Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very care
fully, if you want to keep your hair
looking its best. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp. makes
the hair brittle ana ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teasnoonfuls will
cleanse the hair ana scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich. creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing ev-
cry particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair 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 mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap,
and few ounces will supply every
member of the family for months

KEYSTONE STATE
GIVES TO NAVY
Over 10000 Men Taken From
the Draft List to Go to
the Sea Service

Pennsylvania has sent 1890 men
the United States Navy or Marine
Corps, according to figures compil-
ed by Major W. G.. Murdoch, chief
draft officer for this State. This is
total greater than the last big
movement to Camp Lee, the largest
single movement this year.
Major Murdock's figures show that
$500 of the 1917 class and 2,S0O of
the 1918 class We're released to
either the Navy or the Marine Corps.
In Philadelphia alone there were
1850 of the 1917 class and $50 of
this years class given releases so
that they might go to the sea serv-
ice.
The quotas for the 500 men to be
sent to Syracuse on August for
special training as guards at ports
of embarkation will be taken from
Camp Meade territory, owing to
traffic conditions.
The movements to Camps Custer
and Sherman are now under way
and men are being made ready to
start for Camp Wadsworth Monday.
Major Murdock has issued a cir
cular calling attention of all local
boards to the difference between
slackers, delinquents and deserters.
A Stacker is officially defined as "one
who wilfully fails to register" and
a delinquent as "a registrant who
fails to file his QUESTIONABLE or,
having filed his QUESTIONABLE, fails
to report for physical examination" "
A deserter is "one who has been re-
ported by this local board to the ad-
jutant general of the army on form
1O1S in accordance with section 14O,
s. S. r., or one who has been re-
ported to the adjutant general of
the army by the adjutant general of
the State through his delinquency"

Studio Quartet Heard in
Concert Under Auspices
of Scouts of Troop 20

Last evening in the Fifth Street
Methodist Church a fair-sized audi
ence was entertained in a delightful
manner by the Studio quartet, COM
posed of Miss Katherine Dubbs, So
prano; Miss Louise Baer, alto; John
Fisher, tenor, and Edward Hassler,
bass, accompanied by Mrs. John w.
Phillips, and assisted by Mr.. Malsh,
violinist, and Miss Lavinia Buck
walter, reader.
1t would indeed be difficult ac-
curately to determine which of the
solo numbers eXcelled. Most of the
numbers were old-tinIe ballads. The
program follows:
The Yellow Rose" quartet; read
ing, Miss Buckwalter solo, "Invic-
tus,' Mr., Hassler; violin solo, Cav
atina," Mr.. Malsh; solo, Tim
Rooney at the Fightin'," Mr.. Fisher;
Kentucky Babe quartet; Scout
ing" j. Fredrik Virgin; "Rainbows," 3"
Miss Baer; Who'll Buy My Laven-
der, Miss Dubbs; reading. Miss
Buckwalter; sextet from Lucia"
quartet.
The Raft "Cavatina" played by
Mr.. Malsh was beautifully given
and the concerted numbers partic-
ularly pleasing. The seXtet from
Lucia" was given in an enthusiasts
tic and finished manner.
One of the delightful features of
the entertainment were the readings
of little Miss Buckwalter. The scout
executive of the city, j. Fredrik
Virgin, gave an inspiring address on
Scouting" The entertainment was
preceded and followed by an ice
cream festival, largely attended.
The scouts of Troop 20, under whose
auspices the entertainment was Civ
en-, expressed their appreciation of
the generosity of the artists.

PARK EXTENSION
CONFERENCE ON
Shreineer Attending Impor-
tant Discussion of Details
of the Plans Today

An important conference regard
ing the plans for the Capitol Park
extension and the great monu-
mental viaduct at State street is
being held in New York city to-day
between George A. Shreiner, Super
intendent of Public Grounds and
Buildings, and Arnold w. Drummer
and w. H. Manning, who are design
ing the comprehensive treatment
which will make the environment of
! the Capitol the most attractive of
any State building.
1t is now proposed the viaduct
shall have approaches to Cameron
street and also along Royal Terrace
to Walnut street. The eastern ele-
vation of the bridge will put it prac-
tically on a level with Royal Ter
race. 1t is also suggested that the
entrances to the viaduct from Cam
eron street may be through the CEN
ter of the roadway, thus avoiding
consequential damages to surround
ing property. 1t is entirely proba-
, BILE that the viaduct will be at least
twenty-five feet higher at Royal
Terrace than the present level of
| State street at that point.
Other matters to be considered are
the building lines in Walnut, Third
and North streets. With respect to
the first two streets the lines have
practically been established, but it
is proposed to establish a new build
ing line on the north side of North
street, about fifteen feet north of
the present building line. OF course,
this would not mean the removal of
buildings at the present time, but
would provide that when new build
ings are erected they. must be To-
Gated on the new line so that the
street can eventually be widened to
conform to the other streets sur
rounding the Capitol.
incidentally, the matter of the
railroad arrangement on the fringe
of the park will be considered and
in view of the proposed accommo-
dation of the various lines in one
union freight station here it is
thought a similar arrangement may
be made as to a union passenger sta
tion between Walnut and Market
streets, to accommodate all the lines
entering Harrisburg 1t is believed
that some such arrangement is in
evitable in view of the Surroundings
of the Capitol and the erection of the
great viaduct at State street. a
union station as proposed would be
in entire harmony with the whole
plan.
Another thing to which the city
will be urged to give prompt atten-
ton is the establishing. of a zone be
tween Walnut and North streets,
through the Paxton Creek valley, in
which all buildings shall be limited
to given height.
All buildings still standing in the
park extension area are to be re-
moved without delay.

District Boards
and Coal Miners

State draft headquarters to-day
issued a circular calling upon all
district boards Ito thoroughly in
vestigate and exercise their soundest
judgment in granting deferred classi-
fication" to coal miners. Boards are
reminded that they may reopen d
case up to the very hour and day of
induction and may reconsider and
reclassify men from their districts.
The headquarters quotes a telegram
from the office of the Provost Mar
shall General stating We must look
to district boards almost entirely to
adjust the needs of the Army with
industrial requirements" and urges
that cases of coal miners be given
careful attention so that the output
of coal shall not be curtailed.

When Dad Tichacek advised his boys
to marry good cooks, their mother, who
died just recently said she'd help
them
The boys will have a hard time get

girls sit around IN the parlor and tell
how well they cook and keep house
but most Of them don't know beans
about cooking good kolatch and stru-
