silk velvet is as smart as any Of them
and is used to duplicate models fash

also exceedingly fashionable for separ-

THE HOSPITAL TAX

mill on the dollar valuation would be
sufficient for the needs Of the insti-
buttons engaged in charitable work of
the county, while IL would only re-

for the charitable work done by the
Ohio Valley General Hospital, IL in
line with the suggestions made by

advocacy of a county tax in aid OF

such that charitable work enforces

In considering the legislation TO
be offered in Congress the import
ance OF securing a naval reserve is
TO be distinctly separated from
the subject of a naval auxiliary.
a naval auxiliary means the ships
themselves; a naval reserve is
composed Of the men on the ships.
