AN 0LO REC Pc
To DARKEN HAIR
Common garden Sage and Sulphur
makes streaked, faded or gray hair
dark and youthful at once.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded. streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way
to get this mixture was to make 1t at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get a
large bottle OF this old time recipe i'm
proved by the addition Of other in
gradients for about 90 cents. Every
body uses this preparation now, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair as 1t does 1t
30 naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years young
or. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite.
1t is not intended for the cure, miti-
cation or prevention Of disease.

New York, Feb. 11.--William X.
Wilcox. chairman the republican
national committee, in a letter tonight
to George w. Perkins. and Everett
Colby. progressive members of the
republican campaign committee in the
recent election, announced his inten-
ton of calling meeting OF the ma
tional committee, probably in May or
June next. On January 81 Mr.. Per-
kins and Mr.. Colby addressed letter
to Mr.. Wilcox in which they urged
him to call meeting of the national
committee ito discuss fully and open
~ the grave and important questions
that confront our country today" s,,,
In his reply. Mr.. Wilcox points out
that it would be inopportune now to
call the national committee together.

which have brought our country to the
verge OF war.''7 3 pra f,si.. fr,- $500.
Mr. WILCOX calls attention to the
fact that the executive committee OF
the national committee at q recent
meeting, decided the, full committee
should maetlonceIa year instead OF
less frequently as had been the custom
in former years. He added, however,
that inasmuch as the national com
mittee had not met since last June.
he had intended calling 1t together
before the expiration OF the year,

Mr.. Colby's desire that the Republican
party should be the one cohesive or
ganization of the regular republican
vote. the progressiye-republican vote,
the progressive vote and the indepen-
dent vote Chairman Wilcox declar-
ed that the defeat of the republican
ticket, had shown that the effort
made to bring about reunited party
was largely successful"
"A committee has already been APP
pointed to consider plan for giving
proper recognition to all elements in

Germantown High

| As scholastic basketball has about come
| Ato a conclusion for the season and the
schoolboys turn their attention to outdoor
| sports, the selection of an all.interschola ic
team has been anxiously awaited. and.it is
no easy task
The writer has witnessed all the big
matches of the season and many other
games between schools in this section and
| been In a position to observe the ability OF
| the men picked to make up the teams Sc.
lected, Favoritsm or personal admirati
has played no part in the picking and the
players have gained the positions by sheer
ability alone. our first consideration in
selecting an allnterscholastc team are the
forwards.
Bunnin, OF Southern High. champion Of
| the lnterscholastic League, is in a class
by himself He has the happy faculty Of
knowing what to do, how and when to do
, II. is a fine floor worker and n good shot
from the floor and the best foul shooter in
the interscholastic or intercollegiate ranks
since the days OF kid" Keinath. of Central
High and University Of Pennsylvania, and
In fact, his performance from the foul line
in the last half Of the season Is as good
| as any Of the big professionals He is. there
fore. entitled to first choice and the cap
taincy.
As Bunnin's mate we have taken into
consideration Murphy. of Trades Moura-
dian, OF Central; Langner, of Germantown,
and Wattman, of Southern. and had North
casts two sterling wards-Me enhardt
and Sturgis-kept out OF scholas site troubles
both would have been very much in the
running. As 1t Is, Mouradian, of Central,
Is entitled to the position. He is as good
team worker as any, is a better floor man
and can stand more hard work Relieved
from the captaincy he would play even bet
ter than he has been during the league sea-
and would make splendid running
mate for Bunnin.
The next position is center and we have
Dondero, Of Southern; Morningred, of
Trades; Adams of West Philadelphia, and
Betzner, of Germantown. Betzner is enti-
tied to the berth, as he has consistently out
jumped all of his opponents, and the ad-
vantage he would give his team by handing
them the ball either from center or scrim-
mage jump would be invaluable. In add.
tion to this, he is the best defensive center
in the league.
For guards there are Hausser and Bur-
nett OF Germantown; Swartz and Hack
man, OF Central OBrien, of Northeast and
Milestone, OF Southern. Hausser, of Ger
mantown would be first choice. as he is a
heady player and invariably plays the ball
and not the man, and commits few fouls
He is the best guard In the league. Bur-
nett Swartz and O'Brien are much of the
same type of guards all like to go down
the floor to score and their opponents US
ually have many opportunities TO shoot.
None of them seem to be able to cover
quickly without fouling. The other guard
therefore, lies between Hackman. OF Cen
