Leslie Perry Memorial Library to which -every member of the committee is asked to attend as many important features arc to come before the com mittee for their action. Indications, at present, are that Henderson's Hall will draw one of the largest crowds probably ever to at tend such an affair in this city, the public being invited to participate in this* compliment to the President. One dollar of every admission will go to the Warm Springs Foundation in Georgia as an endowment from the President for the fight that the Foundation is oanyUig on against in fantile paruyste throughout the coun try. President Roosevelt, himself, was stricken with this paraysis and heard of Warm Springs and went there, wae •so ibencfitted and saw the benefit that others were getting from bathing in its tepid pools,. that he was instru mental in raising funds for the work of the Springs to be spreaded in ol der that more children could be bene fit ted by it. Refreshments will be sold by a gioup of high school girls, the net proceeds from their sale will go to the .general fund for the endowment of the Foundation.

The band is one of he headliners of the country, having played in many of the leading ciiie; liroughout America and will be on r, j our of the leading southern schools j playing for mid-winter dances when | t comes to this city. This gesture on I he part of this famous band is truly in keeping with the spirit of the at fair, that of everyone doing his part io'honor the man that is doing every thing in his power to ter ing this coun •ry back to normalcy. It. was stinaed today, jfchat every cent over and above actual expenses will go to the fund to be turned over to the Foundation and that no com plimentary tickets will be given to anyot*e regardless of what part, they may play in the staging of the ball.

NRA Wipes Out ■ A National Blot The new NRA Code has stabilized minimum prices for dry cleaning which average, across the country, about ONE-HALF what prices averaged four or five years ago. True, it ends the so-called “bargains”—trick merchan dising—and price wars. But, as a good citizen, you should welcome the change. The other path led to nowhere but sweatshop hours, breadline wages, deception and dishonest practices. Conditions were frankly becoming an ugly blot on our civilization. The CODE gives you the comforting as surance that those who handle your clothes and be longings are employed on decent American standards.
