What will remove painted pictures
from a slicker?
If the slicker is rubber coated it
is likely that the paint cannot be
removed without seriously injuring
the fabric. 1t may be possible to
spot the paint-stain with carbon
etra-chloride and remove it by
very careful manipulation. There
are some soaps containing carbon
terra chloride which are very use
full for this purpose. They may be
obtained from any dry cleaning
supply concern.
Who invented or conceived the

With the "scene of action" appro-
priately appointed in every detail,
for such gala occasion, among the
hundreds of guests were included ma
val aides, Seventeenth Infantry band,

Roosevelt Post No. 80 was ably rep
resented by delegation composed of
Adjutant R. L. Williams, L. C.
Broomfield, John A. Gardner, DR..

Many brief, interesting talks pre-
ceded that of the guest of honor, af-
ter which Clinton Bronze introduced
the Hon. Curtis d. Wilbur, secretary
of the navy, who mastered the sit
uation from then on. The secretary
wildly depicted the present status
of our navy and stressed the impor-
lance of preparedness. He declared
that an adequate navy is not pro-
vocative of war and insisted that our
navy should be second to none.
Whereas the major part of the speech
was statistical, the startling disclos-
ure of facts, certainly furnished
plenty Of food for thought. Mr.. Will
