CITY Of Wheeling

Wheeling. W. Va, March "a. 1919.
Hon c.. Q. Maggie.
City Manager.
City Of Wheeling.
Dear Sir:-Promptly after our ap-
puintment as 4 water commission for
the city Of Wheeling. we met in May.
1918. and outlined our work. We con-
sidered that our task was to consider,
not only the question Of procuring pure
water but that our efforts should be
directed toward recommending Il quality
of water best ada pied for this manufart-
urinE community. that it should he pro-
durable in sufficient quantity and that
il should hc distributed cconomica;iy.
We. therefore. set about studying tho
water question in all its phases. with
particular reference to conditions such
as exist in Wheeling not only AT the
present time. hut with a reasonably safe
margin fer our probable needs of the
future. We studied all available re-
ports. including: The Johnson, holman
and Cooke report. tho tookeSmith re-
port. the G. c. Smith report, and others.
We made personal visits. first, to our
own pumping station and reservoir. and
then to the following cities: ColumDu:.,
Eric, Stcubcnvillc. ParkcrShurE rl;rS-
hurgh. Williamsburg. Martins Ferry and
Belaire. o. In all of these We examined
the filtration pumping and disl rihutinE
systems. noting the source and Condi-
ton of the raw water. also it's condi-
iion. as Delivered for domestic and in-
duStrial use. and the cost Of it's treat
ment and supply.
Completing These Investigations we
compared our experience and nbSorva-
ton, with the result that We unani-
nous in decla ring our recommendation
as to the best system Of water supply
for the city Of Wheeling
We arrived at our decision .naiaiy
through a process of elimination. We
considered each system proposed care
fully with the single view of. lirSt. uD-
tanning the hest system for Whcet.EE:
second, making certain that the sup
ply would be adequate for The present
and elastic enough 10 expand for the
future; and. third. securing this AT ii
cost as low as compatible with safety.
The so-called Smith" system was rho
first to be eliminated. We learned that
considerable dissatisfaction has devrl-
oped with its use in Parkc"Sburg, and
that officials Of that city arc now con-
templating repairs to tho system go OK
tensive as to require .coffcr-damming
the river. Besides. we understand that
the West Virginia state board of health
would not grant approved Of the in
staliation OF such a system here. and

Bleach for Dark Skin

To the Editor Of Womdn's Page:
Dear Madam--Will you kindly sug
gest harmless bleach for the neck and
face? Afso, can you suggest something
that will bring some color to my face
My skin is very sallow. Is there any
possible way of getting rid of black
heads and large pores? l have tried
about everything of which ! have heard
but nothing seems to do any good.
MRS. J. NJ.
Lemon juice is considered good and
harmless bleach for the face and neck
Use a reliable facial soap every night
in order to get rid of blackheads. and
also to bring color to your face. Wash
your face and neck with this soap,
making thick lather with hot water.
Rub it in well, then rinse it off and
bathe with cold water. Always rub
upward and outward when you use the
soap, as that will stimulate the circula
ton and give you color. Have you
tried rubbing your face with ice to re-
fine your skin and get rid of the large
pores? That has often been found sat
isfactory:. Use the treatment after you
have washed your face, as l sug-
gested. Or else try zinc ointment, ap-
plying a thick coat of it, and allowing
it to remain on the face overnight. If
any of this treatment seems to make
your skin dry, rub on some cold cream
afterward. Plenty of Ahtdoor exercise,
plenty of sleep and n diet that includes
many greens will give color.

TEIERE are. TO be sure. many frocks
- that are collarlcss; in fact, this
fashion is by no means dead; but there
arc, certain styles which do need the
dainty collar, as we'll as many women
who need the softening effect of the
collar. Then. too. the necklne is much
lower this season. and the women, aside
from what is the fashion, feel more
comfortable with some sort of collar
as n neck finish. At any rate, there
never were dantier or prettier collars
offered than are shown by the shops
this spring.
All the dainty cottons, as well as
silks, laces. cmbroidcries and satins.
are brought into play for the construc-
tion of the new neckwear. Organdics.
laces and fine embroidery are consid-
cred the smartest for the spring and
summer.
In the center of the drawing today
is shown collar and cuff set of white
organdie combined with a printed or
candle in flower design. The collar is
of white organize. with a smaller one of
printed organdie. Small buttons Gov
cred with organdie trim the front Of
the collar. For the cuffs the lowered
organdie is used for the band, and the
mare is of the white organdie.

Red Cross Accents Clothes

To the Editor Of Womdn's Page:
Dear Madam wrote to you on April
%. Will you please tell me if the Red
Cross is still receiving used clothing
for overseas? Also tell me the address
of the Red Cross. l have not seen
the answer in the EVENING PUBLIC
LEDGER.
There is another question I would
like to ask. l have IA dollar bill. One
end has been torn off and lost. viii
the banks give me one in exchange?
40.
The Red Cross is still willing and glad
to accept used clothes for refugees over
seas. Send them to the American Red
Cross, 1615 Chestnut street. If you
have three sixths of a dollar bill it is
still good, and the bank will give you
another one in exchange. But as it is
pretty hard, to measure exactly three
sixths of n dollar bill. you will have to
take it to the bank to prove that you
have that much. Your letter of April
- must have been lost in email. for
I have no recollection of having received
it. 1t is too bad you have had to wait
SO long for an answer.
