No Wrath On Their
art, Women Declare

Emphatic denials that there is
any bitterness toward the Com
mercial club over the loss sus-
tanned by the performance given
in the Stadium on the afternoon
Of July 4, divided the floor with
equally emphatic assertions that
the blame lies with the public,
which prefers locomotive coils
ions to Industrial Pageants. at the
meeting of the committees of
Mary Ball chapter, ID. A. r., and
the Women's Clubhouse associa-
ton this morning.
Some of the papers have
grossly misrepresented both The
amount of the loss, and our feel
ing about it, declared Mrs. J. W.
Brokaw. Not all the bills have
come in yet. so the amount can
not be exactly known. 1t will
probably be between $500 and
5000. We blame no organization.
We snail pay the bills. and feel
that we did we'll in giving a per-
Torrance Of that character, even
at a loss.
Mrs. Brokaw denied interviews
to the effect that the women
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1916-07-07

blame the Commercial club for
the financial failure of the per-
Torrance.
In all probability only a few
members of the Commercial club
knew of the arrangements OF the
Festo committee she said. The
first indication we had that we
were not part of the Official
celebration was when we tried TO
get the program advertising we
had counted on to help pay eX-
penses, and found the merchants
had already given their advertis-
ing to the official program" and
therefore had none for us.
by comparing our pitiful lit
tie expenditures with those of he
Festo committee, it will be seen
that we were not eXtravagalt.
The auto bill was exaggerated.
1T is commercialism, not pa
triotism, that extends Tacoma's
Fourth of July over three or four
days, and then allows a perform
ance like the one at the Speedway
to occur at the same time as one
like the Pageant. But we do not
blame anybody. The people SIM
ply preferred a head-on collision.

An Easy Way TO
Increase Weight
Good Advise for Thin Folks

Good Advise for Thin Folks
The trouble with most thin
folks who wish to gain weight is
that they insist on drugging their
stomach or stuffing it with
greasy foods; rubbing on useless
flesh creams" or following some
foolish physical culture stunt,
while the real cause of thinness
goes untouched. You cannot get
fat until your digestive tract as
similates the food you eat.
There is a preparation known
to reliable druggists almost ev-
erywhere which seemingly en-
bodies the missing elements
needed by the digestive organs to
help them convert food into rich,
fat-laden blood. This modern
treatment is called Sargol and
has been termed the greatest
of flesh-builders. Sargol aims
through regeneration, recon-
struction powers to coax the stom-
ach and intestines to literally
soak up the fattening elements of
your food and pass them into the
blood, where they are carried to
the starved, broken-down cells
and tissues of your body. You
can readily picture what result
this amazing Transformation
should produce as with increased
weight the cheeks fill out, hollows
about neck, shoulders and bust
disappear and from 10 to 20
pounds of solid, healthy flesh is
added to the body. Sargol is alb
solutely harmless, inexpensive, eff
ficient. Crown Drug Co. and 9TH
er leading druggists of this vicin-
ity have 1t and will refund your
money ii you are not satisfied, as
per the guarantee found I'M every
package.
NOTE:-Sargol is. recommend
ed only as a flesh builder and
while excellent results in cases of
nervous indigestion, ETC., have
been reported care should be TAX
en- about using it unless a gain of
weight is desired.

Special Policeman Jesse c.
Pierce, 1851 South Monroe street,
at 4 o'clock this morning.
Officer Pierce is one of the
specials given employment on the
police department since the long
shoremen's strike developed
alarming proportions. He was
on duty at a waterfront ware
house, and his wife was visiting
relatives at McCleary, Wash,
when the fire occurred.
Neighhors discovered the
blaze only after one side of the
house was completely in flames.
Pierce was formerly an electrical
lineman. He says that he has
made no arrests of longshoremen
since the strike began, or done
anything to arouse their personal
ire towards him, so far as he can
tell.
