sembled together-the sweaters in one
pile, surgical dressings in another and
socks in another. Then each gar
ment is inspected to see that it con-
forms to regulations. The surgical
dressings are inspected more infinitely
than any other article. Women, most
of them nurses trained in the work,
go over every gauze compress seek
ing for stray threads that the work
ers may have overlooked.
Finally the goods are repacked in
huge boxes, lined with waterproof
paper, nailed and bound with strips
of metal. A printed list, showing
what each box contains, is included
in the contents. The address of its
final destination, together with an an
nouncement of the contents is stem
cilled on the outside of the box. From
35 to 40 of these boxes are shipped
from the division headquarters daily.
During the rush of Christmas goods
for France the output was even
greater.
Frequently the inspectors discover
notes attached to the garments writ
ten by women who have made the
goods. Contrary to the popular be-
lief, it is extremely seldom that a
mash note," written by girl seek
ing to strike up a romantic cores
pondence with soldier, is foune.
More often the notes seem to be writ
ten by elderly women, women who
have sons, husbands and brothers in
the army. These messages are full
of encouragement and good cheer.
Occasionally the workers write thei1
messages in poetry, some good, some
not so good as to rhyme and meter
Often placards on the garments an
nounce that the knitters are men OF
women past 80 years old.

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you

about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp and
rub it in gently with the finger tips
Do this tonight. and by morning,

cations will completely dissolve. and
entirely destroy every single sign ana
trace of it. no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous. glossy. silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
