A CREAMY LOTION
MADE WITH LEMONS
Prepare q quarter pint at about
the cost Of q small Jar Of
common cold cream.

When this homemade lemon lotion
is generally massaged into the face,
neck. hands and arms daily, the skin
naturally should become soft, clear
and white, and the complexion dainty
and attractive.
What girl or woman hasn't heard
OF lemon juice to remove complexion
blemishes: to bleach the skin and to
bring out the roses, the freshness and
tho hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore irritating,
and should be mixed with orchard
white this way. Strain through a
fine cloth the juice OF two fresh
lemons into a bottle containing about
three ounces of orchard white, then
shake we'll and you have a whole
quarter pint of skin and compilation
lotion at about the cost one usually
pays for a small jar of ordinary cold
cream. Be sure to strain the lemon
Juice so no pulp gets into the bottle,
then this lotion will remain pure and
fresh for months. When applied daily
to the face, neck, arms and hands II
naturally should help to whiten,
clear, smoother and beautify.
Any druggist will supply three
ounces OF orchard white at very
little cost and the grocer has the
lemons. In this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion ladies can easily pre-
pare and have an inexpensive toilet
aid which perfectly satisfies their
natural desire for a beautiful soft

nOuncement on Training Camp.

Only those members of the Nationa
Guard who have been already recon
mended for commissions in the Off.
GERS reserve corps or for examina
tion will be allowed to attend the
training camp for officers to open al
Fort Myer on May IA, according &c
the War Department today. The
others, unless recommended by their
company and regimentaI command
ers before that date, have no chance
for Commissions until the next
camp is established.
This announcement was made by
Capt. Maryland Craig, of the officers
reserve division of the War Depart
ment. following a formal statement
by the War Department that mem.
bers of the National Guard, whether
in Federal service or not, who have
been approved for appointments in
the officers reserve corps will be dis
charged in order to enable them to
accept such appointment, and go into

May Appeal for Justice.
Any guardsman who thinks he is
being Disseminated against may ap-
peal to the War Department. II his
charges are sustained. the discrim-
mating officer or officers. according
20 Captain Craig, will be kicked out
OF the service"
The requirement that prospective
officers who have passed the neces-
sary examinations. and have been
awaiting commissions shall neverthe-
less attend the training camp was
made, Captain Craig said, as a result
of recent experiences with graduates
of West Point
No matter what a mans knowl-
edge OF military matters may be. we
have found he needs practical expert
ence," Captain Craig said He has
to be trained specifically in the prac-
tlcal duties OF an officer"
AS result Of the new decision more
than 100 local men. all Of whom have
passed the reserve officers examination
and many Of whom have had practical
experience on the Mexican border will
have TO attend the training
schools for the required three months
period.
Must File BY May is.
No provision is yet made. however. ac-
cording to Captain Craig. for members
Of the local guard who have intended
seeking reserve commissions. but who
either have not yet fled application for
to the camp. or whose appli-
cations have not yet been acted on by
the War Department.
That Is up to their superior officers"
said Captain Craig. THE only require
ment is that recommendations be made
before May IS. the date the camps open
Any applications made after that date
will have to hang fire. as it were, for
three months.
After that. new reserve training

The visit to the home Of George

devoid OF ceremony. With regents
and vice regents Of the Daughters OF
the American Revolution as guides.
the French and British officers ana
statesmen were taken through the
rooms OF the home in which Wash.
ington lived.
One OF the relics on exhibition is
the key OF the Bastille. This key
was q gift from the Marquis de La
fayette to George Washington in 100.
Before the case which holds the
key Marshal Joffre stood 4 long time.
Perhaps he was reading the closing
lines OF the letter which accompanied
the key to General Washington:
That the principles of America
opened the door to the Bastille is not
to be doubted. Therefore, this comes
to the right place"
Interested, courteous, Mr.. Balfour
paid his second visit to the Washing
ton residence. Once before while in
America he had made a visit to the
historic mansion.
Col. Harrison H. Dodge, custodian
of the grounds, was at his elbow

lucky photographer succeeded in
grouping all the visitors. He took a
photograph.
