HAM ADVOCATES
 BRICK BUILDINGS

No city has ever grown big where wood construction is allowed, is the opinion of all city planners accord ing fo William H. Ham the manager of the Bridgeport Housing Company.
 Why Bridgeport should allow the construction of building of wood when there is such an abundant sup Div of brick available is a mystery to him.
 Wooden buildings of the cheaper sort depreciate so fast that after ten years their appearance alone has a depressing effect on strangers, and the first cost of a brick building is only s150 family more, while the expense of repairs is so much small CT. that he cannot see why builders and owners do not build in brick, al though they are not compelled to do so by a city ordinance.
 ''BuiId in Brick he says should be Bridgeport's slogan for the flu ture.

Grover Clark, with the 41st infan-
try, was at camp Funston, just ar
rived a short time before from TT.
Smelling and the change Of quarters
filled them all with disgust. Funs-
ton he says, seemed to them the end
of creation.
Charles Cummings, at Camp Hos
pital 26 at Meyer, France, celebrated
at the home of a French family
whose little son he had helped care
for after an automobile accident.
The little fellow was taken to the
U. s. hospital where he had to lie
,bed for weeks with one of his legs
tied to the ceiling. The boys used
to visit with him and bring him
sweets. They admired his good ma
ture and fortitude. He never let
out whimper.
Charlie and his pals also had "A
ward in the little person Of French
girl refugee, who was adopted by a
French woman in their neighbor-
hood. They gave the foster mother
beaucoup francs to help dress and
| care for the youngster. Charlie has
a doll to send to the small
mademoiselle and is only waiting till
he meets someone who can write the
letter in French to go along with it.
Mark Tuohy spent his second
army Christmas at Guantanamo,
Cuba, where with small detach-
ment of marines he was putting in
his time patrolling a region dotted
with sugar factories. Mark rode
sixty miles all over the country
horseback the day before Christmas
in search of turkeys for the big mess.
After many wild goose chases he
came back to camp weary that night
with the turkeys.
Albert Jones remembers a pleas
ant Christmas day spent at La Havre
France. They had big feed at the
camp and visited around the city in
the afternoon.
I, myself, was also happy on.
Christmas day. With few other
sad-eyed casuals had been dumped
into damp barracks at Camp Genicart,
Bordeaux on the evening when stock
ings are supposed to be hung, and
there we were to await shipment.
Christmas day was especially glad
day because we were promised the
shipping tags on the twenty-sixth.
So we packed to lively tune, stood
inspection, went thru the "delouser,"
had our physical examinations, ate
the contents of our Y. M. c. A.
packages, had the regular mess Of
beans or slum-gullion or something
like that and in these may ways
passed the day. That is the end Of
the story. We didn't go the next day,
nor the day eafter, nor the week
after, but five weeks later. But we
did enjoy Christmas all the same.

Bobbie Robbins was homeward
bound, with the 145th F. A. They
sailed out of Bordeaux on the day
before Christmas. That evening Bob
suffered first attack OF sea-slck-
ness. The, next day was Christmas
and when the boys heard there was
turkey for mess they all climbed out
of their hunks and got into line, the
sick, the lame and the halt, and Bob
yas one of them, one of the sick.
He said the line was long and moved
slowly. When he was. half way to

he gave up and went back to bed.
He was very sick.
Leroy Jones was at Camp Meade,
va. He had the exceptional good
fortune (what?) to be on kitchen
police duty on Christmas. Well, as
they say in the army, somebody has
to do it.
Raymond E. Stephens was at Toul,
France, attached to Evacuation Hos
pital No. l.. On Christmas the Red
Cross sent the boys nice Woolen
socks filled with candy.
Harry Clark was at Funston with
the goth infantry. They had good
dinner.

This team had one strong point
and it contributed largely if not en-
tirely to the final triumph, that is,
team work. The boys played as a
unit, and this must be credited to-
Coach Handkerchief, for it is the duty
of the coach to make a team play
that way.
Manager Charles Eichelberger,
principal of the high school and AS
sistant Manager Burk both worked

water not passing through a creased
layer. If this protection be removed or
absent the atmosphere, especially if
windy, will speedily extract water and
leave the skin harsh and rough,
i:cliapped' according tp common ter
minology. Hence it is important not to
remove too much grease, and this is
done by somewhat sparing hot water
and soap before venturing out of doors.
IN the case of abnormally dry skins it

cocoa butter to limited extent.
For those able to react, cold bath
or shower is one of the best skin, and

Iced to chapping. However, many per-
sons do not react, and in them a cold
bath is distinctly bad, for depression
rather than exhilaration follows. Soft
water is best, that is water free from
magnesium or calcium carbonate. The
objection to hard water is that it com
bines with soap to form white pre-
'cipitate, calcium soap The easiest
way to render water soft is by boiling
it, for by this procedure free carbonic
acid gas is driven off.
The addition of salt to baths is of no
kalies, and viii dissolve out some of

mended. Mud baths are of no value to
the skin.
Much utter nonsense<is believed about
the different worths of soaps. The best
soap is a good soaprmade by reputa-
BILE manufacturer at a fair price. The
cheap soaps are bad because of an ex-
cess Of alkali, and the expensive soaps
are usually made from the same stock
as the medium priced soaps, but
wrapped and scented trifie differently.
CASTLE soap is still much in great vogue,
but it is made in many different places
by many different manufacturers and
differs much in value. Good tar soap is
excellent for washing the hair The So
called green soap is a potash soap and
makes an excellent shampoo. Medical
ed scans are of no value except for the
soap itself. .>e
A small amount Of powder is not
harmful to the complexion except when
added upon some grease. Almost any
good powder may be used. Powdering
of the body is distinctly beneficial, es-
pecially in hct weather, when it will
often prevent irritation and aid in
evaporation. =.
