BULGARIA NOW
 TALKING PEACE

Athens, Wednesday, Aug. 7.-Bul- garia is engaged in a peace offen- sive synchronizng with the German movement in the same direction, ac- cording to Alexander Carapanos, for mer minister of foreign affairs. She is playing particularly on the friend ly sentiment existent, at least in part in Great Britain and the United States, he asserts.
 "The rumors of possible about face on the part of Bulgaria have been confirmed by our minister Of agriculture, who has returned from London, who went there on a special mission" declares M. Carapanos in an interview printed in the Messenger of this city. Bulgaria is employing her old method of blackmailing her allies in order to obtain the largest possible sections of the territories of her neighbors, and is exploiting the

Careless Use of
 Soap Spells the Halr

Soap should be used very carefully, if you want to keep your hair looking its best Most soaps and prepared sham. poos contain too much alkali This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle and ruins it.
 The best thing for steady use is jus, ordinary mulsihed ,coeoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or any, thing else you can use.
 One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy father, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandrutf and excessive oil. The .hait dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft. and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to manage.
 You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil at any pharmacy. it's very cheap. and 2 few ounces will supply every member of the family for months.

 10.-To France, England, Belgium, Italy, Rumania and Serbia I leave each one of them one of my lazy beer-soaked simp sons, as token of remembrance. As for myself Uncle Sam will give me beautiful finish as quick as they get me.
 11.-One of my last hopes is that l ami not captured by the U. s. Sam mics: they all want to get a souvenir of me and I would be scattered to the four winds of the earth.

LAW ENFORCEMENT

The city is being accused of fail ing to enforce many minor laws. The mayor says the police force is as large as the city can afford. He offers to issue commissions to private citizens, men and women, to serve without pay in an effort to secure better obser- vance of various measures pertaining to the health, welfare and comfort of the people.
 There is no restriction now upon citizens helping to enforce the laws. If they see an autoist speeding they can report it. If they see a mans premises in unsanitary condition they report that. The police rarely fail to follow up complaints.
 It is any citizens business to assist in maintaining law and order. It re- verts back to the old theory that. what is everybody's business is nobcdy's business. And, too, some people who see the mote in the other mans eye Is conscious that, he, himself, migh\ be overlooking small beam in his own vision.
 None of us strive enough to abide by many minor regulations. There fore we hesitate because some other man ignores minor measure. Many of us follow the example of others If MT. So-and-So doesn't put dinners on his auto, as city ordinance pro- vides, why should we have to do it. O, if another MT. So-and-So doesn't cut the weeds in front of his house we don't feel that we should have to.
 If each of us observed the law g half dozen policemen would be suffi cient.

and edit the copy. Very likely some member of the draft board has be- come "sore" at some reporter, and being a mere man and subject to pre- iudices and anger he seeks to assert an authority not given him by the provost marshal general or the draft law. As yet newspapers have not been placed on the mon essential" list by Secretary Baker or General CroWder.
 Newspapers were never more essen- tial than now. They do more to fan the flames of home fires than any other agency. They form the mega phone of the administration for in- structions and appeals and advice to the people of the nation.
 Editors, reporters and printers who arc in the draft age and who have no other grounds for deferred classifca ten have been drafted, are being drafted and should be drafted. There are as many newspaper men in the army, comparatively, as men of any other profession. 4 great many more will be.
