It Is easier to preserve the color Of the
hair than to restore 1t, although it Is
possible to do both. Our grandmothers
understood the secret. They made q
sage tea" and their dark, glossy hair
long after middle life was due to this
fact. Our mothers have gray hairs be-
fore they are fifty, but they are begin

grandmothers in using sage tea" for
their hair and are fast following suit.
The present generation has the ad-
vantage of the past in that 1t can get
a ready to-u preparation called Wy
etks Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy.
AS a scalp tonic and color restorer this
preparation is vastly superior to the
ordinary sage tea" made by our grand
mothers.

prettiest country school house in the
county.
Attractive school houses and play
grounds are all the rage In this county
now. Almost every district has fallen
In with the procession and has ar
ranged entertainments to raise the
money for playground improvements.
Many Of the districts are taking ad-
joining lots for playground purposes
under arrangements with the owners
and are identifying the grounds for
the benefit Of the children Of the
schools. Swings. "teeter- boards" ira
pezes, and other things for the boys
and basketball courts for the birls are
being installed in nearly every school
district Of the county.
Flowers and shrubbery are also
forming a large part In the decoration
of the buildings and grounds Of the
districts. The school IL becoming
rapidly more Of social center for
the community and the community Is
making It more attractive and better
place to meet.
Some of the schools are spending
money for pictures for their rooms
and several entertainments have al
ready been given to raise money for
more pictures. District No A is one
of these. An entertainment has been
planned for the evening of Thanksgiv-
ing and the money will be spent for
the purchase OF decorations for the
walls of the school rooms. District
No. Is has raised $2s and Fairbank
has raised 81 for pictures in its build
ings. Prizes were awarded at the In
ter Mountain fair totalinR 800 and
many of the schools will use this
money for playground Identification.
Green Meadow won a $50 prize in
the grains and grasses and has de-
cided to apply this on the purchase Of
swings and other playground ap-
paratus. The children of the school
threshed the grains out by hand and
put up an excellent exhibit that cap
tured a prize for the district. Those
who did the work are Daniel and Har-

The exhibit was prepared under the
direction Of Miss Ethel Blevins, their

conditions on the isthmus, with tropi-
cal heat and extreme humidity, and the
deteriorating effect of these conditions
On the insulation Of electrical machin-
cry. the ordinary insulation proved I'M
reliable, and the engineers found 1t nee
essary to make great number of ex-
periments, no less than 16 sample mo-
tors being pitted against one another.
1t was an awful test for dynamo and
motor builders to have their machines
required to operate for period OF ten
days in building filled with steam at
and having the meter cases filled with
water for five hours at 80 degrees. But
finally the American motor builders re-
sponded and suitable apparatus is be-
ing istalled.
Swinging Great Gates.
Thus electric motors under tests are
now swinging the great gates Of the
canal. each weighing very many tons
and as tall and broad as q great sky
scraping building In the remarkable
time Of one minute and forty eight
seconds. Incidentally it appears that
to make these gates. the iron workers
must drive and head 6.75o.00o rivets.
The pivots of these great locks are
being made OF a special grade Of steel
and bronze, not only for strength. but
to protect them against corrosion, a
very necessary precaution in view of
the fact that they will always be SUBJ
merged In sea water after the canal Is
open. To guard against galvanic ac-
ton. zinc rings are also placed on the
bronze bushings.
To supply the power to operate the
gates and sluice valves in the locks,
and furnish current for the monster
electric locomotives which are to tow
the steamships through the locks. q
great hydro electric station is being
erected adjacent to the spillway in
Gatun dam. There are three 1850 kill
owatt water turbines. and three 1000
kilowatt generators with suitable ex-
citers and other auxiliaries There will
be enough water from the storage in
Lake Gatun to warrant the installation
of 5000 kilowatts. though in the dry
season 1t will be necessary to draw
upon the storage. Altogether 1t Is fig
ured that for this electric work seven
per cent Of the minimum water system
of the canal will be required. A part
OF the electricity Is to be used for
lighting the line of the canal. There
will be concrete lamp-posts 100 feet
apart throughout the entire length Of
each lock wall. Altogether 1000 lamps
will be installed at the locks.
Outside OF the canal proper, the re-
port shows that work has been going
on rapidly In preparing harbcrs for the
shelter Of ships at each end OF the
waterway. The work Of fertilization
has also been progressing well, nearly
half milton yards Of concrete having
been placed in the mortar pits and gun
emplacements during the last year.
