board with respect to lum Der. Rob
ert Allen, secretary-manager Of the
West Coast Lumber Mems associa-

Urges Investigation.
So serious is the situation in
which the lumber industry has been
placed that "a senate Investigation
is justified" Allen told Sen. Cham
berlain. The complaint OF the lum-
bermen grows out OF the ruling Of
the priorities committee that lum-
Der for the construction of canton
ments, etc, must come from the
neighborhood of building operation
regardless of rs cost.
Documents presented by Allen to
Sen. Chamberlain show that only
90 per cent of all spruce and fir out
on the Pacific coast meets the rigid
specifications for aircraft and ship
building materials. The remaining
so per cent of low grade or side
cut" lumber cannot be moved be-
cause of the ruling OF the priorities
committee.

HENDLEY-KASPAR MUSIC
PUPILS GIVE RECITAL

Just a few OF the things done by
the small children OF the Hendley-
Raspar School OF Musical Education,
at their recital and practical demon
stratIon OF their principles OF music
education at the willard yesterday
afternoon, illustrates the innovations
this school has introduced into music
study.
The piano recital by students ind
faculty. the violin ensemble, and the
illustrations OF rhythm through
classic dancing, also proved how firm
a foundation Is being created, for the
music and its interpretations were
both Of the highest standard
The tiny tots gave astonishing ex-
amples OF reading notes at sight,
naming intervals and chords as well
as the keys to which they belonged
and through various games showing
a delight AM acquaintance with the
basis OF music that many an older
musician might envy. Original com
positions OF individuality were played
and two compositions OF the classics
were transposed in any key called for.
The playing OF these illustrations
were always musical and well exc
cuted.
Henry Kaspar, musical director and
teacher OF the piano, played the
Grieg "Ballade." G minor. with broad
musicianShip, showing warmth, vital
color, imagination, and the technical
proficiency OF the concert artist. In
the playing OF Margaret Millham, an
embryo artist in her early teens

An Interview With Prof. Richard
Foss on the Scalp and Its
Treatment.

Professor, can hair be restored
and restored permanently" asked
the interviewer.
"Yes," replied Prof. Foss, "but
lonly by a scientific treatment of the
scalp and that treatment must be
administered by one who has studied
/ everything appertaining to it. II
must be one who has benefited b.
| years of experimentation in the lab
oratories Of masters who have
given a life study to this particular
science; a science that has been
shamefuuy deformed and misrepre-
sented by fakirs who advertise So
called hair restorers' to cure bald
ness"
Suppose l had a really good
hair restorer, could 1 get results
through my own application of ?"
"You could not" answered Prof.
Foss positively, because you must
first be treated by an expert who
thoroughly understands the pores
of the scalp and the hair follicles.
1t is physically impossible for any,
one properly either to massage their
scalp or apply to it a tonic. You
could not do this even though you
knew the correct movements of a
massage, which not one person in
ten thousand is acquainted with"
"Please understand" continued
the Professor, shat it is not the
hair, but the scalp that is the vital
point of attack. AS the soil must
be plowed and fortified for plant
ing, so first of all must the scalp be
made receptive to a treatment that
will produce hair. And that my
treatment will do"
Does it take very long, this
treatment of yours?"
"Ah! You Americans, always in
haste" remarked Prof. Foss. "That
is the reason why so many of you
are bald. In some cases / have pro-
duced results in two weeks; in
others it required as many months.
1t all depends on conditions"
"Do you remove dandruff?"
"My friend, do not consider me
discourteous if laugh. How could

professor, did you discover this
remedy Of yours in the United States
or in your native country, France?"

answered the Professor, "for the
training 1 received in French labo-
ratories, it was while in Egypt, !
where was spending a winter, that
I developed the idea which is now
embodied not ony in my hair re-
storer, but in the treatment that |
precedes the use of it. For this
must express my gratitude to a

able knowledge regarding the scalp
and hair"
"One last question, Prof. Foss:
Do you claim to cure baldness?"
81 will answer you in this fash /
ion," replied the Professor. years t.
ago l was talking with Jean de
Reszke, the famous singer, in his
studio in Paris about training the
voice and during the conversation
he said to me this: AS anyone who
has legs can be taught to walk, so
can anyone who has a voice be
taught to sing And / say to you,"
concluded the Professor, that any,
one who has a head can grow hair
on it, if the right treatment is en-
ployed."

TANKS INTO
 BATTLE NEAR FUTURE
Continued from page one.)
Foch Has a Plan.

There is no doubt among observ- CTS here that Marshal Foch has map ped out d plan from whcih he hopes to prevent the enemy from settling into his old lines and reyerting again to trench warfare.
 1t is argued that if the enemy at tempts to hold the Hindenburg line or sch of 1t as he can, he will have to mass reserves to do it.
 A new attack, far to the south and east of the present battle area would compel him also to rush reserves to that front and it is in such an at tack that many officials are confident that General Pershing's army will be employed.
 It is noted here that no effort has been made by Marshal Foch to extend the action to the front east of Rheims thus far.
 This Sector Quite.
 The sector between the place and Verdun has been quiet throughout the fierce fighting to the north.
 Many officers think an attack may be launched there with the object of turning the whole German line northward and that probably a si- multaneonsly attack would be deliv- cred beyond Verdun, where the ori- ginal sector lies, to complete this. con- ception of wider turning movement against the enemy positinns in nor- thern France.
 The St. Mihiel salient where the German lines thrust forward beyond Verdun on the west, might offer a chance for Foch's fayorite pincer tac- tics, some officers think.
 Americans to Strike Suddenly.
 There are indications that this front is held by Americans with the exception of the defenses of Verdun itself and the dimes southeast of that city.
 If General Pershing should strike suddenly toward Metz and meet with any success, 1t is thought the enemy might be forced to evacuate the whole at Mihiel band.
