RENTED JEWELRY
TO VISIT THE KING
New Custom Noted in Ac-
tions of Those Who
Visited Court

LONDON, June IA new turn
in London's reaction 20 the royal
receptions this season. the first OF
which occurred a few nights ago,
was noted by observers OF the un-
usual and curious. For many years
70 has been the custom OF those who
attended the courts at Buckingham
palace for the first time to make
u midnight pilgrimage after the pal
ace affair ended TO the photog-
rnpher's shop In the west end where
u permanent record would be made
for tho benefit OF future genera
tions showing Just how father and
mother looked when they were pre-
sented to their majesties"
After this seasons first court the
other night, however, It was noticed
that number OF jewelers. shops
ia the Bond street district also
were open, and those who sought
an explanation OF these unscemly
shopping hours found the gorgeous
ly bedocked occupants OF numerous
closed motor cars were returning
tlaras, ropes OF pearls and other
Jewels they had rented for the eve
ning's wear at the court.
Tho trades unions OF England,
current developments show, are
passing through difficult times.
Their memberships have dropped
considerably during the year and
their financial position has become
worse. The unskilled workers un-
Ion apparently is the most affect
ed. The membership of the miners
unions, for instance, has declined
100000; that Of the general work
ers $4,000. and the railway mems
union 1000.
VIII Thorne, NJ. p. secretary OF
tho national union of general
workers. says the assets of that
union fell during last year from
f531.G73 to f272, ,I52 due TO the
partial stoppage Of manufacturing
after the war. a general slackening
iu trade, the payment Of urempiuv-
ment money to members. which
amounted TO 100000 in 1921. and
the fact that when the benefits
from the government ceased the
members were unable to continue
their contributions to the union.

SCHWENKER SHOE
STORE OPENING rs
VERY SUCCESSFUL

Formal opening of the new
SchWenker shoe store, 1911 Sec
ond avenue, yesterday, attracted
large numbers from city and coun-
try who admire the transformation
formerly occupied by the A. N
Reinert jewelry store which has
been converted into a modern foot
wear establishment.
Every caller received a tiny pair
of miniature rubber boots given as
a souvenir. Spring flowers and
plants were in evidence and with
a new stock lastly displayed on
shelving just installed by the j
Peterson Co. of Rock Island
everything presented a spick and
span appearance. Latest styles in
footwear were given a prominent
position in the windows. and the
trade was not slow to take advan-
tage of the bargains offered.
George II. Schwenker, the pro-
prietor, is assisted by an able sales
force, his brother Albert being as
sistant manager. Other statesmen
are Alfred A. Cullen and Celeste
P. Bueche. Miss Teresa A. Ill, is
to be added to the sales force in a
few days, she being at present con-
fined to her home with sickness.

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali, which
is very injurious. as it dries the
scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this IS
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap and beats anything else
all to pieces. You can get Mulsl-
fled at any drug store. and few
ounces will last the whole family
for months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls OF
Mulsified in cup or glass with a
little warm water is all that is re-
auired. 1t makes an abundance of
rich. creamy iather, cleanses thor
oughly, and rinses out easily. The
