The "wednesday Club in annual
meeting at the jefferson Hotel last
night went on record in opposition TO
an auditorium in the proposed new
municipal building and favor Of inn

various business and social clubs OF
the city and of citizens generally viii
be called for an early date. The
meeting is for the purpose of ex-
planning the plans for improving the
auditorium. and committees will be
named to appear before the finance
Committee of the Council and ask
for the necessary appropriation.
Proposed improvement.
Plans offered proposed putting the
stage on the southside of the audi
torium so as 10 bring all the seats
nearer the stage. In addition tho
plans provided for two rows of gall

boxes. for a reconstruction of the roof
so as to obyiate the necessity for the
immense posts and for bricking up
of Cary Street entrances that noise
might be kept out
AT present, as President Corley en-
planned. the only good seats in the
auditorium are the two rows in the
center, those on the side being too
far from the stage and the acoustics
under tn balcony being extremely
poor. Under the arrangement pro-
posed the distance from the stage
OF the back sets would be about half

rather than the length of the building
would face the stage. 1t was pointed
out. too, that more gallery space would
bring more seats within reach OF peo-
pie of small means and uhus In
crease the educational value Of the
annual festivals of the clubs.
Cost VIII BE Small.
President Corley announced last
night that he had been assured by
leading members of many business
and social organizations that they
heartily approve his plans. and he
expressed the belief that the co-opera-
ton of all of them could be obtained.
He pointed out that an improved au-
eiitorium is only secondary in inn
portance to the Wednesday Club, but
would be of benefit to all the people.
The plans offered. he said, would en-
tall a cost upon the city of between
$4,000 to $4,000 and would obviate
the necessity OF providing space for an
auditorium In the proposed new NUM-

Making the Rock Garden.

The rock garden, to be successful,
must be along the lines approved by
nature 1t must not, in any point,
resemble a piece of masonry or other
formal construction, says writer in
the Minneapolis Journal. The most
satisfactory location for it is at the
foot of gentle slope, where it can
climb the declivity and the rocks be
given the appearance of jutting out
from the hillside. But very excellent
results may be achieved on fiat sur
faces IL 1t is remembered to let the
rocks appear to crop out on the sur
face rather than appear to be placed
there for purpose. The rock garden
should have its highest point or be-
ginning at some natural or artificial
boundary wall, or better still.
clump of trees and shrubbery which
will serve to mask its origin. From
this vantage point 1t may extend in
a natural way to the limits marked
out for it; here an isolated bowlder,
here group of less pretentious stones
and again a group of large stones
may find room in their pockets for a
small tree. The extent may be two
or three rods in width at one end and
gradually narrow until at the other it
becomes an occasional rock on the
lawn.

WHEN KENYON COMPROMISED

Years ago Senator William S.
Kenyon of Iowa was running for coun.
ty prosecutor on the Republican
ticket His Democratic opponent had
the backing of man who was not
only the leading Democrat in the com.
munity but also had beautiful daugh-
ter. Kenyon was extremely fond of
the beautiful daughter, and that made
complications. For Kenyon feared
that if her father opposed him in poll
tics he might get the habit and oppose
him in other and more serious ways.
Moreover, the daughter was one of
the dutiful kind that shared her IA
theirs view that to vote anything but
the straight Democratic ticket was
wicked. One day when Kenyon went
to call he found the daughter in tears
Ehe confessed reluctantly that she had
had words with her father 1t seemed
that father had refused her favor
refused to scratch the ticket to vote for
certain young man who was running
for prosecutor. With that encourage

LLOYD GEORGES STANDBY

Miss Olwen Lloyd George, the
daughter of the British minister of
munitions, is her fathers "right-hand
man." assisting him in public duties
and ministering to his comfort and
health in his home.
Che minister is man of highly
nc rvous temperament and occasionally
he has to have day in bed, where
he receives his private secretaries and
attends to the routine of business. At
such times his daughter assumes full
charge of his room, allows the secre-
taries just as much time as her IA
theirs strength will allow and then
politely but firmly ends the days
work.
When he is in good health the
two are companions for long walks
or at golf. In the summers Mr.. Lloyd
George has been fond of going with
his wife and daughter upon camping
excursions, living out of doors and
cooking the meals in Gypsy fashion
He returns from such holidays with

FRANCES NAVAL HERO

Admiral Boue de Lapeyrere, COM
mander of the French naval forces.
is as popular in France as is Admiral
Jellicoe in England. He entered the
French navy nearly forty years ago,
and from the outset of his career he
displayed marked ability.
One of his early commands was in
China, when he obtained distinction
at the battle of Foo-Chow. His flag
ship led the attack against the
enemy, and the personal courage he
displayed made him the hero of
France. Since then he has success
fully conducted several diplomatic ex-
petitions in the Baltic and the Medi-
terranean.
1t has always been the policy OF
Admiral Lapeyrere to accompany his
fleet in the fighting line. He is not
believer in armchair commanding.

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beauti-
full glossy, silky hair, do by all means
get rid of dandruff, for it will starve
your hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it. then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub 1t in gently
with the finger tips.
BY morning, most il 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.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel hundred
times better. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store 1t is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need,
no matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never fails
