THE NIGHT SCHOOLS
open MONDAY EVENING

The night schools of the city opened
Monday evening at the high school. the
Smith school and the Webster school
buildings and the registration showed
an attendance which was about normal.
School sessions will be held the first
four evenings Of each week.
At the opening Of the high school
evening classes the Technology Extern
sion department of the University Of
Maine received applications for cours-
es in Industrial mathematics, direct
current and alternating current cleo
tricity. electric power plant engineering
and water power. During the fall term
courses will be given in industrial
mathematics and electricity and pos
sibly other subjects. These classes
will meet each Monday evening in the
high school building. Though work
will be taken up at once, registration
will not be closed for some weeks, and
all interested should consult Supt. OF
Schools H. H. Stuart or attend the
earliest meeting Of the class.
The showing made Monday evening
in this department was very encourage
ing. AS the work becomes better
known many more will take advantage
of this opportunity to better them
selves. There are no special educa-
tional requirements. so an incomplete
grade school training does not prevent
men from enrolling.

new YORK HAS
COAL SHORTAGE
and BIG PRICES
Outlook for Immediate Relief
from Depleted Bins, Delayal
of Shipments Poor

New York, Oct. ia shortage of
coal is in prospect for this city this
winter. according to the dealers. who
declare their bins are being depleted,
their shipments delayed and that the
outlook for immediate relief is poor.
The shortage applies to both hard and
soft coal.
Failure to receive the usual amount
OF coal is attributed to a scarcity of
labor at the mines and lack Of cars for
transportation, due to the movements
Of war munitions and other freight for
export.
Prices to New York householders for
stove and nut coal vary from 81 to
$775. Dealers declare that. with sea-
sonable weather, 50 coal is not too high
to expect at Christmas.

Why Society Women Wash
Their Own Hair I

Few realize how many society wo-
men now wash their own hair, not
because it is a fad, but because they
wish to obtain the greatest possible,
hair beauty and be sure they are not
using anything harmful. The thou
sands who, have found that in wash
ing the hair it is never wise to use a
makeshift, but is always advisable to
use preparation made for shampoo
ing only, say they get the best re-
suits from simple homemade can
throx mixture. You can enjoy this,
the best that is known, for about three
cents shampoo by getting some
canthrox from your druggist, and dis
solving feaspoonful in cup of hot
water. Your shampoo is now ready.
After its use the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color. Dandruff, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and en-
tirely disappear. J Your,hair will be so
fluffy that i will look much heavier
than it is. Its luster and softness will
also delight you, while the stimulated
scalp gains the health which insures
hair Observation-Disclosures.
