Most soaps and prepared shampoos

very injurious, as 1t dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain

Buy a Liberty bond and step lively, is my advice to all who ask me what the civilian can do to help win the war" said c. H. Reuben, local repre- sentative for the Dort Motor Car com pany.
 Every civilian who has been doing useful work in peace times can make -.at. same work douoly useful in war times, for the efficiency of cur indds- trial and agricultural organization is Just as material to eventual success as are the accomplishments of our soldiers and sailors.
 Therefore the civilians bit is to do the task he is best fitted for better than he ever did before: to do it with greater concentration, less waste of time, and that brand of enthusiasm commonly called, pep.
 It is the bounden obligation of the farmer to raise more crops, of the manufacturer of necessities to make more goods; of the railroads to n- New York in order that lie might share the pride and patriotism of the company's employees.

EMPLOYING WOMEN IN FAC
TORIES.

Some time ago the editor noticed
where the furniture plant at Pilot
Mountain had hired several white
women to take the places of men at
the front. Now it seems that High
Point manufacturers will try out the
plan of women help. In fact one
factory is reported as having several
negro women already in the var
nishing rooms. If the war is pro-
longed many women will likely find
work in the factories. since help is
getting scarce. Many experienced
men are at work ON the army can
tonments and in other ways for the
government and the female help is
to offset it as far as possible.
