Serve your country at the same

CURTAILINC OF
SALE HOURS OF
LIQUOR PLANNED

Hartford, Jan. 10-The Committee
on Fuel Conservation of the Con-
necticut State Council of Defense has
launched a movement to persuade the
rest of the state to follow the ex-
ample set by Hartford last Monday
in shortening by five hours the hours
of business of all places where liquor
is sold. The committee is sending
out letters to all the local fuel ad-
illustrators in Connecticut telling OF
the voluntary action taken by the
Hartford liquor dealers and urging
them to persuade liquor dealers in
their towns and cities to take similar
action. The Hartford dealers now
open their doors at a. m. and close
at 10 p. m.
Reference is made also to a plan
to have all the amusement houses in
the state close their doors at 10
o'clock every evening with the double
object Of bringing about a saving in
the coal the houses use and of fore
ing people generally to go nome, put
out their lights, bank their fires and
go to bed early as part of their con-
triubution to the fuel conservation
campaign. The letter follows:
THE enclosed newspaper clipping
will tell you of one of the results OBJ
tanned here in Hartford in response
to our appeal of last week and this
makes it much more incumbent upon
the State Fuel Administration,
through you it's local representative,
to see that similar action is taken
throughout the state. While this ac-
ton was wholly voluntary on the
part of the local liquor dealers, it
may be necessary for you to make
it clear to those in your town or
city that in these times of self-sacri-
fee the whole weight of public senti-
ment and power of administration
lies back of this wise and necessary
conservation measure. We believe
that your local dealers can be made
to see this and that voluntary action
on their part is surely better than
cmpulsory action.
1--WE put this matter up to you tc
accomplish results and await to heal
from you of your success.

| tary action from the amusement
houses toward statewide closing a

Within ten minutes after an appi-
cation of Danderine you can not find
a single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch, but
what will please you most will be after
a few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
a little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy. Just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy
and wavy, and have an appearance
of abundance; an incompatible lustre,
softness and Iuxuriance.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's al-you
surely can have beautiful hair and
