MORE HAIR! GIRLS
How to make It so Fascinating and
Delightfully."- Lustrous that 1t will
add to your Beauty.

When your hair becomes faded, dry,
streaked and scraggly, when it falls out
badly and new hair cannot grow, the
roots must be vitalized and properly
nourished. To do this quickly, safely
and at little expense, there is nothing so
effective as Partisan sage Liquid FORM
which you can get at Wilfred F. Root s
or any druggist s.
It's guaranteed to abolish dandruff,
stop scalp itch and falling hair, and
promote n new growth or money re-
frhded. It's in great demand by dis
eliminating women because it makes
the hair so soft, fluffy, lustrous, easy to
arrange attractively, and appear heavier
than it really is.
A massage with Partisan Sage is a
real delight-easy to use, not sticky or
greasy, and delicately perfumed-an an
tiseptic liquid free from dangerous in
gradients, and guaranteed not to color
the hair or scalp. If you want good
looking hair and plenty of it use Pari-
sian Sage. Don I delay-begin tonight
"a little attention now insures beauti-
full hair for years to come.-Adv.

FORMER PASTOR COMMUNITY HEAD
 FOR BRIDGET ORT

c. F. Stimson of the Commission on Living Conditions, United States Department of Labor, formerly we'll known iii Bridgeport as pastor of the West End Congregational church, will attempt to raise a, National Com munity Service Commission in Bridge port.
 This was made public at last nights meeting of the Board of Alderman, after Alderman Alfred w. Burdick introduced a resolution giving an out line of the Community Service plans for this city.
 MT. Stimson has charge of the New England territory and is making a servey of conditions in this city.
 Bridgeport will be one of the 30 cities in the country and the only one in New England to have Com munity Service Commission. Its ob' ject will be to better living condi- tions of workers along recreational and educational lines, and the local commission will act in cooperation with the national organization. All appropriations necessary to carry on the work will come from the War Camp Community Service. This money is raised by popular subscrip- ton and all of the recreational en- terprises which will be the main ob- ject of the service will be under the direct jurisdiction of the Board of Recreation.
 Within a short time a commission will be appointed for Bridgeport apd this commission will continue to act for an indefinite period or at least until President Wilson's term of of flee expires. It is hoped, however, to make the organization free of poli- tics, and providing the men appoint ed give entire satisfaction, it is the desire of the sponsors of the organi- zation that they continue to serve.
 While plans for the Community service were made before the armis- tice was signed it is the intention of the government to go ahead with their work in peace times, and Bridgeport has in way been recognized as the city of New England that will con- tinue to be a center of industry in spite of the wars end.
 The Board of Aldermen unanimous ly duCpleu lll6 pldI1 1CoI lllS llI lOllOW ing the introduction of the resolution by Alderman Burdick. The Board of Recreation and Mayor Clifford B. Wilson has already placed the stamp of approval on the idea.
 Mayor Wilson addressed the board last night and told of Tecommenda- tions that he had made to the board and to the Board of Apportlonment and Taxation for funds to establish playgrounds, shower baths and recre- alton centers in Bridgeport. The may or told of the work of the United States Department of Iabcr along re- creational lines and asked that the common council give their full sup port to all matters pertaining to the successful operation of the commis- sion in this city.
 A list of names, out of which the commission for Bridgeport is to be ap- pointed will be decided on by the Board of Recreation and the City ot Bridgeport and sent to Washington within a short time.

SONG OF AN AUTUMN DAY.

I wander through the woodland way While the autumn sun hangs low, And the air has caught each golden ray
 To melt in a purple glow. Where ruby leaves swing to and fro In the wind through the dusky lane, And all around me, still and slow, Falls the red and the yellow rain. A carpet for my feet to tread Spreads out where'er I've strolled, The warp of green and brown and a red,
 The wool all glints of gold. linear the voice of a little stream Meath boughs that are dark. and
 strong, And it's eye of blue gives a laughing
 gleam
 As 1t babbles it's woodland song. The silv,ry gnats in circles swing, And dance in the shining way, A misty floating veil they fling Der the face of the dying day. The fields aglow with colors rare Breathe out their lives to the sun, Iris the summing up of all that's fair, And my heart beats @ rhythmic
 "Well donew And still I thread my way along. Where ling'ring sunbeams stray, To the plaintive notes of the sad
 sweet song,
 The song of an autumn day.

ATTRACTIVE BEDROOMS.

Both much of the comfort and at tractiveness of a bedroom depend upon the arrangement of the furni- ture. So much can be done to make a room look either larger or cosier by thoughtful artistic placing of the furnishings. Of course, in some bed rooms certain pieces of furniture must go to certain places because of the spacing of doors, windows or electric light fixtures. This is es- pecially necessary in very small rooms. Even then there is always ! best way to place the furniture-a way that makes both the room and the pieces show to best advantage, says the New York Herald.
 No room looks well with all the heavy pieces placed on one side. In a bedroom, therefore, it does not looh well usually to see a bureau, chif- fonier and bed all placed against the same side of the room. A balance in arranging heavy and light pieces of furniture is desirable for a good ef- feet.
 The bed, perhaps the most import ant piece of bedroom furniture, should have first consideration in ar ranging the furnishings. Most per sons want a bed placed where the light from windows will not strike directly in the eyes. On the other hand, the bed must be placed where the sleeper can have plenty of fresh air Also a position near a light that will permit night reading is liked by many. However, a bedside table with an electric lamp connected by 8 cord to a socket some distance away will solve this problem very nicely, and is a good arrangement, particu- Iarly if the bed is placed in a com fortable angle in regard to the win dows. No bed should be placed with one side close to a wall, for it does not give enough air and, besides, re- quires moving every time the bed is

TT HERE'S one color combination
 which always fascinates me and
 that Is navy blue and putty color. In the spring l love a dress of navy or collar of pongee-heavy rough Pongee in that wonderful putty tan.
 In the fall and winter one of the smartest combinations of materials will be found in navy tricotine or gaba-dine and putty-colored broadcloth. "One never tires of blue' is fashion adage. For blue is always becoming, in fact it's the universal color.
 To this day the manufacturers have never turned out anything better look ing or more durable than blue serge, or its offshoots, tricotine and gabardine.
 Combined with black charmeuse these fabrics are really stunning. Made up with touches of henra in a waistcoat or in embroidery, they re beautiful. but combined with putty tan these materials really look their best and are wonder fully smart. Many of the light top shoes carry just this putty shade in their uppers. and it can be repeated in mocha gloves.
 The hat worn with such a costume may be all black or carry touches of putty in a wool flower or bit of wool embroidery.
