HELP WIN THE WAR
BY SAVING OLD PAPER
Perform a Real Service by Con-
serving Materials

Just now We hear a great deal about
the necessity OF conserving coal. con-
serving sugar, conserving flour and
various other articles which are re-
quired by the government for war
uses. But equally important as coal
and sugar and flour is the conserva-
ton of paper.
The governments requirements for
all kinds of paper are increasing rap
idly and must be supplied. The COM
modities which enter into the manu-
tacture of paper are required for war
purposes. BY not wasting paper,
therefore, we release a large quantit.'
or these materials for making muni-
tions and gases which our men "over
there" must have.
Paper requires transportation space.
BY not wasting paper in your home,
in conjunction with countless other
homes, you release thousands of
freight cars for war purposes.
Above all. do not burn your waste
paper. 1t is little less than treason
to do this when paper is so scarce.
And do not light a bonfire in which
there IL wood or old rags or paper.
Taner and rags are two of the most
impoI tant essentials in the manufac-
ture OF paper. See that all this waste

PERMITS SUPPLIES

President Wilson Lifts Ban Against
Convict Labor.

President Wilson yesterday issued
an executive order authorizing the
purchase of war supplies from any
State. county or municipal penal in
stitution. for the period of the war
only and with this important pro-
Viso:
That the compensation to be paid
for such supplies shall, so far as
possibbl, be the prevailing price
for like commodities in the vicinity
OF the institution furnishing them"
Inability OF the government in the
present emergency to procure its
needed supplies wholly from pri-
vately owned or conducted factor
les not employing prison labor. is
given as the reason for the order. 1t
further provides that the pro-rata
cost of maintaining the prison in
mates employed upon war work
shall be deducted from their wages
and adds:
Compensation and hours OF labor
for inmates OF any institution above
specified working upon such sup
plies shall be based upon the stand
ard hours and wages prevailing in
the vicinity in which the institu-
tion is located.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did IL ever occur TO you that
every movie actress you have seen
has lovely hair. while the most
popular count their Curls as their
chief beauty? In fact. many are
leading ladies just because Of their
attractive looks Inquiry among
them dIscloses the fact that they
bring out all the natural beauty Of
their hair by careful thsmpooins,
not with any soap or makeshift,
but with a simple mixture by put
ting a teaspoonful Of Csnthro1
(Which they get from the drug
gist) in a cup Of hot water and Sp-
ply this instead of soap. This full
cup Of shampoo liquid is enough 80
Il is easy to apply Il 20 all the hair
instead OF Just the top Of the head.
After its use the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color. Dsndrufr, eS-

AMERICAN GUNNERS
ABUSE POOR WHALES
Very Often Mistake a Sea Mon
ster for a Sub.
Pity the poor whales!

Pity the poor whales!
Senator Thompson. of Kansas. who
has recently returned from a visit to
the front In France. told the sorrow
full tale Of their present plight to the
Senate today, and there was hardly
= dry eve in the body. Senator
Thompson was the first man to CT
attention Of the Senate TO the fact
that whales, too, are sufferers by
reason Of the submarine warfare, and
to the surprised and sorrowful look
in their eyes when they are mistaken
for a German U-boat and receive an
s-inch shell in their midrift from the
gun Of a Yankee gun crew.
Senator Thompson also brought back
message from Admiral Rodman,
who is In command OF the American
battleships with the Grand Flee.
when left Admiral Rodman at
the Grand Fleet on AuSust r. Haid
Senator Thompson, II asked II there
was any message / could take for
him to The Secretary of the Navy or
II there was anything we could do
for him in Congress, and he replied
mot a thing. Tell the Secretary
we have everything we ne"d over mere
and that everything IS running per-
fectly smooth. and for Gods sake to
let us alone"
Secretary Of the Navy Daniels had
hearty laugh over the message
brought back by Senator Thompson.
"Rodman is a jolly Kentuckian," he
said. I'VE all know him nHd are glad
to get such messages from him.

Members Of the Senate Committee
on Military Affairs were assured ny
Gen. March at their weekly conference
that stories OF great unpublished
American casualties overseas were
wholly false, and that all casualties
among the A. Z. F were given TO the
public a promptly as the cables could
transmit them. Gen March told the
committee that because wounded
Americans had been taken to widely
scattered hospitals. many OF them
being brigaded with allied troops, con-
siderable difficulty was being eNpe-
rienced in compiling the lists. Com
plants received Ivy Senators from
soldiers invalided because Of wounds,
who charged delay in receiving their
pay while detached from their com
mands. were brought TO Gen. March s
attention. Some Senators declared
that they had received thousands OF
complaints not only from the men
themselves. but from their families.
Gen. March assured the Senators that
everything was hC.u= done to eNpe-
dite the psymcr' ri these men.
The following cement IS au-
thorized by the War Department.

LABEL ANOTHER STORY
"MADE IN GERMANY"

One more anti-English story has
been labeled Made in Germany"
The story referred to is the one
that Great Britain has never paid to
the United States the $15. 900
awarded by the Geneva tribunal in
tho settlement Of the Alabama"
claim.
In refutation Of the story the mes
sage of President Grant to Congress
December l, 1873, is quoted: The
money awarded tC the United
States" the message reads. by the
tribunal at Geneva was paid hv Her
Majesty's government few days in
advance Of the time when it would
have become payable according to the
terms of the treaty" was

APPROVE EXEMPTION
FOR LIBERTY BONDS
Senate Amends Revenue Bill to
Aid Campaign.

The Senate yesterday passed the
Liberty Bond tax exemption bill as
amended by that body. 1t will go
to conference today and will become
a law in ample time to clear the
way for the next Liberty bond drive
and TO stimulate the entire market
for that class of government secur-
tiles.
There is hardly a chance for dis
agreement by the conferees on the
bill as the sole Senate amendment
was to strike out the provision
which amended the Trading with
the Enemy Act" to give the Presi-
dent power to investigate. regulate
or prohibit any transactions in for
eign exchange or in bonds or certi-
ficates. the export OF gold. etc, be-
tween the United States and any for
eign country.
