How TO Judge a
Woman by Her Hair

There are always the well-known
and semi-humorous methods, such as
saying brunettes are quick-tempered
or blondes are keener in their men
tai activity. But there is real COM
mon sense in just noticing whether
the hair is well kept to Judge wo-
mans neatness. or in looking at her
style of arranging her hair. to de-
eide whether or not she has good
taste. If you are one of the few who
try to make the most Of your hair.
remember that il is not advisable to
wash the hair with any cleanser made
for all purposes, but always use some
good preparation made expressly for
shampooing. You can enjoy the very
best by getting some canthrox from
your druggist and dissolving a tea
spoonful in a cup of hot water when
your shampoo is all ready. After its
use the hair dries rapidly with uni
form color. Dandruff, excess oil and
dirt are dissolved and entirely dis
appear. Your hair will be so fluffy
that II will look much heavier than
it is. It's lustre and softness will
also delight you, while the stimulated
scalp gains the health which insures
hair growth.

OTHERS HAVE DONE WORSE.
THE OLD SWIMMING HOLE.

Down in the meadow, and over the
fence.
Deep in q daised bowl;
Sheltered and silent with moss COW
cred banks.
There was our swimming hole.
Graded in sunlight. fleoked through
the trees.
With blue sky arched above;
T. see the old familiar spot.
With all the old time love.
I see the fellows, Doc and Ned.
And Sam and Mike and Joe:
Standing high upon the bank,
To dive in the pool below.
All are in, the pool is churned,.
Us fellows splash and duck;
And feel around for bullies and cells,
Sometimes with splendid luck.
An then hear old Doc sing out.
"Geei Waters fine today;
Hey. you Tigel Put down that shirt
Down down with il, I say"
Old Sam and Ned are wrestling,
And splashing water high;
And Skinny's trying hard 10 float,
Whib Tom does a fancy dive.
And then we all come trooping out,
Shivering and chilled TO the bone;
We separate at Johnsons fence,
And sheepishly go home.
! Mother asks US where we've been,
Then spies my own wet head;
She doctors US with quinine pills,
And sends us straight to bed.
/ And so once more I wander
Though the years have had theil
toll:
Yet II does me good TO ponder

thing, he said, for which he felt con-
demned. Many years ago, while trav-

salesman suggested TO DR.. Porter

grave. to throw his voice" in the
casket and see what would take place
No sooner had the suggestion been
made than DR.. Porter called forth
Let me down easy.1 Thinking that
the man was alive, the people became
almost panic stricken. The casket
was dropped and several Of the men
pounced upon It and began battering
in the lid and badly mutilated the
body. Finding that life was still ex-
einct and noticing that DR.. Porter
was a short distance from the burial
ground, some Of them knew that he
was a ventriloquist and gave chase
His life was probably saved by the
swiftness Of the horse which they
were driving.

Do not propose 70 a girl while on

DO not propose TO a girl while
al one OF the hotel dances. for she'll
lead you a dance. and in addition TO
that. will make you pay for the mu-
sic.
Do not propose TO a girl while
in bathing You'll never be able to
breaker" and she'll more than like
ly keep you in hot water all the time.
Avoid the girl who does fancy

You'll like the girl with plenty OF

grain Of salt

The Junior Literary Society, which
is composed Of the seventh and eighth
grades, will hold its regular semi

gram will be rendered:

Judging from the pep exhibited
by the Junior Literary Society at its
recent meetings, next Fridays ses-
sion will excel any heretofore held.
The debate at the last meeting was an
especially interesting one and would
have reflected credit on the Senior So
ciety, which is composed Of the ninth,
tenth and eleventh grades. The quo
tation contest, though a new feature,
showed that it can be profitable and
will be used on future programs.
This number was suggested by Supt.
Fl. p. Broussard, who is frequent
and most welcome visitor.
to have the grand jury visit US when
to the high school Wednesday after
noon and visited all the rooms and
also the library. All commented up
on the latter and said it was one of
the best school Libraries in the state,
and that the students should be proud
of it and cooperate in maintaining
it's present standard. We are sure this
standard will rank among the highest,
with our diligent and progressive IL
brarian at its head We should like
to have the grand ury visit US when
their stay can be longer, SO that they
may appreciate the good work OF the
! high school.
