Newsdealers' Fight on Hearst
Indorsed by Glaziers' Union

Glaziers' Local No. 1887, Brother
hood of Decorators of America, last
night adopted resolutions indorsing
the strike of the newsboys against the
Hearst publications and calling upon
organized labor wherever found to
support the venders in their struggle.
The action of the union was unanimous
and followed the presentation of the
boys case by Andrew Stanton, presi-
dent of the Newsboys' Union.
Mr.. Stanton told of the difficulty
the newsboys had experienced in sell
ing Hearst papers because of popular
resentment Of their attitude toward the
war and the attempts of the Hearst
organization to compel them to buy
Hearst papers whether they could sell
them or not.
Following Mr. Stanton's statement.
Joseph Hermann, business agent of
the union, presented these resolutions:

of New York have been endeavoring

CAMP DIX, N. j., Oct. 13.-Hearst
newspapers are virtually taboo in
this camp as a result of intense senti-
ment inspired by the publishers un-
American attitude.
Although the papers have not yet been
officially banned by military order,
the fifteen camp exchanges, which are
conducted under the direct super
vision of Captain L. F. Sineath, refuse
to receive them.
Demands that Hearst newspapers be
officially barred from the camp have
been made by several battalion COM
manders and other officers. When these
protests against the admission of "The
New York American" and "The Evening
Journal" did not bring the desired re-
suits the soldiers in charge of the camp
exchanges took the issue into their own
hands and refused to handle the papers.
This action was taken after Captain
Sineath took charge of newspaper dis
tribution at the cantonment, on Octo-
ber l. Formerly New York newspapers
were delivered at the canteen by news
dealers. Under this system Hearst

In addition to Hearst's un-American-

ance against him. They declare that

his men obtain affidavits swearing that
certain officers had made false accusa-

sent these affdavits to headquarters. it

 stars Mary Pickford. The combinations
 of Mr. Hughes and Miss Pickford
 proves a winner and this is certainly
 one of the best pictures that this little
 artist has presented as yet. The story
 is of the type which Miss Fickford does so well. It tells of little Johanna
 Ransaller of the Ransaller farm i'll New England, who has never known anything but drudgery of the house. hold and big family all of her young life. She longs for a "beau" but IS so horribly plain she hasn't even this. But when whole regiment of soldiers and their officers camp on the Ransel- lar farm for two weeks things took a change for Johanna. She becomes the most popular girl in the world, it seems and she has more admirers and "beaus' than she knows what to do with. Miss .Pickord has three leading men of equal importance in this Emory Johnson, Monte Blue and Dou- glas Mclean, Every detail is perfect, as they always are in Pickford pie lures. and never has Mary appeared to better advantage.

 As Jen the daughter of tavern keeper on the Canadian-American bor- der, who sells whiskey to Indians. despite the excise law, Miss Ferguson has role of the deepest dramatic in- terest. Her brother. Val, stays Gray Cloud, an Indian chief, who has made an insulting proposal to him regard ing Jen. The mounted police are noti- fled of the murder and strenuous pursuit is at once begun. Sergeant Tom Gellantly, who loves Jen, re- ceives orders to go to Archangel Post and there seek to capture the fleeing assassin. He stops aS Galbraith's place and announces to Galbraith that he has sealed orders and is on his way to capture the murderer, of whose identity he is, of course, unaware.

Jen, who loves the sergeant, seeks in vain to revive him. and, learning that he has secret orders to deliver to the mounted police at Archangel Post, she takes the packet from his pocket, dons his hat and coat and rides for the post. On her return that night the sergeant is still unconscious, and, unable to arouse him, Jen becomes anxious. She then learns to her horror of the trick played upon him by her father and Pierre, and of the part she has played to bring about the arrest of her broth CT. Tom is at last aroused, and when he searches for his papers Jen tells Nhim that she delivered them to the c&mmandant at Rise Post.

FOR COLDS AND GRIPPE
 FOLLOW DOCTORS ADVICE

Ask any physician or druggist and he will tell you that the first step in the treatment of cold, cough, in- fluenza or grippe should invariably be "a brisk calomel purgative, pre- ferably the nausealess calomel. called Calotabs." This alone is often suffi- cient to break up severe cold over night, or cut short an attack of grippe and possibly prevent pneumonia.
 One Calotab on the tongue at bed time with swallow of water-that's all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight est interference with your eating, pleasures or work. Next morning your cold has vanished and your entire sys- tenn is purified and refreshed. Calo- tabs are sold only in original sealed packages; price thirty-fve cents. Recommended and guaranteed by druggists everywhere. Price refunded if you 'are not ighted.-Adv.

Don't Let Soap
 Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is just plain nul- sifed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or any thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last tie whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy father, cleanses thor oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust. dirt ard dandruff.
