Scratching Increases the Irrita- tion of the Delicate
 Skin Tissues

You can claw your nails into your skin until it bleeds, in an effort to ob- tain relief from the fiery itching and burning caused by skin diseases, but you only increase the irritation and pain.
 And you can pour oirtments. salves and lotions by the gallon on the irri- tated parts, without obtaining anything but temporary relief Just as soon as the strength of the counter irritant gives out, your pain and torture will return with increased violence. because these lotion remedies have not cached the source of the trouble.

War CampCol .u4..- Serv- ice Building to Have All Facilities of Modern
 Club Rooms

Big things for Birmingham are being planned by the war camp community service and the entire building on Fourth avenue and Twentieth street has been rented by the organization and will De known hereafter as the War Camp Com munity Service building. At various times the clubrooms have been used by the Elks, Shriners and Phoenix club. Dur ing the time that the latter mentioned club occupied these rooms, Joe Love- man was married there
 The entire second floor will be utilized as an office and headquarters, while cafateria, canteen, and dormitory TOT soldiers, sailors and marines will also be located on this floor. One room will be equipped with pool and billiard tables
 At the cafateria and canteen the boys will be sold food and smokes for absolute cost, while the dormitory will contain about five cots, which will be used Dy men forced to spend the night in Blr- mingham. If the boys are able charge of from IS to 25 cents will be made for the bed, with bath facilities.
 READING ROOMS
 On the third floor spacious reading rooms have been fitted up, as well as a room where various indoor games may be played. The dance hall will be re- modelled and number of dances will be given here for ex-service men and their young lady friends. A committee of Bir- mingham women will be appointed to act as chaperones for these dances, which will be conducted along the lines of all entertainments given by this organiza- tion- These dances will be absolutely free to the men who must either be in uniform or wear a war camp community discharge pin, which may be secured at headquarters for 10 cents. This button is a badge of honor and when wearing it will be entitled to all privileges offered at the clubroons.
 The young women of Birmingham will be given cards permitting them to at tend the dances
 If men fail to comply with rules they are given their money back and their button is taken up This is done so as to make these dances just what they should be and thus cast no reflection on the war camp community service organ ization.
 FORMAL OPENING
 K. F. Smith, community organizer who has charge of the work in Birmingham, stated that plans were being made to have a formal opening on Saturday night when a dance will be given in the new home. This, however has not been de1l- nitely decided on account of the arrival of the fixtures for the kitchen and cafe teria.
 Miss Mildred E. Cherry, of Galveston, Texas, will arrive today to be official hostess at headquarters. Miss Cherry has been hostess of the war camp community service headquarters in Galveston foi several months and comes to Birming- ham highly recommended.

that was combed into loose, soft
fringe. Another dressmaker used
white monkey fur, combed out to
look like ostrich flues, on evening
gowns of tulle and metallic tissue,
and the best of the milliners used the
white monkey fur as a means of ac-
centuating broad -brimmed black vel
vet hats. The milliners, however, did
not use squirrel as much as one ex-
pected: they left that to the dress
makers.
Lanvin, who added to her pannier
collection of gowns an equally in
teresting one of fifteenth century
Italian frocks, used squirrel in sharp
ly cut Florentine designs on black
velvet or duvetyn. In some one
piece frocks, mainly OF Italian origin,
there would be wide, funnel-shaped
sleeves that were almost totally of
squirrel.
Next to these two furs came Mon
collie, and 1t has been widely taken
up in America. We knew 1t best
when 1t served for lap robes in baby
carriages. Now it has been raised
to the level of the coon and the
possum. 1t is long and curly, it is
rather coarse and heavy. but It is
used for cape collars, for entire even

the Paris furriers was strikingly ex-

commonplace peltries into something

Frederick Albert Cook claimed 10

sent this message to the world but a
few days before news came, from Perry
that he had discovered the pole. After
an Immense amount OF discussion II
was decided that Cooks proofs were
not sufficient. so Peary has been hailed
as the real discoverer. =
Cook was born In Sullivan county,
New York. A facetious biographerer

exploration by being a milk man In
his youth and by trotting about at
dawn, thru the winter countryside.
However, II that Is 80. he did not stay
at the Job for he came to New York
and was graduated from a medical
college. He was appointed surgeon
on Peary's Arctic expedition and on
the Belgian Antarctic expedition, for
which 10 was made g chevalier cf the
Order OF Leopold. He went on inre-
pendent explorations and claimed to
have reached the North Pole In April.
1908. Nothing had been heard OF him
since March, and he was supposed to
have persisted. The news. followed as
II was In few days by Peary's mes
sage. created an immense sensation.
Copenhagen in particular feted Cook
as the great hero. But a board Of in
