en- masse and boost the saloons in
America, especially since the kaiser
has prohibited the use Of alcoholics in
his great army and limits their manu-
facture in Germany. but we protest
that the mayor of Richmond, none of
the municipal officers, nor the Ger
man Alliance has the shadow of a
right to display the German flag in
neutral America; it is the writer's
candid opinion that any one who
would thus display the German flag in
America at the present time is an I'M
desirable citizen. and his rightful place
is in the front rank of the firing line in
the German army; it is impossible for
the sane mind to assign any other
reason for such person living in this
country than for the almighty dollar
only. and the sooner the government
awakens to the fact that it has been
overwhelmed with undesirable aliens
and realizes that while some of Amer
1Ca's richest loyal blood runs in the
veins Of it's foreign naturalized citizen
ship, yet Notwithstanding the time has
come and now is when our foreign i'm
migration must receive very rigorous
censorship.
Furthermore, since the late prohi-
bition election by decided majority
revealed the fact that Richmond has
fifty-seven well-regulated parlor-sa-
looms, why should the German ALI
ance attempt further saloon reform
Inasmuch as there will always be
houses of Ill fame, white slavers
thieves, thugs. burglars, murderers,
etc. the German Alliance certainly
could use it's activities to much better
benefit to the community by rigidly
reforming these companions to the sa-
loon industry.
Reform our houses of i'll fame by
having only girls from first-class fam
lilies, compelling each inmate to have
eugenic pedigree; reform the white
SLAYER. allowing him only so many
girls OF tender age each year; reform
the thief to only so many articles of
certain kind per year; regulate the
craftsman to so many houses and
safes OF a certain kind per year; the
slugger and sandbagger to only three
victims night. and the murderer
must use only a .32-caliber embossed
handle revolver, and must not kill
over three persons year; if he kills
more. severely punish him.
What would the world know if
there was not evil? Therefore reform.

happy; the German Alliance undoubt-

The two important reports of the
afternoon session of the Indiana Year
ly Meeting were those of the Book and
Trace committee and the Committee
on Efficiency.
The latter was of special interest as
1t was created at the time of the last
Yearly Meeting. The report was made
by the chairman, Arthur NJ Charles,
and referred to the work of the
Efficiency Secretary, Ancil Ratliff,
who was appointed by the committee
subsequent to the last Yearly Meeting,
Mr.. Ratliff having been appointed for
eighteen weeks of service.
The work of the committee has been
devoted to instituting systematic
plan of finance for the work of the
local churches, and as the time was
limited devoted attention to Fair
mount, Marion and Wabash Quarterly
Meetings.
Make Appropriation.
An appropriation of $500 from the
several committees with which the
Efficiency committee co-operates,
namely the evangelistic church extern

Home and Foreign Mission, Peace and
Temperance, was made.

shape, it is being formulated for sys-

SIMPLE WAY TO
END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching Scalp.

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve 1t, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need), ap-
ply it at night when retiring, use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, CLOS
sy, silky and soft, and look and feel
hundred times better.
If you value your hair, you should
get rid of dandruf at once, for nothing
destroys the hair so quickly. 1t not
only starves the hair and makes it
fall out, but it makes it stringy, strag-
gly, dull. dry, brittle and Weless, and
everybody notices it.

CRUMP LAYS BLAME
FOR DELAY ON j. s..
CONSUL IN BRAZIL.
May Prefer Charges of In
competency Against Off
cial at PernambucO Port
for Refusing Aid.

Clifford C. Crump son of DR.. and
Mrs. C. T. Crump of Greensboro, who
returned home Saturday night after
being marooned month in Brazil on
account of the war, has charged that
the great length of time he was de-
tanned and the privations incident
thereto, were chiefly due to the in
competence of the American consul
at Pernambuco and to the bungling of
the American state department.
Crump sailed from Buenos Aires, Ar
gentina on August for Boulogne,
France, on the North German Lloyd
steamship, Sierra Nevada. Two days
later, war was declared and the vessel
was ordered by wireless to proceed to
the nearest neutral port, which hap
pened to be Pernambuco, Brazil.
At Pernambuco, Crump appealed to
the American consul to send word to
his parents as to his whereabo and
to help him secure accommodations
home. 1t was impossible for Crump
personally to cable home as all cables
from Pernambuco to the United States
are routed via Europe. This the
American consul refused to do at first
and later neglected to do, because he
was, according to Crump, incompe-
tent all the time and intoxicated part
of the time.
After a month of waiting during
which time Crump was compelled to
pay exorbitantly high prices for even
the barest necessities of life he Sc
cured passage to the United States on
a coffee boat.
Appeal to State.
Meantime. Crump's parents, not hav-
ing heard from him and greatly fear
ing for his safety appealed to the Pal
ladium to locate their missing son.
The Palladium Immediately commu-
nicated through Congressman Finly
Gray with the state department re-
questing that Crump be located Ten
days later Mr.. Gray wired the Pal
ladium that the state department had
located Crump in Calais, France, with
out funds and for his parents to imme-
diately deposit 5000 with the SUBJ
This was accordingly done, but moth
ing more was heard of Crump.
Saturday night when their son re-
turned very unexpectedly they learned
for the first time that he had never
been in Calais, but had been stranded
In Pernambuco all the time
DR.. and Mrs. Crump have already
taken steps looking toward the re-
turn of the money they deposited with
the government when informed by the
state department he was in Calais,
France.
Crump will probably join with five
other Americans who shared equally
bad at the hands of the American con-
sui at Pernambuco in preferring char
ges against him with the state de-
partment

Charity Bureau Against
WhirlWind Canvass.

No whirlwind methods will be used
in the campaign for funds for charity
this year, it was decided by the CEN
trail board of the Central Bureau OF
Charities last night.
The board decided that it is better
from a standpoint of worthy charity
to educate rather than to promote CIV
ing by promoting a spirit of competi-
ton among the patrons of charity.
The preliminary work of the cam
paign now being practically under way
the board desires to take up the edu-
cation of the patrons in such way
as to have permanent, intelligent CIV
ing instead of blind desire to give
more than some other patron.
