F|J||AN DIES OF
WHITE MANS
DISEASE
Civilization conquers Brown
Skin Who Quit Islands ).
to See World

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. a.
Civilization was today the conqueror
Of Jim Brown, brown-skinned Fiji
Islander, the victim of a fate that
carried him from the waving palms
Of his native home to die of white
mems disease in the charity ward
Of a local hospital.
Jim Brown - whose real name
was Manataba, broad eyes," to
those who speak his language
died of tuberculosis following an
unsuccessful struggle against ways
of which he knew little.
Matanaba had a few friends to
mourn for him as the plain casket
was lowered into the Potter's Field
-brown-skinned, like himself, most
OF them, although there were one
or two white persons who had
tried to aid him as he tossed In
delirfum in the little room where
he was found.
In November, 1922, Matanaba
shipped as member Of the crew
Of the British schooner Speedway
Fiji to San Francisco and return.
But there was no return.
The crew was paid off in San
Francisco, and Manataba, unable
to understand the language, had
difficulty in finding work. Weak.
ened from lack Of food. he hurt
himself when finally he did find q
job and died in the County Hospi.

FLAPPER. Gil
LAID TONECK
SHAVING
New Malady Said to Be
Reaching Serious Pro-
portions Now
BY international News Service.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. IA
Other and more bothersome style
nuisances than fur chokers are en-
circling the necks of Pittsburgh
flappers this summer, according to
Chief Of Police Surgeon Daniel
Sable.
"Flapper itch" is the newest
trouble to locate on or about that
part of the neck just below where
the young girls brain is supposed
to be, and Doctor Sable asserts it's
getting serious.
The n1alady-which has affected
hundreds of women, particularly
girls of high-school age-was dis
covered by Doctor Sable while he
was on vaccination duty. 1t is
caused by frequent neck-shaving
required for the perfect bobbed-hair
effect. "Flapper's rash" Is another
name for it.
1.-THE tender skin Of young girls
is severely affected by frequent
shaving" Doctor Sable declared
1.-The only cure is to discontinue
shaving, and most of the girls, par
ticularly brunettes, refuse to accept
this cure"
TIE rash has been called to the
attention Of scientists at Johns
Hopkins Hospital, Doctor Sable said.

TEN YEARS AGO

Last Saturday Kleber Hadsell, NJ.
r. Chittick, and Will F. Daley made
a trip to the southern part of the
county for the purpose of selecting
a site for the boys camp. Through
the courtesy of Supt. Austin of the
s.. & e. these three officers of the
r. A. c.. were taken to Canon and
shown an ideal spot for a summer
camp. The place selected is near
Encampment near what is known as
the Baggett bridge and is on En-
campment creek. The directors
thought it better to locate here than
on the Platte river so that the par
ents of he boys would have NJ fear
of any of the boys being drowned.
Another thing hat entered into the
selection was the fact that there are
no snakes in that section. The fish
ing in Encampment creek is as good
as could be found anywhere in the
county.
This camp will be under strict SUI
pervision at all times and everything
possible will be done to see that the
boys have a good clean time, while
at the same time they will be guard
ed against over-exertion. The di-
rectors wish to give the boys a good
time at the camp this hummer and
while they are at the camp to have
them learn to manage themselves,
to respect the rights of others, and
above all else to learn to appreciate
how and what you are trying to do
for them in the home. The camp
will be started August Bird, the boys

of Labor, his appreciation and that
of his running mate, Senator
Wheeler, of Montana, for the in
dorsement of their candidacy.
Although it may be branded as
radical by the forces we are fight

lin its essence is "conserVa-

by the statement in the messag sc

Setting forth the issues as he sees
it, the Wisconsin senator charges
that our opponents rave deliber-
ately chosen to entrench themselves
in defense of vested rights and spe-
cial privileges, while we have
chosen to fight aggressively and
without compromise for human
rights. The American labor move
ment, he adds, has been "a prime
factor in every enterprise for the
conservation Of human rights, hui
