Shirts.

The onward march of civilization
has its obstacles.
Shirts being made for men and
not men for shirts, every time man
gets a new shirt or one comes back
from the laundry the moral uplift
needs the application of the safety
brake and emergency clutch to keep
us from dropping into the cellar
again
Shirts are made of various kinds Of
materials. After the sewing is fin
ished they are left for few hours in
strong mixture of glue and concrete.
This fastens the back to the bosom
and sticks the sleeves together. But
ton holes are then made in the neck
band, and the band is then STEPPED in
cement so that the buttonholes cannot
be opened. The bosom is then adorn-
ed with buttons. These buttons are
sewed on with one weak thread, so
that when you try to button the shirt,
after having pried It apart with a pa
per knife and strong language, the
buttons will fly away merrily.
Shirts that are Numbered are al
ways sent back with the lower button
buttoned in, and all the buttonholes
glued tight.
Dress shirts are made with veneered
bOsOms, with little round holes where
the studs are only supposed to be
placed These bosoms are absolutely
inf1exible, and the studs cannot be in
serted without the aid of sledge ham
mer, which is damaging to the dispo-
sition

c. A. R. VETERANS
To MEET IN This
CITY ON SATURDAY
Will Gather at City Hall Next Saturday
at One O'Clock to Discuss Plans
for Organizing Union Post.

Commander Wales of the Imperial
Post, Grand Army of the Republic, has
arranged for meeting of veterans of
the Civil War to be held at the city
hall in Ell Centro next Saturday af-
ternoon at l o'clock. The purpose of
this melting is to discuss a plan for
the organization of a union post for
all parts of the valley, with alternate
meetings to be held at Imperial and
Ell Centro.
No one point in the valley at pres
ent has sufficient number of Civil
War veterans to maintain a post by
itself. 1t has been decided that a
union of all veterans here will be the
means of maintaining an active post,
and that alternate meetings at the
two largest towns of the valley will
prove convenient to the veterans and
keep up the interest.
About thirty veterans of the Civil
War are now residing in Imperial VAL
ley. Six of these are residents of Ell
