DISTRICT BUILDING.

The District Commissioners last
week broke all records for remaining
in continuous session when they spent
twenty five hours at the District build
ing arranging for arbitration of the
street car strike. From the moment
the strike began the Commissioners
were ION the job and they didn't
stop even for meals until after the
strikers and the company officials had
agreed to get together and adjust their
differences
Judging from the extent of the con-
gratulatory messages they have re-
ceived over the telephone and through
the mails. the Commissioners success
full effort to end the strike is regarded
by WaShngtonianS about the
browning achievement of their admin
istratiou. At all events ii has been

of Commissioners has come in for such

NEVER LET
HER HAIR GET GRAY
Kept Her Locks Youthful,
Dark and Glossy with Com
mon Garden Sage
and Sulphur

When you darken your hcir with Sage
Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, be,
cause it's done so naturally, so evenly.
Preparing this mixture, though, at home
is mussy and troublesome. For 30 cents
you can buy at any drug store the
ready-to-use preparation, improved by
the addition Of other ingredients, called
"Wyeth' IS Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" You just dampen a sponge "
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. By morning all gray
hair disappears, and, after another ap-
plicatiOn Or two, your hair becomes
beautifully darkened, glossy and
luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is a sign of old age, and as we all de-
sire youthful and attractive appear
ance, get busy at once with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound and look
years younger This ready-to.use pre-
paration is delightful toilet re-.
quisite and not a medicine 1t is not
intended for the cure, mitigation or
prevention of disease.

was also satisfactory to j. W. Maru-
ney president of the Salem Floral So
eiety. This society intends to take an
active part in the fair with its floral
displays and flower contests, besides
the giving of special program Mon
day night at the armOry.
Walter Denton tlsGred n fair Of
two days and hoped that it would be
run as economically as possible. On mo-
tion of T. B. Kay, the meeting favored
down town celebration Monday Jult
3, and a general all around old fash
ioned Fourth Of July celebration on
July !, at the fair grounds with rae.
ing, sports and plenty of fire works.
This action will be referred to the di-
Tectors of the Commercial club for ap-
proval.
The plans for the Cherry fair now
include a floral and cherry display at
the armory Monday afternoon, to be
preceded by a baby parade, with
awards given at the armory 1t has
also been suggested that children take
part in the parade, carrying flags. Tae
evening at the armOry viii include
patriotic exercises, with plenty of mus
ic. The second day of the celebration
will be at the fair grounds. And in
all probabilities, the new idea of the
fair will be in giving everybody all
the cherries they can eat. The first
dJy will be one of eating cherries and
a genuine good time.

The Salem annual Cherry fair will
be neld this year on two days, Mon

was decided last evening at the meet
ing held at the Commercial club. The
first day of the celebration will be
given to the baby parade and cherry
exhibit with a floral show at the

in connection with exercises and a pa
Tade by the school children and special

the cherry fair, there will be a cherry
feast, in which everyone will be invit-
ed to eat, enjoy themselves and be
merry. Cherries will not only be dis
played, but they will be free for all
who wish to eat.
As the fair is to be rather in the
way of pleasure event and all around
good time, it is felt that there will be
no difficulty in getting donations of
cherries in sufficient quantities from
patriotic citizens to supply>t the wants
OF the crowd bota Monday afternoon
and evening at the armory. 1t will
be free cherry feast
