THE PROPER WAY
TO SHAMPOO

In speaking OF the careless way in which
most women care for their hair. Mrs. Mae
Martyr, the noted authority, writes as
follows in the Baltimore News. The In
creasing badness Of women with &C.
companying scalp troubles is becoming
alarming. Short. thin, dull. faded. brittle,
falling, streaky hair is very common. Few
seem TO realize that theSe troubles are
often caused by the alkal. en- the soap
used for shampooing. II is tco strong for
the hair and eats the very life out 1t.
The only safe, reliable shampoo / know
OF is perhaps the least expensive 1t Is
made by dissolving teaspoonfW OF can
throx in a cup OF hot water. No other
shampoo fathers 90 well, cleanses so
thoroughly or will remove dirt Hne dan
druff as satisfactorily. II IL the finest
thing / have ever found for making IRE
hair soft, fluffy and lustrous. II womeR
would use this plendid shampoo exclusive

BELLEVUE REFUSES OFFER
University Of Omaha Agrees to Union
but Bellevue Declines.
JOINT COMMITTEE REPORTS PLAN
Two Omaha Institutions Cannot Pro-
coed Further Now in NeEOtIa-
lions for Union In "Onaaha
University"

The movement for uniting Bellevue col
lege and the University of Omaha In an
Omaha University" came TO an abrupt
end Tuesday night when Bellevue refused
to accede TO the suggestions OF a Joint
committee which has been for several
months considering the plan. because Il
would separate the school from the Pres
byterian church.
The trustees Of the University Of Omaha
met in the court room OF Judge Kennedy
and decided after hearing the report of
the committee to acquiesce and favor the
union. Bellevue college authorities met
at the Young Mems Christian association
and decided unanimously to decline.
The Joint committee reported a plan of
three propositions; First that the institu-
ton should be nonsectarian and known "a
Omaha University second, that the
assets OF the two schools should be merged,
and, third. that the classes should be con-
Quoted under one faculty control, but have
the different campuses now in use.
This report was signed by q. W. wattles,
G. NJ Wilhelm, H. z. Maxwell. c. f. Nc
Grew and J. D. Haskell for Bellevue and
by Howard Kennedy. o. c. Redick, W.. v.
Hayward. J. r. F1ack and Paul Ruhns for
the university.
Inc oDlecuons OF Bellevue to the plans
were largely founded upon the necessity
under the plan for severing relations with
the Presbyterian church more completely
than has been done by the Presbyterian
synod
AS was stated by DR.. S. w. stookey.
president of Bellevue, 1.-THE college was
founded by the Presbyterian church thirty
years ago and In q way belongs to it,
No less potent in the decision was the fact
that complete separation from the church
would mean direct financial loss to the
college.
Says Negotiations Not Ended.
DR.. d. e. Jenkins, president Of the Uni
verslty of Omaha, when told that the Belle
vue board had declined the proposal OF
the joint committee, did not subscribe to
the opinion that the negotiations were
concluded.
"The committee was appointed at the
suggestion of Bellevue" said DIR. Jenkins.
and the suggestion of DR.. Robert Nc
kenxie of the Presbyterian educational
board The university has acuuiesced in
every change desired by Bellevue and
would have taken up this proposition. In
the meantime the university IL going ahead
| with it's enterprise. The new gymnasium
is about finished and commencement exer-
| cises will be held in It."
The committees were not formally dis
missed and further negotiations are q
Possibility on either side.
