Tough Topkicks Convert
G.I. Joe Into Dapper Dan

CHICAGO. - When Hairy Harry
became CT. Joe it turned him into
a Dapper Dan, a survey just COM
pleted here reveals.
Seeking sharpness, both figura-
tive and literal, the nations 46 mil
lion shaverS now use an average Of
% razor blades annually, in con-
trast to 43 before the war, the sur
vey shows. Army and navy train
ing, which emphasized the daily
shave, is considered the major fac
tor responsible for the increase, &C.
cording to Arthur H. Rogow, vice
president of Eversharp company, in
announcing results of the survey.
The average doughboy or COB,
stimulated by tough topkicks and
bellicose bos'ns, used an average of
l25 blades annually, he pointed out.
This war-born habit of frequent
trimming of the underbrush was re-
sponsible for skyrocketing sales of
razors and blades made by Ameri-
can manufacturers to an all-time
high estimated at 80 million dollars
during 1916, Rogow said. The total
was nearly twice that of the previ-
u record year, 1929, when sales
amounting to 40 million dollars
were rung up.
National prosperity, which gave
the average man more money to
spend on his personal appearance,
was the second major factor in
stimulating the trend toward beard
less jowls, the survey indicated.
This was expressed not only in
more frequent shaving, Rogow
pointed out, but in a more carefree
attitude toward blades.
Men who squeezed from 8 to 10
shaves from a blade when times
were tough now discard them after
they have been used an average of
4 times.

Judge Dean Sherry of San Diego,

Service League
Members Active
In Local Events

Pictured on this page are groups
of members OF the Social Service
League of Wilmington shown in
the vario US activities of the
league. The Social Service League
was organized here in 1884 by a
group of 10 young women who
wanted to make a serious en-
deavor to take an active part in
the promotion of human welfare
in the community.
The League expanded the first
year, and as more members were
taken in the work in the COM
munity grew, where now there are
Sc members who wish to take an
active interest in the social, eco
nomic. educational, cultural and
civic conditions of the community
to make efficient their volunteer
work.
With the cooperation of the peo-
pie of Wilmington the Social Serv-
ice League C a function, the
League is not an. end in itself,
but is a training school from
which young women graduate to
take their places as board mem
bers of civic and social. agencies
and as community leaders.
The first project of the League
was a teen-age girls club. In 1885
this club continued to be directed
and maintained by the League,
but it was so successful that it
was made a part of the city-wide
recreation program and vas spon-
sored by the. city and county. Also
during those years the League as
sisted the Red Cross in their work
among the pallagra patients in the
county. This work was carried on
into 1887 then from 1887 to 1910
the Social Service League estab-
lished, equipped and maintained a
diabetic clinic at James Walker
Memorial hospital, and donated
the free insulin given to the pa
tents when needed. Doctors Rob
ert Rodman and David r. Murchi-
son gave their services to the
clinic.
This record brings up almost to
the outbreak of the war, and just
prior to the war the members an
swered the call of the Red Cross
for a stepped up production sched-i
ule and they volunteered many
hours to knitting and sewing for
the local Red Cross chapter. Dur
ing the years of 1910 to 1912 the
League gave OF its time and funds
to equip. supply and direct a
nursery school which was estab-
lished to take care of the children
of mothers who had gone into war
work. The members also stated
the Museum of Art on Sundays.

MEDFORD HOBBY SHOP
TodayS hobbiest says her craft
was engaged in fer the sole pur-
pose of helping to while away
the anxious moments when her
husband, Capt. Hugh BosheId,
was fighting with the 92nd Divi-
sion in Italy during the war. But
the creation of handwrought
jewelry proved so fascinating
that she has been working at it
ever since.
When I dropped in on her the
other day Mrs. Portia Bosfeld
was deep in the process of turn
ing out Xmas gifts for family
and friends and was working on
a copper brooch of intricate de-
sign. Surrounding her on the
work bench were several crea-
tlons including rings, bracelets,
brooches, earrings, etc. made of
copper, sterling silver and brass.
Asked if the hobby was expens-
i've she replied that it was not
primarily so. "All one needs is
ingenuity imagination, patience,
and a few relatively inexpensive
tools. No special workshop is err
quired. Sterling silver, is, of
course a rather expensive metal
to work with but other metals,
copper, nickel, aluminium, brass,
etc. can be gold and silver plat
ed to look more expensive" She
hopes soon to acquire plating
outfit for this purpose.
After graduating from Portia
Law School with an LIB. de-
gree, she had planned to pursue
a legal career but a serious i'll
ness forced her to abandon her
plans. Hobbies have helped ire
mendously to fill in the gap. She
believes that every one should
have a hobby. 1t is relaxing, Gre
alive imagination is stimulated
and the results Of ones person.
al skill is indeed gratifying.
Samples of her work will be on
display at the Fair to be given
at st. Bartholomew Church
Nov. 10 and 90.
