City Hall, Tuesday, Oct. 80

Since the ticket sale has begun for the
Camoufage party. set for October go at City
hall, and since the decorating committee has
gone silently and secretly at work on great
camoufaging endeavor, and since il has been
noised about that great things to see to
eat and to hear may be expected, the local
interest has increased TO fever heat.
What is this camouhage. and who dis
covered it and what has it to do with par
tyc'' are questions heard repeatedly.
Roy X. Moulton says it was invented by
Old Man Camoufe. himself a noted savant
and patron of the arts. According to the
story, NJ. Camoufe noted COW grazing in
an adjacent meadow. He obtained a pot of
PAINT and by cleverly re-arranging the spots
made the COW look like goat then like
.-,rn crib and finally like a Ford. This was
the small beginning but it gave rise to a
mighty military art.
How this art can be tanned for the pur-
suits Of peace and set at work for the bene-
lit OF the Red Cross and G. A. R. is the

T0DAY'S BEAUTY talk

You can enjoy delightful shampoo
with very little effort and for very
trifing cost, if you get from your
druggist package of canthrox and
dissolve a teaspoonful in cup of hot
water. This makes a 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. Your sham-
poo is now ready. Just pour little
at time on the scalp and hair until
both are entirely covered by the
daintily perfumed preparation that
thoroughly dissolves and removes
every bit of dandruff, excess oil and
dirt. After rinsinG, the hair dries
quickly. with a fiuffiness that makes it
seem heavier than it IS, and takes on a
rich luster and softness that makes
arranging it a pleasure.-Adv.

j. s. FIGHTERS
Prisoners Say Their Armies
Are Eager to Get a Crack
at the Americans
PERSHING INSISTS
ON RIFLE PRACTICE
General Criticises Chasing
For with Bayonet When |
: He Can Be Shot

With the American Army in France,
Oct. 5.-According to German prisoners
with whom American soldiers in France
have discussed the war, the reason the
Germans are holding on the western
front is to get crack at the Ameri-
cans" The Americans provoked this
remark by conveying to the prisoners
their desires to get crack at the Ger
mans" Thaining that goes forward at
the American training camp is being
watched and criticised by Major General
Pershing. He is emphasizing the need
of the rife more. American soldiers
have always been marksmen, and Perish
ing believes they should apply their
talents in this direction. He remarked
that he had heard of men in this war
chasing Germans hundred yards with
bayonet or bomb when it would have
been easier and more efficient to stop
and shoot. British instructors neglect
musketry for the bomb and bayonet, but
Pershing insists on using the chief
American weapon, the rife, as well as
the implements on which the allies lay
stress.
