 Seriously, this condition in Pine Bluff is a reflection not on the city or the city officials but upon the pro- perty owners and the resident who To sides, or transacts business in these localities
 Tn addition to marring the civic ap- pearanee of the city much of this rub oisl IS dangerous. not only to life and city. It also adds to the fire risk, property, but to the health of the publls and danger in winter

Nobody Can Tell When You Dark. en Gray, Faded Hair With
 Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beau- tifully darkened glossy and attract i've with brew of Sage Tea and Sul- phur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this old time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore na- tural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound now because 1t darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applies its so easy to use, too You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks, glossy

DAILY PRAYERS FOR VICTORY

Monday Prayers for Victory is an observance already in force In many places. The Senate in July "re- solved" to ask President Wilson to issue proclamation requesting all Americans to unite in monday prayer for the victorious end of the war.
 This observance was taken up Ill Pine Bluff shortly after the Nation al Rotary Club meeting. However, since the inauguration of this custom the observance of it has not been lax, but practically nil.
 Out of twelve or more retail stores including several business offices vls- tied by a member of the Graphic's editorial department Monday at eleven o'clock and on previous occos- ions only one large establishment was found to be observing the custom. Business as usuaP' prevailed at II o'clock, 11:O1 ,2-3-4 and 5 minutes past the hour.
 This is not consistent with the pa triotism and loyalty of the Pine Bluff citizens. Let the resolution show in every business house, insti- tuition and home of Pine Bluff for five minutes following the blowing of the whistle.
 The following prayer by every citi- zen of Pine Bluff should be said at this hour or similar prayers from day to day:
 Give courage and wisdom to those who bear command of our Army and cur Navy. Grant to us and to our Allies, if it be Thy will, victory and success
 "At many of the services at St. PauPs following the ringing of the chimes, the chapel is crowded by men and women of all races and creeds, who have heard the midday Angelus echo among the sky-scrapers. The Rev. Dr. Greer, the vicar in charge, who since the beginning of the war has been active in war-wark. caused to be printed cards bearing form of prayer which is offered at these ser vices. Many thousands of the cards have already been distributed. The form of this petition for daily use is as follows:
 Prosper, o Lord. the forces of our country and of our Allies. Bless our soldiers and sailors, their wives ana children, their fathers and moth CTS, their brothers and sisters; bless all who are dear to them, and all who labor on their behalf; through Christ, our Lord. Amen. !"

BY j. w. T. MASON.
United Press War Expert.

New York. April %. - American
troops have fought at ~Seicheprey their
first real battle Of the war, n have
come through the engagement with
victory.
All previous attacks by the Germans
against the American positions In
eastern France have been raids or re-
ing information for Won Hindenburg.
The assault this week end at Seiche-
prey, however, was not Of this charac-
ter. 1t shows every evidence Of having
been an attempt by Hindenburg to
seize permanently the village held by
the Americans, n to improve the Ger
mar positions opposite that part OF
General Pershing's line.
Failure to accomplish this purpose
was complete. The official Berlin re-
port that the Germans destroyed
enemy works" in the American POSI-
lions is unimportant, in view OF the
fact that the Germans were forced back
to their own lines. The purpose OF
Hindenburg to consolidate the Ameri-
can held sector with the German front
is sufficiently indicated by the action
Of the Germans in remaining overnight
in the American positions they had
temporarily occupied.
Retirement Strategic.
1t is apparent that the Americans
made q strategic retirement before the
initial rush Of the Germans, either be-
cause the German force was largely
superior in numbers, OF a a Ger
man barrage fire gave indications of
cutting off the Americans.
The counter attack OF Pershing's
fighters demonstrates conclusively
that the original retirement, however,
was well devised and succeeded in its
purpose Of conserving the American
forces for a more favorable assault.
The German claim Of 1873 Americans
being captured may be true. The
Americans very probably would be re-
luctant to obey orders to fall back In
their first encounter with the enemy.
Hesitancy on the part OF an advanced
unit to retire may well have caused
its isolation by barrage fire n its
necessary capitulation. Americans
have a certain quality of recklessness
which may cause occasional mistakes
like this but which in the end means
victory,
