 Paris Aug. 22-1 p. m.-From the heights of Le Plemont on the Disc front the French troops now are watching the Germans in their retreat toward the north.
 The capture of Lassigny, an official communication issued this afternoon says, made the position on Le Ple- mont untenable as it was turned from the north and Gen. Humbert's army last night took the position, writing one of the most glorious pages in French history.
 It was on this position. the state ment adds that the furious German onslaught against Paris on March 80 was smashed, one French battalion holding the position for 36 hours against the desperate assaults of two German regiments.
 Le Plemont was finally taken on June by the Germans. It has been recaptured now by the former divis- ion of Gen. Fayolles which forms part of the troops that defended it on March 30.

COcOanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

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 CO.
coanut oil (Which is pure and entirely
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 water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out eas-
lily, and removes every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive OIL The
mai. DRIES quickly and evenly, and j.
leaves it fine and silky, bright, f..fy
and easy to manage.
You an get mulsh.ed coco1nut oily at
most any drug store. It is very cheap
and a few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.

AMUSE M ENTS
At the Strand.

"The Thing We Love- patriotic
photo play featuring Wallace Reid and
Kathlyn Williams, is the current offer
ing at the Strand. 1t is a rather fam
iliar story of the exposure of German
methods Of plotting and intrigue, dur
ing the days just prior to. and follow
ing, the entrance of the United States
into the great world war. Much OF
the plot has already been seen in pre-
vious pictures OF a similar character.
and yet, The Thing We Love-" tells
a good story that is developed in
natural and interesting manner The
play has some strong emotional mo-
ments and dramatic situations that are
extremely we'll done.
The acting is rather above the av-
erase. Wallace Reid as Rodney Sheri-
dan, the hero of the story, gives fine
characterization of the modern bust
ness man. Kathlyn Williams who por-
trays the part of Margaret KenYood,
his sweetheart, and the heroine, is
admirable. Her acting is natural,
graceful and without affectation. The
cast. which is an excellent one, gives
splendid support.
THE Matinee Girl" another of the
series of James MONTGOMERY Flag S
Girls You Know and an interesting
Pathe feature showing the making OF
linoleum, are shown.

Garden Campaign on in Earnest.

The campaign for vacant lots is on
in earnest. Only few of the wealthy
lot. owners are demanding excessive
rent. A fair price is from 81 to SO per
lot. depending on quality and size.
Many are doing their bit by donating
their lots. We have arranged for good,
well rotted manure from Is cents to 81
per load. We are hoping that it will
not be necessary to take possession
Of any lots that are neglected and have
q big weef tax assessed against them,
which will be our duty If the lot is rot
cultivated and planted.
Potatoes, beans. onions. corn peas.
