FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21,1921 Practical and Beautiful Council Rooms 3S.tM.tM PHONE CALLS DAILY Chicago.â€"It seems almost incredible that it was only 45 years ago that the telephone was invented. Since then, in less than a lifetime, the telephone industry has been developed and ex- panded to such a remarkable extent that it now provides a service of na- tional scope for the 107,000,000 people living in the United States. This has required the stringing of enough wire to span the distance from earth to the moon more than 100 times; the erec- tion of pole lines which would reach nearly IS times around the world; the installation of duct space for carrying cables underground of sufficient length to reach more than six times through the center of the earth from pole to pole, and the construction of buildings enough, if brought together, to form a city as large as Richmond, Va. Over 33,000,000 telephone conversations take place every day. ^^__^ HEADS N. U.

The non-employment situation and the prospect of a severe winter will make the demands upon the army unusually heavy. Its relief work especially will be largely in- creased. This is done- whereever a member of the Salvation Army learns of need of any kind. The central de- pots for relief distribution are the slum posts, particularly the one at 31st street and Normal avenue, and the central charities depot at Seventh and S. State streets. Other activities of the Salvation Ar- my in Chicago and vicinity are: One rescue homer one industrial home for men in Chicago, one industrial home for men in Evanston, nine industrial stores, five Working men's- hotels, one dispensary, one dental clinic, one free laundry, five employment bureaus, one ex-service men's bureau, one ter- ritorial headquarters, nineteen corps, one social headquarters, one divisional headquarters, one training school, and one young women's boarding home, a missing friends bureau, and an anti- suicide bureau. - Facilities Inadequate GIVE ADVICE ON CARE OF SORE AND TIRED FEET If you are troubled with sore, tired or blistered feet, find the size and shape and make of shoe which fits properly and then stick to it. This^is_the advice of Packer &-0s- tiller, owners of the North Shore boot- ery. The changing whims of style, they explain, are not for those who are afflicted with sore feet. There are makes of shoes, they point out, which are good looking and comfortable too. One item in the proper care of the feet, according to this firm, which is backed by the best medical authority. is the use of two or more pairs of shoes. It is not economy, they say. to have but one pair. The feet are rested and, the shoes last longer if occasional changes are made.. Stockings should fit properly and should be changed often, they sav, if the feet are to enjoy the utmost com- fort. Cracks or fissures in the skin should be treated with tannic acid in glycerin or iodine or tincture of ben- zoin. Blisters should be cleaned and carefully ooened at the edge with a ne^d'e' which b^'s been sterilised in -j flame, should be painted wjth""Z~0T ^ nor cent iodine, after the fluid has been removed, and should be covered with ^ pad of gauze held in place by adhesive tape. The refuge is inadequate in its ""equipment to the extent that it Jias been found necessary to ask help "and co-operation from two hospitals. The refuge is absolutely free and any «irl in trouble is received without question. . About eighty-five per cent of the girls received are permanently restored to a useful happy place in society. A large per cent of the men go from the industrial homes back to the oc- cupations they were following when nrisf OTTlffie~~of some sort overtook them. For all the work they do at the home, they are paid, so that when they start work on a new job they have pre- sentable clothes and enough money to carrv them to the first play day at least. Very old and infirm men stay indefinitely and arc triven such lieht work as they -are able to do. Every man in the home is paidrsomething in addition to his room and board. A considerable amount of entertain- ment is also furnished. The wfipgcBpfcie men'* employment MEMORIES! To make former doughboVs feel af home, uninue plans were laid for thr Wbraska s*ate convention of the Am- erican Legion at Fremont. Military police were stationed about the city that the soldiers might have the pleas- ure of blithely disregarding the red '•r-i bateds of the one Time authority. Officers in S-\m Brown belts and shiny nuttc's were '-onspicuous, but private posed them bv. citrarets in mouth with a nod of recognition answering for the old snappy salute. Wooden shoes clattered over cobble-stones to bring back memories of French vil- lages and to strengthen the illusion, small boys in street corners r»ler»*lef!: "Give me one ceecaret. plees?" Signs on tumble-down building* advertised "Vin Blanc" nnd "Vin Rouge" and other all but forgotten commodities 'of the French countrvside. NEW LAWS ENACTED BY ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE Summary of new laws enact- ed by Fifty-Second Gen- eral Assembly. Prepared by Rep. Howard P. Castle, Seventh District. The Unemployed Householder Not merely is the workingman for- tunate in hustling times when he owns his own home, but if he happens to get out of work, he is better off to be an owner than a renter. In the former case he can find productive employment for his time. If he is laid off for any long period he should be raising a garden and poultry, thus paying quite a part of his food ex- pense. He can take the time to make little repairs about his place, so as to save hiring expensive mechanics. The fellows who improve dull times in this way, keep cheerful and will be in far better shape to resume work in the prosperity already returning than the crowd that have hung around on park benches doing nothing. €J More property is sold through classified adver- tising every year than is sold through agents.

The heat excess is not serious, as t"fie mar* vellous adjustment of the human body- enables it to adapt itself to far great- er shifts than this. But the loss of rainfall affects hu- man well-being a great deal. One reason why the world is recovering slowly from the war, is that food pro- duction has been interfered with by droughts., in this country and still more in Russia, China, France, Poland and many other countries. Weather records show that these conditions soon tend to equalize them- selves, however. Food producers can be confident that extreme conditions â- ?s\» Aur. ZmZZZZZ «.â€" I °* any K>nd do not last.
