ARMORY PLAN
SAVES MONEY
Col. Jones Says Guard
Quarters Could Be in Pro-
O. posed Convention Hall.


The only chance of securing a
District Guard Armory is through
such a plan as the proposed con-
vention hall. which could readily
be combined convention hall and
armory." said Col Winfield Jones
of the National Guard COM
mittee of the Chamber of Com
merce, yesterday. commenting on
the prospects of suitable housing
facilities for the District Guards.
Col. Jones stated that after four
years the committee had succeeded
in getting before Congress a re-
quest for S1,OO0,OOO for an armory,
but this failed in the public build
ings bill Of last session.
Il have been informed" continued
Col. Jones, by Congressional lead
ers of both parties that there is
small prospect of passage of a pub
lie buildings bill containing appro-
priations for new public buildings
for many years. because of the
heavy postwar expenses of the gov
ernment."
In conclusion Col Jones declared
the District Guards will never
amount to anything until they have
suitable armory. The present
armory, he said. is a disgrace to the
guard and the Capital.

Look Out for
Your Rheumatism

while it is capable of offering less
resistance?
Rheumatism has offered much
latitude for speculation among the
medical profession. and they are
not yet sure of all of its various
causes. 1t seems generally accepted,
however, that some forms of the
disease are caused by a tiny germ
in the blood. The only proper
treatment, therefore, for such cases,
is a remedy which effectively
cleanses the blood, and routs out
the germs which cause Rheumatism.
This accounts for the fact that
the use of hniments, lotions and
other local treatment can only re-
suit in disappointment, because
such remedies can have no effect
whatever upon the blood.
S.S.S. has given splendid results
in so many cases of Rheumatism
that its use would seem indicated
in almost every instance, especially
where the disease is due to a germ
infested blood condition. S.S.S. is
a splendid blood purifier and sys-
TEN builder, and has a record of
more than fifty years of success
full use.
Take advantage of the favorable
weather conditions, and begin treat.
ing your Rheumatism with S.S.S.
today. You can get it at any drug
store. For free medical advice,
write fully about your own case to

The suggestion of Clarence B.
