HE Mayor's Billboard Advertising Commission thinks all out- T door advertising in the vicinity of parks and public buildings ought to be suppressed, and therefore proposes an amendment to the State Constitution to the effect that “the promotion of beauty shall be deemed a public purpose.” This sounds like « grand proposition, but somehow a little re- mote.

Anybody who can live through a day like yesterday in this city and not curse the fash- ign that taught man to bind multiple layers of stiffness and starch about his sweltering neck must be dead to all normal instinct. ‘The male of the species hereabouts must finally realize that the way he clothes himself in hot weather is the strongest possible evi- dence against his claim to be a reasoning animal. That he wears cloth over his shoulfers in summer is sufficiently imbecile. But that he stupidly submits to a hot, hampering, utterly useless yoke about his neck, whose only purpoee is to tire his head and torture his chin, is past all understanding. ’ Why make a fetich of the linen collar? In the Eest millions of men wear soft bands of silk about their necks.
