 To Help Keep You Clean

 The Laundrymens National Association of America has been inspired by all the refining processes of civilization and joy fully assisted in banlshing the shirt with the glossy finish-the finish that meant polishing ruinous to linen. It has revo- lutionized family habits and methods. made clean linen constant and ever recurring quantity; and banished the an- noyances of wash day. It has served the men and converted the women, enlisted the interest and patronage of the en- tire family. In short, 1t has raised, purl- fled and expanded laundry service until it has become a necessary and matter-of- fact incident in every household man. sgement.
 The association wants you to have just the service it advocates whether your weekly package includes merely a few collars and shirts or is a bundle of many kinds of garments. If you are not get ting this service you should make a care ful examination of the laundries in your town and pick out the one that Is modern In method, open to inspection, sanitary in conduct and alert to all the progress sive means and measures applicable to it's business.
 The Laundrymen's National Association of America Is not boosting any special. laundry. Its purpose is educational. It merely wants you to know about this great movement in the laundry world, what 1t should be credited with and what 1t stands for. They who would keep you clean stand for service and they want you to benefit by that service.
 If you want to know more about the importance of the laundry industry of America, write to

 OPENS AUGUST ID Is Chicago's Greatest Mid Summer Spectacle and
 Entertainment

Chicago August 3,-(SpeciaL) Chicago s greatest midsummer spectacle and en- tertainment opens here in one week. The elaborate water carnival and naval re- view will be presented off Grant Park on the lake front. Although it is to be essen tially a Chicago affair, number of other cities and even foreign, nations will par tfcipate
 William Hale Thompson, commodore of the Associated Yacht and Power Clubs of America, is at the head of arrangements. The Association of Commerce has entered into the spirit of the promotion with much enthusiasm, with the result that Chicago is promised the most pretentious enter tainment of this character ever attempted.
 The exhibition is to include exhibits by the United States navy, the Navy Train ing school from the north shore, the naval reserve, the life saving service, the rev. enue cutter service, and many other branches of the outdoor government service. There is also to be an interna- tional race between the Royal Canadian Yacht club and the Chicago Yacht club, as well as a number of high power gaso- line boat races. There is to be 50 foot power boat in these races which can do who desires 2 to see
 Entries of speed boats have been re- ceived from Canada the Pacific coast, Att lantic coast Mississippi valley, England snd possibly an entry from Germany and one from France. A grandstand Is to be built upon the government pier with plenty of accommodations for every one who desires osee.
 President Thompson, in speaking of the prizes, said:
 Tn the way of prizes our business men have been most generous. William Wrig- ley, Jr., made this great event possible by giving what is represented to be a s22000 prize. This was originally a 5000 trophy to be raced for annually but when

Do you know that several thousand business men have banded together tc help keep you clean? No insinuations are intended: neither is the matter humorous It is a big, serious faet-one of the most significant in modern business.
 The members of the Laundrymen's Ma tional Association of America are the men who have. so to speak. started a cam paign for cleanliness and they include as keen, earnest and capable business men as you can find anywhere in this country.
 These men want you to have clean col- lars and clean shirts. They see to 1t that you get them-and more. too.
 They are modern laundrymen who have made study of this young but rapidly developing profession. They understand the advantages of scientic application, ot modern machinery, of sanitation. They are progressive, alert, eager, open to all the ideas and means of progress that can be applied tot their business.
 That is why they insist on having your shirt and your collar right They insist on giving 1t the right domestic finish and they insist, also, that every detail shall be just so.
 Laundering linen has become an art and a science combined. and 1t is to foster the right processes and to exploit the right kind of laundry that the Laundry mems National association was formed.
 Perhaps you have never realized just how much there is to the laundry bus mess when 1t is properly conducted Pos sibly you have, on occasions, sent your dress shirt to the laundry moment or two after you found you would need it and then expected it to get back on time and in first-class condition.
 It takes system to produce results when such demands are made. It means that a perfect system is employed when you

A NEW TURN OF SENTIMENT.

In the ruck of criticism from the
public regarding the alleged traffic agree
ment between the New Haven and
the Grand Trunk systems concerning
the Boston and Providence ports, the
mass of the reproach has been heaped
upon the head of President Mellen of
the New Haven, while the commisera-
ton has been extended to President
Chamberlain OF the Grand Trunk since
it was inferred that ne was outmanoeu-
vered by his competitor for New Eng
land traffic. Now, however, there comes
a new turn of sentiment and it is
limited that instead of being the club
Der President Mellen was actually the
dubbed, as we note from the follow
ing paragraph in the Springfield, Mass,
Republican: "Mr. Mellen commands in
slant respect in asking permission to
testify before the federal grand jury
regarding the Grand Trunk negotia-
tons and at the same time offering
to waive immunity privileges, so far
as any. future. criminal. prosecution is
concerned. There are those who believe
they are for the most part in Con-
necticut-that in the Grand Trunk bus
mess the New Haven system has been
simply dubbed and blackmaled. Mr..
Mellen ought to be able to show that
it is true, if true it isl
After all has been revealed that is
destined to be revealed it is probable
that the discovery will be made that
