Don't Let Soap z
 Spoil Your Hair,

When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepar- ed shampoos contain too much aikali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best lining to use is just plain n1ulsiied cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with. water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that Is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy latT1er, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly. and is soft. fresh looking, bright. fury, wavy and easy to han dle- Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dand- ruff.

 We are celebrating. this week. the birthday of Washington. His life is a most excellent example of the cour- age that conquers.. He believed in God a time in those dark hours when liber- tv was stfuggIins for existence on these shores did the Father of his country go apart by himself and pour out his soul to God. And not only was Washington man of prayer. but a man of conviction. He was a patriot

 We need that Kind of patriotism to-
 day, and there ore indications that the spirit of Washing gton and the spirit Of Lincoln are still abroad in .our land and that in the serious problems that now confront us We will assert once more our faith in the iring God. every foe-the courage that recogniz- es God and pour. out its rich devo- ton to a great cause. the cause of hu rnanity and God.

SPOKE ON THE COURAGE THAT coNouERs
Interesting Topic at Central Baptist
 Church Sunday Evening"

The Courage that Conquers was the l subject of the sermon delivered at the Central Baptist church Sunday even l ink by the pastor. Rev. Joel B. Slocurn. D. D. Dr. Slocum's text was Mum. l3-30. In part he spoke as follows: The time had come in the progress of Gods ancient people through the will derness. when they began to long for ness life and a Beginning of their life i in the land which had been promised
 to them. They had become inured to many hardships and even to war fare and it was a fair supposition that
 they would be able to meet whatever emergency might confront them. But
 it would not be good Judgment to enter
 the land without proper reconnais-
 sance.
 | So twelve men. including Caleb, were
 chosen for the survey. Each of these
 men was a headman and each man
 represented tribe. They were all

 farther and farther away into a waste and bowling wilderness.
 The report of these spies would for eyer settle all mutinous feelings on the part of this impatient multitude. The people would at last learn that here is a land whose lovlfness and richness surpass all the glories of Egypt. So the spies went forth and they ap- pear to have made. perhaps by divid- ing into companies, an extensive sur yey of the entire land Then they re- turned with their report and also with some fruit In spite of the bfk bunch of grapes which they secured at Esci1ol the report. on the while was adverse. Caleb however, spoke up a minor report in tho words have chosen fo. the text.
 Taking this incident merely as a l background, let us look at some of the practical lessons that are suggested. l
 It is alf too natural that people | should forget in their wilderness journey, that there is promised land ahead. There are absorbing material | cares that blunt over sensitfveness to 1 spiritual things and we assume that 1 life is all gray and sterile and deso- l late and hopeless.

 Any trapshot breaking 90 out of 50 pairs has not been looked upon as an exceptional shot-but in this years champion no less than ten shooters broke 90 or more. That's the class that Platt was travelling in. Mark Arie broke 95 targets 999 times out of 1000 this score would have won.
 Patt's score was all the more remarkable in that he shot at 45 pairs one day and at 5 pairs the next. He broke S7 of the first 90 and nine in the last ten.
