EFFICIENT IRON HANDY THESE DAYS The new Edison electric iron, which a West Center-at store is displaying, represents another step forward in household efficiency.

FLAPPER ITCH DUE TO SHAVING NECK PITTSBURGH, Pa., Aug. 20. Other and more bothersome style nuisances than fur chokers are encircling the necks of Pittsburgh flappers this Summer, according to Chief of Police Surgeon Daniel Sable. "Flapper itch" is the newest trouble to locate on or about that part of the neck just below where the young girl's brain is supposed to be, and Dr. Sable asserts it's getting serious. The malady—which has affected hundreds of women, particularly girls of high-school age—was discovered by Dr. Sable while he was on vaccination duty. It is caused by frequent neck-shaving required for the perfect bobbed-hair effect. "Flapper's rash" is another name for it. "The tender skin of young girls is severely affected by frequent shaving," Dr. Sable declared. "The only cure is to discontinue shaving."

The blouse is well-made and the tie furnishes just enough color. The schools are about to open, and this store at one stroke solves the mother's problem of how to dress her boy cheaply and attractively without going to three or four different establishments.

A prominent dry said Wednesday: Dupe People "An attempt is being made to dupe the people. The whole wet-anddry question is no longer a moral issue but a patriotically economic one. There would be little if any loss degree of drinking if a city size of Anaheim was placed on such a hash Rather, there would be the tendency to increase consumption of food stuffs in liquor when purchasers could buy only in wholesale lots.

BIG DEMAND FOR EUCA-LEMO SOAP Euca-Lemo toilet soap and the five other products manufactured by the company are in greater demand at one rather prominent Anabiem store than are all other makes of soap combined. E. H. Segerstrom, head of the company, was told recently. The six articles are being manufactured by hand and sold in limited lots. Segerstrom added. The concern has never really gotten a fair start, because of failure of capital to be realized. The toilet soap, which makes the use of lemons for the hands unnecessary, is especially popular with the ladies. According to Secretary George W. Reid of the Anaheim C. of C., a soap factory is one of the most practicable industries that could be established here.

The day has been set by the War department for Sept. 12, with approval of President Coolidge. The leaders in the arrangements for the day consist through the country, mainly of the American Legion, but civic committees are in charge of the actual preparations.
