Chamber of Commerce Urges Them to
 Take Liberty Bonds.

Tn letter mailed Thursday to every member on its roll. the Chamber of Commerce calls upon them to sub first contribution toward her part in the great war.
 The letter reads as follows:
 As members Of the Chamber of Com n1erce we owe certain civic duty to our country. We are banded together as an organization for that purpose. What greater duty as members of the to the honor and glory of our country than to purchase a liberty bond to- day?
 The liberty loan Is made by the arms and equipment for American sol- diers and sailors, food and supplies for the American army and navy. The money is to be spent in America for those Americans who are fighting on our side on the various war fronts of Europe. It's Americas first contribu- ton toward doing her part in the great war we are engaged in.
 Our president desires me to state these few facts to our full member ship and to urge the great need of rendering to our organization, to the town of Norwich, to the state of Con necticut and to the federal government such instant service we believe ev- der not as a patriotic duty, but as great privilege for the manifold bless ings we are and have long been per nitted to enjoy under a republican form of government.
 We believe fully 75 per cent. of our full membership has already sub scribed for such bonds. We <want it said of the Norwich chamber that ev- cry member stepped forward and per formed his duty when the call came.

Alkali Makes Soap
 Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared sharnpoos contain too much alkaii, which is very injurious, az it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cecoanut oil. for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store. and a few ounces will last the whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub 1t in, about a teaspoonfuf is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather. cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh' looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff

The baby, if the mother starts It
