CITY IMPROVEMENT REFERENDUM SHOWS VARIETY OF REPLIES

Referendum number one of the Chamber of Commerce is being returned rapidly and the answer to the two questions contained in the referendum number one ("What In your opinion is the thing of first importance that - should be undertaken by the Chamber of Commerce to improve trade conditions and opportunities in your own line of business?" and number two "What do you believe the Chamber of Commerce should first ndertake for the good of the city at large?") are very interesting and show real constructive thought and public spirited interest of the members.

laem aave, us yet, iaucu iu iuuiu uio referendum. All the members are, urged to complete and return referendum number one at the earliest possible date. In order that they may be considered in building up the program of work of the most important, definite things the organization will undertake to do, the referendums must be received at the Chamber of Commerce by noon of Friday. Promptness Is Keynote "Promptness" is to be the watchword of the Chamber of Commerce in all its work. When meetings are called at a certain time, that meeting is going to start on the minute. It is also going to close promptly at. the time set. It will have many and very important things to do and its work must be systematized. The officers of the organization are asking all of the members to assist in this systematizing by prompt action on communications sent them. It is expected that the names of the members - will be properly classified and ballots mailed out to each of the members by the latter part of this week, or the first of next, in order that they may designate their choice for nominees for director in their classification. When the nominating ballots are sent out the members will be allowed three days in which to return them. The ballot will close at noon of the third day after being mailed. There can be no reason for delay, other than procrastination, and that "thief-of-time" will not be tolerated in the work the organization expects to do. Divided Into Groups. Tn addition to the 14 general classifications, into which the members are to be divided, they will also be grouped into many other business classifications and each group will be called to meet to elect its representative. The motives for these meetings, which will take place during the most of next week wll be mailed at an early date. The meetings will be called at intervals of every 20 minutes from 9 to 1 1 : 30 o'clock, and from 1 to 5 o'clock. This is another case where promptness in attendance at the group meetings will be required in order that, each group may complete its organization and get out ' of the way before the meeting for the next group is due. A general meeting of all the member?, or an open forum, will also be ailed at an early date, and it is proposed to have a general gathering of all the members, or as many as can be secured, at a dinner or luncheon meeting every three months. At the first of these meetings, to be called within three months, it is ex

pected that a prominent woman speaker and a prominent man speaker can be secured to talk on subjects of par-; ticular interest. These will be the only talks at the meeting. j

RATE ADJUSTMENT . URGED BY SHIPPERS CHICAGO, 111 . March 21. Delegates from shippers' associations in 20 statesh attended the national conference held in Chicago, March 14, to discuss with railway executives, railway labor men and attorney generals from several states, the traffic situation. , The Illinois Agricultural association was represented by D. O. Thompson, secretary; J. R. Bent, of the phosphate-limestone department, and Lee J. Quasey, of the claims department. "Recent advances are such that the farmer cannot continue to produce at a maximum unless an adjustment is made," declared President J. R. Howard, of the American Farm Bureau, in his opening address. "The present schedule of transportation charges is prohibitive. A few days ago it cost as much to ship a bushel of corn from Omaha to New York as the farmer got for it on the Missouri river." . Glenn E. Plumb, representing labor, said that the laboring man was willing to accept adjustments in rules govering labor so as to eliminate all possible inefficiency. Samuel M. Felton, president of the Chicago and Great Western, declared that rates could not be cut until operating expenses were reduced. The condition of the roads with 450,000 idle cars and an one-third decline in freight was serious, he said.

Hair Often Ruined By Careless Washing

Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonsful of Mulsified will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get Mulsified. cocoanut oil shampoo at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months. Be sure your druggist gives you Mulsified.
