COLLARS CONDEMNED
EFFECT ON CIRCULATION ABOLISHMENT SUGGESTED ROME, August 4 A suggestion that stiff collars and tics bo abolished is welcomed by Signor Mussolini's newspaper, Giornale d' Italia. The adoption of upright Roman writing, instead of sloping characters, is also proposed. The paper says:— "A stiff collar and tightly-knotted tie press on the neck, and slow up the blood circulation, affecting the eyesiglit and the lucidity of the brain. "Diagonal handwriting also harmfully affects the neck and spinal column."
