II, as Bill Day writes in an account
of the tax budget meeting in the
Medford Mail Tribune, every other
seat was filled" the question arises,
Was there anyone there? For if only
every other seat was filled, every seat
would necessarily be empty, and if
every seat was empty the crowd must
have either been standing or absent.

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep yf,ur hair In good
condition, be careful what you wash 1t
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle. and il
very harmful. Just plain mu1siffed CO.
coanut oil (which Is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub 1t in. One or two teaspoonfuIs
will make an abundance Of rich, creamy
lather. and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily. and removes every particle Of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and It
leaves 1t fine and silky. bright, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get n1uIsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It is very
cheap and a few ounces is enough to
las. everyone in the family for months.

| aspect and capacity of the local prop
erty, and result in the reduction of the
| track grade thru the west part of the

tracks will be pushed out upon it. Cuts
will be made alongside the track in
the western part Of the city, prepara-
tory to the track revision work planned
for next year. which will then involve
only the removal Of more earth and the
replacing Of the track in the lower
grade.

ings and building new ones in the yard
has been begun. The demolishing OF
the old freight house and general Of
