Nobody can effectively initiate the FeIsNapha o. washing

Do you understand FeIS-Naptha
soap? 1t is like your sewing g-machine.
in that it saves labor and does the
work better.
No woman who understands the
SeWing-machine would 60 back to
hand-stitching. No woman who
understands Fels-Naptha would 90
back to the old way of washing
clothes.
FelS-Naptha is more than a diff
terent kind of Soap-it is different
way of washing. Which is what we
mean when we ask if you understand
FelS-Naptha.
You don't boil the clothes; YOU
don't even use hot water. You don't
stir the clothes; you don't even do
much rubbing on the board. All the
hard labor you used to do yourself to
loosen the dirt, is done by Fels-Naptha
soap.
With a white wash, you simply
wet the clothes, rub the FelS-Naptha
soap on them, then put the pieces
in the tub with just enough lukeWarm
or cool water to cover them. In a
half hour. the FelS-Naptha will loosen
ke it all out. And the clothes will be
d hard rubbing.

This was ail because the school
board has applied the curfew law to
school teachers OF Muskogee. From
Tulsa and McAlestcr comes informa.
tion that the school board at each
place has made similar order.
The boards OF education in these
towns have decided that the teachers
in the public schools must cut society
five nights out OF the week ut least.
The boards have given II out that they
do not expect to see the teachers out
after nine O'Clock ut night through the
school week. and they do not add that
the teachers are at liberty the other
nights.
This order has created n storm in
the towns mentioned. Some of the
teachers are in open rebellion, and
say they will go where they please
and when. and some OF them have
done so. but It is noticed they are
waiting with some apprehension for
the next meeting of the board.
