And it is a fact that wherever successful salesmen are found, a majority wear stiff collars. There is something about the cleanliness and set of a stiff collar that accentuates a man's per sonal efficiency. The only problem with the stiff collar is to keep it correctly shaped each time it is laundered. This difficulty has been over come bv the modern laundries of Philadel phia. In the big laundries more wear is given collars because of the careful way in which they are washed and ironed. Wonderful machine-ironers smopth off the rough edges and corners. Each collar is automatically shaped to fit snugly around fhe neck. The same, careful con sideration is given to the laundering of your shirts. When your collars and shirts are handled by the big public laundries they are laundered amid the most sanitary surroundings. The laundryman calls for your soiled linens and shirts and returns them prompt ly. If you would look your best wear stiff collars and for satisfaction send them to the laundry.

"I'm not looking for a strike, said William Hick, secretary of the board todav. "The increase .of $100 is absolutely Impossible, certainly by April 13. You enn figdre how many children would he involved If the iKW men struck. Thc number would he something like 10.000 " Dr. .Inhn P. Cinrber. superintendent of schools said. "I hope sincerely that the strike can he avoided on account of the Interests of tjie children. " Several members of the board re gnided the coercive methods of thc teachers as uiifoitunate nt this time. Ti.ving to loercc the finance committee he.voiid Its nbllity to supply funds could mean nothing less" than thc closing" of schools.

Thc men teat hers asserted thnt their claims for I an ndvnnce had been Ignored und thnt they had received the worst end of the ideal.
