back to home and mother for the
period of the war. 1t is awfully
nice to have them here, and their
friends are nenewing acquaintance
enthusiastically. and in many in
stances making friends with their
adorable blond babies.
There is pretty little Doris Moore
or rather Mrs. Richard Booth
who is as much like a little Dres-
den figurine as ever. Though she
was married before she was well
out, she and her little chocolate
pom" which took all sorts of
prizes at the local shows, were
very well know in Washington's
Her husband is in the service. and
she Is being made much of-as she
always was. by her parents and her
girl friends, many of whom are in
the same case with herself.
There is Mrs. Harrison Brand. jr.-
Helen McCumber, that was. She was
bride about the time that America
entered the war. Now she is back
with her parents. and Senator Nc
Cumber is telling such of his col
leagues as will listen about his eX-
ceedingly clever grandson-nearly
two months old. and already showing
unmis taxable signs OF genius, while
Major Brand is stationed at Camp
Lee expecting his sailing orders.

A Shampoo Worth Trying

1t Is not necessary to shampoo your
hair SO frequently IL it is entirely and
properly cleansed each time by the
use of really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest driving
shampoo that we can recommend tn
our readers is one that brings out all
the natural beauty OF the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little expense,
by dissolving a teaspoonfuI of Can
throx, which can be obtained from
any druggists, in a cup of hot water.
This makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid, enough so 1t is easy to apply
1t to all the hair instead of lust to
the top of the head. This. when
rubbed into the scalp and onto every
strand of hair, chemically dissolyes
all impurities. 1t is very soothing
and cooling in its action, as well as
beneficial to both scalp and hair.
After rinsing out the lather so
created. you will find the scaIp ia
fresh, clean and free from dandrufY
while the hair dries quickly and
evenly. developing a bright luster and
a soft fluffiness that makes II seem
very heavy.-Adv.

terday at Halcyon House to help the
war gardens. Both affairs were real
treats. Also let's go down to the
Hut-the Billy Sunday Tabernacle of
last February, which the Y. N. c. A.
has taken over for its war work and
which last week was the scene OF
the great Red Cross mass meetings
at which all sorts of operate stars
have sung. For the week was given
over to celebrating the prowess OF
Italy, and the third anniversary of
her entry into the war, and to the
great Red Cross drive.
The concert seems almost the most
wonderful of all the splendid war
benefits that Washington has en-
joyed this winter. II was arranged
by Mrs. Henry Dimock and Mrs.
Lawrence Townsend. Arranging mu-
sicales is Mrs. Townsend's long suit.
She is a most talented musician and
composer, herself, and I have more
than once heard persons who spoke
with unquestioned authority regret
her being born into a social and finan-
ciaI position which precluded her
making a profession of her. music.
She has been instrumental in getting
together most of the great artists
who have helped to make the Red
Cross mass meetings real affairs. Aid
ed by Charles Colfax Long, Mrs.
Townsend by different methods per-
suaded one after another to come ia
Washington to aid in raising funds
for that worthiest of worthy causes
She had several Of the artists as her
house guests and entertained for
most OF them.
Mrs. Dimock has been knee-deep In
war work all winter: again and again
she has loaned her house for one

fences. in show windows. on PEN
nants, hotel walls, or automobiles;
wherever there Is space for them.
Red Cross buttons are the favorite
emblem Of the hour. The Red Cross
dfive is monopolizing every minute
OF almost everyone's time and shows
no partiality for ages. Children as
wen as grown-ups have given every
spare minute to raising funds and
society has neglected almost every
thing for this good cause. Various
are the methods for helping our boys
and with each new drive enthusiasm
grows. No better way to help, OF
course, can be found than being al
lowed to provide means for the Won
derful work being done by our great
Red Cross organization.
II has been a year Of benefits. Al
most every sort of an entertainment
imaginable and every method that
could be possibly thought of has been
employed during the last year to raise
funds for relief work of several sorts,
both foreign and domestic. but I
think last week took the cake" for
the large number Of benefits included
within the past six days. Every day
there was at least one large gather
ing to raise funds for something. and
many days. several. not including the
tea parties on the Speedway during
the Marine Band concerts on Wednes-
days and Saturday afternoon, as they
are settled institutions now.
The two most brilliant evepts were
