omaAa's Great Garbage Problem.

Once more the city commission is siding up
to the garbage question with much the same
mincing approach that marks the dainty person
in dealing with the odoriferous can. The efiu-
vium Is not pleasant, nor will II be made the
more bearable until the whole affair has been dis
infected and cleansed. So long as private profit
inures from this public function, just that long it
will have a disagreeable odor whenever the lid
Is tilted,
This is not a new topic, but has again and
again been brought before the public, always to
be temporized with through the council adopting
some makeshft measure that does not as much
as paliae, let alone remove, the cause Of offense
1t will not be alleged that the present is the worst
condition in which the garbage question has been
found-t is only the latest. What is needed is
that the commission take some action that will
provide for the removal and disposition Of gar
bage on basis that will keep the city clean, and
that will not contain the elements Of scandal.
This can be done without hardship to any. and in
justice and common decency ii ought to be done
without delay.

The Case for Food Control.

Debate on the food control measures pending
before congress has taken wide range, but the
main point, so far as it affects the city dweller
and the wage worker, has been overlooked. The
plain fact is that, no matter what the cause, the
cost OF living has advanced more rapidly than
pay given to workers who must buy for their
needs out OF wage whose purchasing power Is
steadily diminishing. Moreover wages and saia-
ries have been raised to point where the coun-
try's industries can 60 little Il any farther This

It will be because prohtecrs and spectators have

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful. Just plain mulsifed
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely 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 it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily. and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man.
age.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months.
