OLYMPIA, Jan. II. - The
"bone dry" law probably will be
sent through both houses of the
legislature practically as it was in
troduced-without an emergency
clause, and without a referendum
clause.
This was practically agreed up
on following a conference last
night between the joint public
morals committees of the house
and senate and Attorney General
Tanner.
After Tanner had gone over the
various phases of the bill with the
committee, the members agreed
that an emergency clause, block
ing off the right of referendum,
would be contrary to the principles
of popular government.
On the other hand, they believed
public opinion Is so strongly in
favor OF a bone dry" law as to
make a referendum clase in the
bill unnecessary.
Tanner said he believed the
liquor organization in the state
had practically disappeared and

taking one small strand at a time.
The effect is amazing-your hair
will be light, fluffy and wavy,
and have an appearance of abund-
ance; an Incompatible luster,
softness and luxuriance.
Get q 25-cent bottle Of Knowl-

NATIONAL PROHIBITION

At present we see the great
need of National Prohibition and
much is being done to establish
temporary prohibition of the
liquor traffic during the war. If
Prohibition is so essential during
wartime, which indeed it is,
then why not make it permanent.
We need strong healthy men in
peace time just as we'll as in war
time.
National Prohibition is coming
and coming to stay, and we be-
lieve it is nearer than ever before.
