    DRY-MINED COALMany years ago the Jeddo-Highland Coal Company blast ed aseven-foot tunnel through five and a half miles of solid rock.This tunnel drains the Jeddo-Highland mines, making it unnecessary to pump, and resulting in ideal working conditionsat all times.Any art icle produced under clean, comfortable surroundingsis, naturally, superior to one produced otherwise, and thi s isparticularly t rue in the case of coal, where, at best, the minershave to work under trying conditions.And this is one of the many important factors which, collectively, make Jeddo-Highland Coal the "Aristocrat of Anthracite."

    TN erect ing an edifice one never begins withthe roof. And in building a financial career

    one does not start in with high finance. Thatmay come later . But at the beginning a steady,sound foundation of savings is necessary. Letone of our deposit books be the cornerstone ofyour successful financial structure.

I understandthere ' are good and sufficient reasonswhy the Red Cross in this territorycannot be mer ged with t he Wel fa reFederation's Campaign.

The /ollowing is/rolll Presidellt's Serrill's ,cpo,t:"The backbone of our sources of income is as you all know t he WelfareFederation of Philadelphia. Our association takes an active part in the Welfare Federat ion's money-ra is ing campaign in our territory, and in return,as a member agency of the Federation,we r eceive a substantial part of ourtotal income. This co-operation withthe Welfare Federation is a very sat isfactory one. The consideration whiehtheir committee gives to our requestsis both sympathetic and liberal, and itgives me pleasure to extend the thanksof our association to the Federation.Especially do we ,thank Mr. ShermanC. Kingsley, executive secretary of theWelfare Federation, for his kind and

    considerate attitude."I said above that the \Velfare Federation's grant constitutes the backbone o f our financial suppor t. I u sedthe phrase advisedly, because the income thus received from t he Federation is by no means t he whole of ou rincome. In fact, and this may surprisesome of you, they rant from the Federatio n is a ct ua lly less than one-half ofthe total ineome which we receive anddisburse duri ng t he year. Whencethen does this addit ional income proceed? A brie f discussion of the several sources may be of interest."First, I must mention the MainLine Branch of the American RedCross. The financial help we receivefrom the Red Cross is of great importance in our work. Two of ourprincipal health centers, those in Ardmore and B ryn Mawr, could not be

    maintained with it."I t is well known that the Red Crossraises it funds in a campaign of itsown which it calls it Annual Roll Cal l.In a cer ta in sense the Red Cross RollCal l may be said to compete wit h t heWelfare Federat ion Campa ign in th is
