TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT

1t is not necessary to shampoo your
hair so frequently if it is entirely and
properly cleansed each time by the
use of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
shampoo that we can recommend to
our readers is one that brings out all
the natural beauty of the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little expense,
by dissolvng a teaspoonful of can
thrcx. which can be obtained from
any druggist, in a cup of hot water
This makes full cup of shampoo
liquid, enough so it is easy to apply
it to all the hair instead of just the
top of the head. This when rubbed
into the scalp and onto every strand
o: hair, chemically dissOlvos all i'm
purities. 1t is very soothing and
. cooling in its action, as well as bene-
ficial to both scalp and hair. After
rinsing out the lather so created, you
will find the scalp fresh, clean and
free from dandruff while the hair
dries quickly and evenly, developing
bright lIster and evenly, developing
that makes it seem very heavy.

CANNING FACTORY IN
HIGH SCHOOL CELLAR
Club Women Get Busy on Food
Conservation Plan; May
Establish Market.

A committee. representing the Fed
: Grated Women's clubs Of the city will
meet with the school board within
the next week for the purpose of Sc
curing permission to establish in the
basement rooms of the old high
school building a cooperative can
ming factory and municipal market.
This announcement was made last
night and follows the declaration by
Dr {. f.. Earnhart, county farm dem
onstrator, last week that steps should
be taken by the local food cOnserVa-
tion committees to cooperate with
the farmers and truck growers, who
produce sufficient quantities of food
but who were unable, because of the
scarcity of canning equipment to
properly conserve the food produced.
Need Is Apparent.
The matter of securing the school
basement was taken up by the eXecu-
tive officers of the women's clubs
after Doctor Earnhart had pointed
out the need of a market and canning
plant, and last night Mrs. c. T.. Iah-
man declared that every effort would
be made to secure the place and to
cooperate win tne farmers.
Already committees from the sew
eral women's clubs are engaged in
securing all surplus jelly glasses and
cans, and these will be distributed
thruout the families of the city who
have the food to preserve but are un-
able to secure cans and glasses.
Mrs. l.ahman also stated last night
that the offer of the Kerr Glass fac
tory. to donate the model canning
plant, would be accepted and that an
effort would be made to secure ex-
rerts from the agricultural college at
Stllwell to give the demonstrations.
AS the old high school building
will not be used for school purposes
in the future. it is possible that the
basement and first floor may be re-
modelled into city market, it was
