on the Constitutionalist chief with
words OF warning and admonition.

E. MOLINE COMMERCIAL
CLUB CREATES OFFICE

Announcement is made by officials
of the East Moline Commercial club
that the office of recording secretary
has just been created owing to the
rapid growth of the organization =.
r. Cox, who has held the Office of sec
rotary and treasurer for some time,
finds of late that his duties are more
than one man can well handle, and the
additional office is therefore formed.
Selection of a man to fill the office has
not yet been made, but members of
the club will probably act on this mat
ter at the next meeting

WILL TAKE PART
Big Event to Be Staged in Mis-
sissippi River Off Camp
bells Island.

Miss Dagmar Johnson of Sweden
champion lady swimmer OF that coun-
try and generally conceded one of the
best female swimmers of the world, is
in Moline and will enter several events
to be staged off Campbells island
Sunday in the Mississippi river. n
program of aquatic sports has been
arranged for the afternoon and will be
one of the biggest features at the isl
and this season.
Miss johnson has never tried her
skill in fresh water, having always per
formed in the salt water of the ocean,
but nevertheless she is of the opinion
that she can do as well in fresh wa
ter.
The main event of the afternoon in
which Miss Johnson Will compete is
the free-for-all swim across the river.
Three other entries have been receiv-
ed. two from well known swimmers of
East Moline. and the other from Fred
Bowling. the one-armed expert, who
hung up a record recently of 10 min
utes from the Iowa shore to the island
Another entry. which has not yet been
officially announced but is expected by
the program committee, is that of Pro-
fessor Thor Norberg, member of the
famous Swedish Olympic swimming
team of 1908. Liberal prizes have
been offered the winners and doubtless
some of the best swimmers in the
country will take part.

WEAR THE SHOES
OUR Fathers DID
Prospect Ahead of American,
if the War Continues
for Long.

The war will have a marked ca.
on all leather goods, especially sboss
and articles made from calf skin an,
goat skin, both of which raw produce,
are imported from the countries nov
at war.
Not only will the supply Of calf and
goat skins be cut off, but the tanners
will not be able to get the dyes tbsv
need for tanning processes. Thess
dyes are made chiefly in Germany
Philadelphia tanner thus explained
the situation:
''If this war keeps up and We can.
not get chemicals needed for TANNING
we will have to shut down our busj.
ness. Practically IS per cent of the
chemicals used in tanning comes from
Germany. There are few factories
for the manufacture of the aniine
dyes in this country. Furthermore
we get from Germany the albumens
we need for finishing the leather.
eff we don't get the dyes we can
not continue in business. Further.
more, we make a specially OF fine
leather produced from goat skins and
calf skins. We have supply OF
those skins to last US about four
months. but after that We cannot 20
on unless we can get supplies from
Mexico and Brazil"
With the stopping of the imports o.
the hides and skins from which the
fancy shoes are made, it was said, Il
will be necessary for Americans on
dress occasions to wear the old fash
toned leather shoe. There viii be few
patent leather shoes, few shoes with
fancy kid tops and few of the dainty
shoes that women have been accus-
toned to wear. The only shoes that
will be available will be shoes made
from western or Argentine hides.
