Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
it's best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub >. in. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, which rinses
out easily, removing every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly,
and it leaves the scalp soft, and the
hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
few ounces will supply every men,
Der of the family for months.-Adv.

Conservation League Elects
Officers and Probes Bread

The Woman Voters Conservation
league met Tuesday night at the
home of Mrs. F. J. Birss, 1908 Lincoln
Boulevard
New officers were elected as fol-
lows: President, Mrs. Mary Z.
Howe; recording secretary, Mrs. Ray
]. Abbott; treasurer, Miss Edna Birss.
Mrs. A. c. Anderson was reelected
vlce-president.
The S cent loaf of bread was the
subject of considerable discussion,
and investigation tended to show that
the bakers had not had time to avail
themselves of the reduced price Of
flour as yet. An investigation COM
mittee to probe the subject further
consists of Mrs. Frances Follansbee,
Mrs. Ray J. Abbott, and Mrs. Mary
E. Howe!
The project of a third municipal
drying plant, in addition to the two
already established by these women,
was referred to the conservation COM
mittee, of which Mrs. A. c. Anderson
is chairman.
The next meeting of the league will
be held on September 20 and will be
in the nature of reception to the
retiring officers.
Ten new members were voted in at
the meeting on Tuesday night. The
entire membership of the league is
working in the registration of women

young men can be, and we hardly
know which we like the best. Cap
tain Bronze of Company A is so digni-
fed we are little afraid of him. SO
we usually approach Lieutenant Nc
Hugh or Lieutenant Hayes for news.
But Captain Bronze is so popular
with his men that we know. he must
be a good fellow"
Captain Keating of Company B is
likewise dignifed and very, busy. We
sometimes halt him in the middle OF
the street to ask for news, for that is
the only time we can catch him. We
have quite "sneaking feelin " in our
heart for Captain Heating.
captain Risch of Company D came
from Holland and has just that quiet
culture and ease of manner that
makes Americans envious of Euro
peans. We certainly enjoy talking
with him and he is never too busy.
We adore Captain Metcalfe, for he
always has some stories for us. He
can spot a good story through a
three-foot stone wall and saves them
for US.
We like everybody up at the
Armory. Captain Gardner and his
staff are real live wires and Omaha
will miss them.
We used to go out to Fort Crook
before the Fourth went away. There
it was said Colonel Baehr had his
quarters. But we never saw him.
Once we caught faint glimpse of a
dark handsome man fleeing down the
back stairs.
The colonel is modest to fault and
the mere rumor that a woman re-
porter was in the building would send
him hurrying away. He was faith
fully guarded by ~6aptain Rusland
who never even let US telephone to
him except once. We liked the COL
oneps voice, then.
This is the Life"
There we're many interesting per-
sons at Fort Crook, chief of whom
was Major Birknet, who could tell fine
tales about "der kaiser" in the days
when he and the major were green
soldiers in the German army together.
We were particularly fond of the
machine company of the Fourth for
its members always had some news.
Coming to the opposite side Of
town, there is Fort Omaha. We like
Fort Omaha, but it doesn't like u.s.
Of course we know the orders all
come from the War department and
we bear no i'll will. But we do hope
some day the bars will be lifted and
we can get some real news from Fort
Omaha
By the way, we have mentioned
that word news several times, haven't
we. You can see it plays large part
in our lives. That is why, we would
tell the girls of Omaha this is the
life," but it isn't a bed of roses.

Comptroller Alleges Dead
Bank Head Biq Defaulter

Washington, Sept. 12-Comptroller
Williams issued a statement tonight
asserting investigation had disclosed
that the late J. B. Martindale, presi-
dent of the Chemical National bank
of New York who died in July, 1917,
was an embezzler and forger to the
extent of about $3OO,OOO. The amount
was taken, the comptroller announced,
from the account of wealthy de-
positor, and the bank has arranged
to make good the entire sum.
The capital and surplus of the bank
amounting to $l0,000,000, Mr.. Will
Jams said, were not impaired in the
slightest degree by the alleged opera
tions of Martindale.

One Lor some Soldier Gets
Letter from Lonesome Girl

Sergeant Martin Brown of Com
pany A, Sixth Nebraska, had a smile
that wouldn't come off this morning.
He had just received a letter from a
girl out in the state who read in
Sundays Bee that he was lonely
and wanted someone to write to him
at Deming.
Pay Day.
Today was pay day for the Fourth
regiment in Omaha. Theye was just
one check given out and Sergeant
Hansen OF the army recruiting office
was paymaster. Lieutenant Bruett
who was left behind by the Fourth
when it went to Deming to recruit
for the regiment, stood "in line this
morning till the safe at the recruiting
Office was opened, then went on his
way smiling.
Mascots Want to Go.
Out in Riverview park are two
wildcats with longing look in their
eyes since the news of the approach
ing entrainment of the soldiers for
Demlng has gone abroad.
These two cats were captured on
the border last year by the Fifth
machine gun company and brought
along as mascots when they returned
They were presented to the park
when the company was mustered out
and are very comfortable, but they
would much prefer travelling back tc
their native haunts with their friends
of the Fifth this week.
Briggs Gets Gun.
Sergeant Briggs, formerly captain
of police in South Omaha, was pre-
sented Monday with a fine silver
mounted revolver by the members OF
the South Side station. The revolver
is an automatis Colt No. As, a gov
ernment model. Captain Briggs was
also chief of police for fourteen years
in South Omaha previous to his two
and half years service as captain.
The revolver was presented as token
of appreciation of this long service
by his friends and coworkers in South
Omaha.
Thermos Bottle to Fifth.
The firm of David O'Brien, manu-
facturers of thermos bottles and con-
tainers, has presented the machine
gun company of the Sixth with a
large thermos container. This will be
used on the way to Deming to keep
