Alkali in Soap
 Bad For the Hair

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 just ordinary n,ulsi6ed cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than the most expensive soap or any, thing else you can use.
 One or two teaspoonfu1s will cleanse the. hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply m!oisten 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. dandruif and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lastrous, fluffy and easy to manage
 You can get mujsi6ed cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and few ounces will supply every member of the family for months.

 Bf SPENT SOON
 FOR GOOD ROAD
Arkansas Louisiana High way Will Be of Asphalt for
 113 of 155 Miles.

Bids for constructing 155 miles of road, 113 to be of asphalt. and to ax- tend from the Jefferson county line through five southeast Arkansas coun- ties to the Louisiana state line, and which will be part of modern high way connecting Camp Pike, near Lit tie Rock, with Camp Beauregard. near Alexandria, La, are to be considered at meeting of the commissioners of the district at McGehee, Ark. Janu- ary 15. The road, which is designated as the Akansas-Louisiana highway, will begin near Grady, and go through Lincoln, Desha, Ashley. Chicot and Drew counties, connecting 29 good towns.
 The district, created by special act of the Arkansas legislature at the last session, contains 675,000 acres of rich land. and is said to be the largest road district in the United Stat es.
 Bonds of $2500.000 to secure funds for building the road will be issued, based on real property with an as sessed valuation of S10,670000, and with a market valuation estimated at $27.000,00O.
 Because of the military value of the road, war department engineers will recommend that permission be granted the district to secure gravel and sand from the Mississippi river for concrete work.
 The highway will parallel the right of way of the Missouri Pacific rail road most of the way, and connect on the north with the macadam and con crete bikes of Jefferson county.
 With the completion of this road. and a strip of six miles by Pulaski county, there will be continuous good road, travesrible in any kind of weather, from Camp Pike south to the Louisiana line.

Letters from the Front

Letter from Dell Mcguire, Co. 4
Depot Brigade, Camp Grant, Illinois
to The True Northerner:-
/ wish to thank you very much for
sending me The True Northerner each
week. / assure you l appreciate it
very highly. Would feel lost and "off
the earth" if it was not for the home
paper.
AS to army lifeS will say l am
liking it better every day. At first
things were little morotonous, but
now there is something doing every
minute and that is better for me as
I was never used to laying around
hours at time.
The fellows are all good natured
and all hope to get crack at KAISER
Bill" / was surprised to see the
spirit manifested after enduring the
hardships etc. that we had to go
through at Columbus. Nothing was
prepared for the bunch that was there
and so a lot of them had to look out
for themselves. All lodge rooms,
hotels, public places and private
homes were utilized to find accommo-
dations for the fellows that swarmed
there day after day. / think it was
wonderful the way the fellows took
hold of the call. 1t certainly showed
that there is a lot of red blood in the
fellows veins when they offer their
civilian lives to fight for "God and
Humanity" as they did. don't think
our forefathers have got anything on
us. Do you? The weather here is
fierce. Sometimes twenty-eight be-
low and lots of snow. / never saw
so much snow in all my life. Most
of the fellows in this camp have had
a thorough introduction to the snow
shovel by this time. 1t is a novelty
for some Of the fellows from the
south, but the novelty has worn off.
l imagine this will be bad place to
drill when the spring thaw arrives.
The soil is heavy clay of darker
soil than we have around Paw Paw.
/ have been told that this camp COM
prises some of the finest farming
land in this territory.
Our eats are pretty good and the
officers fine scouts. Most of them
are young fellows and when off duty
come around and ioin our games. l
think it shows the right spirit in
managing a bunch of fellows like this
and they get along much better. In
case bunch "get it in" fol gay
they can make things mighty inter-
esting for him.
Everything is O. X. with me and
am getting along fine. TIE little
iriils we had at home in the Home
Guards" helped some in getting start
I'd. Give my regards 10 all the boys
At home.

SNOW here long though, for there are
thousands of men shovelling it into
mule wagons and it is drawn away.
Everything is systematized until
every enlisted man and many officers
has something to do every minute.
