were made for district pro-
jects. Some of the most popular
ones were: a district amateur hour,
an outdoor swimming meet at Mar-
tin's Dam, a barn dance, Day Camp
again this summer, and a hostel trip
over the Horseshoe Trail.
In the near future, Miss Pauline
