By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. , CLARENDON, Va., July 24 —Meeting iere at luncheon yesterday, the execu- tive committee of the Arlington County Chamber of Commerce started arrange- ments for a joint conference with State highway and county officials in an effort to prevent the closing of Lee Highway and Wilson Boulevard at the same tume, Both to Be Widened. Both of these highways are to be widened this year, the former by the State and the latter by the county. Chamber of Commerce officlals have | communicated ~ with H. G. Shirley, | chairman of the State Highway Com- mission, and were advised to get in touch with C. L. Kinnier, county di- recting engineer, in an effort to learn Jjust when the Wilson Boulevard project will be undertaken. The two highways run parallel. It now being apparent that the Wil- #on Boulevard project will be started about August 15, when the contract is 1o be let, and that the road will be closed for approximately 60 days, Chamber of Commerce officials fear that it will clash with the Lee Highway widening, for which bids have already been opened. It is also planned to 2 2 2 enter into a general highway discussion o » at _the conference. : It was decided at yesterday’s meeting to have a second Chamber of Commerce outing on August 17 and 18. Since the first outing was held in the mountains the second will take place at Colonial Beach. Al Chamber of Commerce members are invited to take part in this outing. The details will be handled by P. P. Woodbridge, executive secretary.

For two months I was| | not able to do a thing, my stomach | | was in a bad fix and everything I ate caused me great pain from gas | | and indigestion. At times ‘the cramps were so bad I could hardly | stand the pain. I was also troubled | with _constipation, liver seemed fto | be out of order and I felt miserable. I tried various remedies but none helped me, in fact this medicine | | gave me the first real relief I had. As 1 said before, I was unable to work, but as bad as my condition | had seemed, this medicine helped | me from the very first and by the | time I had used all of the first bottle I felt like a different person, in fact, | | I went back to work and have not | lost any time on account of sickness | since I began using the Herb Ex- tract. As for stomach pains and | disorders, well I eat just what I | want and do not have one bit of | trouble from gas or indigestion, | bowels move regular and I have | more pep and emrfl than I have | had for years.
