CHARMING YOUNG LADIES
 AT VACATION HOUSE

Since the opening of the Vacation House at Norwich Town July 1st. up- wards of twenty five young ladies have passed brief vacations there. These young ladies have won golden opinions from those who have met them. They are deeply interested in the history of Norwich and their coming here, in their charmbing per sonality and refinement, is regarded as a distinct advantage to the city.
 Some of the young ladies have fine positions in such big publishing houses as Harper & Brothers, Funk and Wagnalls and McClues's. Ger tain of the girls are from such lead ing drygoods houses as Wannamak- CTS, Hearn's and Bests. Some are York banks.
 All are members of the Girls Club and Alteration Society of the Convent of Marie Reparatrice, No. IA East 29th street, New York. They are pledged to daily communion when possible, and to a certain length of time each week in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Bands Of these young ladies have spent part of ev- cry Sunday afternoon since August, 1916, in praying for the close of the war and for the souls of the dead and dying soldiers.
 The charming young visitors have received many gracious attentions and much kindness from those people of Norwich who have met them and have been impressed by their attrac- tive personality and appreciation of the Vacation House which has been provided to give them a happy sum mer outing, in charge of Mrs. Ger trude Halle Lanman. Young ladies will continue to come and go during September

Cocoanut 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 aIkah This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Just plain mulsif1ed coceanut oil (which is pure and en- tirefy greaseHess). 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 water and rub it in. One of two teaspAoT, fuls will make an abundance of hjch, creamy father. and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly, The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandrtln and ex- cessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky bright, fltiffy and easy to manage. You can get nulsifed cocoanut oiI at most any drug store It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough ts last everyone in the family for months

COUNTY PLEDGES TO
 CAN t55,o0o QUARTS

Early but incomplete reports to the food committee of the state council of defense indicate that Connecticut will measure up to her full quota of 5,G00,0 900 quarts of canned fruit and vegetables. It is perhaps not surpris- ing that in general smaller communi- ties are running far over their quotas, while the larger cities in some cases are falling short of their allotment. Many housewives are so conscientious that they are ultra conservative in registering their pledge; that is, they are signing up for only a half to three fourths of what they are act uaIly planning to can.
 The. Danbury section of Fairfield county reports that $500 cards have been signed, pledging a total & 167, OG0 quarts. In New Haven county 4,0oO cards have been signed and.
