Answer to Christmas Roll Call All

The Christmas roll call of the Amer

Spouse to this message should be uni
versal 1t should come from every man,
woman and child in the country. All
that is needed in a heart and a dollar.
The war has left world filled with
ruin. Peace must restore, rebuild, re-
construct, recreate what war has de-
stroyed. More than that, for hundreds
Of millions Of human beings, rescued
from social slavery and political bond
age, there must be revealed new
ideals, efficient methods, sufficient or
ganization.
AS the army and navy were the will
of the nation modified for victory in
war, so Is the Red Cross the soul of
the nation modified for service In
peace.
Even after the formal terms of peace
are signed Ii will take months, even
years, for our present work to be COM
pleted. The sober task of withdrawal
cannot keep pace with the tense strain
Of the accomplishment when first We
rushed our mighty army across the
water to save the liberty Of the world.
We have two and quarter millions
of men overseas, flung there with I'M

times as long to bring them back. So
long as one regiment remains, the Red
Cross, as always, WILL STAND BY.
All over our land there are soldiers
homes in need of information Of coun-
sci, of sympathy and comfort. Until
the boys come home, until all these
families are reunited, the Red Cross,
as usual, WILL STAND BY.
On hundred hard-fought fields
there are heroes graves to be identi-
fed, marked and honored-and here
at home are thousands of hearts to
be comforted by the knowledge Of
where their loved ones are sleeping.

GRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Try Grandmother's Old Favorite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded. streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to get
this mixture was to make IL at home,
which Is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
pbur Compound" You will get large
bottle Of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition OF other ingredients.
at very little cost Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as 1t does IL so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with IL and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears. and after another APP
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy and
you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound Is a delightful
toilet requisite. IL is not intended for
the cure. mitigation or prevention %

Saving Cars Aurochs.

Kartsoff, former master of the hunt
for Emperor Nicholas, who now adj
ministers the formerly imperial do
mains at CATCHING, the residence of
the Dowager Empress Marie, has taken
measures to prevent the destruction of
even surviving aurochs, the only Eu-
ropean bison now known with certain
ty to exist in Russia. Until lately a
large herd was maintained in Nicholas
vast forest at Bieloviesh, White Rus
STA, ten from which were sent to
Gatchina before the wal. When the
Germans occupied Bieloviesh they
killed and canned hundreds of aurochs.
1t is not known If any survive at Bic
loviesh, but before the killing two
were presented to the Stockholm Skan-
sen park. After the revolution, the
Gatchina populace organized an au-
rochs' hunt, considering the beasts
imperial" and therefore fair game.
They killed three. NJ. Kartsoff's meas
ures aim at preserving the remainder.

SPORT ONLY FOR STRENUOUS
happening DeviIfish Differs Some
what From Pastime So Much Be-

The extraordinary shape, huge size,
and vast power of the big devilfsh, or
manta, give him an evil reputation,
which is heightened by his black color

off on anything touching 1t. Kneeling
on one of the devilfish when 1t was
drawn up on the sand l arose with my
knee completely blackened. The skin
is not only very tough, but is also very
rough, being covered, like that of an
old shark, with dermal denticles which
scarify the skin If a naked arm or leg
is drawn across it. The big mouth is
practically toothless, entirely so as re-
CARDS the upper jaw, while the lower
Jaw has a small dental plate which
differs in the two sexes. In spite of
it's size the manta is in no way dan

Humility Is called a virtue. 1t Is so
unless carried too far. A nan is

ly to be thought of little worth. The
unduly humble man viii lack the
strength of character needed for suc-

sponsible positions. While too great

UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA
Survey REPORT

Nevada needs to take the control
OF its University out of politics." de-
clares the United States Bureau of
Education, of the Department of the
Interior, in its report, just published,
OF the survey of the University of
Nevada, made last year at the request
of the Nevada Legislature. Until it
Toes so, the report points out, mo
permanent improvement in the rela-
tons between the University and its
constituency may be expected, nor
will the University be able to furnish
the leadership which the State re-
quires." Latest advices from the State
are that the bureaus counsel is to be
followed and that steps have been
taken to free the University from
partisan political influence, says the
departments bulletin.
Contrary to the practice in most of
the states, the University of Nevada
is controlled by a board of regents
consisting of five members, elected at
a general election, for short terms, on
party tickets. The survey report in
dorses appointment of regents by the
Governor, with confirmation by the
Senate, as against popular election. 1t
emphasizes the desirability of long
terms. with few appointments by any
single Governor, and security of re-
gents from removal for political rea-
sons. 1t declares:
1.-The weaknesses of popular election
must already be painfully apparent to
the intelligent citizens of Nevada. The
drawback which overshadows all
others is that the University is thus
drawn unavoidably into the turmoil of
partisan politics. The University is
not on such occasions a major politi-
cal issue, however. As far as its man
agement is an issue at all, it is dis
tinctly a minor issue.
"A university should have nc con
nection with nor inclination toward
any political party. II it is a question
of reviewing carefully the acts or the
competency of members of the board,
the objection Immediately arises that
these matters never are, and cannot
be, weighed in the heat OF partisan
conflict. If the State desires to regis
ter its opinion on the amount of sup
port the institution should receive, it
is not necessary to vote on the regents
to do SO.
1T may also be very strongly urged
that popularity elected boards do not
in the long run command ability of as
high an order as boards chosen by
other methods. Few men of the type
required for the performance of the
duties of regents will, of their own
initiative, engage in the disagreeable
business of a campaign for the sake
of the opportunity to render a difficult
public service. The men who should
sit on state boards of regents should
be sought. The Office of regent then
becomes a post of honor bestowed for
distinguished merit and integrity-a
post which no citizen, however emil
nent, can refuse to accept. Several
states have organized their university
boards of regents so hat membership
of them is regarded in this light.
Nothing less will permanently assure
to state universities the enlightened
government which such important en-
terprises require"
