THE MASKED HOSTESS. Who is Sss,
Rush to Register
Here as Closing
Hour Draws Near

Out Of an estimated total Of 2,s0O,OOO
to 100000 persons in greater New
York subject to registration for III,
state military census about 100000
had registered when the census sta.
tions closed last night, according 70
h. p. Goodrich, director OF the census
in this city Mr.. Goodrich estimated
that fully 250.000 had registered dur.
ing the day throughout the city.
Mr.. Goodrich said IL was possible 70
register the remaining persons between
now and Monday night, when the regis
tration closes. but that every station in
the city would have TO work a. full ca.
pacity TO accomplish the work Yes
terday Mr.. Goodrich added 5000 clerks
TO his force OF these, 1000 will be
engaged in the Brooklyn stations. In
all $4,000 clerks will be employed from
now until Monday night.
viii Round Up Slackers
The census officials already have
made full arrangements with the po-
lice TO round up the registration slack
ers. At the census headquarters, 26l
Broadway, il was reported that in prsc-
tically every case where subpoena had
been served the man or woman sum-
moned had appeared for registration
before the expiration Of the time set
in the subpoena.
ave are having some trouble with
enemy aliens" one Of the census OF.
ficials said. zone man gave two df-
ferent names when he was registering
in one of the stations, and when his
attention was called TO the discrepancy
he fed. We discovered that he had
served i'm the Austrian army. Ansr-
chists and Socialists try to deceive u.s.
Queer Figures Shown
Reports from several Assembly dis.
tricts in New York City display odd
statistics. In the 9th District. which
has a total population Of 44,000 there
we're $4,000 persons registered. This
district embraces part of the uptown
shopping section, where hundreds Of
thousands pass daily. The 10th Assem-
bly, District has reported registration
of $1,000. which is more than 5000
beyond the population.
At the census headquarters last night
a statement was issued warning per-
sons against calling there with view
Of obtaining salaried positions during
the remainder Of the reeistratica
period. No salaries have been paid 70
any one employed in the work, and
none will be paid.
Captain George Carr Henry, director
Of the state military census, issued a
statement yesterday warning all those
who failed 70 obey the registration law
that they would be dealt with severely.
He announced that the state census
showed large percentage or men who
volunteered 10 serve the country IN
some military capacity.

Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp AMI
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for it 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 fam
lily for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. about teaspoonful IS
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft. fresh looking
bright. fluffy. wavy and easy to ham
die Besides. it Ioosens and takes out
every particle of dust, dirt and dand-
uff.-Advertisement.
