(By Associated Press.l

Washington, July 12.-small men

in the revised opinion of the war de-
partment which has instructed re-
cruiting stations to open the ranks
Of the regular army to men no more
than five feet one inch in height and
who weigh only ITO pounds.
The order was issued on the basis
Of a recommendation made by Surg
con General Gorgas. who advised
that good men were being kept out
by the minimum height and weight
limit of five feet four inches and 100
pounds. AS a matter of fact, how
ever, recruiting officers had been in
structed not to enforce rigidly the
height and weight minimum limits
and there are a considerable num-
Der now in the army who are below
the five feet four requirement.
The new orders will have a wide
effect in national guard recruiting
and probably in selections for the ma
tional army. Regular army stand
ards govern both of these services in
general way.
The regular army was still short
some forty thousand men when re-
cruiting closed yesterday, only l.
226 men having been accepted dur
ing the day. Vermont added two
men, making 81, furnished from that

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkai. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsifi-
ed cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lath-
er rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive OIL The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsif1ed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and "a few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months.

Washington, July 12.-President
Wilson appealed to the country's
business interests last night to put
aside every selfish consideration and
to give their aid to the nation as
freely as those who go out to offer
their lives on the battle field. In a
statement addressed to the coal OPP
orators and manufacturers he gave
assurances that just prices will be
paid by the government and the pub
lie during the war but warned that
no attempt to extort unusual profits
will be tolerated.

the patriotism of the men dead and

is no patriotism at all. Let us then

BRILLIANT MUSIC
FEATURES FIXED
FOR FARGO FAIR
Second Regiment Band
From Harvey Included
in List of Attractions

One of the browning features of
the big Interstate fair will be the eX-
cellent programs arranged for the
entertainment of visitors by the
music committee. The Second Regi-
ment band which is to be formally
mustered in to the army on July
Is is one of the best band or
CARNATIONS in the country. AS the
Harvey band II has always stood
high among the musicians of the
state and under the direction of Mr..
Backman will present one Of the best
programs ever given before a North
Dakota audience. Special arrange
ments have been made with the Sec
ond Regiment band for a patriotic
concert in front OF the grandstand
on the night of Friday, July 81.
Printed programs of the concert will
be distributed among the audience
together with the words Of the pa
triotic songs and the audience will
be asked to join with the band and
sing the songs as arranged on the
program.
The well-known and ever popular
Larimore Hussar band will be one
of the stellar attractions on the
grounds. This band is no stranger
to fair audiences as it has been
with us before and has given gen.
eral satisfaction wherever 1t has
appeared.
The Fargo band. under the direc-
ton of Mr. Rudd, needs no introduc-
ton to a Fargo audience as its
work is well known and greatly ap-
preciated by all lovers of music
throughout the territory tributary to
Fargo.
The musical program at this years
fair will be very comprehensive and
the bands will be stationed at differ
ent parts of the grounds, furnishing
music throughout the entire day.
The bands will parade in the down.
town districts in the mornings, leav-
ing for the grounds between 10 and
IL o'clock.
One of the interesting features OF
the exhibits will be a special exhibit
put on by the Extension Department
of the Agricultural college, showing
the methods of drying fruit which
can be used in every farm home, thus
conserving the resources of the coun-
try in the most approved manner. A
corps of ladies will be on hand CIV
ing demonstrations in canning the
actual fruit and other articles will
be canned right in the Agricultural
building and the demonstrators will
be prepared to lecture and explain
to all fair visitors the proper methods
of preserving fruits and vegetables
and charts will be displayed upon
the walls fully explaining everything
in connection with this work. This
will be a feature which will UNI
doubtedly appeal to every housewife
whether from town or country.

with very little regard for his health,
who will groom and care for these

deal of interest in this exhibit is
being shown and a great many IN

tary's office as to whether it is really
so that the alligators are going to be
alive and unless the alligators are
wrecked between here and Florida
and killed on the road, they VIII
surely be alive and on the fair
grounds the week Of July 1928.

Joseph Chapman, vice-president OF

The Optimist and the Pessimist. One
of the questions given consideration
in his address dealt with the provi-
sions that should be taken for the
marketing of the wheat crop.
"A plan is being worked out by MIR.
Hoover and his men," said Mr.. Chap
man, "for the controlling Of the
profits of mills in the making OF
flour and fixing the maximum at 20

Vice president Chapman stated
that there were many pessimists in

to the sinking of the ships by sub
marines, but who omit to read
about the large number Of vessels
