Too Much Water on
the Hair a Mistake
!, lFrom Tollettes Of Today, PARIS

(From Toilettes Of Today, Paris)
'If your hair is becoming dry and
brittle, breaking off and losing color,
follow the lead of the many who have
abandoned the use of soap and water
and taken up a new method of dry
shampooing," said Claribel Montague
in her lecture on Beauty" at the
Theater Monet, Thursday. ut has
been proven beyond question that too
frequent wetting and the application
OF alkaline substances to the hair is a
mistake.
"Even those who formerly were de-
voted to shampooing with eggs now
use therox and orris root, and they
unhesitatingly declare that this dry
shampoo makes the hair as bright
and fluffy as ever did eggs
ITO make the dry shampoo mix
four ounces of powdered orris root
with four ounces OF therox. Sprinkle
Z a. tablespoonful of the mixture on the
head and brush it well through the
hair. Do this once or twice a week
if the hair is thin and scanty and
YOU will soon notice new growth Of
hair. Nothing will make the hair so
beautifully fine and lustrous as this
dry shampoo"

sents to the Pacific coast and patrons
of music in this city the famous lilly
Koenen, Dutch contralto of renown in
Europe. Miss Koenen's position on the

this season is something which the
patrons of the best in music should ap-

American tour
OF Dutch parentage, she was born on
the island of Java, but received her
early education and musical equipment
at The Hague. 1t was from this capl-
tai city that her first concert tour was
planned: it was here also two years
ago that she sang for the young queen
of Holland and was decorated for her
work. This year before leaving 1oI
America it was Miss Koenen's good
fortune to be commanded" to appear
before the queen again, and as the
meeting was informal the queen took
from her own corsage a Jewel of extra
ordinary value and gave 1t to Miss
Koenen.
The Koenen program is given in de-

A MAY music festival with tremen-
IN dous choruses, great symphony
a. orchestra and soloists of interna-
tional renown, whether or not of local
residence, are features which the di-
rectors of the festival arrangements are
now considering.
The project has been gradually talk
ing shape ever since it's inauguration
last December and will undoubtedly
develop into one Of the great sue
cesses for which Los Angeles is be-
coming famous.
The executive board represents the
Gamut club and the chamber of COM
merce, and governing body composed
of representatives of these associa-
tions and professions Merchants and
Manufacturers association, the Or
pheus club, Ellis, Dominant Lyric,
Treble Clef, Friday Morning, Ebell and
Ruskin art clubs from the Los Angeles
Center of American Music society, the
board of education. teachers of music
in the high school, polytechnic high
and the grammar grades, and from
other musical organizations, mercantile
bodies and influential citizens.
1t is evident from this that every
field will be touched and every person
reached in this great musical achieve
ment.
IHe DeneHI OF Sucn an aIIlllatlon or
musical interests will prove of untold
benefit and perhaps not the least hope
full prospect is that with the organiza-
ton of the great chorus the various
singing organizations of the city will
finally form some choral association
for the purpose of giving two or more
oratorios here each year.
With the big symphony orchestra in
better form than it has ever been, and
with an auditorium most suitable for
the production of works with a big
chorus, it is one of the lamentable
features of musical conditions here
that there is no oratorio society.
