COcOdnut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

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 alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful Just plain mulsified
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 wat
er and rub it in. one or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather. and cleanses the
hair ana scalp thoroly. The lather
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 mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap and few ounces Is enough to
last everyone in the family for months

In recognizing the seriousness Of
the world shortage OF foods and feeds,
the state Council OF Defense urges
citizens TO Cooperate IN production
and conservation. Farmers are urged
TO follow wheat and oat crops with
late paintings Of forage crops, turnips,
etc. They are urged to keep on the
farm all breeding sows and cows, all
heifers and poultry.
"Wastage Of foods, feeds and fuel
at this time Of world need is a crime
and should be stopped Immediately" {"
states one resolution. Farmers are
requested to conserve everything pos
sible. Farmers wives and others are
asked TO can and dry the greatest pos
slble amount Of fruits and vegetables
80 that the state may have an ample
supply for its own citizens and some
thing 10 spare"
The council recognizes the fact that
transportation will probably become
serious problem. Toward the end
OF keeping more freight cars in mo-
tion railroad officials are asked to CO.
operate in loading and unloading
company material more speedily.
shippers are requested, as patriotic
move. to use all possible promutness
in loading and unloading cars, not to
bunch their shipments, but order as
things are needed. and 10 aid in an ef-
fort TO have all cars loaded to ca
pacity
Money l. Needed
Due 10 the fact that all members Of
the board are donating their services
and even paying their own personal
expenses, they are asking that patri-
ctic citizens Of the state send in dona-
tiOns TO pay for stenographic help
etc. in order that the work Of CO.
ordinating the industries of the state
may be carried on effectively to meet
the war emergency. Checks should
be sent TO J. NJ. Aydelotte. chairman.

LOeM'a CoIumbIn.

The new Mary Pickford hlm play,
''The Little American" will begin an
entire weeks showing next Sunday
afternoon at Loew's Columbia The
alter. 1t ives disclosed last Sunday
at private exhibition arranged for
Washington officials and representa-
tives Of the Washington newspapers.
The photopiay sets forth the story of
the European conflict, but, unlike its
predecessors, deals with the intimate
phases of war and not its general as
poets. Miss Pickford is pictured IN
the role Of q Washington girl who is
loved by q hyphenated American and
a French nobleman. both accredited
representatives to Washington en-
bassies. After the outbreak of the
war she sails to Join an aunt who lives
in France and is blown UP by a sub
marine. The scene of destruction g
presented with an attention to de-
tail that makes it one of the most i'm
pressive episodes in the camera story
The continuation of the romance is
laid in a French chateau and deals in
timately with phases OF Prussianism
that provide eloquent argument for
Americas unstinted participation in
the world struggle to stihe German
friEhtfulness. The story holds the
bTeathless interest OF the audience 10

when the breadwinners OF Amer
lea go to the front to protect our
country, the women who are left be-
hind must bear the double burden of
providing for the family and bring
ing up the children in a wholesome
home atmosphere. Thus by MOBILIZE
ing an army and Withdrawing the
source OF the family income, we are
greatly enhancing the responsibilities
of each woman IN the soldiers fam

preparation OF 100000. The bill ap-
plies to all enlisted men, whether OF
