DISCUSSES QUESTION

Mrs. Albert Robin, president of the

discussing suffrage today said:
Precedent and prejudice having
been forcibly broken through by the
catastrophe In Europe a new light has
dawnkd on human relations. The key
note Of the hour Is justice and equal
ityjas can be expressed only In pure
democracy.
while we have participated glori-
ously In democratizing Europe, the alb
sence Of the direct contact Of the shock
has left our march OF progress TO the
steady pace Of evolution. And now we
are aiming In every way to clear the
debris of the past, so that by intelll-
gent cooperation, progress may be
hastened
"The participation of women In our
government Is a great need. In the
words Of President Wilson, we stlll
need women In our vision Of affairs, as
we have never needed them before-the
sympathy and insight and clear moral
instinct of the women OF the world
The President. In his last message to
Congress before sailing, urged the Sem
ate to pass the amendment TO the Con-
situation giving suffrage to women
and there can be little doubt that the
Susan b. Anthony Amendment Will pass
this session Of Congress.
"Ip order to become law, the amend
ment, when adopted, must be ratified
by the Legislatures of three-fOurths az
the States. Our Legislature meets In
January, and the Delaware Equal Suf-
frege Association is preparing TO go be-

HAULING FREIGHT BY TRUCK AND TRAILER

Motor truck and trailers should be called upon to do all the short hauling wherever roads are passable and let the railroads concentrate on the long distance hauls. Short hauls are not profitable for railroads and tie up g. great deal of equipment which could at this time be used to better advantage. In short hauls q long train of cars must stop ire quently, lose time and block the tracks dropping one or two cars here and there to meet the short haul demand.
 Motor trucks and trailers can do this work and free the railroad to a great extent. The modern truck with properly constructed trailer can carry an almost unbelievable load on any fairly good road and the cost of this method of transportation is small in comparison with short haul freight.
 A short haul embargo would mean a great saving in demurrage. Rail roads have not cars enough to carry the freight of the country, and present industries built up slowly through long years and of the highest value to the nation are threatened with destruction because the railroads cannot take care of the government work and at the same time supply these indus tries by providing for their incoming and outgoing freight. ......
 If those confronted with hauling problem could but realize the value of q truck and trailer combination, it would do more towards eliminat- ing freight congestion than any move ment which might be put on foot to accomplish this same end.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and lux-. uriant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair Just a few applications will prove revelation if your hair is fading, gray or dry. scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, cost ing about 50 cents a large bottle at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" thus avoid ing lot of muss.
 While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youth ful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another appli- cation or two, your hair becomes beau- tifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant Adv

ciated Press. Difficulty in bringing

tered roads brought a comparative
lull on the French sector today. In
fantry activity was confined to local
engagements. The enemy lis now
reinforcing his old line which he
held from 1914 to 1917, and it will
require heavier armament to batter
a way through. The Germans have
attempted several counter attacks
but they were without marked vigor
and, gained no success.
1t is believed that the stand the
Germans are preparing to take in
! their old trenches is likely to prove
, only a temporary expedient to obtain
time in which to move back the i'm
mense stores of material and to or
ganize retirement of the artillery
and infantry.
There is a great activity within the
German lines asst of Roye and
Chaulnes. All the roads are en-
numbered with wagon trains. indi-
eating the enemy is still moving out
the ammunition and supplies gather
ed in that region.
The latest prisoners taken say
that they belong to the rear guard
whose mission is to delay the adj
vance Of the French and facilitate
the retirement Of the main force with
the supplies and big guns.
