ALKALI IN SOAP
BAD FOR THE HAIR

Soap should be used very care
fully. il you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut
oil (which Is pure and greaseless) /,
and is better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you
can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub 1t in. II
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 IL 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 sup
ply every member of the family
for months. adv.

supply would have to be worked
out.
Feeding a million means moth
ing until it is translated into plain,
everyday terms that anybody can
grasp. Then you can begin to get
a notion Of what a stupendous un-
dertaking it is.
If you imagine all the men in
Boston, Cincinnati, Cleveland, De-
troit, Kansas City, Milwaukee,
Minneapolis and Omaha brought
together in one body you get a
rough idea of what an army of a
million is.
Then transport them across the
ocean, along with the horses,
mules, motor trucks, and other
equipment and put yourself in the
position of responsibility of see
ing that they get their bread and
meat and coffee and hay and
gasoline and all the hundred
other things that must reach
them every day as surely as the
sun rises.
If you can see all this in your
minds eye, you will have a crude,
incomplete notion of the task that
is staggering the quartermaster's
division Of the war department
today.
'Quartermaster General Sharpe
has furnished an estimate, made
last December, just before the last
big rise in prices, of what 1t would
cost and how long it would take
to provide food and clothing for
million men. The figures would
have to be increased at least 10
per cent to bring them In line
with present prices. 1.
He estimates that in three
months he could get together
three months supply of
food at cost of S27, 100000
sad the fuel which could be

900 more.


Field bakeries and rolling
kitchens to feed a million could
not be secured in less than four
months and would cost $2,S31.
900. OF course the troops would
nave to be fed all the time they
were In training, and this would
not only add to the cost. but
would increase the difficulty OF
securing food and other supplies
that would have to go abroad.
But making these allowances
there is no reason, as far as food
is concerned, why the first of the
million men could not start in six
months.
But soldiers must be clothed as
well as fed. and here is where the
government must speed up and
reorganize its methods. Quarter
master General Sharpe estimates
that in about six months he could
secure enough socks, underwear
and shoes for a million men. But
when 1t comes to uniforms end
other articles that must be spe-
cially made, he estimates they
could not be obtained in less than
IL months.
This is where the Council for
National Defense must show its
capacity for organization and the
cutting OF red tape. The task OF
helping the war department ito
solve this problem of getting uni
forms and other clothing in one
third of the time that the war de-
partment thinks 1t will take, has
been put in the hands Of JdIfns
Rosenwald, council member, and
1t is up to him o'show what the
talent that organized the mail or
der business on O stupendous
scale can do.

Afterward, when l was able
to prove to that girl that she

enough so her better &C.

wants the early kiss, has a

unfortunate condition has
