1t is MrSBrownlow's plan to graphically
picture the advancement of American
government. industry. business and art 50
that 1t can be easily grasped by spec
tators.
Mr.. Brownlow suggests that an appro-
pirate amphitheater site in or near Wash

q site for an open-air amphitheater to ac-
commodate 10000 people can be found.
Once We have located the site. our next
step would be to recruit q small army OF
the nations foremost men In every branch
Of work and have each make suggestions
regarding appropriate exhibitions OF his
particular work.
II would suggest a tableaux-drama that
would unfold in chronological order Amer

eating all with the details of our social
and industrial development"

MESSENGER BOYS ''UP'
AGAINST REAL POSER
If You're, Not Ready to Be Soldier. It's
mix" on You.

Did your mother raise you to be a
soldter?'
The kid who rs going down to the West
ern Union Telegraph Office with his eye
on the blue uniform runs up against this
question the very FIRST thing.
The Western Union heads know lot
about boys. They have to contend with
about $50 of them every day, and have
discovered two kinds Of boys. The one
kind are timid, senteel. or fussy. When
they have to work they seek the most
senteel environments, likely q department
store. The other kind-well, read 'Sev-
enteen."
The Western Union is not going to en-
trust its messages with fussy, genteel.
imid young men. To make very sure
that none of this sort slips past him, the
employing agent fires this question at
every one:
Did your mother raise you to be a
soldier"
1t is goodnight for the boy who seems
to have any doubt about the matter, or
who seems to lack the qualities soldier
should have.
Happily, the great majority admit the
accusation and are willing to Swear It on
the family Bible. or prove 1t at the first
opportunity.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR.

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their curls as their chief
beauty? In fact, many are leading
ladies just because of their attractive
locks. Inquiry among them dis
closes the fact that they bring out
all the natural beauty of their hair
by careful shampooing, not with any
soap or makeshift, but with a sim
pie mixture by putting teaspoonful
of canthrox (Which they get from
the druggist) in a cup of hot water
and applying this instead of soap.
This full cup of shampoo liquid is
enough so it is easy to apply it to all
the hair instead of just the top of
the head. After its use, the hair
dries rapidly with uniform color
Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. The
hair is SO fluffy that it looks much
heavier than it is, while its luster and
softness is delizhtful-Adv.

When questioned yesterday con.
corning his recent trip as secretary Of

worth OF bullion that had not been re-
ported and on which taxes had not
been paid. says the Carson News. The
major portion of this was foundin one
county.
Mr.. Fletcher says that he finds
very little hostility toward tax com.
mission, the feeling in this respect be.
ing markedly different from what II
was throughout the state few years
ago.
